My 200th Post!!

THIS IS MY 200th BLOG POST!!! =] (if i had realized before hand i would of maybe wrote something really cool)

Monday evening-

Yesterday Spencer and I watched some TV shows. Then later we played some Rock Band and I did some of the dishes. It feels like we did a whole bunch of stuff but not really, the time went by so fast. I watched some TV while he read his book. Then went to bed around 10:30.

Earlier I did talk to my friend Channelle, about how we were looking at a bigger place to rent for a little while. She said her Aunt & Uncle rent out this little house; it’s a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom. She said you could probably have a cat and she was pretty sure there is a washer/dryer. It is in Bountiful but only 10-15 minutes away from downtown Salt Lake. And it’s by a train station so when Spencer starts working full time he gets a free trax pass =]

But I’m still waiting for her to find out the price and if it is available yet. She said they were doing some work on it and she wasn’t sure if it was ready yet. But if it’s not until like August that’s even MORE perfect. I get excited about things too fast. The price probably will be too much but you never know. =]

Tuesday-

This morning I got up and said goodbye to Spencer. I watched some TV shows. Then I got sleepy so I took a small nap. I ate some breakfast and listened to the banging on the walls; because their fixing up the apartment next to us.

It’s going to be another HOT day today!

There is a blood drive at work today but when it’s around my period I try not to give blood because it makes me dizzier after my period.

Not much going on at work today though. So I’m just going to type up A LOT of pages, I hoped to talk to Channelle on Gmail chat but I think she has work today.

I will just watch a few shows.

Oh and I find it funny that I bought jawbreakers when I’m trying to fix my jaw haha

But their mini ones so just suck on them until they are soft and then it’s fine.

Need to start on my walks with friends soon, if their kids are all out.

Also I plan on making a playlist on my iPod of my favorite songs! =]

Countdown-

5 days until our one year anniversary!!!
41 days until something awesome!!! (I some how counted wrong so this is the new number)
58 days until Spencer is out of this semester (40 if you don’t count the weekends or holidays)
77 days until Chicago/Iowa!!!

Sugar Free is not for me lol

Friday evening-

We came home and watched Cheaper by the dozen 1 & 2. =] I love those movies. Other than that we didn’t really do much. It was just nice to finally be home at the same time together. Other than that we didn’t do a whole bunch… I don’t think anyways. We also just played Band Hero for like 2 hours together. It was pretty darn fun!

Saturday-

I saw someone steal from Walgreens so I called them and reported it. This girl hid 3 mountain dews under her shirt. I’ve never seen that before. Than I got ready to go to Stephanie’s place with Jessica. We were supposed to go to clean and I was all set to do that but it never happened. Her in-laws came over and smelled Scentsy which was fine but I’ve already smelled enough smells I wanted to do something for a change. Their place is pretty nice though so we got the tour. And then we ended up going to the Zoo their which was nice but I really was in the mood to clean & organize.

It was mainly a bird & duck soon but it wasn’t too bad for 2 bucks.

There were 5 peacocks, a wallaby, swans, porcupine, hawks, owls, snakes, monkeys, elk, emus, turtles, a coyote, and wild cats?

We also stopped at this nice candy store and I got a little too many mini jaw breakers... And sugar free gummy bears that don't agree wtih my body very well i've found out. BLAH

Then once we got home Spencer & I planned to go to the temple but then he said it would be too busy. But I was really looking forward to going to the temple. So eventually we decided we would go. We did baptisms, confirmations, and intitories for family names. I was really glad we went. I did feel bad because Spencer didn’t have the best experience but I’m glad I went. Then we went home and had a nice evening.

Sunday-

I picked up Evia for church since her mom is on bed rest. She was pretty good, she sat by Cynthia & Jack a little too. Then in nursery we had TEN kids, but they weren’t too bad. Two of them were Cheryl’s grandkids so they weren’t much trouble. But towards the end it was ciaos because they didn’t pre-cut out the drawings so 1 person had to entertain 10 kids while the other two tried to cut the papers out before church ended. Afterwards I went home and watched some TV while eating some lunch. Then I took a little nap, Sunday’s make me tired. When Spencer got home we headed out to Jessica’s to do our laundry. We played a few games with Jerimiah and watched the 3 musketeer’s video. We ate a pretty good ham, corn, and mashed potatoes for dinner. Then we left around 7:30 to go home. We watched a TV show and then relaxed before bed time.

