Mansfield Reformatory

Yes, Mom, we finally did it! We spent the night hunting ghosts at the Ohio Reformatory!!

The night started off with Jimmy taking us to Potter's Field.
It was daylight out at that point, but still creepy! Way to set the mood, I like it!







Then it was off to Mansfield!















Carey, Kate & I decided to practice our poses for Ghost Adventures:

























Some Shawshank Redemption stuff:









Some views of inside the prison:









That pic on the left is what the walls look like.





There was a newspaper from 1990 on this desk.









This elevator shaft was in the room where my mom got possessed or something.

I was looking at her through the video camera & I saw something fly by her left knee. I didn't say anything to her, bc I wanted to see if she reacted to it. And SHE SURE AS SHIT DID! You have to ask her about her experience, bc I'm sure I will botch it up. I thought I was filming the whole thing, but apparently I didn't press record, bc at that time I was just showing Jimmy how to focus with the night vision on. He did however capture some stuff on film, so I will eventually get that uploaded. Maybe he will put it on his blog!

The Cells:





This was used in a Lil Wayne video.

And these are just creepy:




bullet holes in the warden's window.



That was written on a ceiling in one of the cells in Solitary.

These 2 were taken in the Warden's basement:







Using Bulb setting:




















And these ones are FREAKY DEAKY:





I REALLY hope that is just a shadow of someone in my group. I really don't know HOW there could be a shadow. But we'll go with that!



WHAT IS THAT WHITE STUFF on the right side? Coming out of a cell. There wasn't anyone in the cells, we were all walking the halls for the tour.



I know you already saw this, but what is that red stuff in the right picture? It's like shooting up



I KNOW this is someone ghost hunting walking towards me. Granted it was PITCH black & I didn't actually SEE this person, but I'm 99.9% sure that's what it is.

And my FAVORITE:

Now, again, this HAS to be either my mom or dad sitting on a bed in a cell, but when I uploaded it on my computer it was BLACK!!! And as I brightened it up, I LITERALLY jumped. It was hilarious! I am NOT kidding. I will debunk and say that is one of my parents, BUT what is that white stuff in front of the figure?

AHHHHHH!!

I will have to say that I have enough evidential experience to want to go on another ghost hunt!



When are we going back?

this is great!

makes me giggle

*sigh*

All I want to do is go to the gym. But I'm so drained from work, taking care of Cade, doing house stuff, social life and volleyball that every time I step foot in this house, I want to do absolutely NOTHING. Not even eat. I have food, but I'm so frickin' tired that I don't even want to make anything. I'm so lazy that opening a yogurt is too much work. {then I'd have to get out a spoon, then throw away the lid, and eventually that spoon is going to get loaded into the dishwasher and I'm going to have to put it back in the drawer!} UGH!!! what the heck is wrong with me? The littlest things are becoming a nuisance. {wow- I can't believe I spelled that right}

Am I depressed? Am I just tired? Just in a rut? What the hell is it?

I don't even want to do fun things either. That's how I know something FOR SURE isn't right.

Well, Caden just woke up from his nap. Guess I gotta go back to the grind.

zoo time

It was a hot one!





After the zoo, Erin fed Cade his dinner:

2011 Family Reunion

haha

CFFD Picnic

Cuties @ the Zoo!

A Night Out

YAY! We all got to go out finally! I wish we could do that more often!

I thought these 2 actresses were the same person. turns out they are good friends in real life. how funny!?!

Rosa Blasi & Lisa Vidal

loco!

apparently, I'm not the only one.

oh yeah?

well, now THIS is happening.

I had to make cuts today for my volleyball team. It was the hardest cut list I've had to make in 6 years!!! I feel bad, bc I wish I could have kept them all. :/

I kept 16 and even THAT is a huge team. 14 would be ideal.

oh dear god....

Wow!


this is absolutely horrible. I almost don't want to shop at Old Navy now. this is ridiculously bad.

OMG!

Wow! You HAVE to try this! It was amazing! I used Jasmine rice with it instead. It was one of those meals where you want to lick your plate after.

I have pictures to upload! I promise~my season just started on Monday, so I've been really busy. I promise I will get some pix in soon!!!!

Cool!

My Little Bro made the front page of the Chagrin Falls section of the Cleveland.com website. The picture was taken by Kyle Lanzer, of Sun News.

Go #82!

The long walk down

I went for a walk into town tonight. It was a last minute decision. I was NOT prepared. I had on my eyeglasses (which are somehow cracked! wtf), jeans, and flip flops. {I swore I would NEVER walk into town while wearing flip flops again. fail.}

So needless to say, I was not looking dapper. Yet, for some odd reason a car with 4 guys drove thru the post office parking lot, just to get a good look and Hoot & Holla "Damn girl! Helll-llllooo!" I didn't really know how to react, but they completely caught me off guard {remember- i was not looking all hot}. So I pretended to not hear them, which was really stupid, bc anyone could frickin hear them. What else should I do, smile & say, "Thank You?"

Anyway, it made me feel good, that even though I wasn't trying & I was pushing a baby stroller, I still got a few hoots! haha

Back to the flip flops. OH DEAR GOD! Why?! I knew my feet would hurt. Why did I do it? My ankle & knee are friggin' killing me. And I get to stand for 3 hours tomo coaching volleyball. ick.

Yes, the fall season is upon us! Volleyball has begun! Tomo is the first day of 8th Grade Tryouts! Can't wait! I like the first day, bc time is mostly wasted on collecting paperwork. Haha. I'm not kidding, I like that- the less I have to deal with the kids the better! :) But in all seriousness, I really do like coaching them. I hate going, but once I'm there, I enjoy it! It's a strange, LOVE/HATE relationship. School also starts this month! Yikes! Where did this summer go?!?! I still have SOOOOO many things I wanted to get done! AHHHHH

But for now, I would really like to stare at the backs of my eyelids. The bambino has been out for about 30 min, I better go to bed b4 he realizes that it's only 10:30 and wakes up!

{he usually go to bed @ 10:30, so if he notices that he went to bed at 9 something- I might be in for a LOOOOOOONG night.}

peace.

I'm guessing this could have been slightly planned- it looks like the guy moved the girl over in camera's view. but he also seemed a little goofy- so maybe it was an accident. either way. it's funny!
