Good Carn, Good Taters, Gooood company, GOOD PARTY! Tanner was awesome help. All the girly cousins flocked around Tanner. I love the hugs from the Aunts and Uncles, and cousins!

Sum sum,- sum sum, sum sum, summertime. Thank-you Amie for spending some of your well-deserved time off with me. p.s. your cookies are the best!

Love is in the air?!

For the most part this last week was a really good one. I finished everything I needed to do to update my status at "Hope Group" to active. I went hiking. Yes, hiking. If my lungs and my legs could have kept up with my mouth it would have been a breeze. It was such a beautiful day. I went with my friend Sherri (Red) Shell. We had such a good time. Sherri is a good girl. Very fun. Thurs. Opening night of "West Side Story" Amie played "Velma" that girl has such nice legs. Not so fond of Docs choice. (I like a rest from that kinda stuff) However, it was very fun to watch all of the dancing. Fri. Pizza and gab session with Rosemary Perkins. Sat. afternoon, Rosemarry, Sylvia Burr, and Tracie went to see the play again. I think I liked it even better the 2nd time. This morning I wasn't sure I'd see the faces of my two youngest or not (knowing Amie would have been out late after the cast party) But just into the first verse here they came. I LOVE sitting in the middle of those two sweet kids!

Ya know I believe I have spent to much time trying to get this thing "off the ground" so to speak that there hasn't been a lot of journaling going on. I have a had a lot of things to think about to good some not so good. I guess it's kinda "the good the bad and the ugly. I think I'll just keep most of the yuck to myself and hope that what "they" say is true. . . it'll all come out in the wash. Ok! since it's technically Mon. Feb. 28, 2011, I will start my new job that I am very excited for tomorrow!. I also must kick it up a notch and start studying for the ncct test. To get certified. MA was good enough for me, but I guess CMA well. . . we'll see. I've been waiting for Tracie to show her Sweet face since 11:00 p.m. she said she was going to get gas. I would have the police already looking except that she does this all the time. UGH! We will be renegotiating her contract!

New Beginnings, I hope will be just that. Tonight I went with Amie to New Beginnings. We are making new friends in the ward and getting reacquainted with old friends. Amie is such a wonderful example of the Young Womens progam at it best!

I am quickly becoming old and grey trying to figure this whole blog thing out. No wonder they named it blah-g!

Wheeeeeeeeew! I finally finished school. What a ride. I really enjoyed my externship @ AZ. Vascular Surgery Consultants. Everyone was patient with me including the patients. It was so rewarding when patients would say things like "you are so gentle" At Family Dr.s I gave several shots, and I one cute old guy that get shots every month said "that was the best one, it didn't even hurt" yea. When I was finished at AVSC. they gave me a cake, and a "Good Luck" card that everyone had signed and a Visa gift card. I wish I would have taken pictures. Linsay gave me one of those "I had to get this for you" prizes. The quote on it sums up my whole experience. YOUR JOURNEY HAS MOLDED YOU FOR YOUR GREATER GOOD, AND IT WAS EXACTLY WHAT IT NEEDED TO BE. DON'T THINK THAT YOU'VE LOST TIME. IT TOOK EACH AND EVERY SITUATION YOU HAVE ENCOUNTERED TO BRING YOU TO THE NOW. AND NOW IS RIGHT ON TIME. Now I'm searching for a job. Like everyone else.
