Some Pig!

Yeah, yeah, I'm watching Charlotte's Web, be jealous. :) We finished reading the book a couple weeks ago at school and the kids were able to watch the movie, for the most part, yesterday during our half day of school. Of course, I didn't get to really enjoy it so I am doing that now. :)

It sure has been a long time since I have been on here. I'm trying to figure out what has happened since then. I have a horrible memory . . . :/. I guess I can start with today. :)

This morning I picked up Karl from work and we came home to get ready to help the Hill's move their things from their old apartment to their new one. It is so exciting to move! I know can you believe I'm saying that. I like to help others move. :) Hopefully this summer we will have all of our things unpacked and ready to go so that our house is done, or at least all unpacked. :) On Tuesday school was canceled due to the snow, which no I didn't get to go out and play in, I was so stinking tired that I let Karl and Kiana play in it and I took a morning nap, or I guess an extension of my night's sleep. :) We both woke up at 11 and worked on the house until late that night. We cleaned the floors throughout the entire house, moved the table in the kitchen and picked up/organized in there, moved the pantry, moved the office into the living room from Amanda's room, picked up our room and did most of all the laundry, and reorganized and moved around Amanda's room to where it actually looks like a room now and we can have guests. :) It was a very productive day and we were so happy to be able to work on it.

We just finished our 1st week of the 5th six weeks, only 12 more weeks of school . . . crazy, huh? Oh, and did I mention that we have our last day of school on a Saturday?! Thanks to San Angelo ISD and the snow, we will have the last day, in fact, on a Saturday. :/ It will be interesting to say the least. It will work out though. I am just excited that March is almost here and that means Spring Break is almost here, too!!! I cannot wait for it to get here, cuz that means my birthday will be here as well. :) 23 . . . wow, pretty crazy if you ask me. Getting old, getting old.

We had a security system installed a couple weeks ago and I absolutely love it. It definitely has helped me to feel more safe at home by myself. It also tells us what the weather will be on the next day which really helps me, too. I'm just glad that we were able to have it installed. Just another bill, but a good one, I think. :)

So we decided this week that we are going to go on vacation this summer to . . . OHIO! Yeppers, we are going to take 4 days to drive up there and just experience the trek up there then spend 3 or 4 days with grandma at her house, then take 2 days to come on home. It is going to be a lot of fun, for sure. I am super excited!

Well, I think I am going to probably go to bed here pretty soon, even though I had a 5 hour nap today. Oh well, apparently I needed it, right?

Adios!

If this happens one more time . . .

Anyone know a good cell phone service provider? This is the second time that we worked with someone at AT&T and I am about ready to switch providers. We went in there today to get my phone moved to Karl's plan, which we had to get a form filled out by my mom (well, kinda :), it helps when I can sign like mom; it's not like I didn't have her permission) in order to do so. We walked in and talked to this guy, gave him the form, and we thought that he understodd what we needed to be done and he just started going. We got to the point where I would pick out a phone and he started getting stuff ready and I re-asked him, after he wanted to know what number I wanted to use for it, if my phone was now on Karl's plan and he just went crazy on us. Basically he said that we never told him that that is what we wanted. He was very rude, basically saying that it was our fault that he did all this work for nothing. It was very disheartening and I really wanted to tell him to forge...

New Journey . . . Diamond Club

What does it take to make a diamond? Any ideas? According to Wikipedia, you know the source for all things, a diamond is "formed at high temperature[s] and pressure". Karl and I are excited to announce that we will be taking part in journey. A journey that will, hopefully, push us to Diamond. It will take a lot of work but we are excited for this opportunity for our team. What is Diamond Club? Why is this so exciting? Maybe this video will explain it better. Diamond Club creates a great opportunity for EVERYONE! It allows Karl and I to travel to areas that want to grow and also allows for new members to receive additional products with their enrollment and subsequent LRP orders. Free stuff??? Yes, please!!! It really is a great opportunity for everyone on our team. We are looking forward to the immense growth that will happen because of this wonderful opportunity. So you may be asking, how do I get involved? What does this look like exactly? Basically we...

Writer's Corner Number 8

Typed from written Journal Entry: I thought I’d change it up a bit and try writing in journal form tonight. I am also curious to see the difference in length of writing for both writing formats. Dr. Semingson suggested incorporating pictures into our journal writings/posts. I don’t have any pics from growing up – they are all at my dad’s house in Michigan – but I can start adding new pics from Alaska, especially when it comes time to talk about our honeymoon adventures there. Today I want to start by talking about earthquakes. I want to preface this “talk” with a story from when I moved to Texas. Not long into the start of my 7th grade year we practice emergency drills. I remember one of my teachers talking about what to do in case of an emergency: crouch down with your head near a wall and cover your head. I remember thinking that getting near a wall wouldn’t be the safest thing in the world but I didn’t argue – I didn’t know what that emergency drill was for. Now that I’m olde...
