Summer is in full swing! There has been a lot going on at the Turner/Uecker residence.
Edward finally got tired of working 10 hour days, and revoked his waiver. He will now be working 5 days a week. Not sure what days he will have off yet, I'm going to keep my fingers crossed and pray that we get at least a day a week together. We shall see.
I took a personal day on Tuesday and got a lot of errands finished. We re-registered for our pots and pans (since the ones I picked out were discontinued, just my luck.) We picked out our tuxedos, and the boys will look quite strapping if I do say so myself! We played a little miniature golf (I let Edders win, of course) and then watched the Proposal (EXCELLENT movie)
As I said, busy busy busy! We still don't have the dress deal straightened out. Latest saga is that I got ahold of the seamstress Erin told me to go to in order to have the alterations paid by her, who proceeded to tell me how little time I'm actually giving her to do the major alteration needed. She then stated she had to check on something, and then she would call me back. That was on Saturday. Today is Thursday, no call. I left messages for her Monday, Tuesday, and yesterday, and called Erin yesterday as well. Still nothing. I'm getting a little peeved at all of this. I mean, we wouldn't be "short on time" if Erin would have ordered the dress I originally wanted in a timely manor! I mean, come on, 10 months for a dress?! Seriously.
Moving on. I guess there is nothing else to move on to! That's the best update I can give right now. There are calls to answer, and claims to be paid!!!

Grandmas really are the best ever...
I love my grandma. She is the best. She is always there to help, even when she knows its going to make her exhausted. For example, my entire wedding.
Grandma is getting up there in age. She has fought more illness than anyone else I know. She almost died on the operating table. Twice. She is a survivor of breast cancer, thyroid cancer, do I need to go on? I think not. She is strong. And Im lucky enough to have her on my side. Life is amazing :-)
Last night, my mother and I stopped by good ol' granny's house to talk about some serious issues I am having with my wedding gown. Those who know me well know that I freak out over the smallest things. If Im having what I think is a big problem, you better stay clear. Well, the place I went to get my dress ordered the wrong dress. Its a beautiful dress, and I actually got a much better deal seeing as how this dress is normally $1200. Great bargain, right? The issue is that it doesnt fit. The dress I wanted was a lace up back, this one is a zipper. Store cant take it back, Im stuck with the dress. What to do, what to do? Take it to granny. My grandma looked at the dress, looked at the extra material I had (thank goodness for matching shaws that come free!) and showed me how amazing my dress is going to look once we put a lace up back. So we are going to get the dress fixed. And I will look as amazing as is possible for a person such as myself. Grandma is amazing. She calmed the storm.
Yet another reason my grandmother is amazing. She did all of my flowers. I purchased silk flowers, she disassembled them, and rearranged them into the most beautiful bridal bouquet/bridesmaid bouquet/bouttaniers/coursages I have ever seen. Ever. Last night while we were talking, she said "Oh, I have a surprise for you!" We go downstairs, and she has a HUGE arrangement sitting on her table. She tells me, "I know you werent going to do any flowers in the church, but you have to have flowers in there!" This is the same arrangement that sat at the front of the church for my cousin's wedding last year. She was trying to sell it in a yardsale (which is totally NOT ok by me. Our Grandma made it, how many people have something in their house that was made by a person so close? Not many.) Grandma bought the arrangement she made just under a year ago back, and took it home for me to use in my wedding! We are going to take out the few pink flowers that are thrown in and replace them with some fall colors, and it will be brand new! I cant believe Amber was just going to get rid of them. Crazy. I dont think I could ever do that. Maybe Im just too sensitive.
And the final reason grandma rocks!
She gave me 10 bulbs for the most amazing flower ever. The Peruvian Daffodil. Gorgeous flower, but very delicate. She told me its about time for me to start my own flower garden. I may have to do that!
Talking with my grandma last night made me realize how lucky I am. I may have tons of things that arent going my way, but thats what life is about. I have the same blood running thru me that is in this amazing woman. Surely I can handle these small things if she can handle the big ones. Thanks grandma!!

