The drive back to Idaho






I was talking to Julie when I took these pictures, I put the phone down don't worry. It was such a georgous sunset I had to take a picture. I was a little disapointed though, because I just missed the sun peeking through the clouds. All the same, I'm glad I got the pictures I did. You'll have to look at them from the bottom up, sorry I have no idea what I'm doing with this blog.

Yep

So I've been talking to some friends in the BYU-I ROTC, and it sounds like something I would love to do. It's training for the military without having to join the military, in a way that is. You can only train to a certain level, but if you want to continue past that, you have to enlist. So I can do all the military training in hand to hand combat, shooting, field call, and all sorts of other things that I've dreamed of, without having to enlist in the military and leave my family in later years. I will definatly be considering it for next semester and I'm way excited. Best part, I pay for almost nothing.

I've decided that this blogging thing is just plain confusing. I give up.

Wahoo!

I got some of the much I need to get done within the next two weeks. I got Rambo all nice and fixed up, his gut is running with nice new oil and he's stopped complaining. And now I just have to remember to be better with putting in the correct pin number with my keybank card or I'm going to get it locked again. That's no fun!
Today has been a good day, now all I need to do is find a winter coat, figure out classes, and then sign up for them on the night of the 17th. Wish me luck! I don't know why, but I'm nervous. That just doesn't happen with me, no matter what it might be. It's weird, cause I'm more excited to start school than anything, so why am I so nervous about signing up? Odd.

Anyways, yeah. I'm bored sitting in the schools library looking up stuff and bidding my time, listening to my mp3. Yay! I can't wait to not have to drvie thirty minutes to be able to get up here and I can be doing more important things with my time than sitting in frontn of the t.v. waiting for things to happen. Woooooot!

Happy Day

Things are FINALLY coming together. I could feel the stress I didn't even know I had leave my body last night as I got into bed, stress that has been building since August. I guess I was really stressed because I hit the pillow and was asleep, but woke up this morning to find I had completly slept past my alarm clock.......until about 11...hehe. So yeah, I've only been awake for aboooouut 45 minutes now. Woops.
Yesterday went great, I finally got my first caretaker position with a funny old man who had a lot of patience with me as I was trying to figure things out, and even more patience as I trained another girl with him later that day!
Hopefully it will all keep up until January when school starts for me. That would be a blessing in it's fullest. I might have work with the ROC, and I might not, but I'm just to happy to care. Heck, I want some french fries and a cheesburger from Ihop. Maybe this weekend I'll head up to Idaho Falls if I don't have work on friday or saturday.

Amazing Sacrament

There was a primary performance today, and it was just amazing. The songs that were sung and the lines (even if the kid had no idea what the line meant and had just memorized it), were powering. I think I have been viewing the world with my eyes half closed for a long time, because all it took was a bunch of primary kids to make me realize how much I had been missing, how much I had been drowning out and not paying attention too. Now I realize that I have been really quite selfish and that I need to take a big step up to be the person I'm supposed to be.
What got me the most was all of the songs that they sung, but the main song that I loved out of all of them was the song; Family is of god.

I can't believe it took me forever and a half to realize all that came to mind today, all because of a bunch of cute primary kids. I just hope that I will always remember to keep in mind what an eye opener all of one hour could do, to open my eyes to things I never thought to stop and think about.
