the weekend

Ok I'm trying to blog more as long as I don't have to do many pictures!!!  John and I went to the ocean this weekend.  We left Friday night after work and stayed at the Quinalut in Ocean Shores.  It was nice.  We had the surf n turf buffet.  They had a hpynotist show going on.  We really didn't do much.  In the morning we took a short drive to the ocean.  It was so cold!  This is the first time I can remember seeing snow on the sand! yes it was that cold and windy too!  We walked around about five mins. then got in the car and drove home.  We stopped at the pet store, just to look. Then a movie.  Then grocerie shopping and home.  Then about an hour later off to a Birthday party! 
Sunday we played volleyball.  We went 3&3.  That's about how we usally do.  Then I went home to get ready for a little Oscar party!  I made Chinese food and had about a dozen people over.  We had to turn our voting ballets in early and I won! 17/23...not to bad.  All and all a busy and fun weekend!

nothing to write about...

    John and I really don't have much going on but I feel bad reading, and enjoying, everyone else's blogs and not sharing too!  We don't have much going on other then watching John study!  We havn't been doing much because he is studying for the C.P.A. exam...it is crazy hard and takes 6 months of studying and 4 tests each about six weeks apart.  John studys about 50 hours a week on top of working.  He does take about 1-2 vacation days a month from work to study too!  I just hope he still has some left for fun after he passes.  Oh ya and only 22% of people pass the first time around.  He just took test two this morning...he dosen't even know if he passed round one yet.
     As for me I have just been working alot and doing a few things around the house.  I want to paint my bathroom soon.  I think that might be my next project.  Also I am starting to look for my next car.  I leased this one and I only have a few months left.  Right now I am looking at the volvo c70...I love having a convertable but I want a smaller payment so I can save more and work less!  I might by mine or get a used car, I don't know yet...Also I have been going to weight watchers again...I'm always tring to lose weight...I've been on it for about a month and doing pretty good at trying hard.  I have some extra incentive remembering my 20yr class reunion is this summer!  As for entertainment I got the new Verizion Iphone and am having fun figuring it out! 
     Tomorrow we are going to the ocean for the night.  John gets to take a few days off of studing between test.  We are both looking forward to it!  The Dogs are all good and so is John.  He had another 4 month cancer check-up the other day and is all good :)