Monday-

This morning I watched some TV shows and called about a place that was for rent.

It’s another duplex. It was 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. It is for $895, which is a lot so we might just check it out. But it comes with a washer & dryer and you can have pets for only $100 deposit! It’s also still in our ward boundaries. So we might just at least go check it out, it has everything we have wanted one our list to move somewhere but it is $895. But it probably won’t happen.

Then my period is ending but I’m getting the dreadful ending cramps. I hate when I have them at work because they make everything annoying like the phones ringing constantly.

Other than that there is this ANNOYING sound also kind of creepy that is happening around my desk. It’s the sound of something rough scrapping against air vents. It happens every 2-3 minutes. I might go searching myself or ask someone to come check for me.

Other than that welcome to another week. This is going to be normal busy like always.

I just realized I left my rings in my sweater pocket which I forgot at home. I’ve been ring less and didn’t realize until I got to work. Now my fingers feel naked. I hate when I forget to put them back on!

After work there isn’t really anything we have planned.

Countdown-

6 days until our one year anniversary!!!
50 days until something awesome!!!
78 days until Chicago/Iowa!!!

DVD list

Thursday evening-

After work I went over to my friend Acacia’s house. She just got put on bed rest for her pregnancy and has a 2 ½ year old little girl. I let them borrow my vacuum since theirs broke a little while back. And I brought over some DVD’s for her to watch. And I played with Evia & talked with Acacia for awhile. It was nice to just sit and talk. Afterwards I went hope to quickly eat lunch. Then went to pick up Spencer from school. We stopped by the church so he could do a few quick things. Then we went home for 10 minutes maybe. He then went to the temple cleaning. I stayed up fairly late cleaning every room and doing the dishes. I think organized all of my movies & updated my DVD list. The next step is my books…. That’s going to be a two person job one. I watched a few TV episodes and then got ready for bed. I was afraid I probably wouldn’t fall asleep before Spencer got home around midnight because I’d be too scared. It turns out that I fell asleep around 11:45 and he didn’t get home until 12:30 and I was pretty much out, I didn’t realize he had come home until he was almost in bed. Which is good because I need to be able to spend the night at our house alone if he ever can’t be home. Before I really fell asleep though I kind of had the feeling that maybe moving right now isn’t for us. But I’m not positive if I felt that right and I haven’t really said anything yet. Because I probably did feel it wrong but we will see. Spencer hasn’t said much about it and I’m not going to push him because he has been really busy lately.

Friday-

I slept wonderful again! It’s such a great feeling =] I slept until 7:30 and then got up. I got breakfast and watched a few TV shows. My house is clean =] I love that feeling. Then I slowly got ready for the day. It’s Friday!! Work isn’t too bad so far but we shall see how it turns out.

I some how missed Duets on TV again last night. Lol So I will be watching that on Hulu at work.

After work I plan on spending time with my husband even if he might have to do homework at least we will be together for once. And maybe we will watch Cheaper by the dozen 1 & 2. ugh I’m not sure what is for dinner though, I need to think of something.

Saturday I’m going to Stephanie’s place with Jessica and I think we are helping her unpack and organize. Then when I get back around 4 or 5 Spencer and I plan to go to the temple to do a few names my mom gave us and one his Aunt gave us. Not sure home much we can get done. But for sure all the baptisms and maybe and endowment session as well. 

Countdown-

9 days until our one year anniversary!!!
53 days until something awesome!!!
81 days until Chicago/Iowa!!!

