Life Update

Hey there .. wow, its been awhile huh?! ive been so crazy busy i havent had time to blog lately .. summer sure is hectic! 


so a few updates in the Miller family ..
Jeremy finally got his dream bike - a Harley! lets just say he, okkkk we, are in love with it!! we are out on it all the time! its something just the two of us can do & when we are out on that thing its like theres noone else in the world .. just us :)) plus, noone is able to contact you while on it .. its FABULOUS to have no interruptions from anyone while spending time together! :) 

I of course, have been spending my summer out in pool & working on my tan! :)) its crazy to think summer is almost over already .. but i must admit, after how hot this summer has been, im ready for some fall weather! A cool down & my favorite thing of all ... FOOTBALL!!! :) Ive been working my ass off & its just going to get worse when my co worker has her baby & leaves me here alone to run the entire office! lol .. lord, let me not burn the place down ;) 


i feel my summer has been crazy & it doesnt seem to be letting up any! :)


well .. im sure ill be around more come this winter & im stuck in the house all the time :) 


till next time ..

Venting

ok .. here has come my time to do a little venting via blog! :) its been awhile, im pretty sure its well overdue ;)


ok so ive been dealing with baby momma drama for oh ya know, FIVE YEARS now! && just recently its started back up .. 


i have a hard time respecting anyoneeee who doesnt work & wants to live off someone else, whether it be husband, boyfriend, state, child support, whatever! if you are able, you get off your ass & contribute to your family! 


anyways .. so lately everything has been over twitter, LOL - i know, right!? she doesnt even have one yet always seems to know everyyyy little thing i post, hmmmm?! ;) why someone freaks out over what is said over social media is beyond me buttt she does. Idk why she thinks every little thing is about her, i mean c'mon i HATE a lot of bitches & most of the things i write are actually about multiple people .. it never has a name attached because its never about ONE person .. and for god's sake .. its JUST twitter! :) So, just the other night we were at my oldest's sons baseball game and as she shows up she called me a hoebag, lol :) then as we were leaving she gets bitchy about twitter again, so i tried ignoring but you can only ignore for so long .. and trust me, i have a temper when pushed. so of course i turned around & mouthed back .. so lets just say WWIII breaks out between everyone! yes, i shouldnt have said anything back & just let her look like a dumbass but like i said, you cant expect me to not defend myself! 


so now we have 4 people yelling at eachother .. TONS of other kids/parents now gathering to watch! talk about being completely mortified! I do gotta give her .. she just ran her mouth and then backed off once she noticed everyone else was watching (as if she didnt bring it on herself, but whatev) .. then her little sister (totally defining white trash) comes running over flaying her arms, screaming at the top of her lungs about how shes been to jail before and isnt afraid to go back with a baby in ONLY a diaper on her hip! (very classy, i know) 


so lets just say .. we ended up with 3 cop cars there .. yes, like i said .. MORTIFYING! although one of the cops had a sense of humor thank god! he asked how long they had been split up & this had been going on & my husband was like i left her 6 years ago & ive been with my wife for 5 years! so the cops jaw of course hit the ground & looked at me with a smile to pop off, "well you know those women - theyre all crazy!" LOL! pshh, like i told him, im just fabulous .. every man should have a woman like me :))


but at the end of the day, it was just horrible, especially considering all the kids were there! thats some shit you deal with when they arent around! the whole way home they were just more upset that it happened the way it did .. when we got home they both gave hugs & said you guys didnt do anything .. but they shouldnt even understand whats going on! 


so i was sure to tell my son's step mother how much i appreciate her & of that fact that if we've ever had issues we talk about it alone & never in front of Ty! thank goodness for that at least! :) 


well .. the moral of the story is people need to stop taking a social media site so damn seriously & to have enough dignity to deal with things in private! :) 


ok, my rants over .. but in good news .. im looking forward to friday! im skipping outta work earlyyy & heading home to hit the pool with the family! :) the hubbys brother, girlfriend & son are heading up along with my most favvv niece! (my only niece :p) so i cant wait to jump in the pool & lay out to work on this tan that seems to be fading! :( 


well, till next time! :)

Ozarks Getaway!

