It's The Final Count Down

This is the last week of the winter semester! On Thursday, I will submit my final research report and I'M DONE! I have an appointment scheduled Thursday for a microderm and to get my nails done and I'm so excited to relax. This semester was the hardest semester I have had so far, I really didn't think I was going to make it. Next semester will be better though which starts in 2 weeks. I am only taking 2 classes and the classes I paired together will be easy enough classes, as I have heard from other students. I wanted to pair up easy ones because spring semester goes until July and I want to be able to have a fun summer to lay by the pool, go to the lake, go on weekend trips, and go shooting. I will not be able to graduate in December as I had originally planned, because a class I planned to take during the summer semester is not offered, which pushes me back to one extra semester but that is ok, it will be fine.

I have lost 8 pounds! I am so excited and I have been feeling great! I have been feeding my poor husband healthy food this week that I thought was pretty tasty. One night he was not too happy about the whole wheat french toast and turkey bacon. The next night we had chicken sausages and the YUMMIEST spinach and apple salad, It was so good you need to try it, here is the recipe: Spinach Salad
I have been eating tons of fresh fruits and veggies, but when your coworker asks you to to go get her some doughnuts, you end up with some doughnuts too. 

                                                 
Also, when your coworker write herself a note like this:
I of course have to do this: 
If you haven't watched the office you won't understand I am sorry. 


So I wrote a while ago around Halloween that my niece came to my office to visit me. Of course working for an ophthalmologist we would have eyeball Halloween decorations. My niece was nervously staring at a jar of eyeballs so I told her that we take out peoples bad eyes and put them in that jar. My niece and nephew asked to see me the other day so my sister brought them to my office for a visit. My sweet niece asked if I could show her brother where we keep the eyeballs, she actually begged me to show him. That poor kid, she really thinks we take out eyeballs and store them in jars. I hope she never has to get glasses one day, she will never come near an eye doctor. 

We had a pretty good weekend. Usually we are running around doing stuff but this one was calm and relaxing We went to the Jagalski's house so Stan and Chris could do a trigger job on our new guns. Chris made BBQ and we hung out there pretty much all day. The next day we stayed home all day and watched conference. It was glorious, we laid on the couch all day in our jammies, I let my hair air dry and I didn't put on any makeup, it was the perfect day. 



Maybe my life will get more exciting when the semester is officially over and I'll have some exciting things to write about.

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

2016

I have sat and thought a lot about what I am going to say in this post. So much has happened this year, its been rough but it also has been a blessing. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger, right? I learned a lot this year. First of all the biggest thing I learned that I definitely paid for was listening to bad feelings. I learned what true friendship was, and saw the ones who cared and saw the ones who didn't. I learned about priorities and what really is important in life. I learned of death and that death is not the end. I learned patience. Maybe I didn't learn patience but I tolerated patience. I learned and always knew that no matter what happens in life that you and your spouse are all that matters. Lets start off with January. Chris was working at the juvenile detention center 45 minuets away from our house. This was a wonderful job opportunity that we both felt so good about. It started to become rough. He was gone all the time and we never saw each other. He

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 glowin
