Merry Halloween?

Wyoming has been presenting us with this:
(not at all unusual btw)




Juno was freaking out, it's her first snow experience!

As my friend told me today, " It's like kitty heaven --everything is moving in the sky!!"

I've been getting myself pumped up anyway for this "fall" festivity that is Halloween. Only my favorite. Pumpkin Caaand--daaahyy! Austin is ready to carve pumpkins this coming weekend! Customers at work always comment on my nails through the drive-thru... so I surprised them with some Holiday Spirit. 



Orange coat, green tips, sharpie face and a clear coat sure spreads some holiday scares... ;)

Since I have a long day Tuesdays and Thursdays (Austin just always has long days haha) my friend who also waits around for his class for a few hours ( hey... we ride the bus and can't go home easily) was talking about horseshoes, chess, and darts etc. We got the brilliant idea to play chess in between classes, and it started with a paper board and paper towel cut-out pieces. I don't have a board, but I have legit stone pieces. So tonight I made a board that's a cloth drawstring bag for easy travel :)


Now I have to learn poker really well too, because work has a poker night with some peeps. LOVE strategy games, and so does Austin. He can't wait to get outta midterms so he can play too!

On another note, I was sooo excited to do Insanity not missing a single day. The past two times I just did it through, making up days if I missed one. This time I was so excited to beast through it since I've already lost the weight and wanted to do muscle toning. Nope. I definitely got sick with exhaustion and spilled my beans one morning after work and said screw it for two days. Midterms and working almost full time and dystonia sometimes just mixes the perfect storm! That left me with a poster like this... So chin up and I'm repeating this week through. 


Third time's a charm, and Adidas is lucky. 


This girl's gotta get Insane! xoxo from Wyoming!

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