So over the weekend was my "operation surprise mother" .. and i must say, it was a success! she had absolutely NO idea we were coming :)) she was working so we showed up during her lunch break and hid out in her office and jumped out at her as she walked back in .. yep, i pulled it off! :) 


well we spent our weekend just having a blast .. obviiii we spent most of it in the water, i mean helloooo, thats the best part of the ozarks! :) friday once we got settled in we went swimming & then that night we took the ranger out on some trails .. we almost flipped it once but we made it out alive .. *whew! :) 


saturday we spent the day out on the lake .. i of course, spent it floating out in the sun catching some rays & watching the boats go by :) #bestmoments .. jeremy of course spent it on the jetski, i must say, he sure looks hott on one of those! ;) after the lake we went to see the animals next door .. zebras, camels & donkeys! :) after that we swam and the resort place that holds the animals, they have a huge slide & one of those water trampolines .. it was a blast! :) sunday was a lounge day & we did some fishing .. 


i did not want to head home but it sure was what i needed .. a weekend away from reality & all the drama that comes with it! :) every girl just needs some sun, water & alchy to make her feel better :) the only down part to the whole weekend was i lost my FAVORITE neon glasses to the lake :(( i cant find anyyyyy anywhere else that even come close to those! #bummer! 


well, until next time ..

Just Kinda Off ..

So ive been feeling pretty "off" lately .. my emotions are running wild & i cant seem to put them in check! i know most of it is im PMSing but some of it is the feelings i keep hidden deep down that i dont talk to anyoneeeee about, not even my husband! ive been feeling that im need of just a good cry .. well i finally had that last night :) & i must say, i do feel tons better!!! :)) 


i think alot of it is my deep feeling of survivors guilt that noone will ever be able to convince me otherwise! its been 9 years since my dad died, yet im not able to move on from it & i think the reason why is my feeling of survivors guilt. i keep telling myself that if i only wouldve taken him home like i was supposed to then he'd still be here .. everyone tells me that no matter what my dad was destined to die that night & if id been with him id probably be dead too .. yea, well id feel better then! & whose to say 100% that it was ment to be that night!? if i wouldve taken him home he wouldnt have been out on the road that late at night to crash with that car, so maybe i couldve saved him??! Its hard for me to know that i heard the things i heard that night & it was all ripped away in a matter of hours after i left! :( 


i am 100% against drunk driving - hes missed out on soooo much because of one night! his friend was the one drunk driving .. my dad was trying to be the responsible one of not driving after drinking, just made the mistake of trusting someone else. because of one night of fun he missed both of my proms, my graduation, my marriages, his grandson being born, my brother playing high school sports, his graduation & just the moments of life with his family! 


noone seems to understand why i just cant get over it & move on with my life .. well, if you felt responsible as to why he wasnt here anymore, would you be able to get over it?! didnt think so .. especially when i have my son every now & then say he wishes he got to meet his grandpa & that his grandpa flies around with his wings because hes an angel now!  just kills you on the inside .. to think, i couldve prevented all this! 


looking back now, i know i didnt see my dad enough or spend enough time with him .. i cant take it back now but i sure wish i could! i wish i could just tell him how sorry i am & how i wish i couldve changed the outcome! maybe one day ill find a true someone (a medium, a psychic, etc) who can connect us & i can tell him everything .. i feel, thats the only way id ever be able to come to terms with whats happened .. 


well, until then .. i will just have to continue to deal in my own way .. thanks for listening to my ramble!

Sneaky Daughter

so im pretty sure im being a sneaky daughter .. my mother moved to the lake of the ozarks last summer and shes been complaining about when i will be coming back down for a visit. Its been since Thanksgiving since we've been there .. so i have decided to go down this weekend & surprise her with a visit! 


So we will be leaving here at 530AM friday and should be arriving at her work around 11ish :) shes gonna be stoked! I HATE surprises but i sure love giving them! although, i feel pretty bad because i dont wanna give myself away so ive been ignoring my moms calls/texts all week. whoops! ohwell, she will be fine once we get there!


im pretty excited about a weekend away .. i feel like my emotions have been running wild for awhile now & i need some me time with the sun to feel better & balance myself back out!

Update

Nothing new is really going on in my life, still crazy like always! Its summertime and all im worried about is working on my tan! This momma is wayyyy to pasty white :( 


Well, last weekend Ty & I spend the day at the park & then we busted out the sidewalk chalk!! :) Im still a kid at heart, someeetimes :))

                                                                                        Playing at the Park

                  Mommy taking a break - it was hot outside ... rocking my neon again .. im quite obsessed


Last night I attended the first baseball game of the season & i must say, while looking around at the stands, i was the hottest momma there ;) It sounds conceited but hey, im going to enjoy it while I still can! :) 

I sure do LOVE my neon clothes .. not only are they bright & adorable .. they sure make you look darker too! :) win win situation!! 


Well, im sitting here at work & about to take off for the day! Hope you all have a great Memorial weekend!! We are hitting the water this weekend .. bring on the rayssss!

