Back to school... kinda

So I really dislike school. I have such a hard time with tests, it causes me a lot of anxiety. Luckily, I have been on a break from school.. that is until I started this job. I have to take an appraiser course,USPAP. It's not too bad its 15 hours and I get paid over time to do it and they paid for the course. That's all great, but really? I didn't want to spend my holidays studying. Oh well, it's worth it right? I guess the extra over time money would be nice right now. That is a major plus

I will leave you now with a list of things I am greatful for since it seems like a pretty common thing to do right now, seeing as how its the Eve of Thanksgiving;

First, of course is my husband. I love him so much!
Diet coke
My family and in-law family (they have been there for me through so much)
Doctors
Temples
My new job
Steve's job and his education
My puppies!!
Mountains
Ice-I can't drink anything without ice
My health that is continualy getting better
AMAZING friends and neighbors
Thanksgiving music. Yes, this does exist. Don't believe me? I will sing some songs for you sometime.
My car
Adorable Nieces and Nephews
Nielsens Frozen Custard-even on freezing cold days
My guardian angel, Spencer

**I really have so much to be thankful for, so this is the condensed list**

The Weekend

I have been trying for months now to find a cute style for my hair. I got it cut today and I think I like this one. What do you think? Oh, and I got cute new glasses too! I am lovin' them.

Friday night my sister came over with some of my nieces and nephew. We had a great night. Shannon made us some amazing lemon chicken pasta with garlic bread and then we partied all night playing the Wii and Guitar Hero. I managed to snap a few pictures of the night which is pretty impressive since I rarely remember to take pictures. Please notice the dog bed that is being used my My niece. At least someone uses it. She fits perfectly in it I must say.

Oh how I love fun, relaxing weekends with my family. I love them so much!

Hope you all have had as good of a weekend as I have!!

Job

I love my new job! I don't think updated much on that so here ya go.... I love it! I love all the new things I am learning, I love the people I work with, I love my new keyboard they bought me :), I love the flexibility I have here, I love the area in which my job is located and I could go on and on. I am so thankful that Heavenly Father answered my prayers and blessed me with this job. He knew I really needed this change.



In other news, well, there is no other news really. I'm just excited for the weekend, glad we have power back in our bedroom, and excited for FHE Thanksgiving on Sunday!

Too soon my friend, too soon

Christmas music BEFORE Thanksgiving to me is wrong. I am tired of it already, especially since the radio plays the same song every 5 minutes. The differnce is its just sang by differnt people. It's still annoying. They need to stop. We don't even get a chance to focus on Thanksgiving with all this christmas music around us. Maybe, I am just a scrooge.. that is a very large possibility!

Really?! (sorry if this is gross to some of you)

So I received an email from my friend today who informed me that the most searched item on Google in the past hour is "Why won't my parakeat eat my diahrrhea?"

Really? People are wanting to know that? That is insane. It made me laugh and almost throw up all at the same time. People need to get a life!

I have a posted a link HERE to an ariticle on it just incase you want more :)

P.S if you were one of those people who searched that and made it so popular... please, delete me from your contact list ;)

P.S.S Go to google and type in "why wont" and see what the first option is.. its great!

Friends

I am so thankful for good friends. I had a friend of mine on my mind ALL day long today. So I made some cookies and took them to her and her cute family. I kept thinking "there must be some reason why I keep thinking of her, she must need something"
I don't know if she needed anything really, but the long talk we had about a lot of things ended up really helping me. I must have been the one needing something. I am so thankful for great friends who live so close to us. I know now, that we moved out here for a reason. We needed people like this in our life!

Thanks for letting me drop by so unexpected to chat!! :)

My Guest

Dear little grey mouse,

You're gross! Honestly, did you really have to crawl up my wall and then up my door and wait there for me to come home? And did you really have to sit there on my door, for 5 minutes, watching me scream outside when all I wanted to do was go inside? I really didn't like that and would appreciate if you did not make your presence known around me again. I know it's cold outside, and I am sorry you have to live in that but please find someone else to scare.

P.S
Please don't try to come in my house. You are not welcome there and just incase, I have killer dogs!! Beware!

My Boys!

I came home from an amazing night with Caity Squared (For Real!) and found my two favorite boys... snoozing away. I wonder what they are dreaming of? I love my boys!!

P.S. Yes I know, techincally Tucker is not sleeping but he was until he heard my camera turn on. He HATES when I take pictures of him... almost as bad as his daddy!
