hello ..anyone? I've not used this in a reeeeeally long time steadily.
But i'm going to start crafting and selling stuff I make and the people on livejournal inspire me:) especially tshirt surgery and stuff. I check it all the time..i just don't write in this very much. Myspace kinda killed the livejournal star in my life for a while....and for that i'm sad...b/c when you blog on there, it just causes too much drama b/c i don't know anyone personally who has livejournal so it works out.......
bye.

| MY CLOTHES |
[22 Feb 2007|11:53am] |
OKAY so i've been a lurker on tshirt surgery for about 6 years or something like that......and i really need to start selling the clothes i make. I'm going to start making more again and selling them. I resigned from my position at the credit union..it was a long story....and so that's what i'm going to do to make money. like all those millions of girls that sell their things on etsy.com and ebay.
the thing is: i've got to really get used to using my sewing machine........b/c in the past it's alllll been done by hand. and the sewing machine for some reason i'm just not getting. my husband even tried and it works perfectly for him.....but i'm doing something wrong it's weird.

| Missing her |
[31 May 2006|11:39am] |
There are probably over 200 pictures I've taken of this little pistol of a neice. I miss her and I won't be able to see her again until August. It's a huge story that I'm not going to get into. But she better be safe where she is. Her daddy and aunt and uncle and grandparents miss her very bad. Not to mention an entire church full of people. If anyone hurts her, I will hunt them down.

This was taken at my parent's house at around 7 or 8 in the morning. It was beautiful outside and I of course had my camera in my purse and had to capture this. I love the vibrant orange color. It's gorgeous.

Once again I've been away for a long while. Here's some new exciting things:
I already wrote that I bought a new truck. Now don't hate me b/c it's a FORD.....(Found On Road Dead..and so on) but it's cute, it runs well
annnnnnnnnnnnd it was a great price. PLUS..I LOVE THE FACT that's it's NOT new (well it's new to me) but I love the fact that it's not new b/c then I can do whatever I want to it. I like a bunch of stickers..so.......yeah...I've put tons on!!!!
Jeremy ALSO said I could have the Fairlady 280 ZX that we have (1 of 3 280's that we now own) It's in need of a LOT OF work but we bought it b/c it was an AMAZING price, it's VERY VERY VERY VERY AND ONCE MORE VERY VERY VERY RARE TO FIND...It's literally from Japan, a RIGHT HAND DRIVE, and a lot of other things are rare about it. I LOVE IT AND DON'T CARE IF YOU DO:)
But it's one of our 2 project cars...
We will have a HIS AND HERS 280 ZX shortly so we can ride to events in different states and be in the club they have here in nc
here is our other one we just bought that is his and the daily driver:
He's had z's since he was in high school. they are great cars and UNDER-RATED:( but we love them and don't care if anyone else thinks anything of them or not. We sure do get stares though from other drivers ....one of two things:
what the HECK is that (not very common)
or
I WANNNNT ONNNNE THAT'S COOL
AND IT'S THE NICEST one i've seen around here...WITH ONE exception..this one old dude we tried to buy off of...it was IN MINT condition...well..or so he said..but once jeremy looked UNDER the car and saw how dirty it was ..and under the hood and noticed rust on some of the exterior, it wasn't so minty..but it still WAS nearly perfect for how long it's been around..plus the guy was the original owner.
I wrote a song today during dad's sermon.....inspired by something he said.
We got a turtle off the side of the road today on the way home from church......named him Donatello.
I've been working out A LOT including tanning outside.....
I was in a fashion show on saturday...bought the outfit..it was 40 % off.. wore it to church today:)
it was fun:)
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnd HOPEFULLY i'll be getting a job at an italian resturant like 5 minutes exactly from our house!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M PRAYING PRAYING PRAYING.
but whatever happens, my God has my future in His hands.
It's great to have my brother here..and his daughter jordyn:) she is precious and gives me lots of hugs, kisses, and attention! haha:)
jordyn with a girl at church:)
jordyn LOVES aunt lissie's shoes...there are MANY pictures with MANY DIFFERENT shoes to prove it!:)
God bless you all! He has blessed us abundantly.

