The days of Sally's Life!!

My Life

2010-08-18T20:31:00.000-06:00

It has been almost 3 weeks since I started my new job and let me tell you I LOVE IT. It is weird to say but I can actually feel myslef getting happier!! It feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I can acutally breathe! I have a career now, a stable good job that I am good at and I really enjoy doing! I cant tell you how greatful I am for my job! Now I just have to keep at it and curb the temptaion to go and spend my whole pay check on meaningless things and get things paid off and straighted out and I will be even happier... I can not wait! I will try to keep you all updated! Love ya!

Well Hello!!!!

2010-07-29T14:48:00.000-06:00

It has been quiet awhile since I last updated this!! There hasnt been to much going on. Went to Country Throwdown on June 12 and then to Diamond Rio and the Rodeo around the 4th. Got a new job that I start on Monday and couldnt be more excited about!! Here are some pictures of what I have been up to!

On the 3rd Day

2010-05-12T09:36:00.000-06:00

I started working out on the WII (yes I know what you are thinking.. AGAIN??) and it has been 3 consecutive days and I am SOOOO proud!! Granted I feel as though my stomach in going to deteriorate and fall out and my legs want to fall off but it is the good kinda hurt when you know that you are getting somewhere... I am really trying to keep my motivation up! With the house being crooked the weight doesnt register right on the wii, or on a scale so I can not really register what my actually weight is or how much I am loosing until I visit my Mom in her uncrooked stable home! But that is just fine because when I weigh myself everyday or even every other day I get pissed and upset that I am not loosing as much as I want to right off the bat which leads to me saying "what the hell am I doing? I am not loosing any weight eating better or working out!! I am so DONE!!" then i eat my feelings and lay on the couch. Which will defeat the purpose of the pain I am in now. So in some way it is a good things that my house isnt level. :) I am hoping that I can maybe feel like I am tough enough to start P90X By the first part of July. That should be good.

Just another Manic Monday... Well Tuesday!

I stole this quote from Jenn's Facebook page.

"There is a point in life when you get tired of chasing everyone and trying to fix everything but it is not that you are giving up... its realizing that you dont need certain people, the bullshit, and the drama that they bring!"

Updates

2010-04-20T13:18:00.000-06:00

Does it seem as though ~~many~~ most my past posts have been titled Updates or long time no post?? it does to me. But I dont really have that exciting of a life. Most of it is just drama and things that I am not so sure about to post. ( alot ALOT of gray area.) It kinda makes me crazy. I wish that I knew what was going on so I can do things and get on with everything else in my life. Rather that being hung up on the questions that might not ever get answered or might not ever go back to the normal state of life. I havent really been up to much I feel like my life is a constant blur of parties and bar trips and I dont much like it. I am more of a home body anyways so I like to sit at home sometimes and watch TV, rent a movie, or read a book. And I am not a full time drinker either so going to the bar and hanging out with a bunch of drunks isnt the ideal fun time! Sometimes it is hilarious to see people make complete idiots of themselves though and that makes for a ~~good~~ GrEaT time.

I bought my tickets to go to country throwdown on June 12 it is an all day concert with a bunch or artists. Including the one and only ERIC CHURCH!! And we all know how much I love that man! That is the main reason that I am going. It is an all day concert and the tickets were only 10 bucks!! Sweet deal! There area a few other concerts that I want to go to this summer but I know that the tickets are going to be WAY more than 10 bucks so I probably wont be doing that. But it would be so much fun to go!!

I had a mouse in my house and about had a heart attack when I saw it.. Granted it was dead cuz we put out a trap but it was like half stuck in the trap but still managed to make its way into the little hole in the stove and ended up getting stuck there since the trap was much to big to fit in that tiny whole! You should have seen Candi and I freaking out when I woke up to discover the trap missing in action. We had call for reinforcements to remove the little thing cuz there was no freakin way i was going to touch it. Especially after I jumped across the room when I saw its little tail hanging out the hole! Thank HEAVENS for Dave who saved our lives!!

With Spring in full swing of things FINALLY!! ~~Until the stupid snow that we are supposed to be getting any day now!~~ It makes me miss camping and riding so much more!! I want to go out! And when I do I want to be on MY 450!!Even though it is really Zac's I still helped pay for it! doesn't that count for something?? Apparently not. But I still want it.

I am TOTALLY irate mad with Larry H Miller Honda!! So Granted it has been quite sometime since I got the notice in the mail that my drivers side air bags were recalled, but I called and called the stupid 800 number that they have to schedule your service and left voicemail after voicemail with no call back.. then I was talking to Zac and he had this great idea why not ust stop by the dealership right?? Well I didnt know the address so I googled it and found out that you can schedule your service online so I did, I put right on the service ticket "replace drivers side air bag for recall" I received this nice email confirmation that my appointment that was for such and such date and to go to this address 7646.. I thought to myself wait a second when I looked online it said 4646! Where the sam hell am I supposed to go well I scheduled my appointment purposely on this date because Candi didnt have to work so she could take my car in well I called her and told her that I was not sure where she needed to go so she went to both places and guess what?? The address that they told me to go to on the email there is nothing there at all!! Then she gets to the dealership and the front desk lady tells her to pull the car back into the garage and they lift my hood like they are going to change my oil.. I DIDNT need my oil changed you idiots!! Candi stopped them before they started doing that and told the service man what she was there for and the guy asked her if she ordered a part for it.. Well NO I was not aware that I needed to order a part.. So he ordered it then and will replace it when it comes... Believe you me they are going to hear about this from me!! I am not happy at all!!

I also went for about a 3 mile walk with Candi yesterday! It was so nice to be outside in the sunshine trying to get a tan! LOL But that is all that is going on in my crazy little life right now. So sorry for the boring no picture post.. Loves

Tracy Lawrence!!

2010-03-30T15:53:00.007-06:00

Friday I went to the Tracy Lawrence concert with 2 of my bestest friends!! It was so much fun!! I was standing in the right place at the right time and was able to get a meet and greet pass!! It was so cool meeting Tracy! But of course I forgot my camera and I couldn't find Brittany who had hers to get a picture with him. But he signed a picture for me and Candi's Boot! I stole all the following pictures from Brittany! as you will see we had FUN!!

