Dissapointment

Do you ever have those days, weeks, months, when all you do is dissappoint those around you or are just surrounding by things to bring you down. I feel like this has been me for the past few weeks - especially in the worlds of school, both grad and elem. I will be receiving Bs for the first time in my graduate career and have been really tired and unmoticated at school. It has definitely been a rough few weeks. I am looking forward to the holidays and getting over all this school stuff. ;)

Let's see, this week in a nutshell. We went and hung out with Sharon and Steph Friday night for a while, talking a little about the cruise and a little about life. Saturday night we went back up to the hospital to hang out with those same two great people plus Nat, Mara, and the kids, which is always a blast. I absolutely love hanging out with them and learning about babies and all their little needs.

Sunday, we went up to the school and worked on the classroom for a little bit then went outside and worked at the Fall Festival. We had fun and it was good to see the kids outside of school - although we left as soon as we could because I had caught onto something and my head was all full and yucky. Since then, we had been sick and started feeling better on Wednesday. Tuesday and Wednesday turned into homework nights for me and I wasn't able to finish the one assignment until 11:45 pm on Thursday - it was due at 11:59 pm. Sad part - it wasn't totally completed. :( Oh well, remember the month of dissapointment.

Thursday we went to Teri's to talk about our house and begin the process of updating/renovating the house and we wanted to see how much we could put into it without losing money. We basically shot ideas at her and she shot ideas at us and now we have an amazing list of things to do - now it's just the putting a price to it to really see what we can do. I am so excited! Tonight, we plan to just chill at the house and rest. Sound great or what?

For the weekend we are just cleaning, working, and doing homework. I want to begin the night chilling so - I will talk to ya later!

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...
