PUK code is locked

Friday evening- Amen for the weekend! We had dinner and relaxed a bit before heading out to South Jordan for Karlissa’s wedding reception. Beautiful! It was a gorgeous reception building and Karlissa was beautiful. It all came together very nicely and I saw a few people I knew from LDSBC so it was pretty nice. My eyes started to get a little teary during some parts. It’s just happy tears =] we stayed for a little while than decided to head home and relax.

Saturday- We got up to get ready for the day! I headed out to Tooele Utah for my friend Bree’s bridal shower. It was a fairly nice day as long as you were in the sun. We just hung out and I saw Elora and Kaylee and she opened presents. I sat in the sun for 2 hours not thinking about sunscreen or anything so later I come to find out half of my face was burnt and part of my neck was. For heaven sakes! Afterwards I went to talk to my mom for about an hour or so than headed back to Salt Lake City. Spencer cleaned the house while I was gone, it looked amazing and then we headed to West Bountiful for a school friend, Joseph’s birthday party. We were a surprise; he didn’t know we were coming. We hung out for a little while than went back home. Our internet connection this weekend has been going from 1 bar to two bars on and off. I did call that landlord lady one more time and this time she answered. She said the person that lives there was the one that was going to find someone to take her place. She said she thought that girl had someone already and things were going to go through on Monday BUT if they didn’t she had my number and would call me. So I guess we shall see. If not it’s no big deal because we don’t need a bigger place right now but eventually.

Sunday- Before Spencer left for church early he said don’t be late. I told him I wouldn’t because my alarm was set for 8 and it doesn’t take me super long to get ready. Well so a little while later my alarm goes off and I’m just laying there not wanting to get out of bed… then I’m playing with my phone for a minute and realize its 8:36. Apparently I accidently set my alarm for 8:30 and I leave the house by 8:45 so I RUSHED to get ready and instead of walking I drove and made it RIGHT on time. I just didn’t really eat anything but thankfully I’m in Nursery =] I LOVE my calling but just like any calling there will be bad days. We had 6 kids and holy moley was it insane. We had slapping, screaming, throwing, kicking, and crying. And half the time they were all surrounding me when it would happen. It’s no big deal but it was LOUD pretty much all the time. But we were able to calm them down half the time. I love them all to pieces but we do have our good days and bad days. But we made it threw eventually. I went home and ate some food and watched some TV while I waited for Spencer to get home. We had a nice relaxing evening. Towards 8pm I think we watched this weird old ish movie and had ice hot chocolate which is SO good and popcorn!

Monday- What a morning! Spencer needed to go to get a Utah License but we couldn’t find the address of the place but I’d been there before so I got up and took him. Than I hurried home to shower and get ready and noticed something was wrong with my phone but I hadn’t pressed anything. So if Spencer needed a ride back he couldn’t get a hold of me. So I hurried and went back and he just had to take his test and he would be done. So by 9:40 we headed over to Gateway to fix my phone basically something had happened to my SIM card so they just gave me a new one for free. Then we grabbed some food from the food court and headed home real quick. I got last minute snacks for work and we said our good byes. After work I’m going to have a sleepover with Suki so I won’t see Spencer until tomorrow morning. I miss him already but that’s what happens when you’re married.

Besides that not much but typing up some invoices for work and maybe a TV show and read my book.

Have a wonderful Monday!
This is what my phone was doing. so I had no signal to text or call anyone

Game night

Thursday evening-

After work Spencer and I made Tuna Casserole and then brownies. Afterwards we went to Acacia’s house to play games. Basically we played electronic Life again and I put way too many “years” so we played that from 7-11pm. Ah! But it was a lot of fun we had brownies and ice cream and talked about a lot of things. It started to rain/storm around 9pm maybe and it was getting chilly. Across from their house is a duplex and their kind of like studios and one will be for sale in May and the other some other time. So we got the ladies number and I texted her hopefully she will let us know soon if it is still available so we can even just look inside and see if its something we might like to rent. Especially if it’s bigger than our place; it does have a washer and dryer and bath tub which are some things we’ve wanted and we can have a kitten so let’s cross our fingers! (And we would stay in our ward) Spencer won the game and then around 11pm we left their house and I was wearing sandals and we had to walk to our car so we got wet! But we needed the moisture. We didn’t go to bed until 12…. AH lol


Friday-

I slept fairly well since it was cooler in our room for once. I got up around 9:15 and watched some TV shows. We got our swamp cooler type thing which is funny since now it will be cold for just a few more days. But hopefully it works nicely for us at night when it gets warm again. Then off to work we go… its Friday! I plan to work double time on typing up these personal papers I’ve been meaning to do. Other than that not much going on today.