Stupid Snow!!

2010-02-24T09:49:00.002-07:00

I wish it was sunny outside rather than SNOWING!!

I want to do a snow angel. And every time I am around Mountains of snow (ok not mountains but lots of snow) I think about how cold I will be the rest of the day while Im ice fishing (FREEZING) and how much I would annoy people by complaining and I change my mind (chicken WAY out)

They say that it is supposed to snow on Saturday.. (please dont snow)

Candi and I had a "girls night" last night with Ryan being sick and all we decided to do something fun like paint our toenails.. Turns out we laugh ALOT when we hang out! Stayed up waayy to late, ended up going back to Wal mart at like 11:00 to get polish. It was alot of fun and my toes are SOO Cute!

I smell like Bacon which is fine because I love bacon but it makes me crave it all day..

My High heel got caught in my pants twice today and I almost fell TWICE. But I Love these pants and I havent been able to fit in them for about a Year and a half because of my Thunder thighs and I could never get them to fit right and look cute until now!! Whoot!! I have lost alot around my thighs I wish it would all just go away and I would stop being so dang lazy and work out. Oh Well

I am hopefully getting money back from my taxes this year! YAY pay off some bills!! I only have 3 more payments on my car then I will officially own it!! Wow never thought I would be 24 and not have a car payment. :)

I Dyed (Ooops sorry Tim) I mean Colored my hair RED!! I am so in love with it you dont even know!

I want a pig. For a pet. And I would name him Bacon. And I would love him forever. And No I would NOT kill him for Food. EVER!

I dont know where this post started to go all random with my crazy thoughts but here you go ENJOY!

Whoot whoot!!

2010-02-22T14:58:00.002-07:00

So My birthday is in

5 days!!!

Whooooo Im excited! I know its lame that I am so excited but I am!

Its funny how one comment can change you

2010-01-27T11:56:00.004-07:00

As most of you are aware I have been in this sorta funk lately. My moods have been all over the place to ragging mad to bawling to laughing in matters of minutes. It has not been fun. Honestly it is kinda tiresome. But today it has all changed by one simple comment some man that I don't even know said to me. I answered the phone like I do normally and was greeted but a happy man asking me how my day was and if I was in a good mood.. I gave him standard answers like I'm good and sure and he said well change that to of course because You will never see today again so you might as well enjoy it while its here. WOW!! Slap me in the face right now! How did this man that doesn't even know who I am know that this is exactly what I needed to here. That I cant go back and change yesterday but I can change how yesterday is effecting me today. Right then and there my mood changed and for the better. So I jotted this little quote down on a post it and now it is hanging above my phone so I can remember that always. I have always been a quote girl and they always seem to hit me somewhere that even I don't understand and the one that has been circling around lately is this

" I make mistakes, I am out of control and sometimes hard to handle. But if you cant handle me at my worst then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."

And

"Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib, not from his feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal! Under the arm to be protected, & next to the heart to be loved."

My life is pretty boring so I don't take many photos or I would post them.. But when I do something eventful Like go to the Chris Cagle Concert on the 4Th or My birthday party on the 27Th (31 days 8 hours and 58 mins) I will try to remember to take pictures and post them.. Until then you get my lazy no picture posts :)

Is it Ok??

2010-01-22T09:26:00.002-07:00

That I am secretly Jealous of many of my friends??

Who are Happily Married

Who are having babies

Who are going back to school

Who are moving into houses that they own

Who have cute toddler kids

Who aren't 23 (almost 24 YAY) Divorced, living pay check to pay check barely making ends meet

Did I mention having BABIES??

Is that ok?

Week 2

2010-01-12T14:48:00.003-07:00

We are on week 2 of the new year and I have already failed on most my resolutions. But Im still not going to give up and keep at it. :) I have only worked out twice.. Not to good but I am still trying.. My plan is to work out tonight too.. I must get into is gradually so I dont hurt myself is what I keep saying. It would be much easier if I had someone to do it with me but now that Candi is working nights or busy I do it myslef.. Oh well right?

I have started to write in my journal again.. I do this all the time and I only have about 10 journals. LOL but I really think that this might help me channel some of my negative energy.

I also have been thinking about the things that define me as a person. Because for so long I was always just Zac's wife. Or so and so's friend, and I dont want to be that I want to be the one who stands out in the crowds and not a tag along to someone elses name. So while I was thinking about this I thought I would tell you some of the things that I think define me as a person

I am a true believer of God.

I have an undying love for my Mom

I am my Daddy's favorite daughter... And guess what he is my favorite Dad.

My brothers are my strength. I rely on them for so much.. I dont even think they know it.

I am such a hard worker. It makes it hard for me when I have nothing to do all day long.

I rely on the comfort of people who know me so I dont usually walk up and talk to someone I dont know. Im not a bitch Im shy.

I love dark chocolate.

I think that is it important for everyone to take some time out every once in a while and get to know themselves again. Weither it be listing out things they love, hate, like, disapprove of, want to change and anything about themsleves it helps you not forget who you are so you dont just remember yourself as this person's wife, mother, daughter, sister, brother, husband, or friend. So i challange you to do it too! :)

Nappy Yew Hear!!!

2010-01-06T11:58:00.003-07:00

For those who dont know what that means.. Happy New Year!! LOL.

My new years resolution it to follow all my new years resolutions!

My Top 10 2010 Bucket List

1. Work out everyday! I started on Sunday doing the WII fit. It kicks your butt I aint gonna lie! But Unfortunately I was sick on Monday and Tuesday so I need to work out extra hard today. When I got on the board it said that I have lost 25 pouns since the last time I did it which was Bout a year ago.. But I think that it lies cuz our floor isnt level. I think I have only lost about 10 or 15 Which is still good. I decided though that this year instead of setting a goal like I am going to lose 50 pounds... I tend to get frustrated and anxious because I am not meeting the goal so this year it is to work out everyday and get in shape.

2. Try to not get so irritated with EVERYTHING!! Atkinson Trait I am trying to break here.

3. Stop drinking so much Pepsi.

4. Do something crazy once a month. Help keep me sane I guess.

5. Volunteer.

6. Give Blood.

7. Try foods I would never ever eat before.. I have already done some of this.. :)

8. Get a Tan! A good one!

9. Talk about my feelings rather than holding them all in.

10. Go to bed at a decent time.

I Hope that 2010 is better..Much better than 2009 was.