Cheaper by the dozen

Wednesday evening-

Yesterday we hurried home and had a quick dinner so Spencer could get to the church. I watched a few TV shows until around 7pm. I went to the church & talked to a few ladies from Relief Society. It’s always nice to talk to women occasionally. Then Spencer & I headed over to the Taft’s house to get the tour & Kenzie explained how the other half (that’s for rent) is like. It seems really good to me and that it would be a good idea to move. I’m not sure what Spencer thinks yet. We are thinking of calling the landlord & seeing if we can make the rent a few bucks cheaper. If not then I’m not sure what we will plan on. Hopefully all goes well. If it’s not time to get a bigger place then we will just wait. I just feel pretty good about it. Afterwards we walked home and talked about it a little bit. Than he did some homework & I watched “Your’s, mine, and ours”, so funny!

Thursday-

I slept wonderful last night, I wasn’t coughing or anything! I got up around 6am and I went to Jessica’s to get J ready for the day. He got up around 8 and he didn’t pretty well. He sure gets up and starts talking; I take some time to adjust in the morning. What a silly kid. But we got him dressed, ate breakfast, and off we went to daycare. I was like we will just drop him off no problem. We get there (after I missed the little building first) and J see’s a friend. And we go inside and I do what I need to. And take him upstairs… and it was sad. I knew it would probably be sad for my own children but I was sad to drop off J, my nephew. Afterwards I drove home & watched some TV shows for a little while. And the neighbors were pounding on the walls while fixing that apartment up next to us. Then I won’t see Spencer much at all tonight =[ once at 8pm and then at midnight. So I might a quick stop at Subway to see him and we both got a Subway sandwich; I had to get to work but I took the sandwich with me. I love him so much and I don’t like that he is gone so much but it needs to be done.

Work is pretty low key today so I plan to read books & type up a few things.

Other than that tonight I will go home and clean up the place & maybe get to watch Duets on TV for once. lol

There are ladies in the lobby all talking about their children giving birth. It’s kind of interesting on all their thoughts but weird at the same time. At the same time it’s making it hard for me to concentrate on writing this blog post! One lady said that she thinks as women we like our grandchildren more than our children….. hmm I think that’s a little odd. I mean you don’t have to be with your grandchildren every crying moment and frustrations like you did with your children but I think that’s what makes our actual children more important and will always be above the grandchildren. I mean of course you will do anything for your grandchildren but that’s what helps your children too.

Then I got Cheaper by the dozen 1 & 2 from Jessica to watch, I want to watch it (tonight) but don’t want to watch it without Spencer. We will see. Then we will need to watch the old version of Cheaper by the dozen & yours, mine, and ours.

Today hasn’t been too bad of a day so far!

Countdown-

10 days until our one year anniversary!!!
54 days until something awesome!!!
82 days until Chicago/Iowa!!!

Jaw continues to improve

Tuesday evening-

After work I planned to sit in front of the TV and watch Netflix shows. Well our stupid internet never lets us do that without having to pause for it to load. So instead I watched some TV shows. After awhile it was getting closer for Spencer to get out of class. So I headed out to pick him up. I like to get out and do something occasionally and like to see him sooner. Then he did a few church things. I had an upsetting moment but later just decided to get over it. And we ended the night on a pretty good note.

Wednesday-

This morning Spencer started going to work early and then go to school on Monday/Wednesday/Fridays. In the long run it gets us both up in the morning and we need the money. But it will be even longer days for him. No I didn’t work out. How about I will tell you when I do decide to get off my butt and work out. I know my body wants to it’s just getting up and doing it. I watched some TV shows this morning. Pretty little liars is back on, Spencer & I weren’t going to watch it once they said who A was. But in general I know there has to be more than one A. And I didn’t watch previews until one came on in the theater and it made me want to watch it again. So I’ve been watching it.

Around 9am I had my jaw appointment. It’s been a month since my last one. So far they say everything looks good. He put pressure on the points that hurt last time and none of them hurt anymore. Then they said the next appointment will be in two months! Which okay fine but for all the money I pay I wish they would do more than just “let me heal with the jaw splint”. How about give me guidance and meet with me instead of asking if I did this or that or hoping I’m doing what you asked me to. My appointments are maybe 5 minutes long.

I still have my lovely cough, and I cough in the day time now.