So.......I finally have a TRUCK!:) FINALLY. it's awesome...i get to put my lil band stickers on it and harley davidson sticker OH and the Chillout sticker I got from Alive Festival this last summer:):) other drivers get reallllllly close to my car so they can read it:) lol they love it. kinda scary sometimes because that could cause accidents:) But anyway. I have this love affair with those lacey yoke tops....you know the vintage ones they're selling EVERYWHERE! I've wanted one before the stores here even THOUGHT about getting them in because I've seen them on the girl from Eisley and I've seen them on other people's livejournals:) AND OF COURSE JENNY LEWIS:) But anyhoo. i'M THRILLED....and I may be working at Hot Topic..hello I've wanted to work there forever. It's sooooooooooooooo my store. I went shopping the day before yesterday AND yesterday at the mall..the first day I took my mom. We went to the mall and target and everywhere possible in jville. SHOPPING:) Let me tell you, I can get TONS of clothes for $240 I mean some people can only get a few outfits at the mall b/c they have to have everything that ISN'T on sale or bargins. Honey, not me...I'm the BARGIN DIVA!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got a leopard print/red XOXO wallet for $5! Before, it was 20 dollars. The most expensive thing I got out of all my clothes was 24.00...a skull cut out back shirt from Hot Topic. Come on now. But they're pretty hefty in their pricing when you can make the same thing yourself at home if you have talent in sewing and imagination :insert me;) ) just kidding...sorta:)
At Ross, I got a cute cute black skirt with lace at the bottom that was $26 for GASP! 47 CENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM NOT KIDDING YOU. YOU CAN'T EVEN GET THAT AT THE THRIFT STORE NOWDAYS....Especially Goodwill and salvation army b/c they say ohhhhhhhhhhh people are noticing us. now it's cooooooool to go to the thrift store for a lot of people..hmmmmmm let us jack up those dang prices. HA you don't have to. Go to Ross, Rugged Wearhouse, Marshalls honey. It's hard to find good thrift store anymore. But of course I still go. But anyhoo.Walking through the mall for me is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo very weird. I've never been to the mall BY MYSELF before now. LOL esp. 2 days in a row probably three today:) eeek. But anyhoo... gOTTa go do pilates.

| 1 month |
[11 Jan 2006|02:16pm] |
Last night, when JerBear got home from work, we went to Applebee's---the place we met, to celebrate our 1st full month as a married couple.
It was pretty cool.
I got all dressed up in a black satin/lace shirt that i love and didn't put a tank top under it like i usually do.
anddd my stilletos that i love so much and jeans
I actually looked like an adult for once.:)
I got my fave food ever--boneless buffalo wings w/ honey bbq sauce ...man i could eat that for the rest of my life i'm not kidding.
I remember in the beginning of our relationship, we went out to eat E.V.E.R.Y SINGLE NIGHT to eat...
and i almost was like..mannnnnn i can't wait til we have a meal at HOME
lol..welll
i sorta miss those going out to eat every single day moments.
but i love making dinner and cooking ....i'm just saying..i miss the resturants a little.
Tonight I'm making chicken parmigiana.
I think it'll turn out good...I hope so:) He hasn't complained yet..and he's honest when something doesn't turn out the way it should.
I can't wait for him to come home so I can give him a huge hug.
I miss him when he's at work.
I can't wait to get a truck so I can work.
It's not like i can exactly drive either of the two cars in the driveway or the harley.
yet;)
----------------------------
so i went outside to sit on the porch and let harley do his thang....and across the street, there's this black elderly woman who screams out random words and sentences.
It is actually a very scary voice she's got.
wow.
If harley didn't have to pee before, he did after he heard her screaming.
THIS TIME, she was screaming," YOU LEAVE DEM KIDS ALONE! YOU HEAR ME!? YOU LEAVE YOUR HANDS OFF THOSE CHILDREN" and " YOU BETTER NOT LEAVE DEM KIDS OUT IN THE RAIN, THEY'LL GET SICK." MAN. that voice. shivers. But luckily there are people who stay with her...she screams off of the porch...and she told the lady with her to let her pass by her so she could go get the kids. It really makes me sad b/c she SEES the people...I don't know if it's the past like...real stuff from her past..or not. It just ...it's hard to see
someone go through that..even though I don't know her.
I don't know what's going on but it's sad to me.
Everytime I go out to check the mail she startles me b/c her voice is so loud and she screams stuff.
I feel so horrible for her.
----------------------------
I'm not used to being alone...This is really weird...i mean not alone but..you know what i mean...by myself during the day. I mean
I've got harley and stuff but I can't wait to get a job.
To have something to do. I mean I've got stuff here but..still.
and it's sad i told jeremy i only really get to see him a few hours out of the day.
and then on the weekends it's like we never have alone time b/c we've alllllways got to be hanging out with people.
i love them...but sometimes it's just nice to be with each other.
A great gift would be just to stay at home one day out of the weekend and hang out. with. (gasp) each other (gasp) alone.
For one month we haven't really had time to spend a weekend to ourselves. We used to spend time with JUST us before we were married.
It's like....I have to share him now w/ everyone.
but that's life as he would say.
that's just life.
I put my ring that says JEREMY on it....It's cute. I like it.
i've been thinking a lot about my cousin brooke lately.
I wonder how she's doing.