Lately

2009-12-30T12:17:00.002-07:00

I havent been up to much lately.... Christmas was so FUN

I have been helping Zac move his stuff to his brothers and some of my stuff too until I get room at my Dad and Moms.

While we were moving I saw my mother in law.

Things did NOT go over well.. She didnt speak to me... I didnt speak to her... Her feelings were hurt and so were mine.

I yelled at Zac for it.

He yelled at his Mom.

NOT GOOD!!

"Speak when you are angry... You will make the best speech you will ever regret."

I have been trying to understand where she is coming from in the way that I feel she acts towards me and I cant understand. I know that she is hurt and upset about what is going on but so am and so is Zac.

I want to be able to understand. I need perspective.

I am not a mother. I dont know what it is like to be protect over your children.

I know that I am not perfect and I am to blame as well.

I try to protect the people that I love by not showing many of my true feelings.

I wish that we could all be grown ups and act mature about everything.

Breaking chairs, burning pictures may only give you temporary satisfaction. It will still hurt when its all broken and the flames are put out. Then you will be stuck with the memory of the memory you could have had evidence of.

What did I ever do to you??

Pay it forward

2009-12-22T09:07:00.004-07:00

I have been having a rough time getting into the Holiday spirit this year.. I dont know if its because I am broke and can not give gifts the way that I normally do or if it the pending divorce, Or the fact that my apartment doesnt have enough room (or outlets) for me to put up my tree and all my pretty decorations! Usually I am the person at Christmas that everyone hates because I am so overwhelmed with the Joy of the season, my tree up and everything decorated the day after thanksgiving, my shopping done early so I avoid crowds. (sometimes I make myself sick thinking about it) There is nothing wrong with loving this season. I have always loved this time of year. All the laughter and happiness, the cold, the lights, everything! This year It came to quickly for me and I have not been in the best of moods... a little bit of a Ba Hum bug, Until today... I went to the gas station as usual this morning normally I get a huge Pepsi and be on my way, today it is a little chilly Like what 28 degrees?? so I decided on getting a coffee, some gum and a Pepsi (can live without it, 100% addicted) as I was waiting in line for the woman in front of me to finish paying I was off in la la land she left and I went to pay, the cashier said that woman that just left already paid for your coffee! I was so overwhelmed with the feeling of gratitude and holiday spirit I wanted to cry! This woman who doesnt even know me, doesnt know the situation that I am in, that out of the kindness of her heart paid for me! It was just the pick me up that I needed today! So I want to say THANK YOU mystery woman Thank you!! You have done so much without even knowing it!!

Today...

2009-12-14T10:34:00.003-07:00

Today is a hard day. Zac invited me to his family Christmas party.. I dont know if I should go.. I want to but at the same time I dont. I dont know what to do. I am sick of everyone around me telling me that I am selfish because I want to be happy. Ok not everyone but one person.. I am lost and confused that I am missing out on the life that I should have had. The life that I chose to have and the life that was taken away from me because I wasnt worth loving.

I am not selfish.

I do deserve to be happy.

I AM WORTH LOVING.

The rise and FALL...

2009-12-10T11:21:00.002-07:00

So Monday as I was walking out to my car in what was it 18 degrees weather chatting with Jen about how cold it has gotten minding my own business... Out pops this slab of BLACK ICE!! and BAM down I went! Just like that I fell smashed my left hip and knee and shoulder into the ground!! Then I rolled over and laughed! I fell on the ice ha ha Jen asks "are you ok?? by the way that was a graceful funny fall and if I had a Camera we would have been millionaires!!" Okay so it was funny until I got in my car and drove home.. Getting outta my car was another story! Pain!! So much pain! I feel like I am about 710 years old!! My left side hurts! (of all sides my left one had to be it right?) If it werent for the fact that I have a suitcase sized purse that I had flug over my sholder I probably would have smacked my head on the aspahlt! Thanks goodness!! I am okay sort of I am still sore and in alot of pain! But I am good.. Thought I should share my funny falling story with y'all!! Merry CHRISTMAS!!

Tomorrow

2009-12-08T10:34:00.002-07:00

One day a woman's husband died, and on that clear, cold morning, in the warmth of their bedroom, the wife was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't "anymore". No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, no more "just one minute." Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used up and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, say"I love you."

So while we have it, it's best we love it, care for it, fix it when it's broken and heal it when it's sick. This is true for marriage......And old cars... And children with bad report cards, and dogs with bad hips, and aging parents and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it.

Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved away or a sister-in-law after divorce. There are just some things that make us happy, no matter what.

Life is important, like people we know who are special.. And so, we keep them close!

Suppose one morning you never wake up, do all your friends know you love them?

I was thinking...I could die today, tomorrow or next week, and I wondered if I had any wounds needing to be healed, friendships that needed rekindling or three words needing to be said.

Let every one of your friends know you love them. Even if you think they don't love you back, you would be amazed at what those three little words and a smile :) can do. And just in case I'm gone tomorrow.

I LOVE YA!!!

Live today because tomorrow is not promised..

The Weckers

2009-12-01T11:31:00.004-07:00

I was listening to the Wreckers the other day while I was sewing and they sing a song called Stand Still Look Pretty. And I know the whole song, every word. (no lie) but I never really listened to it.. I sang it the first time and as the words came out of my mouth I went wait... What?? Here is the song:

I want to paint my face
And pretend that I am someone else
Sometimes I get so fed up
I don't even want to look at myself

But people have problems that are worse than mine
I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time
And I hate the way you look at me I have to say
I wish I could start over

I am slowly falling apart
I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start
You might think it's easy being me
You just stand still, look pretty

Sometimes I find myself shaking
In the middle of the night
And then it hits me and I can't
Even believe this is my life

But people have problems that are worse than mine
I don't want you to think I'm complaining all the time
And I wish that everyone would go and shut their mouths
I'm not strong enough to deal with it

I am slowly falling apart
I wish you'd take a walk in my shoes for a start
You might think it's easy being me
You just stand still, look pretty

I really was struck but the words. It made me feel good for some reason. That it is okay that I am complaining about my life. That I dont need to feel bad that millions of people out there have more problems and worse problems than me and here I am complaining all the time but it is okay. People love me and care about me and it is okay for me to do more than stand still and look pretty. Now I dont really know for sure what this song means but it makes me feel better about all the complaining that I have been doing. And that is all that really matters. Well not all but you get my drift right??

