T-Shirts

Today was just one of those days. And also a day I was reminded the Lord puts people in our lives for a reason, no matter how small the incident may seem. 

I've had four tests in a row. Late nights...

 

Today I had 140 minutes to make it to Cheyenne and back in time to take a lab test in class. Why did I go to Cheyenne? To turn in this baby. My dad randomly called me this morning while I was on the road ready to turn the application in and calmed my nerves. Thanks Dad! And Mom texted me too same time!

So yeah, it's in! Please pray for me!


I was just frustrated because I was on a time crunch, and the trip to Cheyenne involves mountains yadda yadda. So when I arrived back in Laramie late to class, I was hiding out in the hallway listening in on the last 8 min of the lecture section of my Anatomy class. Larry the janitor who is just so sweet came up to talk to me right in front of the doorway, and I quickly let him know I was sneaking around... this professor loves to make a big deal when you walk in late, so I was going to sneak in when everyone came back from break for the quiz and second lecture. He was super funny because he asked, "Which class?" and when I told him who it was he did the big "Ohh..." and thought it was hilarious because this professor is so notorious for late-walk-ins. I told Larry why I was late and sneaking around and that I had just had a plain-old bad day. He pointed to his shirt and said, "Well these shirts are free in Student Services, go get one!"

Larry, you are awesome and you don't know how happy that little gesture made me! I had to get the color he had just to remember that!



Ain't that the truth.

Then Austin surprised me with a UW Law school shirt!



One of my close friends texted me today when Austin left for his studies, and when I was feeling lonely. Xoxo to you!

The cherry on top of the day was when my little pen pal Miss Mia (my little sister) sent a letter that I received today. I always begin my letter with: From the Land of the Jackalopes. I asked her to draw me a Jackalope, and I got to open this little guy up smiling at me ;)

I love all you people in my life. You make it the best. 


xoxo, From the Land of the Jackalopes

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