| a dream is a wish your heart makes? |
[06 Jan 2006|03:04pm] |
So yeah.
I rarely remember my dreams so when i do, i'll write 'em in here:
plus i'm banning myself from myspace for the rest of the day...i need to be cleaning my house and all that housewife stuff:)
so anyhoo
last night in my dream...
all i remember is that jer and i were at a hotel where his old army buddies were staying at...and we all talked
the next thing i remember i was walking into Claires....but it was OVERSIZED!!!!!!!!!!! i always want claires to be bigger! and in my dream it was. it was like walking into a store the size of jcpenny but not all winding and stuff...
AND THEN to my surpise i saw Allison Blust..a girl i went to high school with....it was so weird.
and I showed them my rings and said I GOT MARRIED!
AND then in the back was my friend domenic grazioso!!!???? and i didn't say hi to him! i wanted to...but i didn't.
that's all i remember. weirdddddddddd.

| So this is my wedding day |
[10 Dec 2005|08:04am] |
This is my wedding day. December 10,2005.
My family is here (except mike and jeremy and mandy and jordyn) and my cousins and aunts and uncles
but amber,sarah,and thomas are here..and for that..I'M EXTREMELY thankful.
SO it all started yesterday i freaked out b/c jeremy was going to get to meet my fam for the first time.to make a long story short, we went to eat at ruby tuesdays. then the girls left to go get our nails done and jeremy went to clean our house (his and mine :) and then dad and thomas went somewhere and came home.
well towards the end of getting our nails done, thomas calls and tells that the squad is coming to get dad!!!!!!!!!! basically the found out last night in the hospitol that he had an enlarged heart ( we knew that...he's got a big heart!!!!!!!!) and his lungs were filled w/ fluid..dad was filled with fluid. SO. i have to go get my hair done at one...before that, the ones who are staying at my house are going up there so we can have 'christmas' b/c they can't get here from ohio in christmas. it crushes me. my dad won't be at my wedding. I'm really.really.really.really. upset. so i'm going to go see him in the hospitol after the wedding in my dress and they BETTER let me see him.....after all, he was supposed to preach the wedding. it's going to be an extremely busy busy day.
if you're reading this...pray for my dad please.thank you.
love.Allissa

| sO basically |
[02 Dec 2005|09:53am] |
there's like..6 days until I'll be a married woman!!!!!!!!!! It's real crazy thinking about how lovely my life will be. It already is but I can't wait.
Jer's mom is going to pick me up and we're going to lunch...and then I'll go to work w/ her and then to Jeremy's office. I can't wait. I hope everyone likes me lol.
I'm so excited to be a daughter in law. I'm sooooo so so so lucky to have Carol as one...she's so sweet. most people complain about their mother in laws..but not me. we may have different views on some things..but for the most part, we agree on a lot. She's never had a daughter so..I'm glad that I can be one:)

sooooo my days are sugar-filled with Jeremy. This weekend was grand...decorating the house....us spending too much of his money on the house decor:):( but it was fun. and it feels more like home. it's nice to eat dinners at our house:) sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. tonight, we got our wedding bands-----beautiful they are------from our jeweler, Jeff:) we go to him for all our bling bling needs:) Jer bought me the greatest marilyn monroe framed drawing at the mall yesterday when we were scouting dresses for Gretta. Lemme tell you. that was a fun night. We saw WALK THE LINE AS WELL AND I LOVE IT SO VERY MUCH B/C I'M A HUGE JOHNNY CASH FAN...AND reese witherspoon is just the cutest thing. but anyhoo. When I arrived at our lovely home tonight, my marilyn was hanging on my bathroom wall!!!!! Jeremy and I get our own bathrooms b/c of course girls need big bathrooms and guys can have little ones unless they're metro. but anyway. I get to decorate it in marilyn and pink and black and animal print and I'm overjoyed about that..and his is going to be a beach theme. The sad part is, is that they aren't close bathrooms. His is like...way far.:( but i'm sure we'll get ready sometimes together..u know..to conserve water and all:) But....anyway. It's looking more like home and i'm thrilled out of my mind. I love cleaning...it's exciting to clean my very own house. Jeremy and I are so blessed. God is so good to us. I just pray Jeremy is home sleeping soundly right now...he'll get up very very early to come to church. poor thing he never gets enough sleep:( I love him so much and wish i could just make it so he could magically sleep for an entire day. He just..needs rest he's always running all over town. busy busy busy we are. the wedding is creeping up. It's a very exciting time right now. LOL 7 days after our wedding...we're hosting a christmas party for his office.....the 2nd intel batallian...i know i spelled that wrong but..it's okay. which is a quite twisted story....but I won't get into that. and no he doesn't work FOR them he works WITH them. and he actually outranks them. so people need to get their story straight.