Trash the Dress

I found some pictures on my computer here at work & thought id post them here too :)


you may not know, but i have been previously married also, so when a photographer friend of mine was wanting to do a "trash the dress shoot" .. i jumped all over it! what else am i to do with that old wedding dress in my basement!? ;))


we went out to a park around here and started taking some of just me outside .. then she busted out the paint .. have a look for yourself! :)


*note .. it was FREEZING out still & that water almost gave me frost bite, i swear, lol :)

                                                       

                                                               This one is my fav! 

           

you should have seen what i looked like once i got home with all that paint! lol .. it was sure fun though!!!

Hawkeye Baseball

So, over the weekend i took my son to his first Iowa Hawkeye baseball game! :) If you know anything about me you know, i LOVE my hawkeyes! :)) So naturally, my son does too :) Actually i got this shirt that pretty much explains it all ...

Anyways, he had a blast and i will for sure be going back next season! :) It was only 6$ for me, my hubby & my son to go! what a great, cheap way to spend a saturday afternoon :)
Well, they lost the first game, but won the second! :) 


Heres a few pictures of our time .. 

                                                             Gorgeous day for some baseball
           

                                               Me! :) or Hawkeye Barbie as my co-worker called me  

                                                          Me & the hubbs watching the game

                                             Mommy & Ty .. we love our hawks!

The Afterlife

ok this may be a touchy subject for some people .. but im watching ghost adventures and so im thinking about death & ghosts. Do you believe in them? I do 100%, ive seen too much & dealt with a lot of death in my life not to! 


when i was a kid, my friends and i dabbled in the "spirit world" .. hey, the craft was big then, it seemed like fun! :) so, im guessing thats what started it all. My mothers old house was haunted, completely! Plus, i guess i like to believe that if there are ghosts, then maybe one day my dad can make his presence known.


not going to lie, im pretty jealous about when people tell me their loved ones that have passed have made some kind of connection. i have yet to experience that. i mean i have the little things here & there, but never anything huge. Ive smelled cigarette smoke when i shouldnt be (he was a huge smoker) and theres been a few times i know 110% in my heart my dad has saved me from a few car accidents that wouldve killed me (he died in a car accident). So i know hes here, i just wish hed make moreeee of a contact.


it was a pretty crazy few years there in high school, everyyy year of my high school career, a friend of mine's dad died, and none of them died in a "normal" way. my freshman year my friends dad died while on a family vaca in chicago, he started having a heart attack in the hotel (well we all know how long it takes for anyone to get anywhere in chicago) so the paramedics didnt make it there in time, so they had to watch their dad die :( My sophmore year my friends dad in a freak motorcycle accident ... my junior year my dad died in a car accident (that story is for another time, it was quite the situation) & my senior year my dads friend had a heart attack in the middle of hyvee and died. 


but anyways, all my friends have told me stories of seeing their dad's right after they passed, i never got that .. so im kinda bitter about it. but, what can you do? you have to just try to pick up the pieces & continue on with life. 


ok, well i better get back to my show! :)


much love! 

                                           my dad & me .. this quote means so much to me now!

our story

Ok so im sitting here home from work early watching my cubbies and thought id share the story of my marriage .. well road up to it! It sure was a long rocky one ... but we made it :)


It was the night before Thanksgiving 2007 & i was hitting the town with a couple of my girlfriends!

She informed me that her boyfriend was bringing some guys from work to meet up with us later that night .. i said sure, im always up for a good time! :) One of these "guys" just happened to be a guy named Jeremy! We talked a little bit throughout the night & as the bar was closing he just leaned in and kissed me, yes .. it was a bit shocked! lol, hes not shy at all! :p We ended up that night at my friend's place & we ended up falling asleep on the couch watching Serendipity, how cute huh?! :)

                                             our first picture - the night we met


It was just pretty much all over after that, we spent everyday together & fell in love immediately. We were engaged about 6mos later! :)

We had some problems with both of our ex's at first but nothing was stopping us! :) We moved in together & hit a few bumps. We both had lost our jobs and spent the next 6mos looking for work. We both got back to work & moved away. There in our new town we hit our biggest lows and split up for a couple months .. there started all the fun with the whores coming out of the woodwork! We worked it out and a year later we bought our first house, where we are now :) 


We were then together for about 4 years & still just engaged. I swore, i was going to be that woman who just got engaged and stayed that way for forever! lol :) Then one night while he was at work he texted me and asked if I was ready to change my last name? :) We decided we didnt want a big wedding .. I had already previously been married & didnt want to waste the $$ & he has a love for cars so he wasnt ready to stop spending $$ on those either :p We decided to just have a courthouse wedding .. as to us, getting married is something we wanted to share just us & make it our special moment! 


So there ya have it, after a long bumpy 4 years - on August 25, 2011 I became Mrs. Corrie Miller <3 


                                           Enjoy a few pictures of our ceremony :)
