Pizza makes Everyone happy right?

This has been by far the craziest... meanest, baddest semester for both of us.

But good news is I survived my most feared class....and well! Austin did a lot of his senior writing classes for the most part, and next semester applications go in! The guy has managed to do so awesome that every last school has waived his fee for applying! (I think Nebraska we might have to pay... but yay!) Something like 13 schools each $50-$80? Go Austie! For those of you asking, most of his applications don't even need to be turned in until March 2013... I assure you there will be an awesome post when we find out!

I get CPR certification, and CNA classes start in February! And of course my favorite, my BFA!

Seven plates people, I have done seven pieces with copper plates!

And you know what I did last night when finals finally calmed a bit?

I read this bad boy. It's my second love.

If anyone has good books, I'm totally into it! Austin, I'm sure, doesn't ever want to read a book again after this semester. He had two 20 page papers, and two 10 pagers? Yuuuck.

Plus he kept getting Amazon.com boxes with more and more research books. I was kind of jealous so I used my birthday art card to Dick Blicks and ordered myself a Guerilla Box Painter. I cannot wait till I can paint for FUN!

Oh, and just some word of advice on keeping husbands happy during finals,

save all the pizza from class. I can't eat it anyway... Austin has scored. I dunno why my professors keep bribing my classes with pizza, but I always end up with a box of it staring me in my gluten-intolerant face. So I do, I take some. But then I give it to Austin which = no more finals grumps.

To Be Honest.

I've been thinking a lot, and a lot has been going on. Lorde radio on Pandora is a good way to zone out. So is sewing, and doing all those other mindless activities I love, and that keep me happy. I haven't written on this blog because to be honest, it's been difficult lately. To get the sob story quick and out of the way, I've been in a self-pity mode, and super down on myself. I had a very difficult time at BYU because of a crappy life occurrence that made the decision to leave the best decision of my life. It was hard to get my BFA between the BYU's when I transferred, and I couldn't work on a second diploma I was seeking. I ended up with the most amazing BFA situation though, and that has been a blessing. (And the most awesome thing happened too, obviously. --marriage! I would never ever change that!) The last year into my BFA I found out definitive stuff about my dystonia, including no children. And the nursing program chase has not be

Grateful.

Austin has been the best support. I definitely married out of my league. He's been very proactive in finding lots of healthy things for my recommended diet (by the neurological disorder peeps, and an intolerance.) because my hemidystonia has had less spasms and cramps. As of lately, brown rice bread! Seriously, it's great even if you don't need wheat-free. It's a nice change of pace! It's sweet and light. .:Recipe Here:. We grind our own brown rice to save money. Winco here in Idaho has the best deal for bulk brown rice :) Here's a crazy picture of my hand, this was actually the first spasm/cramp I've had in a bit. (Haha, least my nails are painted ;) ) This is actually why (for those of you who've asked) Intaglio will not be my last degree. I was informed that I've got a good chance of this happening to my right side too. Art might get interesting! But I plan to keep doing it as a career too, no matter what!

Moonrise Bunnies

Thank you for the chocolate bunnies Carmen Family!! we may or may have not remembered it was easter? Such a Surprise! In sad news, our favorite video store is going out of business. We loved getting recommendations from the people who worked there. Austin and I had no idea our favorite date spot was going out and went to go get a movie.... and we ended up with this sweet stack!! (They sold them waaay discounted. We got all of these for the price of two new DVDs!) It was funny because when we walked in and realized what was going on, we freaked out because we wanted our favorite movies! Everything Illuminated and Moonrise Kingdom (among others but these were the first ones that came to mind) And Everything Illuminated was gone! Austin freaked because he couldn't remember what Moonrise Kingdom was called. He said... EDWARD NORTON. WHICH ONE WAS THAT?? Of course I look at him like wtf are you talking about the Hulk or the Painted Veil or something? Fig