On a side note we might be going to Chicago in September to see Steve Salisbury, I’m pretty excited! Maybe one day we might swing up into Michigan so Spencer and see that beautiful state =]

Tonight is Karlissa’s wedding reception so we plan to go to that for a little bit and that’s about it. Saturday I plan to get a massage and then go to a friend’

Disney DVDs

Wednesday evening-

I went to Taco Bell for dinner and Spencer got Jimmy Johns. After he ate and left for the church I went to my friend Cynthia’s house to play games. We played electronic life and Dutch Blitz! We had a really good time. I was there from about 6pm-10pm. She is pregnant with a baby boy and is due in August so we were talking a lot about that. And I realized I know about 6 or more people due in August its crazy! But Cynthia was saying it’s probably because of the Conference talk from October 2011: “Children” By: Neil L. Andersen (I think that’s the one)
Which would make sense. Then I went to bed around 11 but read a little first before hand.


Thursday-

I slept a little better but at times I woke up super hot. I can’t wait until we get our cooler to keep our room cool. I woke up more around 9:30 though which was fine since I was exhausted. Than just got ready for the day. And now I’m at work. It’s supposed to be semi cooler today and might storm. Which I don’t mind since it’s been kind of hot lately. Just typing up more pages and finishing my book.

After work Spencer and I plan on going to Acacia’s house and her and her husband and Spencer and I will play some more games and eat Sundaes! I’m pretty excited, I don’t get to play games very often especially with other people so it will be nice. And she is having a baby boy too and is due in August as well. It’s super crazy!

On a side note I love the primary song: A Childs prayer
“Heavenly Father, are you really there? And do you hear an answer every Childs prayer? Some say that heaven is far away, but I feel it close around me as I pray. Heavenly Father, I remember now something that Jesus told disciples long ago: “suffer the children to come to me.” Father, in prayer I’m coming now to thee. Pray; he is there; speak; he is listening. You are his child; his love now surrounds you. He hears your prayer; he loves the children. Of such is the kingdom, the kingdom of heaven.”

Have a wonderful Thursday! I’m excited for the weekend as always.
On a side note I think I forgot to tell you a few days ago we signed up for Disney DVDS so we have 6 coming! I’m super excited. We got Bugs life, Dumbo, Lilo and stitch, the black cauldron, great mouse detective, and Up! =]

Radiating Heat

Tuesday evening-

I have a lot of invoices to type up at work now which is fine they aren’t too hard to do. After work Spencer and I had salmon patties for dinner. They burnt and I’m not sure why I’ve made these plenty of times before. But they tasted okay. We were out of Mac & cheese so I just had the patties for dinner. Than we got a letter from our landlord… we can’t have a cat. Which is fine I kind of figured that would be the answer but I still hoped. They were saying they like to keep consistency even though we are good tenants. The thing is the people above us have a cat and they said because they choose their cat over new carpet or something like that. That still doesn’t make it consistent. Oh well eventually we will leave it would just be nice to have another living thing in our apartment besides us. I was just a little upset about it. Then we played some Sims a little because it’s been awhile. Mine are driving me CRAZY! So I had to stop playing them for the day. Than Spencer and I decided to kind of have like a movie night. Not really though because we just watched an extended Phieanes and Ferb episode and had popcorn. Than we went to bed around 11pm. I tried to read a little before to relax so that I could maybe sleep better.


