Just a quick update

Well I have not posted for a few days. Sorry. I have a bunch of exciting things going on this weekend that I will definitely post about next week. In case you have not bought my present yet, my birthday is on Tuesday! Wednesday night I got a haircut, and then I met up with my friend Lauren at Bourbon Barrel. We had a lot of fun with her co-workers and her boyfriend. It was a late night, but worth it! I met some great people and hope to hang out with them again soon! The rest of the week has been pretty uneventful. Tonight I have to do homework. I took Sarge back to the vet today, and his ear is almost completely better, but they put some more medicine in his right ear just to be safe. Luckily we do not have to go back for another check-up, unless something seems to be wrong. I am looking forward to my favorite brother coming home this weekend to help me celebrate my birthday! Like I said exciting things are going on this weekend so I will update again once the events are over! Hope you all have a great weekend!!! So long for now...

Oh SARGE!!

So I am not a happy camper this morning. Last night I was getting ready for bed. By the time I was getting ready for bed, I was already really tired, because I had stayed up a little later than normal anyways. So needless to say I was ready to climb in bed and go to sleep. As I was pulling my covers back, I realized they were a little damp. Immediately I flashed back to when I got home and Sarge was laying on my bed. Now I suppose I should backtrack and fill you in on the 'health problems' Sarge has been having. Last week I took Sarge in to the Vet for his yearly check-up and an hour later we left with a bunch of different bottles to help his ear infection, his 'allergies', and the dry skin that he had. One of the bottles was for doggie Prednisone, and the Vet warned that it would make him have to go the bathroom more frequently. We definitely noticed that he was wanting to go outside more often, but he really hadn't had any accidents inside... Until he decided to wet on my bed. So back to 10pm last night, I was hoping that it was just my duvet and its cover that needed to be washed, but each layer that I ripped off my bed, was wet as well. So now after work, I get to take my duvet back to the cleaners and wash all of my sheets. Needless to say I did not have a 'backup' comforter or anything last night, so I just had my fleece tie blanket which is normally warm, but it must have been cool in the house last night because I did not move once in the night, because I was so cold, I was trying to conserve the little heat that was under the blanket. At one point in the night I entertained crawling across to Bryce's bed, but don't worry Bryce, I did not do that since your sheets are clean, and you are going to sleep in them this weekend. So I will bundle up tonight, and the next few nights, until my blankets are all clean. I do want to backtrack to the point where I mentioned that the vet said Sarge could have allergies. Now those of you who know my Dad, will know that he thought this was the craziest thing that he has ever heard. He exact words were "Allergies?! It's just a dog. Allergies?!" But for being 'just a dog' he sure does like spending time with him! I felt like I should add a picture to this post, but since I don't have a picture of Sarge readily available, I will post this one that is NOT him, but looks similar. So long for now...

And so it begins...

So like everyone else says, I have decided to start a blog. Now you may think, "What? Ashley is boring. Why would she start a blog?" and that is exactly what I thought when the idea was first brought to me, but honestly I can be as interesting as I make myself appear... Currently I am typing this blog instead of working. For those of you who may not know, I am a Career Agent for Innovative Staff Solutions in out Clinton office. My office specifically hires people to work at the RR Donnelley plant here in Clinton. It is not exactly my life's calling, but it pays the bills for now. I am going to school at night at Richland Community College. My major is Special Education at Richland, and I hope to specialize in Early Childhood age. I am a long ways off for right now, but I can only take so many classes since I work full time as well. This semester I have 2 classes right now, and a 3rd one that starts in March. I am taking Intro to Applied Statistics, and Technology in the Classroom so far, and if I happen to start the 3rd class, it will be Psychology. If the work load is proving to be too much with my first 2 classes, then I will not start the 3rd class, and just take it next semester. I am taking Technology in the Classroom with my dear Mother. Now, why we thought this would be a good idea is beyond me. We are both pretty stubborn, and can be very emotional for no reason, so 2 weeks in to the class there have already been tears, yelling, hugging, and making up. So we shall see how this turns out. The main problem with the frustration on my Mom's end, is that she does not think she is very good with the computer. Now granted, I have grown up using technology, and I am much more confident in my skills than she is, but man give yourself some credit Mom! You are so much better than you think in your head, and that is what is setting you back!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!! Well this ought to do it for my first post. Now hopefully exciting things will happen to me so I can blog about them! If worse comes to worse, I can always just blog about recipes and food that I have tried!!!! So long for now...
