Memories, all alone in the moonlight....

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

Look mom, no stretch marks!




All I want for Christmas...




  • Is to stop hearing 500 different versions of little drummer boy in one day at work. Except for the David Bowie version. I don't mind that one so much

  • To be able to see my cute sisters preggo belly

  • To be able to drive well in the snow

  • To not have to keep paying for car repairs :(

  • The big fancy Kitchen-aid mixer :)

  • To get the baby room painted

  • To see if I can cook a successful turkey dinner
  • To let my creative juices flow. Learn how to sew, scrapbook, a good holiday dessert recipe

More to come later...

No more early mornings!

So, on saturday night, we went to go decorate our table for the ward Christmas party and I forgot the camera at home, and I wanted to take a picture, so we had a bit of time to kill, so we went home and at that same stupid intersection someone hit me at in October, Derek was coming to a stop, and there was ice and so when the tires hit, we slid, no stopping, right into the curb. Bending the crap out of his axle or something. So for the last 2 mornings I've had to drive Derek over to Caleb's to get his carpool at around 5:45. No fun. It's hard enough right now for me to get to sleep in the first place, so trying to fall back asleep takes about as long as the amount of sleep I would be getting if I was able to get to sleep right away. Boo. So if his car is not done at the shop today, Caleb, you can start picking him up. You're up anyway :)

It's beginning to look alot....

When it's snowing outside, and you're listening to Sufjan Stevens Christmas music, and your christmas decorations are up, your tree is lit, that's when it starts to feel like christmas. It's actually something I'm excited about :)

In a funk

I'm in such a strange mood. I feel so out of myself. I want to try and be a better person, eat healthier, be happier, have more motivation, be a better wife, mother, budget better, but right now I just don't feel it. Of course I don't want to feel this way, I mean, who does? But I just had to say it. It's on my mind, hopefully writing it down will make it better or help me see it from a different perspective, figure something out.

I don't know, I don't know....

Not so bad


Went and saw Twilight last night. Wasn't expecting anything good, so was pleasantly surprised when I actually enjoyed it. I liked all the sexual tension and Edward was super, awesome hot!! Awesomeness. It was very enjoyable for me. Thanks Tanya and sister!! (I totally just blanked on your name, sorry!) Yes indeed!