Six Months?!
Its Official. We are under the six month mark. Less than two weeks until my bridesmaids order their dresses. My dress should be here any day. I'm not holding my breath for that one. Stupid Store.
I'm working the late shift tonight. Not so much fun. It is especially not fun because I am still exhausted from doing lawn work last night. I most definitely mowed the yard and did all of the edge work with the weed eater because Edward was not feeling on top of his game. Don't worry though, he sat outside and watched me. He is just so nice like that! :-)
So, Monday nights, CBS has an excellent selection of comedies. Last night, all four of their shows were new, and I seriously don't think I have ever laughed that much during a two hour time frame of watching TV. The writers for The Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother, Two and a Half Men, and Rules of Engagement are amazing! I don't know where they come up with their material, but it is genius! I wish I was that creative.
Well, I'm going to get to work and actually work now. Only 7.5 hours to go! Woo Hoo!

Working Until 7 is the Pits :-(
What more is there to say?! I have been sitting here trying to work, but its hot in here, its raining outside, and that combination just make me want to sleep!
10-7 again tomorrow too. At least Im with Liz for that one :-)
I have decided that we are going to do some yard work and go on a date this weekend. Im pretty excited about the beautification process of the house. Its fun for Edward and I to pick out the items we want to plant, and its fun to watch them grow. Im not excited about mowing the yard. Not fun at all! We need to get some dandelion killer. They have officially taken over our front lawn! We mowed it on Saturday, and by Sunday evening you couldnt even tell that we had touched it! Crazy.
Im thinking Im going to keep this one short and sweet. After all, I should be working hard!

Closer and Closer
Our wedding is creeping closer and closer to us. Today I put the deposit on the cabin we are going to be staying in. This is exciting! Its really happening.
I had my hair done today. I dyed it again (since I'm not cutting it, I figure color is a good change). The owner of the salon was there, and we started talking. She asked me who was doing my hair, and I told her somebody at the salon I was at. She asked who specifically, and I said whoever did the best job. I didn't think much of it at first, so I just kinda let it go. Well, she was getting her pedicure done while the dye was taking over my hair, and she looked up at me and said, "For your wedding you have to have the best. Here is what you should do. Bring me a picture of your dress, the veil, and a collage of the styles you like, and I will do your hair for you at no extra cost"
What?!!!?!??! The owner is going to do my hair? The only people's hair I've ever seen her working on are the rich Indian Hill people who require complete attention, and pay big bucks to have Cara do their hair. And I'm going to get her or my wedding day at no...extra...cost. My lucky day :-)
So that's where I am right now. Its starting to get late, and I'm pretty tired, so its off to bed for me. Hoping tomorrow continues this streak of luck! Well wishes to all!

Its been a while...
Wow. How long has it been since I've posted? I don't have anybody at work anymore to keep me on task with the blog world.
Wedding planning is coming along smoothly. We are still searching for a caterer, and have to get some random odds and ends. I have to finish paying everything off, and plan the little stuff. Its slowly but surely getting closer. I'm at just a little over seven months right now! I feel like Edward is starting to get more involved in everything too. I mean, he helped me pick out the cake topper a couple of weeks ago! I'm already pretty stoked about everything, but knowing that he wants to be involved just makes everything so much better.
Random side note: I get my braces off in 16 days, and counting.
On the other side of life, work is getting more and more stressful by the day. Honestly, I don't even know how some of my coworkers can handle it! Certain people here just get everything thrown on top of them. Not to mention the fact that other people, who don't have nearly as many responsibilities, screw everything up. I mean, come on, how hard is it to look at a claim before you pay it?!
While watching the news recently, Ive realized how scary this world truly is getting. People killing, disappearing, rode raged drivers that attack teenagers for driving too slowly (I for one am proud of that teen for not speeding like the majority of the people do). I mean, when will the insanity end? I'm afraid to drive a lot of places anymore. There are so many crazy people out there, if you don't watch out you could be a victim. I know you cant live your life in fear, but this is ridiculous.
Well, I wish I had some great words of wisdom to leave to the people who don't read this site, but alas, I will leave with no witty sign off. Thanks for reading and I look forward to posting again sometime in the not so distant future.

