Horray, Fall is here! My most favorite time of the year! I can’t wait for the leaves to change to beautiful yellow, orange and red masterpieces! And not to mention Halloween! Well, well, well..I obviously need to work on my Blogging skills. The main reason why I haven’t blogged in so long is because I feel I have so much I’d like to blog about, yet when it comes to me actually blogging, I go blank. Go figure! But really, so much has happened. If I didn’t put off blogging so badly I wouldn’t have such humongous updates to deal with. Well, here we go!

New Car! (Click to enlarge)

I bought a car a couple of weeks ago off Craigslist! It’s a bright red 1993 Toyota Tercel with 133,000 miles on it (which is nothing for a Toyota car!). I know it’s kinda old, but I think it’s absolutely adorable! We got an amazing deal for it- $1400 for the car plus 4 new snow tires. I’t sos much fun to drive around! Compared to my last car, a 1999 Hyundai Accent, I like my Toyota a lot more. Andy says it fits me perfectly and calls it my little Ladybug ;) I really want to get a ladybug antenna ball now! I’ve already put some extra money into it (new stereo and speakers, steering wheel cover, exterior paint wax, etc.) and could not be happier!

Gray! (Click to enlarge)

Last week Andy and I brought the kittens to PetSavers in the valley to be fixed. All went well except Gray came home with a terrible bladder infection. I went ahead and took him to the vet the very next day and he was put on some antibiotics. Let me tell you, he is a horror to give medicine to. He hates it so much. The first couple of days he would try to spit it out. By now he has become pretty used to it, but he’s still a pain to administer the drugs to. I also went ahead and got some pain medicine for all 3 kitties. The vet was shocked that the spay / neuter clinic didn’t send me home with any. Overall the bill was around $150. Gray is still having a hard time going to the bathroom but he has shown improvement. Hopefully by next week he will be cleared up fully.

I’ve always told myself that I’d never get a Tumblr. Well, I caved and got one. I think this is going to be another reason for me to put off blogging, but let’s hope I don’t let it become like that! It’s pretty fun to share things on there..a lot better than Twitter if you ask me! But I’m not going to let that keep me from using Twitter either..even though my Twitter account has become my “location feed”. Anyway, if you’d like to become friends with me on Tumblr, my URL is ambrosity.tumblr.com. Go ahead and add me if you will :)

In less than two weeks (October 4th) I’ll be flying to Indiana for my brother’s wedding. He’s getting married on October 9th so that means I’ll be in Indiana for almost a week. I got my bridesmaid dress a few weeks ago and it’s absolutely stunning! I’m really excited to wear it (and of course for the wedding as well!). After the wedding I’ll be driving back to Texas with my grandparents. I’ve missed my friends and family so much and I can’t wait to see them! I’ll probably end up staying for a couple of weeks, but I’m sure I’ll start missing Andy so bad I’ll want to come back to WA pretty soon after. I guess we will see when I get there! Oh, and lets not forget I will be bringing home my beloved Maximus with me!! HORRAY! I miss him dearly. So there is so much that I have ahead of me..and I’m definitely ready to take on everything!

Cute Home-Made Tying Storage Box (Click to enlarge)

It’s been over 3 months since I last blogged. Much has happened since then, with the biggest being my complete move to the great state of Washington. I now live in the city of Spokane which is a wonderful and beautiful city. I didn’t realize how much I hated living in huge city until I came here. Spokane is like a big city in a small town..with a population of around 205,000 people, yet all of the great entertainment and nightlife a big city would have. Back in Houston you could not go anywhere without sitting in traffic for 2 hours of your busy life, and on top of that there is a whopping 2.3 million people that live there, making it the 4th largest city in the United States. I absolutely love it here. There are parks all over the place. We actually live 2 houses down from one of them and I don’t think I have ever seen so many evergreen trees in one place. It’s amazing! There’s also a major park smack dab in the middle of downtown called Riverfront Park. Andy and I live about 5 minutes from there. It not only is a park, but is also a small amusement park. There’s an IMAX theater as well as other small attractions. All of it is situated right on Spokane Falls. The river looks awesome, especially when the water is high. Over all I absolutely love the area.

One of the drawbacks of me moving so early is the fact that I am basically living out of my two suitcases. My mother has slowly been sending me things. I received my computer, bedsheets and some more clothes just a few days ago. Surprisingly it only cost $13 to ship with FedEx. Since it’s so cheap I’ll definitely be asking her to send me some more stuff!

My brother is getting married on October 12th. The wedding is taking place in Fort Wayne, Indiana which means I have to take a plane for a weekend out there since I’m a bridesmaid. Thankfully I can take advantage of this opportunity and ride back with my grandparents to Texas so I can fly from there with 2 more suitcases filled to the brim with more of my fabulous junk! not only that, but I will have my cat Maximus with me as well :) I miss him so much!

Since I have my PC back, I definitely will be updating more often. I have the chance to finally update many of the pages on my site that have been broken for months. I can assure you I have a huge to-do list when it comes to my little abode on the net. As for now, I will just take it slowly and get things done little by little.

2010 AIDS Walk Houston

This Sunday is the 2010 AIDS Walk Houston, happening downtown. I wasn’t sure if I was going to do it this year due to my job but it turns out I can. I’ll have to be up by 7AM Sunday (HISS at DST on Saturday night!) to get ready and head downtown to participate! I’m somewhat excited because this will be my first benefit walk I’ll be in. The team I joined as currently raised $500! A good thing is that today is my last day of work for the next 9 days due to Spring Break. I’m definitely excited for that! I’ll also be taking care of my grandmother’s cats from this upcoming Wednesday to April 8th. That means if I decide to stay over at her house for a few days, I will have it all to myself. It’s going to be nice! :D
