Carmella's Hang Out

Poor David. He is going to think I didnt like the page the way it was before! I did! Really! I loved it. I just also love it with the new things on it! heh. Once again, I have added more to the sidebar. So now, not only can you see what I listen to on my playlist, and all my CDs and DVDs {though the DVD list is not yet finished. Have to get on that next week sometime.} you now can also see small bios and pics of some of my dearest friends. They are mostly online friends with the exepction of my ‘big sis’ Chris. My younger sister Tiff is also not on that page, but I guessed everyone already knew she is my best friend {and best enemy for that matter} I did mention it in her bio page already. And now here.

Today was a bit stressful, but the Lord worked everything out for me and I was able to drop the stress in the early afternoon. At four I was suppose to go in for my ultrasound, but we found out that the doc I was going to is not fully covered under our insurance, and we can not afford to spend the money for me to have one done at her office. So I had to call and cancel it there so that I can get one at Dad’s hospital instead. I woke up a bit stressed, because we were worried they they were not going to cover any of the first visit I had either, and I had blood work done that day too……so eeek!! Praise the Lord, though, they are! HUGE relief. That also meant that we did not have to rush our cleaning job at one, so I could get to the docs!! So before lunch, I took off for the docs office to pick up a Rx for the hospital ultrasound. On the way home, a BIG BIG storm hit our area, and I was SURE I was going to crash poor Mandi right into a tree or sign. My hands and arms were hurting big time when I got home, heh, from all the whiteknuckling I did on that trip!!! heee. But then I sat in my car out in the parking spot to calm down and wait out the rain, and I started the writting for my friends page. That was relaxing!! Then, after lunch, Kade and I took off for our job, of which we only have two or three more weeks. She gave us the name to a new job though, someone that wants us to come clean for her. So that was good!
Most of the rest of the afternoon was spent working on that friends page, I think. Oh, and talking to Tara on the phone and having a wonderful time at that! It was funny, cause I hardly ever get any messages or phone calls during the day, unless they are to return my messages. I knew I had not yet called or written anyone, so I was very surprised when I saw a message pop up on my screen while I was chatting with Tara on the phone. It was a friend from UCN, and he was very upset that I was not paying enough attention to see him right away!!! lol. Then, still while I was talking, but I think after I had finished typing to my other friend, my CELL rang!! lol. I was on our home phone with Tara, and my cell was sitting on my desk. It started to sing a nice tune and vibrate, and Chris’ pic flashed on the screen to let me know it was her calling! I felt so very popular and loved at that moment!! teee heeee.
I heard this great song today on my Yahoo launchcaster, but I cant find much info on it, nor can I find anyplace to listen to it again. It is by a man named Donnovan Chapman. For 11 years he served in the Air Force as a Pararescue, and he was in Afganistan until about a year or two ago. Once he came back home, he began to write songs. This one was called “Hey Hollywood” and was his discust as a soldier for the way Hollywood looked at the war. I can not find the words to be able to remember them all, but I know the chorus said that if ‘they’ {those in Hollywood} did not love this country they were living in, and if all they were going to do was drag the soldiers down, then they could just move out of the country……and he would help them pack!!! It was great! I loved the song! It was nice to hear it coming from a soldier, because it held more importance than from someone on the sidelines, though I am perfectly fine with those of us on the sidelines to HAVE those thoughts and opinions. I hope to hear more from this man, including the song he dedicated to one of his fallen buddies called “There is no War”.

So I guess that is all from me for now. I do not have anything of real importance to say, and usually end up saying nothing in these things. But when I try and ‘wax poetic’ or be all ’smart’ and stuff, I end up being such a downer! So it is kinda a loose loose situation! Oy. Such is the cyle of my mind.