Counting Down the Days
I am officially in wedding planning mode. Sorry if I talk about it too much, but its less than 10 months away! I was looking at a common timeline of events yesterday. I thought I was so far ahead, and then I start looking at that and think "Holy crap, there is so much I hadnt thought about yet!" Bridal show at the end of this month. Im looking forward to that.
Tomorrow is our two year anniversary. I dont have any idea what I am going to do for him. He spoils me like none other, and honestly I have no idea how he does it!
On another note, I work the late shift today. When I left my house this morning, the roads were dry for the most part. I left the Orthodontist, it was just starting to snow. I look out the window now, and am about to burst into tears because the snow is everywhere. Stupid late shift.

Wouldn't it be nice if....
Wouldn't it be nice if:
*everyone had to work at the same degree of difficulty in order to get ahead.
*Parents didn't treat their children like princesses all the time and give them EVERYTHING they want, regardless of the cost. There is a difference between being spoiled and appreciating it, and being spoiled and wanting more all the time. Stupid people.
*Money grew on trees. Oh How I would be in heaven. And yet, some people would still not have enough. Its never enough, apparently.
*Everyone was pleasant on the phone. I understand that you have had a rough time too, but think about the fact that the person on the other end of the phone is a human being. Calling them names and cursing at them isn't going to solve anything any faster. Calm down before you call me. Thanks.
*People got what the deserved. I hate seeing good people, who help everybody they can, always getting screwed. Then on the other hand, you have greedy, lying, back stabbing people who will hurt anybody they can just to get ahead who get all of the bonuses. What the heck? How does that work out?
Now, I understand that patience is a virtue, and eventually you will be rewarded in a far better way than I can possibly imagine, but what about right now, right here? There are some people who may have not been ready to start a family, but things happen, and that was the best thing to ever happen to them (EVEN if it does mean tightening down on the budget). And then there are people who have a baby, and instead of making things work with what you have, you quit your job, you go to school, you don't change your lifestyle. That's healthy. Babies are supposed to make you grow up. Pretty sure that is the opposite of what people like that are doing. And lastly, you have great people, who would love nothing more than to have a family. They cant. They spend tons and tons of money to try everything in the book to start a family, and nothing works. Then you have people getting pregnant just to get the tax credit, or even worse, getting pregnant and having an abortion. Why do things work out like this?
Sorry about the venting, there are a lot of things bugging me right now. This is just a fraction. So here is to the world flipping, and for people soon getting what they truly TRULY deserve.

It's the Holiday Season!
We have started to receive cards at work. I love Christmas cards. I enjoy getting a good variety of them too. You have to have the inspirational ones, the funny ones, and all of the sincere ones in order to make it truly feel like Christmas. With the impending weather of doom, it just makes it feel more like Christmas too. I would LOVE winter if it weren't for the horrible road conditions. If we could just have heated roads. ODOT, get on that, ASAP.
I finished up Ed's Christmas shopping over the weekend. Spent more money than we should have. He is still spending. We are still supposed to do something for each of our grandparents, not to mention the gift cards. Oh my.
Today was a long day at work. I spent the entire day fixing one person's account. Repetitive, boring, and above all insane. Crazy VP's and CFO's. Grr.
Tonight I'm going home, doing some laundry, and either baking cookies or cooking a nice meal. Its been a while since I have had a nice, hearty meal. We have the stuff for it, just never the time. That may be my mission tonight. We will see how that turns out. That's it for me!

