Brand new day...

So yesterday was a really bad day...today everybody is home so we will try to have a good day. I am going to the library to return 12 of the 13 books I got out two weeks ago. Kind of crazy I know...apparently I need to get more per trip to last me the whole 4 weeks they are allowed to be out...lol. I am also working on getting the rest of my books from Pennsylvania...at least that is I have enlisted the help of somebody in Pennsylvania to help me get them. I am also going to go to DI today and get myself some summer clothes today...as all I own is jeans I need shorts for this Utah heat...well I could deal with jeans but I can not deal with no sun on my legs this year...aweful just aweful looking...lol. If I have some money left over I will go to Wal-Mart and get supplies to start project/blanket number two of four. Well it really hurts to type with my right hand so I am going to go. Wait I guess I need to explain why my right hand hurts so much. Well it's not technically my right hand just three of the fingers that it hurts to bend. Well I was moving my dresser yesterday and I cut the base of my pinky, ring and pointer fingers while dusting off the top. And by base I mean the point where your finger meets the hand...where your hand actually curls...it hurts to straighten them and bend them too much so yeah it's not fun and that is enough because well IT FREAKING HURTS!!!! LOL...more soon I promise.

Grumpy Gus

So today I am a total grouch and there is nobody around for it to effect so I'm not worried about controlling my attitude. I got 4 hours of sleep exactly last night and could so use a nap but there is no time for that. But things just don't see to be making much progress today. I don't know whether it is because I am tired or what but I don't feel like I have made any progress on anything today. I am irritated, hungry, wanting to spend money and wanting to be in Germany. I just can't get a break today. Oh well...that's life...

Kicking and Screaming...

• So for those of you who haven't seen and well who hasn't but I am totally being picked on by my cousins today. For peets sake the one hasn't seen me for more than three or four days in years and that three or four days last year doesn't count because he was in town to see Great Grandpa Ketcham and I was up early most days then. So in the words of Miriam "Don't judge me!!!" Lol...I love my cousins though. I know Jeremy was just teasing but I wonder about Christy because she is the one who dragged Kimberly into it. She says she was just playing but I don't think she was. I think she truly thinks I sleep till noon every day.

• Anyways, yes there was one day that I slept till almost noon and that was only because I had a really crappy nights sleep which included about 2 hours of sleep between 3:30 am (when I went to bed) and 8 am and then I finally crashed and got some good sleep at 8 am. So all in all I still only got about 5 and a half hours of sleep that day and was up till 2 am like most mornings. Right now it is very very early in the morning when I even go to sleep and that is by choice. I could go to bed at like 10 pm but as I talk to Tim after he gets back from PT and before he goes to work. That is of course a personal choice and some nights I do go to bed early but that is like a very rare occasion.

• Also in the morning I actually wake up anywhere between 7 and 8 in the morning but I sit around and read for a few hours every morning. Usually I will read the scriptures and write in my journal before I start my day. It is a great start to any day. As you all know I am an avid reader and writer so it should be no surprise to any of you that, that is how I start my day.

• Wow...I'm sorry guys I totally did not mean to go off on a rant like this when you guys have like no idea what I'm talking about. If you have no idea what I'm talking about and why I am defending myself and ranting like this then go to facebook and look at the status message with like 20 comments from today and you will understand. Thanks for listening (reading)!!

Welcome to the Randomness of ME

• So I am bored if you couldn't tell...I spent all day yesterday sewing, all day Saturday cleaning or shopping and all day Friday and today job hunting. That is pretty much what my life revolves around now. I did however find out that both local Old Navy stores are hiring so I filled out applications for both of them today and I have already been told by the Orem store that there is a good chance of getting in there. Also downstairs at the 5 Buck Pizza they will be hiring soon too.

• I finally made it halfway through my goal of books to read this year...it is kind of crazy. But I am going to have to take a break from the Tamora Pierce books. Not that they aren't excellent books because they are but because after reading 4 or 5 in a row they all sound alike. Then again I was working my way through the Circle of Magic and the Circle Opens series...I got halfway through the third book in the Circle Opens set (Cold Fire) when I couldn't take it anymore. So I am moving on to some different authors and genres of books. But I have like five other books from the library to read so it's no big deal. Amongst them is A Lion Among Men which is the thrid book in the Wicked series...Gregory Maguire is an awesome author but I have to say Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister has to be the easiest to read ergo my favorite. I have also been reading a lot of Jane Austen remakes so to speak...or sequels.

• I am also working on 3 baby blankets a regular blanket and possibly a pillow. However I have never done an adult sized blanket or a pillow so I am experimenting there. I am also going to start doing some cross stitching again. I used to love all those needle and sewing crafts but I haven't done them in years so I figure to keep my mind and hands busy in all this free time I have any more I will pick them up again.

• So Sunday started a Family History class at church (instead of Sunday School classes). I totally love it because we are actually going to be doing the research. Now I just wish I had all my files and data out here so that I know where I left off and who I am going to be looking for. I am a Family History buff as well. Then I love history so why not know my own...lol.

• Hmmm....There is so much random crap floating around in my head that I can't keep it all straight. So I am going to go and download the PAF program for my family history class and figure out how I am going to get all of my original data here. Oh and finish my first blanket...and maybe do some reading...I don't know...I'm going to go do something...lol.

Crazy girl on the loose

• So you would think somebody with lots of time on their hands due to being sick for three days would take the time to post something on here, wouldn't you? Well apparently not me. Yes I had some sort of cold/sinus/allergy thing on Sunday and I have been in bed almost since then. Yesterday I went out to get my passport and got there just after they closed so I came straight back home. I made a to do list on Monday night and haven't done any of it. So today I am heading out here as soon as I check all of my sites and finish getting ready which includes grabbing something to eat later...but what...I don't know that pb & j would be all that great on an sesame seed bun or jalepeno and cheese bread and that's all we have. LOL...maybe just some fruit...lol.

• So things are going along great. Although, I am once again looking for a job. Feature Films For Families closed after I was finally starting to get it. Which sucks but there is something I am missing I just don't know what. I am headed to a couple staffing agencies today AFTER I get my passport...that is the most important thing I do in the coming weeks.

• Life is a crazy thing you know...what not even six months ago I was telling myself I would never get married and look at me now...some things you can never know. Although, I wouldn't change a thing. There is a reason for everything and everything happens in it's own time. Time is a very fickle thing and I'm glad of that because well so are people...lol.

• Well I should head off and finish getting ready to go out...but before I do let me just say that in the past week and a half I have finished like five books. Is that crazy or what? I am catching up to where I should be in my goal to read 75 new books this year. If I counted correctly I have finished 23 this year...mainly just since the end of March beginning of April...it took me a while to get started this year but I am working to catch up. By the end of the week I should have at least 3 more finished. We will see what happens though. I am off to the library today to return 5 of the 9 books I borrowed last Tuesday...kinda crazy...and get some more that I have on hold. I love the Provo library. By the end of next week I will have read every single Tamora Pierce book out there but her newest one...which will have to wait until the end of the year...stupid me...lol.

• Ok so now I am really off. I will update soon.

UGGGHHH...

It's 2 AM and I am still wide awake which sucks...but whatever I'll be up another few hours like normal. So here are some things for your enjoyment. Kate Voegele singing Hallelujah... Reba McIntire singing I'm Gonna Take That Mountain... Rascal Flatts singing I Melt... and Finally Rascal Flatts singing Feels Like Today...