Wednesday-

I feel like heat is radiating off of me! I’m also so HOT especially at night! We don’t have A/C which is fine windows usually work well but not lately. I barely slept at all last night. I’m sure I really didn’t sleep much. I got up to go to the bathroom twice. I had the fan on full blast so parts of me were cold but parts were still super hot. I felt like I was going crazy! So eventually I got up and went to sleep on the couch, it was cooler in the living room. I’m not sure what time I went out there but I got up around 6pm and went back in the bedroom but didn’t fall back asleep. Eventually around 6:40 we just got up and ready to go to the laundry mat. While we were there I watched Glee on my phone and Spencer read his Harry Potter book. When we came back we cleaned up the bedroom and put the clothes away. Then I did the dishes. I went to take a nap but I didn’t really fall asleep really. I feel even more tired and I only slept or tried to sleep for like 30 minutes. I just got up and cut some fruit for my lunch today. Spencer’s Sim game is of him and I. And I’ve accomplished TONS of things I dream of accomplishing but its not me really doing it so I’m kind of jealous of a Sims character. Anyways we departed our separate ways to go to work. Just plan to read, watch TV shows, and do ALL this paper work and hope I stay awake. Heat and lack of sleep really can make a person grouchy.

Tonight I plan to hang out with Cynthia, Acacia, and maybe Margret to play games and chit chat. I’m pretty excited it’s been awhile since we’ve all gotten together. Before I will probably clean the house a little bit (do more cleaning tomorrow) and than maybe take a little nap.

Wish me luck!

# 1 Advice

Monday evening-

After work I picked up Spencer and we headed home. Once we got there I did the dishes and started on the lemon pepper chicken. After dinner I went to Walgreens to get copies of pictures for our awesome picture frame! It was an hour wait and sadly the pictures were kind of grainy but that’s okay. Then when I got home Spencer wasn’t almost done cleaning the bathroom/shower. He does a fantastic job at cleaning the shower. Then we watched Once upon a time.

  • When you attend a bridal shower sometimes they ask what advice you want to give them. I give this #1 advice: communication is key! It’s funny because I’m still trying to do better at that. And at times when I don’t communicate in really any relationship I feel terrible or make things worse than they probably are. That’s why I know it’s key because when you do communicate things are better. It’s the whole giving advice you should be giving yourself. Man it can be really hard sometimes though. Next to patience, those are my two big struggles.

Let’s just say it was a rough night for several reasons.


Tuesday-

I woke up with a nightmare again. I think it was a dream within a dream because I was trying to talk and wake up Spencer but I don’t think I really succeed. It’s funny because once I did kind of wake up from it and he kind of woke up he just rolled over with his back towards me. And I’m like man because I’m all terrified. Basically you know when your eyes are closed and someone uses the flash and you can see it through your eye lids. Well basically I felt like someone took a picture of us sleeping and they were in our house and I thought that was so creepy. So I was trying to scream or speak but it just wasn’t working. And it was HOT; it’s hard not having A/C with the temperature going up outside. I like to be covered up by at least one blanket but sometimes that’s still too hot.

Anyways because of my nightmare I got up later than I wanted to. Tonight we are going to do laundry or at least one of us is. Than maybe do something for FHE since we didn’t do it yesterday. Other than that a semi relaxed evening. Just doing the normal reading and the project of typing up these pages for work.

Enjoy your Tuesday!

The Lucky One!

Friday evening- Spencer and I relaxed for a little while. Then around 8pm I went to Olive Garden to Suki’s bridal shower. We were there until like 1030. We had a lot of fun though. Suki opened presents and we had a few laughs. Ate some really good food and some amazing cake that Kasey brought for us. Then I hit the sack when I got home.

Saturday- Around 10:30am Suki picked me up and we went to Farmington to get her bridals done by Laura. It was a HOT day but we managed to get through it with some shade and laughter. I can’t wait to see how the pictures turned out. We had a lot of fun. And later I realized I got burnt on my neck (splotchy looking) and a little on my nose. Then Suki and I went to South Jordan to watch “The Lucky One”! It wasn’t too bad, I didn’t cry but that’s only cuz Suki and I kept talking so I wasn’t super focused or I almost would cry and she would look over at me and say “are you crying yet?” so then I couldn’t cry. That jerk lol But it was a fairly good movie only there wasn’t much of a climax I felt. They all recovered from situations before you even had a chance to really cry or get upset over it. (I won’t say any details because I don’t want to ruin it) Then I met up with Spencer in West Jordan to see say hi to his friend at their wedding reception. We were there for like 5 minutes then we went back home. Spencer got me flowers and reeses sticks and also new windshield wipers! And I retried on my wedding dress…. 1. Its pretty loose in some places which makes me SUPER happy 2. I wish I hadn’t worn the slip underneath because than the dresses wouldn’t have been so puffy. Too late now. Other than that it was a crazy busy day.