It’s been on the cool side lately in Utah but I don’t mind too much. Work is semi slow today but I do have a few things I plan to do while maybe listening to my iPod!

Later tonight Spencer and I are going to walk through the Taft’s house so he can get an idea of what the place attached to theirs looks like. I’m really excited because I’m curious what he will think of the whole layout. Like I said if we aren’t supposed to rent a bigger place yet that’s fine I will deal with it. The landlord of the place used to be in the ward we are in. She seems really nice so at least we will have a good landlord. (Not that I have had any bad landlords)

Countdown-

11 days until our one year anniversary!!!
55 days until something awesome!!!
83 days until Chicago/Iowa!!!

It’s nice to have a countdown, makes you look forward to new things.

Move or Not to Move is the question! lol

Monday evening-

After we ate dinner we watched Les Miserable (how ever you spell it)…. It was BORING! And so very long, I’m not sure why people like it so much. There were a few interesting moments.

Then I walked to Ellie’s house to borrow the book “How we decide”, it’s a psychology type book. While I waited outside of their apartment complex for her I got 3 bug bites; one on my forehead, one on my left arm, and one on my left hand. I think the bushes around them attract these bugs. I didn’t even have to go camping to get bug bites.

Then a family from our ward, The Taft’s, told us their duplex (the one attached to them) will be for rent at the end of June. So Spencer and I discussed this a little bit.

It is a two bedroom, double the size of our place now. It’s still in our ward boundaries; it is across the street from Smith’s and by two elementary schools (or close to them). It has a dish washer, a bathtub, washer/dryer hook ups! One downside is you can’t have pets but we have wanted to have our own washer/dryers and a bathtub. I’m not sure if we can paint the walls yet. It will be going for $850 and about $30 a month for electricity and gas is about the same. They did say that in the summer depending on how much you run the ceiling fans and such it can go up to $90 tops. We’d have to stay there for a long time if you did decide to take the place & not spend money on a lot of other things. So right now we are just thinking about it for a few days and see what we decide. I have likes & dislikes about the place. It would be nice to walk through it (I’ve seen the Taft’s and their place is basically the exact same layout but Spencer hasn’t seen their whole place yet). So I think looking at the Taft’s place or the place that will be available would be nice for Spencer.

It would be really exciting to move but different so we will see. But eventually we will need a bigger place and this could be a nice start.

Other than that Spencer played Guitar Hero & did the dishes & some homework. I read my book a little and watched some TV shows on my phone. I was super tired but when we did go to bed around 10:30 it really took me forever to really go to sleep.

Tuesday-

I slept in a lot this morning and didn’t work out. I know, I know! But I do want to work out and I will for sure tomorrow morning and then I have my jaw appointment again finally. Other than that it’s been a windy morning. The landlord and a few of his workers were fixing up the place next door that’s for rent. And I’ve been trying not to itch my bug bites. I tried out this spray shampoo, it’s supposed to help get the oils out of your hair if you don’t shower that day. It kind of worked but not a whole bunch. Not too much going on at work today, I am kind of tired but probably because I slept too much. So I can’t wait to get back to my normal schedule of sleeping.

I plan to call the Landlord during my break today to ask a few questions and get a better idea of the place.

Man I would love to just soak in a bathtub right now and listen to my favorite songs. Hmm well today will go by fast, hopefully. Other than that Spencer will be at school all night so I will just chill out at home.

Have a wonderful windy day!

On a random note my sister-in-law Erin; their boy’s name will be Lucas Miles Peacock =]

Countdown-

12 days until our one year anniversary!!!
56 days until something awesome!!!
84 days until Chicago!!!

Here is the bracelet I got in Park City

Park City Weekend

Thursday evening-

After the morning shift at work I went home and relaxed for a little while. No I didn’t work out; it’s hard to in the middle of the day. I watched Gone, a pretty good movie. Then I cleaned the house a little bit. Then went to Jessica’s to help sort out all of the Scentsy orders. Then visit taught Margret with Toni. I found out Toni is pregnant and due in December. All babies are due in August or December it seems lately. Afterwards I bought Little Ceasers for Spencer and I and then we watched Men and Black 1. A fairly funny movie.