Coughy McCougherson go HOME!!!
DON'T COME TO WORK IF YOU ARE SICK! End of discussion. Because you were sick, 4 other people are going to be sick. Grrrr....
Moving on...my poor friend and her boyfriend ended their year long relationship out of nowhere. She is totally torn up about it. She didn't even see it coming. He is having some family crisis and he cant even explain it to her. That's a real gentleman right there. Break somebody's heart and not tell them why. Jerk. I've decided I need to take a trip to see her. Its long overdue for a road trip to C-bus. Soon friend, very soon.
I guess I need to go work on the crummy DWR. Boo for other customers on Thursday! Hope everyone else's Thursday was a million times better than mine.

The Onion Rings, the Phone Makes Me Cry
I was reminded of a very important lesson over the past two days. Once a problem, always a problem.
Some people are so manipulative that they can convince you that you are wrong in a situation, regardless of whether or not its their fault. For example, I have this "Friend" that insists that I am the bad friend because she is not going to be standing front and center at my wedding. This isn't the first time that she has had issues with not being the center of attention. Quite honestly, she should be happy she was even invited. This reminds me of times in high school and college.
This particular person was the baby of her family. Always in the spotlight. In high school, she couldn't stand the fact that I was better than her in choir. I would sing the tenor part because I could hear the harmony, and she would try (unsuccessfully) to tell the choir teacher that it was actually her that was doing the part. Childish. Not to mention the fact that there was this guy that I really REALLY liked in high school. As soon as she found out about it, they were flirting like crazy. Uh, rude.
In college, I started dancing. Now, she has a lot better figure than me, and I will be the first one to let her know. She is the one that got me started dancing. I started to get really focused and dedicated. I was actually starting to get better than her. What did she do? She played the weight card. "Ashley I know that you love this, but do you think you are actually going to be able to get to a higher level at your weight? And you obviously aren't losing any. Maybe you should just quit." Uh, RUDE!
So I came to the amazing realization that if a "friend" makes you feel like crap, they aren't a person who deserves to be in your life. It sucks realizing this, but she is like a vampire. She sucks the life out of you. The only way she feels good about herself is by slamming others, and killing everything about them. Many people have tried to tell me this, and for some reason I was never able to grasp it. Its a shame. I could have been a much happier person.
Thats about it. Official countdown: 9 days til my birthday, 14 days to Christmas!!!

Its the Holiday Season!!!
This weekend was a very busy weekend in the Turner/Uecker household. We started out the weekend with some slightly good slightly disappointing news. Ed's schedule changed for the week due to maintenance at the store. So this is the first week since we moved into that house that I will get to spend the majority of the week with him in the bed next to me, instead of spending the majority of nights by myself. I think he kind of enjoyed working the day shift yesterday. Now he doesn't feel like his entire day off today is wasted. I'm trying to convince him to switch to days. We'll see how that goes.
For some reason everyone is really dragging today. I'm blaming it on the air again. Walk into the building, fall asleep. That's productive.
On the bright side, I completed most of my Christmas shopping. I would love to be able to get Edward a little more, but financially that doesn't look like an option. He is offering to give me money, but I don't see how that's fun. That would be like me saying "Here, I'm going to pay you to get me presents" No fun.
The countdown is on!! 11 Days to my birthday, 16 days til Christmas!

Allow me to Exaggerate a Memory or Two...
What a day today has been. I have been slowly doing my section of DWR trying to make it last the day. It made it until 3:30pm. Not too shabby.
People at work have this new fascination for sending me forwards. While I enjoy getting the nice ones about friendship and such, there are some people who need to chill. I get one from some people every ten minutes. Now dont get me wrong, I dont work 100% of the time, but how can you get any work at all done when you are sending messages like that that often? Yeah, you cant.
We have been trying to figure out a little bit more about the wedding. I have been toying with the idea of having it catered. I just have to figure out how much of a price difference it is going to be. I cant afford thousands of dollars on food. I will have to keep checking and comparing caterers and the cost of doing it myself.
We are going to have a big weekend this weekend. Tomorrow I am going to Milford High School's craft show, and then Edward and I are going to finish all of our Christmas shopping, with the exception of each other. Then on Sunday, we are supposed to be going to a family reunion type thing in New Richmond. I feel that family reunions are better off in the summer, when there are no holidays around that you are going to see the same exact people in two weeks for. Just my thought.
That's about all for me! Have a great weekend.