Sunday- It took me longer to get ready in the morning than normal so I was almost late for church. It was our ward conference. It was kind of like normal church though especially being in the nursery. We had 5 boys and 1 girl. But for the most part everyone got along pretty well. And we had very few tears =] we blew up a little balloon for each of them and they had fun throwing them around. Then afterwards I went home and ate lunch while watching Phenias and Ferb on Netflix. Around 3 Spencer and I went to a retirement home with 2 other couples from our ward to give them the sacrament. It was a pretty good experience especially when one of the people bore their testimony it was really powerful. Other than that Spencer and I played a little bit of Sims and watched TV mostly yesterday.

Monday- We woke up later than usually but I think it was good for us. Than we got ready for work. Later tonight I plan on going to Walgreens to print some pictures off and do the dishes! And of course watched some general conference for FHE. Other than that we don’t have a whole bunch planned for today. I did get in the car for work and noticed the tank was ON empty so I hurried to the gas station before work. Thankfully I made it and I wasn’t super late for work. I’ve never had the tank be that low before I like to be as full as possible. Now typing up things for work, it’s a little frustrating and tiresome. Hopefully we can finish it all up soon enough. My break will be reading my book or typing up papers. I put some Aloe stuff on my neck but it is still kind of itchy so I’m trying not to scratch it. Blah!

Have a great Monday!

Celtic Woman

Thursday evening-

After work Spencer and I went home and changed for the concert. Then went out to Olive Garden to eat dinner. Now I have some thoughts I would love to tell restaurants but I don’t think they can do much about it. 1. I like olive gardens breadsticks except they have WAY too much garlic on them. 2. If you can have a small stomach menu or skinny peoples menu. Because I can only eat 1 half of a meal but then they give you all of these sides you can’t say no too. So it’s a complete WASTE of money and food. I don’t think its right for people that don’t eat a whole bunch to have to pay for extra food that won’t be eaten. For example I got spaghetti and meatballs. Which was good but first you get breadsticks and then a soup or a salad. But I don’t want a soup or salad I just want my meal and like the breadsticks. Spencer usually eats it for me but then he can’t always eat his whole meal either. I wish there was a meal in between kids and adult. One time I went to Applebee’s and I told him I wanted the steak but I wont eat the sides so fine if I have to pay for them but I don’t want them on my plate. So he did so and he was nice enough to delete the charge for the sides so I didn’t have to pay. Now it was probably because he was flirting with me that’s what my friends said. This was like 4 years ago that happened. But it was really nice and I wish everyone could do that. I feel bad enough I can barely eat my whole main meal.
Anyways then we hurried over to the Energy Solutions Arena to watch the Celtic Woman Concert! I have never been to one of their concerts before but I watched some DVD’s to prepare myself of what they sing and do and all of that. We had fairly good seats but we were fair enough away that I couldn’t see who was singing or not because I couldn’t tell if their mouth was moving or not. And the lighting wasn’t very good when it was a spot light; it wasn’t bright enough for me to see. But they sang beautifully as always. They did a pretty good job and their very friendly people but sometimes its hard to understand what they are saying when they speak to us in their accent. Lol and I LOVE their dresses! And the one violist is CRAZY, she just jumps and leaps and dances ALL over the place which is nice because it gets people excited and she is really good. But I love lyrics to songs so she isn’t my favorite person. I think Chloe sings really good especially for her age, she is 22 now but she has been in their since she was like 15 or 16. It was a great experience. We got home about 1030 and got ready for bed.


Friday-

Spencer and I got up around our normal 8:30ish time. We don’t even use alarms we just automatically get up then. Of course once again we played Sims. Oh and my Sims person had a baby boy too, for heaven sakes! Do they ever have baby girls? Then I got ready for the day and packed our lunches and watched some Rachel Ray. Today at work there isn’t too much going on so we shall see. I will just read more about TMJ probably and type up some papers.

Later around 8pm is Suki’s real bridal shower. Then Saturday I will go see “The Lucky one” and maybe get a massage and then got to a ward party and one of Spencer’s friends wedding reception. Then Sunday after church hopefully Mariah will come over!

Yay its Friday! Have a great weekend

And on a side note I feel like watching Titanic sometime soon again.
