Treat Yo Self!

I love to pamper myself, on a budget of course. But what girl doesn't? I promise I am in no way high maintenance, hence the fact all my clothes come from Wal Mart, I'm obsessed with guns and I love the outdoors. But there is a side of me who loooooves to get her nails did and spend too much money on all the pretty makeup. My friends own a beauty school here in my town and I get all my beauty services done there, 1, its a really good price and 2, the students need to learn and I am not picky! Plus some of my friends work there and its fun to see them! I also think it might be a problem when the receptionist knows its you on the phone... Since school is destroying my life I haven't been to the salon in forever!! Also, my bestie JP moved away and we would go get our nails done every two weeks. Last week I decided I NEEDED a microderm. Basically, a microderm is someone with a sandpaper machine going over your face with it to get rid of dead skin cells which can result in glowing younger looking skin! It helps with discoloration and scaring. This microderm was one of the most relaxing things I have done in my life, I am not even kidding you. After the torturous sandpaper machine the gal massaged my head and I swear I could have fallen asleep, it was so amazing and so peaceful and I hate to be touched! Like seriously, don't touch me. I will touch you and hug you and love on you but don't think about touching me. I could have laid there forever, I was so sad when it was over and I had to go back home and do home work. Enjoy this lovely picture of me without a single drop of makeup on for my appointment. I even went to Walmart like this! I've got some balls to do that.

I even thought it was acceptable to go out in public dressed like this. Homeless or causal? 

The day after my microderm my face looked heavenly! I felt almost 20 again.


To add to my pampering my brows were getting kinda crazy so it was time to go through a painful electrolysis session. That crap hurts, but beauty is pain. and I keep coming back. 


My grandpa was still in the hospital last week but he is getting better. My sister and I went to visit him and I took the most precious picture of my nephew and my grandpa holding hands. It is seriously a picture that could make you cry it is so sweet. I posted it on Facebook and then had a family member tell me it was "annoying and distasteful" and to take it down. I was so pissed and so hurt that someone, especially a family member would ever tell me a picture of my nephew and my grandpa was annoying. But here it is on my blog because well, It is my blog. 

Friday night we went on a date to a new place called Black Bear Diner. If you haven't tried it yet I highly recommend it! It was so good! It had a cute fun atmosphere and we really enjoyed it!




This week something pretty neat happened. My mom found a sister of hers on Facebook. Her sister lives around here too, and they met for the first time this week. The crazy thing is, they are very similar. They look so much a like and have similar interests. I am very happy for my mom because she seems very happy to have a sister! We set up a lunch on Saturday for all of us to meet. I grew up with only 3 cousins, and we were all relativity close. Now that we moved to Idaho we rarely see each other. My sisters and I now have 3 more cousins! We only got to meet our girl cousin on Saturday and it was nice to meet her. We had a good time and I am so happy to have more family! Trying to get a selfie with 14 people is hard!







Saturday evening there was a church activity where we ate BBQ and Chris taught the guys how to make competition style BBQ ribs. He did a good job and everyone was really interested in it. Chris did such a good job and looked so cute doing it. HE really loves BBQ,  hence why we keep going back to Memphis. Speaking of which... I think Graceland is missing me. 


I hope you all enjoyed your week! Thanks for reading, enjoy some randoms: Scroll past these pictures to see how I feel about my asshole friend Rachel





PS: I want you all to know how much of an ass hole my friend Rachel is. Her house finally sold (after a year) and her whole asshole family is moving to RI now. That means that asshole will never  come back here and I will never play pranks in the bear suit with that asshole ever again. Plus side, that ass hole lives in the exact place I grew up so we will still see each other.

Easter and Not Having Friends at Church

I had the privilege of teaching the Easter lesson this Sunday. I taught on the Savoir's last week on earth. I hid Easter eggs all over the room with scpritures on Christ inside them. The girls loved the Easter egg hunt because their parents say they are too old for egg hunts.  Sunday's are hard sometimes. I caught my self crying during sacrament today. well, because I have no friends. About a year ago our Ward was dissolved. I had a lot of friends at church, some who have become my best friends. My good friend Jenni who lives a block away and was really my only friend in the ward, moved across town yesterday. Another family I am friends with is moving as well. Church is the hardest place to make friends. I feel like because I don't have kids, and I'm not a newly wed, I don't fit in with any of the groups. The people my age have a million kids, and the couples without kids are kids themselves and just got married like last week, and no one has really wanted to be my

Valentines Day

 Valentines day is a very special day for us. Nine years ago we went on our first date. Nine years ago I was doing some not so good things with my life. I drank a lot, did drugs, and smoked cigarettes. Not the ideal thing for a Mormon girl to be doing. I did not have much support and just hung out with people who did the same things as me. I knew I wanted to changed and be better but I didn't know how. I prayed one night the Lord would send me someone who would help me with my drinking and smoking because I couldn't do it alone. One day in January I went to church,  at the singles ward, pretty hung over from the night before. But hey, at least I was at church! I remember seeing this boy from a distance and something struck me. You know love at first sight? Thats kind of what happened, except it wasn't exactly love; there was just something about him that I needed in my life. He saw me sitting alone in Sunday school and he asked to sit next to me. I looked around the empty

Christmas

My friends think they know me or something.... Amy made a shirt that says "Trophy Receptionist" in GOLD, and Ginger gave me socks that said " You're Not The Boss of Me" It's like they think I act like a princess, but I don't ;). I was pretty excited for my socks and shirt My lady lumps make it hard to read my shirt!  Since it was the week before Christmas we really didn't have a lot of patients. Amy and I made one of our famous music videos, I am going to try to post it right here but don't know if it will work.  I went to Sam's Club with my sister one day and hung out with my super cute nephews. I want to squeeze and kiss them all the time! They are the most kissable boys ever! Well, So is Chris! The little one is just chillin like a gangsta.  With my Christmas bonus I bought myself an Alex and Ani bracelet. These are super popular in Rhode Island and they have a store in Salt Lake City too. They were start
