Can't think of title

I skyped with my family on Thanksgiving and it was awesome to see everybody!! Thanks brother! My nephew was so friggin cute in his Red Sox sweater. I CAN NOT wait to see him in person!! Of course I can't wait to see the rest of my family too :) It will feel good to be home. I will be staying with my bro, Sarah, Des and Neely and I am so excited to hang out and have a bunch of laughs with them. I am also going to stay with my parents for a night and visit family in Townsend(I hope!) and hang out with my girlfriends for a night. Oh also visit the twins!! Wow, they are going to be so different and I am already worried I am going to cry when I see them cause I totally still miss them. So many people to see in such a short amount of time but it will be fabulous!!
The weather here was warm for Thanksgiving and I sat out at the beach and got some sun. I had pizza and salad for my feast and I loved it! We saw Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows last weekend and it was awesome. I looooove those movies. We were so excited to see it. I can't wait for Eclipse to come out on dvd so Tony can see it! Well 24 days till my visit home...

My name is Jaclyn

and I'm confused. Tony likes to say this and tilt his head to the side. I never really thought about it much but I am a confusing person at times! So as I think about, I do confuse people and myself! I could almost find it funny. Actually I do. Example of this is, and don't let me confuse you, but tonight we went to Walmart. I had a gift card, cash, and debit card that was being used for the purchase and I guess I confused the cashier eventhough what I signed was the right amount for my debit card so now I am confused and have to go to customer service to get the money back and onto the gift card which has not been used but was supposed to be. I told the customer service lady that I hope I don't confuse her, cause now at this point I am confused and she was nice and patient and was just slightly confused. She went through my receipt and did what she had to do to make things right (took about 10 minutes and now I am sweating in this store). The whole thing that was confusing was that I was trying to keep some money on my gift card!! But I confused everyone in the process! Ok people! I definitely can share more stories about this topic now that I think about it. Not about Walmart, about me confusing myself and people ;)

Well...

Ya so I miss home. Bummer. The longer I am away the harder it gets(that's what she said). I am excited about going home for Christmas but will be sad to leave again. It is stormy and chilly here today. Sort of reminds me of home, except for the huge ocean out my window. It's so windy out there it looks cool. I have had headaches for the last 3 days. Not sure what is going on with that. I worked a lot this week and the kids are sick so maybe I am just tired and fighting an illness. We were supposed to go see Harry Potter today but because I don't feel well and Tony is working late, we are hoping to go tomorrow!!

Cherry Twist

I go to the gas station and cash in scratch tickets for my aunt. I bought her some for her birthday and didn't realize you could not cash them in in another state. So I decide to buy myself a few while I am there. I buy 3 $1 ones and a $2 one. I scratch them when I get home. I am losing!! I am upset!! I start to cry and be all dramatic..."Why can't I ever win??!!! I need the money. I need this!! WWAAAHHHH :*( " I am alone and I am talking to myself, or Opie, if she is even listening to me. I scratch the first row of Cherry twist and I win $100! Did I really?? Am I mistaken? No mistake. I actually won! I haven't cashed it yet. I am saving it for bills or Christmas gifts for when I go home. I might use some of it and buy a few more tickets. I spent $5 today and lost. I hardly ever buy those things but I am glad that day I decided to.

Not much to say..sorta

I wish I had something exciting to write about. I usually have funny stories or weird things happen to me. But lately, not so much. This doesn't feel normal to me! Ha! So now I am not sure if I am bored and just making things up in my head, but I feel like people have ulterior motives. People I hardly know so I guess this could be normal to think. Actually, I have always done this so it is not new to me. I never trust people at first. Sometimes I never will! I don't know what made me think of that. Anyways, I am working a few hours today which obviously I am not looking forward to but it is money for coming home for Christmas! Thanks to my brother who found me a good priced flight, I will be going home for a few days. I dread saying goodbye again but it won't be long till I am back there to live. Living on the beach though does not compare to the streets of the town I grew up in. Or am I supposed to say that the other way around? Hey it's early here. What I am trying to say is now that I have lived on the beach, I think I always have to! It will be cold in NE living on one but I don't care, it's always beautiful to me. Even without the palm trees.

Mr. Sun Sun Mr. Golden Sun...

The last few days have been so nice. Before these days the sun didn't shine for almost 2 weeks! I kept saying to myself "I did not move here for this crappy weather!" Some days I did not mind the rain though. I liked listening to it pound off of things outside the window, seeing it pour off of our huge living room window and make cool designs. It definitely got old and I am so glad the sun is back! The sunsets are back! So other than work, we like to just hang at our beach place. We watch the sailboats and surfers. Haven't seen the dolphins in awhile. Today was the Pats vs Chargers so it was fun being the only one in the complex rooting for NE!! Tony and I made a bet and whoever lost has to do the dishes for a week. Oh poor Tony. He is going to have such dry hands.

Beach Home!

We got a place on the beach!! It is amazing. I can hear the ocean from the living room as I type. I can see it too but it's just dark right now. It takes me about 30 seconds to get to the beach from here. When I go to work, I drive along the ocean almost my whole 15 minute ride. When I come home, I take the same route. It might take a few minutes longer both ways but that's ok. I just can't believe I am actually on the beach...it is perfect. Pics to come :)
