the world of allie

Well, i decided to get one of these online journal thingys because my buddy profile stoped working. Now, keep in mind that my inner most thoughts and feelings are not going to be posted on the internet... i know that i have some serious blonde moments but i'm not that vacant... gotta keep something to the imagination ;-)

The biggest thing that has happened lately.. well two big things...
1. i am offically not an employee of Georgia Pacific :-)
2. i have a baby cousin Austin James Koeber on my dad's side :-) he was born on thrusday August 21st at 10pm.

I'm so happy to be finished with work. The mind games that GP played with me just about broke me, and one afternoon did. My body is still feeling the affects, with every bone in my back popping when i get out of a chair. I met a lot of good people there, and they are the only thing that i'm going to miss. Why not money you ask ? beacause my boss Scott was payed the same salery in 1984!! So you can see my lack on enthusium when i see the low pay check after a back breaking week. I do have some stories, and i'll write them in gradually, i don't want to run out of steam. :-)

My new cousin is the coolest thing to happen to my family in a long time. My dad's side is seriously lacking in the numbers department compared to my mom's. So having another person is an event. He is blonde haired and blue eyed. Gotta give props to the swedish blood running threw us. They all live in Minnesota, so i won't be able to see him till next summer. I'm hopping to get a co-op in Mineapolis so that i can spend quality time, and spoil him enfusly. :-)


this next week is going to be busy because i'm packing for school. I've been so excited to get back to rit that i forgot what i was leaving. Not only was i leaving my family but i was leaving the adirondacks again. when i got out of work at 530 sunday morning, from my last day of work, i decided to take the long way to home. I drove threw downtown and on lake shore drive. the sunrise was so breath-taking that i drove up to Clinton Community. The view was unbelievable, i could see over the whole lake, the path of the water current, everything. It was such a calming moment that a camera would've cheapened. I know that my heart in here in the adriondacks, and i have every intention of buying one of those huge houses on the lake so i can see the same thing i saw that morning when i'm on retirment. i would live here all my life if there was any decent jobs in the area and the state didn't tax us to death. one day, one day.....
