Just another manic Monday

Wow, I'm tired. My sister and 2 of her roommates are squatting here at my house for a while until they can move into their place the beginning of May. I love having my sister here. Reminds me of last summer. Good times, good times.

Anyhow, I'm just here stretched out on the couch thinking of something to blog about. I should be at FHE right now. I'm just really tired and I really don't feel like socializing right now. Weird, I know. I usually don't mind hanging out with people at church, but today, I'm just not in the mood for social interaction. My home teachers are supposed to come over after FHE, which ends in 7 minutes. I should be taking a shower, but I kind of feel like not moving right now.

Hm...Saturday was my last day at the bookstore. I am SO happy that I don't work there. Although, today when I didn't have to go into the bookstore for the first time in a month and a half, it was weird. For the past 2 weeks, I've been doing both jobs. This afternoon was the first time that I was able to go to WalMart in the middle of the afternoon. In the middle of the afternoon! I hated working there and I really think the owner needs an extra brain to make up for the lack of usage of the one already in her head.

Oh and I need to go to the dentist. My front tooth final cracked. There was already a crack there, it just hadn't fallen out yet. So this morning, after I let my sister and her friends in, I went back to bed and I don't know what I did, but I felt this piece of tooth floating around in my mouth. And I thought to myself, Aw crap. This really can't be happening. Not right now. Heavenly Father, this is really happening isn't it?...Oh I'm tired. I must sleep. That's when I went back to bed. Spit the tiny bit of tooth out and went back to la-la land for anther 5 hours. So I went to the store before work to get super glue to glue my chipped off tooth back in to place. Sick, I know. Possibly toxic? Probably. I wouldn't doubt it at all. But I can't be walking around Provo with half a front tooth. About half way through work this morning, though, I ate a jalapeƱo and off comes off the glued piece of tooth. My sister was still asleep when it happened so I couldn't glue my tooth back into my mouth and I had to finish my shift with half my tooth missing. I felt stupid. I felt trailer trash poor. What am I talking about? I am trailer trash poor....almost. I need to call the free dentist people or cough up a hundred and eighty bucks to have the urgent care dentist take a look at my teeth. Although, the $180 would cover a whole years worth of cleanings and check ups and x-rays. It wouldn't, however, cover the expense of bridges, root canals, possibly a few dentures....heaven knows what else I need to get to fix my teeth. All I know is that I need to fix my teeth. It just needs to be done. I hate having to cough up the money though when I could be using the money for something else.


Anyhow, I need to jump in the shower or at least brush my hair before my home teachers come.

Oh well...Good night. :-)

Late...As Usual

So, turns out that I'm not so great at posting on here as I once was. I was even late to post my once yearly Dear Mom post. I really have no excuses other than I've been out of school for almost 3 weeks now since I started going full-time in January. I'm pretty sure the last time I posted anything was in October of last year. Anyway, let's play catch up! I started school full-time in January at BYU-Idaho's online program. I completed 28 credits this year. I'm ready for a break. The accreditation for the public health degree program changed but the changes only apply for the on-campus students and not the online students - aka me. So I'm going to have to transfer schools...again. I've been looking at grad programs in Portland, Oregon. Portland calls my name at least once a year, and I always research reasons to move back. The first time I moved there I was under prepared. I moved with the wrong person. When I move back, I'll be done with school...

A Healthy Start

So, you know when the beginning of the new year rolls around and you recommit yourself to begin a healthier lifestyle and then you kind of crash and burn somewhere around the end of the month? Yeah...I've been there. Like every year of my my twenties. For some reason, the closer I get to turning 32 - yikes! when did that happen??? - the more I think about where I want my life to go, what I want to do, who I want to be...you get the point. Almost a week ago, I started exercising every day with just one rest day a week. Today - Saturday - is my rest day. It also is my sugar day. Anyhow, last Sunday I was sitting in my room perusing Pinterest. I was coming off a graveyard shift sleep the daylight hours away stint and I was bored. I said to myself, "You should do something healthy today. You've slept all day and have energy to burn." Somehow I ended up on this wall exercise chart thing on a friend's board and I thought, I can do this. It's quiet. I won't wake...

New Things

So, I haven't made a public announcement, but I got a job T H R E E weeks ago. I've been gainfully employed for just over 3 weeks ago. I love working. I love having a job. I love being able to buy the stupid things like toothpaste and shampoo, because really? Since I can buy the stupid silly things that people need to function, means that I can start saving, pay tithing, go grocery shopping. Also, since I work for a certain Church funded company, I also get to go to school. For free. Then, after I'm done doing the program that I've been interested in, since forever, I get to go to Weber and finish my bachelor's degree the debt free way. Awesome, right? It is. It's also a lot of work because since the Church is all about self-reliance and what not, I have to do the work all myself which means that I have to find the motivation to go to 2 night classes a week to get to the point where I can finish my bachelor's without going into more debt. But you know what? ...
