Christmas Recap

So Christmas was pretty fantastic. I slept over at my brother's house in American Fork and had Christmas Eve dinner there. Mexican style sans any cooking. We had homemade tamales that someone else made and posole that was mass produced somewhere in Mexico...or maybe California. For dessert, we had pan dulce. It was pretty great, laid back and delicioso. Christmas morn we all woke up around 8 am and opened presents. I didn't want much but I made off with pretty fantastic stuff. All the Santa presents my nieces and nephew got were wrapped in special Santa wrapping paper. It had yellow warning tape and postmarks printed on the paper. It was pretty clever wrapping paper if I do say so myself.

Now I'm home and packing my stuff - again - to move to Ogden, Utah with my dad. I still have to call him and finalize a few things, but I'm moving. This is the third time I've moved this year, but it feels like it needs to be done. I need to get out of Utah County. And it's time for a new start. New year = new start. Just somewhere else.

I don't feel sad that I'm leaving all the people I know here. Like at all. Sure, there are few people that I'll miss, but very few. Maybe all of 10 people at the most. It's time to make friends that I can call my people. People that I can count on. Who are loyal. I mean, of those maybe 10 people I'll actually miss, I can count on them most of of the time. I just need a little bit more connection though. idk. Maybe I'm just rambling right now. Actually I am. But whatev.

So, Ogden, here I come. And Weber State, please, be nice to me!


What the crap is that mascot? A tomcat? Duh...had to look it up but, I'll be Wildcat in just little bit. :)

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...

Book Report

So, remember when I told you guys that I was going to start reading autobiographies and biographies and the like? Well, I FINALLY finished this book. I had to renew it because I made the mistake of getting two Harlan Coben books and well, he's one of my most favorite mystery/suspense author's EVER. The Harlan Coben books were of course read in less than a week. I don't know how I did my homework. Good thing a lot of it is online and not due for a while...but still. I need to stop this habit of reading books when I should be doing my homework. Anyhow, The Road to Woodstock was a pretty good read. Lots of history. I don't know if anyone who reads my blog is really into Jimmy Hendrix or anyone from that era, but it was really cool to get an insiders perspective on what went on. The organizing of Woodstock was a pretty big undertaking but in the end, the organizers just let everyone in regardless of if they had purchased a ticket or not. Did you know that? The organizers of...

Done

I am so happy that I'm done moving! Now comes the almost unwelcome task of unpacking. As it would have it, I've moved into a smaller space and I need to throw out a few things. Maybe, once everything is cleaned up, I'll take pictures. My younger brother, the previous tenant of the space, has left the bathroom a complete mess. Thank goodness for Scrubbing Bubbles and some pretty amazing toilet cleaner. It'll probably take a another day or two to get the shower to the point where I won't be afraid to shower in it. Its pretty nasty I tell you. Anyway, I'm running out of things to write about today. I'm not feelin' it...