I use my blog more as a journal than anything else really, mainly because I feel that the people who read it are A) people who really care about my life.. AKA my family and my friends.. or B) people who want to talk about my life... which means that you care about it :) I have tried to not be fluffy with it either, and this is why. I love my family and my friends and I feel that if you are going to take the time outta your day to read about my life you care and you deserve the truth about how I am feeling and what is going on, I dont do it to make anyone worry about me or to feel bad for me, that is not what I want. It is hard to talk about it and to hash out my feelings like this sometimes but it really does help out. I am constantly looking back at my post and reading them and re-reading them. It helps me cope. I am the type of person who holds all my feelings inside until I blow up, I dont tell people how I feel. I dont think that it matters. Not because I think that people dont care about me cuz I do. It is because I dont feel like it is going to change anything. Maybe I am worng.. It is something that I have struggled with my whole life. Call it a fault call it a strength. It is both. Posting my feelings here is easier. Cuz its a secret still... (not really) but if people dont read it then it is. And it feels like I am just writting stuff down to be tucked away cuz I am not face to face with someone. I dont know if that makes and sence but it does to me. I may be slowling falling apart, and I may be going crazy. But I am OK!!

2009-11-30T10:00:00.002-07:00

Thanks

Trials

2009-11-25T12:50:00.005-07:00

Our character is not measured by the amount of good times that we have, it is measured by if we are still standing after the bad times have destroyed our lives.

I was thinking about that statement today and all of the trials that I have been through over the last couple of months and I giggle a little cuz no one wants to go through all of the bad time to figure out if they have good character. But trials are trials weather they be big or small. 90% of life is crap and the other 10% is how we let it affect our lives. I am having a hard day today because some of the things that have been happening and I think to myself how much worse is it going to get before it starts to get better? I am not strong enough to take all this on... Why me?? I want to give up. I may think that I am not as strong as everyone keeps telling I am. But why? Why dont I think that I am strong enough to deal with all of this? I still get out of bed every morning. I still am living my life, talking to my friends, I have to keep doing this to keep my head up. Be stronger than the pain I feel. So why is it that I think I cant take it on? Look chaos right in the face and tell it to F off?? (pardon my french) But really. I am a strong person. I can handle this... Right?

What doesnt kill you really does make you stronger. You live you love you learn. One day at at time. Dont make the same mistake twice. Basically all that I am trying to say is

Just keep SWIMMING!!

Such and Ugly Emotion...

2009-11-17T10:17:00.002-07:00

Jealousy! It is THE UGLIEST EMOTION out there!! And it does not and will not ever look good on me... I have been over come with this emotion today and it is making me do and say things that I hate!! I am sick to my stomach jealousy PLEASE PLEASE go away!! This stupid emotion can turn you into hateful and mean and make you lie, cheat, and steal, and that is just to other people... I hate this stupid feeling...

My name should be Procrastination...

2009-11-13T10:06:00.003-07:00

I couple of weeks ago... Okay well like 2 months ago a guy at my work burned me the P90X work out DVD's. I went and I bought the Tube thingy like a stretch band... You all know what I am talking about.. Anyways I was all gung ho about starting the work out!! Then I left Zac and I told myself that I would do it even more now cuz I need to lose this weight, then the stress and everything made me lose a little weight (15 pounds Whoot) and my clothes fit better and such but I stopped losing weight well except places that I dont want to lose it like my rear and my chest.. I still have it all in my thighs, my stomach, my arms, and my face.. But I decided that I need to start feeling better about myself and having higher self esteem (its amazing the realization that you get from no sleep and watching 28 day.. the one with Sandra Bullock where she goes to rehab)if I was going to expect anyone to want to be around me and like me or love me I needed to like and love myself first. So I am going to make a goal with myself (again) to start P90X!! and I am going to post on here and let you all know how it is going to help me stay motivated! I have quite a bit to lose and it is going to be rough.. I hope I can make it!

Anywho I am doing okay. Everyday is a challenge and you never really know what it going to send you into fits of tears. I had a pretty bad day yesterday and I just cried to Brittany while decorating her Moms tree while I was thinking that the Holidays are here and it is going to be harder than I expected to be alone. I feel like an emotional wreck all the time! I don't think I realized how hard it is to not call him everyday or text him when something happens, I had never left someone who I had shared the past 4 years of everything with. The littlest things effect me in the worst ways, simple things like Austin and Karley getting engaged!! I am so happy for them, but the thoughts that I am not going to be a part of it, That I cant share this special time with people that I love because I am not a part of that family anymore. I cried for 2 days. I miss my friends that I used to see every single weekend. I miss my in law family. Today isn't looking like such a good day either.. On a lighter note I am doing a lot better with not pulling my hair out! My Mohawk is getting longer and now it just makes it even harder to do my hair.. It just stands straight up!! I look like I have weird layers in the back too, mainly because it doesn't straighten very well. I have a sliver in my finger tip that I cant get out and I have heartburn.. Other than that I am happy that it is Friday and hopefully I can do some fun things this weekend. Loves <3

Some of the Things..

2009-11-09T09:30:00.006-07:00

I was reading Becky's blog the other day and she was talking about all of the things she is grateful for, Then Today Lyndi posted a thing that said that she was going to post a comment everyday about something that she is grateful for on facebook, and it made me think about all the things that are going on in my life that have shadowed all the things that I am grateful for in my life. When I really should be thinking about them... So with the Thanksgiving Holiday right around the corner I thought I would take a time out and tell you some of the things I am grateful for..

My Job. Being Laid off helps you really appreciate working.

My Mother.. She has taught me so much in life, and she still lets me cry on her shoulder when I do the things that she has told me not to.. Plus she loves me. I am her little Lady Bug!!

My Car!! Thank heavens that you still run!!

