moving and new neighbors

Thank goodness for Elders quorums!!!! I had my last jewelry class yesterday and thought we wouldn't be able to move much because I am sort of a slacker and hadn't packed much. . . I got done with my class at 1:30 and ran home and began grabbing things out of my bedroom that could be taken over to the new place since I don't like boys in my bedroom. . .and it is still messy (that's what I am most ashamed about). The Elders came about 3. YAY!!!! I will be forever grateful for their help, big strong guys who carried my piano around back and got it through the house and even put it where I asked them. . .and Sky was kind enough to insist on "centering" it under the shelf on the wall (that was what I wanted but hadn't said). Apparently the legs of my piano also come off. . .who knew. . .obviously my mom and dad. . .super duper knowledgeable about moving pianos. I owe these boys (and probably my family) brownies. It would have taken my family HOURS to move what was moved yesterday.

I forgot to mention that I am so very thankful that the rain downpour was in the morning and it didn't really rain at all while we were moving.

I still have lots to do and move. . .I think my first priority will be getting boxes and furniture in the rooms where they belong. I wish I had asked for the 4 wheel cart to stay so that I wouldn't have to pick up and carry everything. I will probably ask my parents for it tonight when I go home for dinner.

I didn't do as much as my dad did and yet I hurt pretty bad and so I KNOW my dad probably hurts worse than I do.

This dream is coming true. . .it still seems unreal that I am moving and won't have roommates. It is becoming more and more concrete every time I go over to my new place. I get so excited!

Lost in the shuffle

I have neglected to write anywhere. . .journal. . .blog. . .anywhere. . .except my homework from my therapist. She is awesome.

Anyway I am just going to say that I am somewhat stressed that I have so much crap. . .and that I have to pack that crap up to move. I also feel very relieved that I am throwing things away. It feels good to de-junk.

My list is getting shorter. . .
My list of things that are packed:
Books (5-6 boxes)
VHS Tapes. . .yes I am old school kinda (see next item) (1 box)
DVDs (1 box)
CDs (1 box)
Unneeded but still used bathroom products (3 boxes. . .who has that much crap? Seriously?!?!)


I still have a large list to do, and yet it is getting smaller. YAY!

So there is my excuse of why I haven't posted here. . .wow.

Odd Bed Fellow

Last night I ripped apart my room so that I could find some missing things. . .I dumped some things on my bed and when it was time for bed I took it all off. . .or at least I thought I had. This morning I woke up and found this stuffed part way under a pillow. . .




I was half asleep when I said "what the heck?" and proceeded to leave it there intending to take a picture before I left. I found it tonight and thought I had to take a picture and post it cause I thought it was HILARIOUS!

Happy 200th entry!

Plants

I love them. . .a lot. . .they are my pets. . .and a heck of a lot easier to take care of too. . .I just bought 3 lovely new ones. . .a Passion Flower vine, an Angel Wing Begonia and a Cleopatra Begonia. I have yet to name them . . .I am SO excited for my own place and my plants! :D

Excuses Excuses. . .

Here are 12 of the most outrageous excuses employees have heard for being late to work:

1. My heat was shut off so I had to stay home to keep my snake warm.
2. My husband thinks it's funny to hide my car keys before he goes to work.
3. I walked into a spider web on the way out the door and couldn't find the spider, so I had to go inside and shower again.
4. I got locked in my trunk by my son.
5. My left turn signal was out so I had to make all right turns to get to work.
6. A gurney fell out of an ambulance and delayed traffic.
7. I was attacked by a raccoon and had to stop by the hospital to make sure it wasn't rabid.
8. I feel like I'm in everyone's way if I show up on time.
9. My father didn't wake me up.
10. A groundhog bit my bike tire and made it flat.
11. My driveway washed away in the rain last night.
12. I had to go to bingo.

This is for you Melissa.

There you happy? I posted.




























Ok, so I do actually have something to write, but I had to tease Melissa for harassing me about writing.

As some of you know Steph is moving south. I am moving north. . .not very far, but north none the less. I am excited and also VERY VERY nervous to be living on my own with out anyone else. . . It is going to be nice, but Satan is working very hard to try and foil the plan. . .That is one reason that I know it is RIGHT, he wouldn't be working so hard if it wasn't. I know I can do it and I don't want to deal with other girls since I seem to have run out of luck with roommates. I don't know. We'll see how I do. I'm sure that Julie could always move in with me if she wanted to share a room ;) We'll see what happens. I don't know why all of a sudden I'm insecure about it since I have wanted it for a long while.