Friday-

We slept in on our day off for a little bit. I didn’t end up working out, if Spencer isn’t up yet it’s harder to just get up and leave him there. I dropped off Scentsy at work before we left. Spencer got my Season 2 of Doctor Who on DVD!!! It’s my favorite season because it has David Tennent as the Doctor and Billie Piper as Rose! We then drove to Park City to celebrate our soon to be 1 year anniversary at Silver King hotel. The room was double the size of our place. There was a hot tub in there & 2 bathrooms. The one shower was double the size of our shower and the other bathroom had a Jacuzzi bathtub. There were also 2 TV’s and of course cable. We walked to

Main Street

which was pretty much up hill. We didn’t walk to the very top of all the malls because after awhile it was kind of boring. There were a few cool shops though. We got little animals for the two new nephews coming around August. And Spencer got me a cool bracelet kind of like the one I lost that I got at the 4 corners. Walking was pretty much my work out. We went swimming in the pool and then tried out the Sauna for a little bit. Then we went to the store to get a few snacks… including MINI blue bunny ice cream containers. We did watch a lot of TV shows, one because there wasn’t a WHOLE lot to do and two because they had DISNEY Channel and I don’t usually get to finish episodes on that channel at work because I only get 15 minute breaks. They had a super comfy bed!

Saturday-

I slept TERRIBLE. My legs hurt from walking so much so they were in pain. Then the phones kept blinking and the Comcast thing had a bright light on it. And I was HOT, we had the air on but I was just super uncomfortable. I was coughing a lot in the morning too. I thought maybe it was either allergies or a cold coming on. We made cinnamon rolls for breakfast and watched some cartoons. I really wanted to fly up in a balloon (cost 100 dollars a person but some are more expensive) or go horseback riding… but neither of that happened. So instead Spencer has never been to Wyoming so we drove up to Evanston, Wyoming to check out this one little store my family and I always talk about. And then we had KFC and left to come back to Salt Lake City. I liked getting away but I thought Saturday would be a fun filled day in Park City but we really didn’t do like anything. We did drive around and see a lot of nice houses (they had A LOT of houses for sale) and we also saw this BIG tree with tons of shoes hanging off of it. I was a little disappointed but for the most part I loved just being with my husband before he has to start working at 6am in the morning plus school all the time. When we did get home I took a nap. While I was napping Spencer went and bought Men in black 1 & 2. The 2^nd movie came with tickets for the 3^rd movie. So after we watched the second movie we went to the theaters to watch the 3rd one. They were all pretty funny! Then we got Guitar Hero in the mail. Spencer & I played Band Hero together though, that was fun! And I got my LDS Business College Certificate in the mail!

Sunday-

My cough is worse at night so I try to take some medicine to help me sleep and not wake up coughing. It probably is just allergies because other than that I just sneeze a lot. In nursery we had about 7 kids, so it was a lot nosier then last Sunday. One of the kids dad stayed in with him, which was really nice for the boy’s to have a guy to play with. I wish a guy would come in sometimes to just help out with the boys that need a little more “guy” attention. Afterwards I went to Jessica’s to do some laundry. And I watched Duet’s on Hulu. I also played a few games with J and talked with Jessica. Afterwards I went home to be with Spencer. We watched A bug’s life, and took another needed nap. It’s been a super hot day.

Monday-

I didn’t work out again. Life should be in order by Tuesday so I should start up again. Sometimes life happens and it gets in the way of a few things. And I haven’t sat and watched some of my Netflix shows for awhile. So this morning I watched some shows while I got ready for the day. There have been a lot of phone calls at work, other than that it’s a pretty relaxed day. I am a little tanner but not too much. It’s going to be another HOT day today. But I’ve been trying to drink at least two cups of water in the morning, then a cup at work and then one or two when I get home. I need to keep hydrated.

I have a nice book to read and a show to watch. Then after my break I will probably type up a few pages I need to type up.

I will have pictures of the place down below.

Countdown-

13 days until our one year anniversary!!!