My Wonderful brothers. They love and care unbelievable amounts about me!!

My Little apartment.. :) Enough said

Chelsea, Because no matter how I am feeling she tells me that she is proud of me!! It means more than anyone will ever understand.

Trever, Baylee, Cody, Evan, Chaia, Gen, Gilly, Rylee, Camri, and Sawyer... Cuz I love you!

Text Messaging... It is just great isnt it??

Facebook... This one is a love hate...

Alicia, Nichole and Traci. I could not have picked out better matches for my brothers to be married to! Thank you for not only having as your family but letting me be your friend!

Candi.. Your my bestie! You make me do crazy things that I am grateful for..

My Friends who have stood by me and love me and want to be there for me in my hard time.

My Dad! You are my hero and I love you!

The Golden Girls.. Hilarius!!

The people in Zacs family who still love me and consider me family still..

Zac. Because you helped me out and your not being an ass all the time.

My Ipod!! Cuz I can listen to what I want when I want!

God.. Because no matter what he always knows..

That last hour of the day where you get so much done because it DRAGS!!

Thank you to all of you who have been there for me and helped me when I needed you!! I hope that I can provide the same help to you!! I love you all.

"Love: its the only force strong enough to turn an enemy into a friend."

Caution!!! I am venting.

2009-11-05T12:34:00.004-07:00

I am so sick of the DRAMA that has so rapidly taken over my life in the past month or so I could just die!! I am so sick of this feeling of wanting to throw a temper tantrum like a 2 year old every day, I am sick of feeling like I am getting somewhere peaceful and happy and having it ripped from my grasp, I am sick of feeling like I am not good enough when I know that I am, I am so sick of not wanting to get my ass out of bed because it hurts to bad to be awake, I am sick of the feeling of betrayal and being walked on by the some of the people who you love and trust the most, I am sick of disappointment, heartache, pain, crying til I throw up, And I am so so sick of not having someone to talk to anymore who understands exactly where I am at because I am being overshadowed by "THE DRAMA"!!! Thanks for listening... I dont feel better but It feels good to have it out.

Something I never understood...

2009-10-22T14:08:00.000-06:00

Why they charge you more money when you put more toppings on a hamburger or any food for that matter, but they dont charge you less when you take toppings off.

Anybody know why that is??

Extremely Personal Thoughts

2009-10-15T11:02:00.007-06:00

I have had this post saved for awhile now. It is extremely personal and I am not sure if I was ready to put it out there yet, I don't want the gossip to start and crazy assumptions to be made about my life. I also didn't want to hurt feelings or be thought of as a horrible person for my choices. I understand that there are many people who are going to be affected by this in a negative way and that is not my intentions to do so, I love my family more than anything in the world and I can only hope that because of this they will still consider me their family too. Please remember that I am reaching out on a limb here in hope that venting will help me deal with a hard decision in my life and I don't want to be the topic of conversation on how my life is falling apart. Please be respectful of my feelings. Here is goes...

As most of you know I have had allot on my mind the past couple of weeks and it seems like I am hitting a wall, physically and emotionally. I know that there are going to be hard times and that my decision to leave a bad situation was the hardest that I have ever had to make in my life but it is for the best. I am finally feeling as though I can be Happy. Even though I have to hurt and cry and hurt someone else in the process it will all work out. Believe me it is hard when the realization hits and he discovered that life really wasn't that bad and that I really did deserve to be treated better. And it is Extremely hard sometimes to come home to my one bedroom apartment where I am living with my best friend and climb into my twin bed, but I am doing it and I am truly happy. I laugh all the time!! I really don't think that anyone, NOT ONE Person should have to deal with some of the stuff that I have had to in the past 3 years of my life, granted I love my husband so so much but just because you love and care about someone doesn't mean that they love you and care about you in return.

I have never really realized how sad I was til I made the decision to leave, and now I am happy.

You never realize how important life is, until someone that you love dies.

You never realize how much you want children, until you no longer have the option.

You never realize how hard it is to talk about this, until you have to.

Life is to short to live in the shadows, so Work like you don't need the Money, Love like you have never been hurt, And Dance like you do when nobody is Watching!!

Right smack dab in the middle of my Nightmare!!

2009-10-14T09:27:00.002-06:00

So last night Candi and Dusty thought that it would be fun if we went to a Haunted house.. Well... They were wrong. I cant believe that I said yes in the first place and was all cool about it! It was Candi and I, Dusty and Devyn and then some of their friends and we went to Nightmare on 13th We had $3.00 off coupon. It was fun until we got there. Candi ran into the wall and Devyn jumped so high and flung himself into the wall that was pretty funny.. And guess what?? If you keep your wrist band on til next Wednesday you get back in for FREE!! And of course who can pass up free? So we are going back and I am going to be just as terrified!! Oh well... Happy Halloween!

I wish I was here....

2009-10-13T09:33:00.003-06:00

Even though I have never ever in my life been to Hawaii... I still wish I was here... Front porch rocking with the blue sky... I just want to get away from it all and relax!!

Long time No Post....

2009-10-08T09:45:00.002-06:00

PS... Milo and I got into a fight and he took a CHUNK out of my thumb!!! If I didnt love that little dog so much I think I might have killed him!!

Hellooo there

2009-09-16T10:30:00.010-06:00

It has kinda been awhile since I blogged a posted pictures so here are some.. YAY!! We (by we I mean Candi and I) went camping up to the property a few weekends ago, I havent been up there in about a year!! Man how things have changed. They have had the loggers up there because the trees got the pine beetle and so most of the pine trees are dead and being taken out. :( very sad. It is so strange to look up at where trees used to be and see nothing. The tractors that the loggers have been driving around have trashed the scenery too. It is quite sad. But once the trees are all gone the new ones can grow. They we all dead a quite the fire hazard!! Candi and I also went for a few walks. I only biffed it twice! Go me! I feel walking. Honestly I wasnt doing anything else but walking along and BAM I hit the ground. It was pretty funny! Candi laughed and Nichole made sure I was ok then laughed. It was fun. Here are some pictures of the fallen trees and Laila.

All the trees. Or the Lack there of.

