5 down, 5 to go…

Today I completed day 4 of my new job.  Yeah, I got a job in Lindon, doing basically exactly what I was doing before (Payroll Specialist).  So far I love it and I love the people.  I don’t love the drive, but I know I’ll get used to it, especially since when I worked for […]

Journal Entry

I was looking through some of my old Journals today (which I do every once in a while when I’m working on my book, to get a “refresher” on memories) and came across this entry and it made me smile. (and obviously it has nothing to do with my book 😛 ) 9/23/2003 Today is […]

Cloud 9… or 100.

A couple posts ago, I mentioned that I had written Dustin’s parents a letter (and in comments, mentioned that they did in fact pick it up).  I talked to a couple of my “Birth Mother” friends about my feelings regarding this letter.  I write to them often.  At least a few times a year, just […]

In This House…

      I actually stole this from Heather’s blog, but I really liked it.  This reminds me so much of my family.  I think I would hang this on a wall in our house if I could find it.  

Surreal

This morning at 5:18 AM, my Great-nephew (no official name yet) was born.  5 lbs. 14 oz. and 20 1/2 inches long.  It’s still very surreal to me that Jake is a Dad.  Jake has kind of always been (and probably will always be) my “baby”.  I was only 8 years old when he was […]

Just the way it is

Skylar and Cassie got married on Saturday!  It was an awesome wedding.  I cried (not surprising), especially watching Skylar and Cassie take their first dance as a married couple, then even moreso when Cassie danced with her Dad.  LOL  I’m such a baby.  But she looked beautiful and it was one of the funnest, laid […]

Memories

Growing up in Santaquin, our “front” bathroom (we called it that because it was toward the “front” of the house and the second bathroom was the “back” of the house…) was a narrow, fairly small bathroom with no windows other than a sky-light.  The hallway through our house was very narrow as well, which prevented […]

1 Year Later

This morning after Gideon and I came in from playing outside for a bit, I asked if he wanted a treat and of course he ran straight for his “bed” – where his crate used to be and he still knows that the area where it used to be is “bed”.  I wanted to take […]

Busy, happy week.

This past week, (starting Thursday, June 23rd) has been pretty busy.  In a good way.  First of all, Thursday morning started with going to the hospital to hang out with David while Harmony and Brian went in for a c-section.  A few hours later (around 10:55 AM) Lydia Avigael was born.  8 lbs. 11 oz. […]

First of all, the job interview I mentioned in the previous post… well, I doubt that’s gonna happen.  For one, when they called me, they told me they were interviewing myself and one other person that they had previously interviewed months ago.  Then I called back a couple days later and was told by a […]
