** I did a guest post over on Miki's blog the other day! I forgot to link it up when she posted it on Tuesday, but her blog is awesome! You should go check it out you won't regret it. It's here. Because I forgot to post it, I figured I would put the post here for you guys to enjoy too!**

Hey guys! Miki asked me to guest post while she was partying it up in Powell! While i'm insanely jealous that she's having so much fun while i'm stuck in a classroom this is a BIG day for me. I have never guest posted before. That's right you heard me...NEVER. Hopefully I do ok, and hey if you like what you read you can come over to my little blog (and by little I mean just started it) and follow along at heresyouandme.blogspot.com. Here we go.


1. What is your favorite photo of yourself and why?

7. What do you see yourself doing in 5 years?

Seeing as how I graduate nursing school in 7 months, I would hope that I will be working as an RN. I don't know where or what department yet, but I will be a nurse. It's what I've always wanted to do, and i'm so close I can taste it. I also hope to be a mama. I know this sounds dumb, and I never wanted to be one of those girls...but I want babies and I want them yesterday. The baby hunger just keeps getting worse the closer and closer I get to graduating. Hopefully my sweet husband will be finished with school as well, and we can get past this "school" phase that we at in life right now.

8. What is one thing about you that is shocking or unexpected?

I'm not a real blonde...No just kidding...but really. Through the ages of 16-19 I was the WORST driver. Like I had a ticket from every city from Draper to Salt lake (plus one in Nephi from my drive down to vegas). You think i'm exaggerating? After  I was married I paid almost $1000 in speeding tickets to about 4 different cities. In those 3 years from 16-19 I had 3 accidents on my record, and my license was suspended for 6 months..and I still drove on it...and got caught. I'm lucky my car didn't get impounded. After we were married we had to go down to one car between the two of us for almost a year because our insurance payments were through the roof. Like $400 a month, for one car, and only liability through the roof. But In the last 5 years I haven't had one ticket, not even a parking ticket. I learned my lesson.


Thanks for letting me guest post Miki! I hope you all enjoyed my very first guest post, and I hope Miki and her honey are living it up down in Powell!

Does anyone just come home and think "I absolutely hate my job?" Am I the only one? Seriously I LOVE what I do. I hate the politics, the drama, the backbiting, and just feeling like you are walking on egg shells all the time. 7 months and I can move on to bigger and better things, but for now i'm mentally exhausted. Oh well. Rant over. Sorry I've been MIA, new semester is kicking my butt. Don't laugh, but this is the first time i've ever had 3 classes at a time. Between all the work drama and school craziness I basically come home, brush my teeth, and immediately fall asleep. I promise things will liven up around here. I have a ton of pictures that I need to upload and stories to go along with them. Don't give up on me! For now please enjoy this picture that seems to get me every time. I can't promise that you won't pee your pants.

Well it's official. I started my second to last semester of nursing school today. I'm in denial still. I had 2 weeks off after my summer semester, and I enjoyed every second I had. I read books, washed my hair, caught up on my trash TV, it's been amazing.
    I also caved and FINALLY bought a new car. It's a Honda element or "elephant" as we call it. Seriously best decision I have made so far. All the stress of buying/selling was worth it. I also decided that right after I posted my car to sell, that it would be fun to back into my neighbors car. I did next to nothing to her car, and my poor mazda got the bad end of the deal. The kicker? My car to fix=$90 Her car to fix=$450. Tell me that's not screwed up. Either way I guess I need to be more careful. The parking at our house is insane. Everyone is practically hanging over my driveway, so it was bound to happen at some point.
  Jordan is back in school and i'm back to missing him every day. It's not fair that he has class until 9:30pm and 3 days out of the week I hardly get to see him. Seriously this school phase of our lives is getting pretty old. I'm ready to be adults with careers now. Please and thank you.
   That's all for my rant tonight. I feel bad for neglecting this little blog. I started out really strong, but I refuse to let this fizzle out like so many other things I start.

Oh and p.s. Miley Cyrus? Sick. I believed in her, and hoped she wouldn't pull this kind of crap. I now have no faith in disney channel stars (except Hillary Duff...she rocks.)

Well it's been a crazy couple of weeks around these parts! I almost feel like I lost my "blogging groove."These finals were pretty stressful this summer semester, but I only have 2 more to go! I can't believe it's so close. So here's something short for today.

Things i'm loving

1. I convinced Jordan to let me have a new car. Don't ask me how, but I did. I'm stoked. As long as we can figure out how to have 3 cars until mine sells.

2. We are going out of town this weekend to Jordan's cabin. I can't wait. I need a vacation after this stressful semester, even if it's just for the weekend.

3. My half marathon is coming up on the 31st. I'm excited to say i've done it, but scared because I don't know what to expect.

4. Planning our trip to Japan in next summer for graduation. It's still in the early phases, but I'm already having dreams of going to Japan.

5. Breaking bad is back for the final season. The first episode last night had me hooked.


Things i'm hating

1. That I have to go back to school in like 2 weeks. I haven't had a real break from school since christmas break last year. I'm ready.

2. Work. Ugh it's getting almost unbearable to go back to that place. Luckily I'm down to 1 day a week in like a month.

3. Cleaning my house. For only 2 people, a dog, and sometimes a cat living here it gets insanely messy. I feel like I'm constantly cleaning up.

4. Allergies. Enough said.

5. Car shopping and car selling. As much as I want to have a new car, selling my car and shopping for a new one is just about killing me. Will someone please buy my car so I can enjoy my new one? thanks.

This weekend was SO HOT. We didn't do much so this post won't be a novel, but we did head out to take Rex to the dog park. Dog park in 100 degree weather = Nobody at the dog park. We still had fun even though it felt like death.