Some of the Logs.
Oh.... Laila

We also went to Jordanelle with my Parents and Alicia and the Girls. Candi was brave and got in the lake for the FIRST time!! I know crazy. She has a phobia of large bodies of water and not being able to touch the ground. She held on to the ladder for the most part until I got in and she realized that she wasnt going to die and let go. She got used to it the more and more she was in there. I also wake boarded. I went out both side of the wake. Something I havent done since I was younger. I always in vision myself flipping over and smacking my face on the water so I chicken out! I have some pics but I wont post them because I look like a beached whale! Alicia and Gen also wake boarded and Baylee and Gill rode on the tubes, and Candi and I rode with Chaia about 5 miles and hour on the tubes. It was pretty fun! Here are some of the pics.

My Daddy. Doing a bunny hop.Candi... She was not very happy that I was taking Pictures...Besties...Alicia..Candi in the water for the first time.Chaia holding the flag ready for when Alicia fell..
Enjoy

Does ANY body want to know...

2009-09-10T11:30:00.002-06:00

" Here comes Santa Claus here comes Santa Claus right down Santa Claus lane...."

I am so ready for Christmas!!! Even though I dont know if I will be able to put up my tree and all my cute cute cute decorations... :( I still cant wait! And yes I am aware that it is ONLY September and we have Halloween and Thanksgiving but I am just so excited!!

2009-09-02T09:18:00.002-06:00

Concert Fun

2009-08-28T10:16:00.006-06:00

For the Salt Lake County Fair Chris Cagle came and opening for him was our very own Utah Band Jagertown!! Since Candi's Mom works for SL County we always get tickets to go to these fun events here are some pictures from this year,Jagertown playin'

Matt, Lisa and Randy. I think this is before the concert.

Chris CagleZac and I. I dont really know what was going on with my camera but it is kinda cool how everything behind us is blurry.Candi and I at the stage. Zac and I after the concert. He was a little not all there that is why he is actually posing for the picture.

Something I made for the Dad's in my family

2009-08-28T09:46:00.002-06:00

I made this one for My Dad.

I made this one for Tim. Cuz he only has Girls. Alicia you can not show him this cuz I havent given him his yet... Slacker I know.

And I made this one for Josh. Cuz he only has boys.

I also have one in Mind to make for my mom... But it might not be for awhile because I have some other projects going on and some things that I need to get working on for Christmas, Yes Christmas. I originally was going to make the letters out of Vinyl but it is so expensive and I would have to buy alot to do it so I settled for Paper. I think that they turned out so cute! And with the help of Penny and her craftyness they turned out even better than I thought they would.

Reading Back

2009-08-27T10:24:00.002-06:00

Do you ever go back and read your old posts?? Well Today I did and I realized that I was a really negative unhappy person before. I think back to the times when I started blogging and where my life was. It has completely changed and I am a better person because of it. I had happy moments that were glimpses into a life I was growing to hate. Although I was working for a great company and I loved most of the people that I was working with at the time I was miserable, Getting Laid off was the best thing that could have happened to me personally, Not financially. Even though I have gone off the deep end with all my struggles and all my stress, I am getting better Now. Before it was like I looked at the end of the road and that was all that I was seeing. Even though I am half bald, fatter than I have ever been and up to my eye balls in debt, I wake up each morning excited for my day. Something that I have not been in ages. Granted I still have my freak out moments but who doesn't??

A quick Shot of CRAZY anyone???

2009-08-14T09:55:00.003-06:00

I dont know what the deal is but for the past few days I have been having these CRAZY dreams and I remember every second of them.. Down to people being pregnant and smoking menthol's because its better for the baby.. to food that I was eating. I dont really understand them I wish that instead of your sleeping mind hinting to something in your life in a strange way that you have to disect and figure out that it would just spell out what it means.. Like your too stressed out and you need to stop pulling your hair out and control your OCD, PS enjoy yout anniversay next week and the house will sell, Your brother in law will listen to what you tell him even if you have to say it a hundred million times.. I am getting more and more nervous about the house not selling and if it does where will Zac and I go? I am also getting scared that I am going to spaz out and end up back in the ER with more parts going Numb or more increased and having something more that stress actually being wrong with me. I am trying really hard to stay positive and be happy and upbeat. Mainly for Zac he would go crazy if I acted crazy all the time. My allergies are all of a sudden really really bad, has anyone else experianced this?? Is it normal?? My eyes itch so bad I want to rip the out of my head... Needless to say I am in a Crazy mood today so watch out.

On a Lighter note, I am really excited to get a "mini vaycay" the boys are going hunting and Zac might be going to Yuba with Nic and Chels so Candi and I are going to have a girlie weekend and just not be wives and working people for a few days and have a sleepover and watch movies and hangout. I am excited!!!

Julie and Julia

2009-07-31T12:05:00.005-06:00

The Fed Ex guy that comes in to my work gave me 4 tickets to go and see and Advanced Screening of Julie and Julia, I have been wanting to see this since I first saw the previews, so you can imagine my excitement when he gave me the tickets. I felt like a Celebrity going to a Premiere with the press and everything! So I asked my Mom, Traci and Alicia to go with me and kinda have a girls night out. They gladly agreed so when I got off work last night I met up with my Mom and we were off to the Gateway. We picked up Traci and went on our way. Only getting lost a few times taking quite the Round about way to get to the movies. We waited in Line for a few minutes waiting to get the tickets for the Show (actual movie tickets that have the seat # and such on them) when a women comes out and asks for everyone that have the tickets to form a line over here please... So we walk over there only almost punching some lady once and waited... She then informs us that the movie has been sold out... Wait SOLD OUT!!! You arent selling ticket to the Advanced screening thats not fair... Calmly she explains that they opened up the ticket sale at 4, They werent selling them they opened them for pick up so all these people went and picked up the tickets at four and they have none left. Sad as I was that I couldnt live in the Lime light for a few hours I didnt want to wait for the manager to come around a give me premiere tickets for another show that I may or may not be able to see. We met up with Alicia Out side and we went to Biaggi (i think) for dinner and it was FAB!! We ate in style because Alicia knew out waitress she brought us out a new soup to try and we got Creme Bruli and all at a killer price!! I had so much fun, I love my sis-in-laws and My Mom! It couldnt have been a better evening. Thanks you Guys for going with me!!