Cough Drops and Hand Sanitizer
Its that time of the year. People are getting their colds, sneezing and coughing all over their hands...not washing them afterwards. Gross.
I feel that UMR would be a much better environment if we had windows that would open. I mean, come on. This building hasn't been aired out once in the how ever many years it has been in existence. No wonder people are constantly getting headaches and colds. You would think they would want their employees in a location that would keep you healthy. Healthy employees=Happy employees. Happy employees are also people who aren't on overload from the amount of work given to them. But that's a totally different story.
It seriously amazes me the amount of people that don't wash their hands in this office! I feel like I need a personal washing station at my desk. Everything I touch is filled with ickyness. People don't wash their hands as they are coming out of the bathroom. That's right. Use the bathroom, the most germ filled place in the building, wipe yourself, and then walk out the door, forcing everyone else in the building to be in your yuckiness. I feel like a 3 year old with all the Ickyness words I'm using.
I suppose I'm finished ranting about germs and uncleanliness. I have to get back so I can take the wonderful calls from 5-7!
I feel that UMR would be a much better environment if we had windows that would open. I mean, come on. This building hasn't been aired out once in the how ever many years it has been in existence. No wonder people are constantly getting headaches and colds. You would think they would want their employees in a location that would keep you healthy. Healthy employees=Happy employees.

How Its Been So Long, Im so Sorry I've Been Gone!
So, its been a while, a LONG while since I have posted here. I figured I could get it back and running. A lot has changed since I last blogged under this account.
I now work at UMR, and apparently have nothing better to do with my time, so I will start blogging. Im planning a wedding to an AMAZING man. He officially proposed on 11-29-2008. We will be getting married in the afternoon on 10-31-08.
We also just moved into a new house. We now live in Amelia, OH. It is a two story house, 3 bedrooms, and is perfect for us!
Thats about all I have for now. Per a friend's request, I suppose I will continue to update this blog, and hopefully get it back to the point where people actually read it again. Until next time. :-)

And This Long Line of Cars, Is All Because of Me
Everything is piling down on top of me. I dont know who to trust, who to talk to, I dont know anything anymore. I thought I could trust some people, but its like they dont even want to tlak to me anymore. In a way its kinda depressing. I dunno. Im coming home this weekend to work. Coming back every weekend from here untill I get out of school. Somewhat excited, kinda sad all at the same time. Well, I kinda just needed to vent a little, its all out now, so Im gonna go. Love you all, and later.

Graduation
Today was AWESOME...I have a few things I really REALLY want to remember about today, so I am going to do a list type thing.
1. A certain somebody was eyeing me up, at least thats what Jaci says. I can only hope.
2. It is a lot of fun to dance with new people, but dancing with people that know your abilities is so much more fun.
3. Not all things are as they seem. Just because a guy acts gay and tells you he is going to a gay bar with a close female friend of his, it does NOT mean he is gay. There is always a HUGE possibility that she is a lesbian, and he is only going for Moral support.
4. When your teacher is the photographer nad your name is caled to receive your award, rather than handing the camera off to somebody else, you should definitely pull a "Im going to take a picture of us myself. Now smile, and click!" Those are the times that you share that make your life fun.
Ok, the most important thing that I learned today is that if a friend tells you to talk to a great guy because you have a better relationship wiht him than anyone else there, talk to him. He wouldnt tell you the things that he does unless you are truly a friend, and maybe something more. Sometimes, your friends are right...believe them when they say "Its his loss if he doesnt like you. If he turns you down, he is crazy."
On that note,
Goodbye and Goodnight.

"I Just Dont Know What to do With Myself"
Ok, so as the title suggests, life is going crazy. I am not able to talk to the people I want to talk to, and forced to talk to the people I dont want to. Why must everything be flip flopped?
