New Place

This morning, I slept through my alarm, as per the usual daily routine, got ready, and picked up the key to my new apartment. From the hour I've spent in it before having to go to work, I LOVE IT!!! When we first took a tour of an apartment, the furniture was as great as to be expected - aka, it was outdated, worn down, but functional. In the apartment we were actually put into, the furniture is wonderful! Not to mention, knowing all of your roommates makes planning the organization of common areas much easier (like the pantry - yeah, I have a pantry!). I'm probably about half way moved in. Tomorrow I'm going to try to get the rest of my kitchen stuff in as well as extra clothes I wont be needing in the next 5 days. Anyway, just wanted to share my excitement with everyone!

Raining Ice and Dogs

So, my most recent escapades have been a blast! If you've talked to me at all when I've been away from home know that I miss my dog. Many of you don't agree, as evidenced as your lack of having a dog for your kids yet, but I just love dogs. To me, they're therapeutic - dogs love you no matter what. So, last Monday three people I work with and I went up to the Humane Society of Utah. We played with dogs for about two hours before having to head back down to Provo. It was so great!

We also had FHE that night. We went ice blocking - the first time for me since about my sophomore year in high school. Like most of our FHE activities, it was tons of fun. I've got some beautiful bruises on my elbow that Mom and Tina can attest to. And you all know me, I love me some bruises!