What a FUN Weekend

2009-07-20T12:05:00.002-06:00

I had Such a FUN weekend!! I got to hang out with my Husbands (the Zacs) pretty Much ALL WEEKEND. You Really have no Idea how rare this is, it was so much fun.First we went shopping on Friday we went shopping to get shirts for the family pictures and then went here and there and just hung out it was so fun. Then we got up bright and early on Saturday and went to help clean out Zac's Grandmas old house, I was mainly going so I could one spend time with my boys and two to work on my tan or the lack of one, I did one but not two. I mainly sat in the garage the whole time and joked around and commented on what good little workers the Zacs are! Kim and I did do some manual labor in the heat and we both about died from it. Its a dang good thing we dont need to do that all day! And I sort of got a Flip Flop tan Line. After we had all the stuff loaded up on the trailers and in trucks we headed down to Gunnison to drop it all off. We have fun laughing and singing in the truck and listening to the boys quote The Ringer... "Maybe he needs mouth to mouth Lynn"... It still makes me laugh! Once we dropped all the stuff off we headed to the Bare Naked Chicken for some dinner...But it was closed down so we went to Shellies started the Jute Box and ate Hamburgers and Fries. Then Headed out to Yuba! But by the time we were going past it it was like 8 and we decided that it wasnt a good idea to stop in. :( I am sure we missed out on so much fun with Nic and Chels! maybe next time. We got home about 10 and headed up to the hot tub to relax. It wasnt very relaxing at first though. Dont people know that Hot Tubs are not for children to swim in, or to do your yoga in, and require proper swim wear, not a bra and shorts?? Sunday was Austy posty's Birthday he turned the BIG 20!! Then we went to Memory Grove and took Family Pictures. Which I will post Later!! calm Down, Karley took them and they turned out so Cute!!! I am really excited for her to do mine and Zac's pictures!

I dont believe in Love at first sight.

I want to change the world.

I think that the greatest compelment is for some one to tell you that you are Beautiful. Because I dont think it means just on the outside.

You should tell yourself you look good everyday before you leave the house.

I gossip to much

I am selfish.

I am spoiled.

I am good at throwing fits.

I want to dance like I did in high school.

Happy Birthday Huziband And my new hair. LOL

So Saturday I went to the Eye doctor cuz I cant see the street signs when I drive until I am really close to them and I am blind at night seriously blind... so he does his little exam or whatever and takes this really cool picture of the inside of my eye balls like you can see all the veins and what not in there, then he tells me looks like here you have increased levels of stress ( well duh I was only put in the hospital for a day cuz of it like I said on the little paper you had me fill out) he showed me how some of my veins cross arteries in my eye thats how he could tell my stress level, then he says and you will also need READING GLASSES.... Wait just one second, I can see just fine up close and just fine when I read please tell me why I am in need of reading glasses??? Well apparently they help correct you vision so when I sit here all day long and stare at the computer I am straining my eyes of something so when I drive home I cant see... I dont really know I am not an eye doctor.. But I am getting these really cute glasses that I have to where when I am at work, when I read, when I watch tv and movies. But not when I drive... So pretty much all the time, and this should correct my blindness... Good deal right??

Things I have been up too.

2009-06-12T09:42:00.009-06:00

I get bored pretty easy, so I usually read during that time but... I have read all the books that I have and borrowed a few from my mom so I really didnt have much to do so I called up my mother and she gave me the pattern to make these cute cute reversible table runners! Here the Americana one that I made for my Mother-in-law I also am making a Similar one for Brandi.

And Here is the Flip side That is fall> I love love this side!!
It is really hard to tell in these pictures but they are quilted. I didnt get a picture of the one that I made for Chelsea for her Birthday but it was really cute too.

And dont forget about that when it pores rain my basement floods.. This year we were prepared for it though and when it started coming in the rain gutter we started sucking it out so none came in to the house... Zac unloaded about 16 buckets of out shopvac full out side before the rain finally stopped coming in. Here are the fun pictures. Oh plus the gigantic weed that was to tall and heavy it started to fall over...
Here comes the flood!!! And parts of the weed! (by weed I mean milkweed plant)

Here is Zac Vacuuming up the water!!
You cant really see the water coming in on this one, I was not brave enough ti stick my head out when the water was shooting out of here.. But the water comes down the rain gutter in the garden in the front and tunnels under the unproperly backfilled foundation around the window well and out the seams and by the concreate. Filling up the window well.
This is one of the last gross muddy water buckets we took out..
Here is the poor milkweed plant that hopefully has died from overwatering...

Memorial Day Weekend

2009-05-26T12:02:00.004-06:00

This past weekend we went camping for Memorial Day. It was so much fun. We only had one major injury and some minor sunburnage. If I was smart I would have put on the sunscreen that I took with me but noo... I was stupid and failed to do so! Here are some of the pictures from the Trip.

Memorial Day

2009-05-21T14:55:00.010-06:00

Last weekend we had a BBQ at Alicia's and then walked over to My Grandma and Grandpa Grave for Memorial Day because most of us will be out of town. It was really fun to be that close that we could walk and enjoy the weather. Plus the boys cleaned up the grass and weeds that were hanging over the head stone. Here are some pictures of all of us there.Cleaning off the Grass and weeds from the Headstone.

Here is the Beautiful headstone all cleaned up.

All Of us Minus Alicia. I didn't realize until now that Matt and Gentry are giving bunny ears and Jillian is flipping her hair LOL

All of us Minus me and bunny ears and hair flipping..

When we were eating dinner the kiddos were flipping on the tramp and here are pics of Evans Back Flip!! He is so crazy. I tried to get some of the girls but when they were up to flip Evan the little stinker would cut in and flip.. I was able to get one of Bells.

Evan Mid Air

Later another Mid Air

Here is the one of Bells doing some Elbow front flip thingy.

Matt doings his flip.

