Thursday and Friday

Rough day yesterday. 6 hour shift at work then home to a house full of anger. My roommate that I was having drama with has now moved out! But She was not a happy camper yesterday. She was finishing moving the last of her things. And then once she was gone I rearranged the furniture! It has opened up the apartment a lot. It's also clean now! It's amazing! I love coming home to a clean apt. Today was a good day. a little drawn out but still good. Glad to be home. I miss my sweet husband but it wont be much longer! I can't believe it's almost the end of April already. I took Daniel to the airport just over a month ago. It amazes me. Daniel makes me so happy. I can't wait for it to be August so I can see him! Life seems so insignificant without him around. It's funny how we have only spent 15 days together from point when we started talking a year and 2 months ago to now. It amazes me that I can be so in love with him miss him so much and only have spent so little time with him. I love you Dan! Always and Forever!

water under the bridge

So my roommate is finally moving. All the drama will finally be over! I got so excited today when I saw her packing up so tonight when she left I started pulling all her kitchen stuff out and putting it in bags so she can leave sooner. I have work overnight tonight. It isn't so bad. I love the twins and their mom. She has been a great help to me. Given me lots of military wife advice (her hubby is Air Force) and roommate advice. I love having people who can help! I hope I can be as good a friend to other girls when I become older!

Cereal and Laundry

Work was work... haha better than yesterday. Overall today has been a good day. Got a new wireless router and a new shower curtain for my bathroom.... one of my roommates is moving out and the router and shower curtain are hers so I bought new ones so when she moves I don't have to worry about it. Now I am chilling in my room watching the old TV show Alias with Jennifer Garner, eating fruit loops and waiting to move laundry. I lead an exciting life... not really!

YUMMMMMM

baseball and couches

Monday.... What a day

I'm re-writing this post due to the fact that I have no more upset feelings. No need to write in anger yet sometimes we all say things we wish we hadn't luckily since mine was on a blog I was able to erase and start over.

Monday truly was an interesting day. Work wasn't so bad. The ladies were all pretty chill. Then I got to come home and get ready for my grandparents old couch my new couch. Good memories on that couch! Then back to work. Grandma and I went from work to Jackson's baseball game. They were playing my Jr. High It's a Jr. High Rival game. Stapley Sabercats vs. Poston Panthers. My cousin plays for Poston and played 2nd base last night. He had a great night! His team however.... sadly lost 12-2. At the bottom of the 4th I believe Panthers were coming off the field and an assistant coach went after one of the boys for something and used the F word. Some parents and grandparents of another player started yelling for the assistant coach to be thrown out of the game. The assistant coach was asked to leave and then came up into the stands and started yelling at the parents and grandparents. MY dad stepped in and played peace maker.... like he always does. after that there was one more to bat and the game was over. There were a lot of hard feelings and bad moods amongst some of the adults last night. but at least there was something to watch haha. Left there and went to my grandma's to pick up the couch. (I was so excited). My dad met me there and he and my grandpa loaded it into the bed of my truck and dad and I drove over to the apt. I brought up the cushions and moved the table the whole time my roommate and her fiance are just sitting watching a movie. I had to call a head and ask her to turn the AC off. She thought it needed to be on a night with a low of 60. Anyway, dad and I get the couch up the stairs and my dad doesn't seem to think I know what I am doing. Even though I had just moved my old couch out. Plus I remembered what needed to be done so it would make it easier on my father. I told him the open part where the cushions would go needed to be up with the back of the couch down. After trying to explain it several times my roommates fiance decides he'd do better than me. I was quite certain I had it. He finally went back and sat down. I got my dad to understand and we got the couch inside just like I knew we would one it was at the angle I had described. Got it in set it down and my dad and I went downstairs to talk. It was an interesting conversation. then I went back upstairs finished putting the cushions back on it and moving the coffee table. Then went in my room. and cleaned up my room. I was able to make some space and today I'm moving the TV and the stand it was on into my room since they are mine so I can watch stuff in my room and not interfere with what anyone else is doing. It'll be nice to watch movies in my room and not strain my eyes to watch it on the computer screen. It's beautiful outside. It's 55 out with a high of 87 and another low of 60..... partly cloudy with lots of chance of happiness today! Super excited!

POUNCE

So Sunday! Loved Church! Great talks about temple work! Super excited to get my endowments out! I start Temple Prep Wednesday! WOOT WOOT!!!! Sunday nights traditionally with my Mannes side of the family (dad's side) is card night or game night. We have gone through series of games, ticket to ride... hearts... hand and foot... now POUNCE! It is like team solitaire racing against other teams! So stinking fun! I pounced for the VERY first time which means I got all 11 cards out of my hand before anyone else. 11 cards doesn't sound hard but trust me it is! I am an official pounce player now. So excited about that one! I love family game night. Even if I don't play I love just being around my family. It's always a laugh about something!
