Writers Strike, Vacation, Friends, Other Stuff
I'm going to say that the reason that I haven't blogged in months is that I usually only blog when I do something stupid and I just haven't done anything stupid in a while. Sure, I haven't done anything stupid since January.
I just want to say that I'm opposed to Unions and large groups of employees extorting their employers, but I really appreciated the writers strike. Sure, I was irritated when I couldn't watch my shows, but after a couple of months, I really didn't care about Network TV anymore. In fact that are a couple of shows that I would like to watch, but I rarely remember they're on. The one show that I have gotten into is "Eli Stone". I didn't think I would like it, but it's actually a pretty great show. So, all in all, I watched too much tv before, now I just watch too many reality tv real estate shows, home improvement shows, and sci-fi shows. So, thanks greedy writers.
Brittney and I are going to Disney World this week. We leave Thursday for Memphis, fly out of Memphis on Friday and stay in Orlando till next Friday. Needless to say, we are very excited. For those keeping count, this is my third trip and Brittney's ninth. Yes, I know.
We are very excited that our good friends Jonathan and Kristine are moving to Bentonville. It's going to be great to have them close enough to visit. Plus, they're at a great church where they can work with youth which is what they've been wanting to do for a long time.
Other than that, the only thing really going on our lives is work and church. Britt still loves her job and the church is still going well. She was really excited last night because she was a preceptor for a new orientee last night.

I Wonder How Long....
it will take Ben to notice I've COMPLETELY changed the "Hightower House" blog page. HA! I'm being alittle mischievous this morning. Here's the back story. I work night shift and so it makes it really hard for me to sleep on the nights that I'm off. And you can imagine that after 4 nights of going to bed @ midnight and waking up @ 4:30 would make anyone lose their minds. And put on top of that the fact that my darling husband is FAST asleep. And SNORING!!! At this point of the morning I go to the Internet and do my e-mailing, facebook, and catching up with people thing. I noticed Ben hasn't blogged in like forever, so I thought it would be my turn and to see if he actually still comes here to look @ this.
With that said, (cue the theme music and swirling images of me with lots of pink) ......WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF BRITTNEY!!!!! All things Brittney 24/7!
Now to catch you all up with what is going on in my life. I'm working as a labor and delivery nurse and I LOVE IT!!! Babies, babies everywhere. I get them out safely and send them on to the nursery. Fun job. Night shift is tough but awesome and you couldn't pay me enough money to go to days right now.
When I'm not working you can normally find me at home playing with Sampson, cleaning, cooking or sleeping off a night of work. I find I have more time now to spend with Ben than I ever have had and I LOVE IT!
The annual pilgrimage to the mother land, aka Walt Disney World, is in 53 days!!! Can't wait.
So, this concludes this wildly fun episode of "The World Of BRITTNEY".
To sum it all up....
1) The World of BRITTNEY is GREAT! Other than sleep.
2) Disney World is coming!
3) Ben, blog more!
*On a serious noted, Ben love you! You can change it all back now. :)

Sick of Being Sick
It used to be that I would catch colds from the people that came into Mardel and then give them to Britt, but since she's started working at a hospital and I don't see hundreds of strangers a day, we seem to have swapped positions. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense that she would catch viruses and colds from a hospital that deals with delivering babies and doesn't treat sickness, but it's happening anyway. Last week, she had some kind of nasty virus that came with the worst headaches that either one of us have ever had and then moved to a cold and ended with a sinus infection. She also got pink eye in both eyes right in the middle of all of that. Right at the end of her sickness, I started and followed the same cycle. Fortunately, I think the worst of it is over.