Good News

2009-05-19T09:51:00.001-06:00

So I was pretty bummed out about not getting my Camera due to the Stupid tub until Friday Zac surprised me and got me a Nikon Coolpix!!! (The one with Ashton in the commercial) It is so cool! it has the touch screen and everything. Yay! Just wanted you all to know. LOL

Updates

2009-05-05T16:32:00.002-06:00

So I have one more week in my sentence (lol) for the back scratches... YAY I could not be more happy... Until.... Zac calls me and tells me that there is a crack in our tub!! And that is needs to be replaced soon. So him being a plumber and all calls up his connections and gets a pretty good deal on a new tub. But since our tub is a full fiberglass encloser and we are going to be replacing it with a regular tub we need to tile up the walls. And it is going to look majorly stupid if we have tile on the walls and then linoleum ( probably spelled wrong) on the floors, and hopefully there hasn't been much water leaking under the floor!! So we need to re tile that and the upstairs bath so that they match and then down the road we are going to have to do the kitchen and entry because I am not going to have a half and half house!! So the chances of me getting a new camera have like blow out the window :( I am pretty upset but what can you do. " Sh.. It happens" So it might be even longer before there are pictures up here... Maybe by some miracle I will come across my current camera charger. LOL

Pictures!!!! YAY

2009-04-23T10:04:00.004-06:00

Okay okay here are the pictures from Wendover....

On the beds they had these long tube pillows and of Course the boys had to have a sword fight.... Here is Zac and Zac pillow fighting..
I dont even know what he is doing.... Maybe trying to ride into the night??

This is the only way you can take a picture of Zac ... When he has no idea... LOL
Our view of the State line out the window
Me and Zac in front of the Mirrored wall...

Made a Deal with the Devil???

2009-04-14T09:22:00.002-06:00

So I was sick and tired of having a broken Camera... The zoom doesnt work and I can never find the charger and It doesnt take very good pictures, I have been bugging zac about getting me a new one and then when we went camping and I wanted so bad to take pictures and couldnt I made a deal with him.... That I would scratch his back for 22:30 minutes every night for 30 days and I get a new camera. Sounds good right? It has been 2 days and I am so done already!!! I totally feel like I have sold my soul to the devil or something. I just cant get out of it now! I am a sucker... But hey at least you all will have pictures to look at in a month huh?

I know I know.....

2009-04-07T16:04:00.002-06:00

Also Zac and I with Zac and Kim and a bunch of Kim's work Peeps took a trip to Wendover! It was so fun (my first time) and I have about 3 or 4 pictures from that but my camera died :( and I have yet to find my charger so it might be an even longer while til I have any more new pictures. Sorry Folks. I am going to No Name this weekend Easter and I am so excited I cant even tell you!

Stupid Economy!!

2009-02-13T12:16:00.003-07:00

I was recently laid off from my job and I have been out of work for like 2 weeks and just so that you all are aware it sucks!!! I get so depressed that I get mad and yell at Zac then I just bust up crying! He is starting to show me how great a guy he really is. He just sits there and lets me get angry then hugs me while I cry! I know that it is so hard for him too and being the only one working I am sure that he wants to yell and cry sometimes too. When I first got laid off I thought that I would catch up on old sewing projects that I cast aside and maybe work out and I did! I am almost finished with this Rag Quilt that I have been kinda working on and such since we lived with Zacs mom and Todd (mind you this was right after we got married 2 and a half years ago and we lived there for 2 months) And I lost 12 pounds on the WII Fit!! Ya from a video Game I know! I am trying to stay up beat and positive. I no longer have the internet at home so when I get some more updates I will have to take a trip (and pack a lunch LOL) out to my parents. Love you all~~

I am such a slacker!!!

2009-01-06T08:55:00.002-07:00

Hey all!! I am such a slacker. Nothing has really happened that I can talk about. Sorry :) We had a nice holiday. Zac got me cowboy boots. LOL. He also got me a beautiful diamond star necklace!! He picked it out himself and surprised me he did really good! He got boots and clothes from me that he picked out himself!! He is so hard to shop for. Zacs Mom and Todd got me the prettiest jewlery box!! I love it. We also got money and we bought a WII. It is so fun!! I did the fitness test and I was 58 then i did it again and was 47 so I decided that I would do the training and do it again and now I am 29!! Right on that is only what 6 years older than I am now. Sad I know. It is really funny to watch boxing and stuff!! We have everyone come over and play all the time. First it was poker now it is the Wii. I will see if I can get some pics to post. Til then see ya!

2008-10-24T08:15:00.000-06:00

Yesterday totally sucked.. I was super busy at work and really tired. I was late, then I had a 2 hour long meeting, did not go to costco with my boss to return that DVD player, was unsuccesful in finding a MICR for the new printer we got, almost fell right on my face and Zac locked his keys in his truck (we only have one key) that also had the key to his tool box on it which ended up being unlocked so he could leave. So we had to jerry rigg this wire looking thing and a stake. It was actually really funny, Zac wedged the stake thing into the side of the door and Cam stuck the wire loop thing through the opening, then Zac ran to the other side of the truck to guide Cam on to the handle to pull it open. They tried unsuccesfully many times but ended up getting it open!! YAY! Then I went a hung out with Brittany, all we did was watch TV but seriously this is going to sound pathetic. I had the most fun that I have had in a long time!! And through out my whole crappy day I was in such a good mood. I dont know what it was I just didnt get up set about it all. Laughed instead of cried. You know how it goes. So I have a boring weekend a head of me so I am pretty glad that I got to have fun.

2008-10-20T11:56:00.001-06:00

What a Fun Monday to start Blogging

2008-10-20T11:47:00.000-06:00

Well almost everyone I know is a blogger so I thought I would give it a go. I am pretty new at all this and I am not really sure what to tell ya. I am married to Zac. He is great (most of the time) but what husband is perfect? I am a pretty perfect wife.... Ha ha Just kidding we all have our faults. We are currently selling our home. Which sucks but this is what happens when you think you can afford everything. You cant. I have a good job with a good company, So does my hubby. We punch the clock for the same good company. I am really excited for the holidays. I love Christmas!! I love the season and most everyone is in a good mood. It makes me really miss working at Roberts. I worked there about 2 1/2 years. I loved it. I walk into a craft store and instanly miss it. Anyways, Zac and I live a pretty normal life. We hang out with friends, go riding and like to be with Family. Love to camp and be out doors. Pretty Normal. Well I hope this went good... Who knows. who really cares? Peace out!
