Happy Birthday Dad!!!!

Today, you would be turning 66 and it still feels like yesterday you were here. The loss that we have all experienced, opened a can a worms. It has been a rollercoaster for the past 5 months, and we all express our grief differently, some worse than others. As Megan said it as i was confiding in her.....its me against the world. Accepting that your presence and influence can no longer be apart of my life, i am trying to realize that your influence now will be an abstract rather than a concrete reality. I believe time eases things, but time alone doesn't heal. There are still tender spots that happen unexpectedly with a word or incident. Everyday is different. Death ends a life but it doesn't end the relationship, which is what i am struggling with. We live by losing and leaving and letting go. And sooner or later, with more or less pain, we must all come to know that loss is a lifelong human condition. I love you dad, more than you know. Happy Birthday!

Math!!!

I had my first exam and totally bombed it, 70% is what is came out to be. Most of you know that math and me are not friends. I actually dropped out of it in college back in Utah. I really don't grasp the concept of it. In Utah I had people trying to help but still didn't work. The situation right now, is I am taking it online which means I am learning it myself. Who's idea was it to take it online? haha. Nothing has been more frustrating then this particular class. I have my friend Sarah helping me everyday and its still very difficult. I have two more semesters of math and I will not be doing them online!

"Eclipse"

Now that I am in school again, I have become this reader. I actually just finished two books called "The Twilight" and "New Moon". Both amazing books and I highly recommend them. Now I am reading "Eclipse" which follows the two novels. Its a very intriguing, romantic fantasy. More to come but I do have to write papers on these books by the end of semester.

Happy Birthday Mom!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful mom. She is turning 65! You are probably going to read this so I just wanted you to know that I love you. It makes me very sad that you are so sick right now and you keep telling me you want to "Go Home". Mom, I am OK with that. I will take everything that you and dad taught me and be the best person that I can be. Thank you and I hope you have a wonderful day with the family. Sorry I am not there but I will see you soon!

2nd....Celine Dion!!!

Finally, Megs x-mas arrived from last year. We went and saw the most amazing woman in concert...Celine Dion on Thursday October 16, 2008. Megs and I had a very good time, we even met friends who led us to to the concert and back to the car. I was in complete shock with how much passion she puts into her singing. Although, we had some people who weren't so happy with us because either we were standing, singing or laughing. The night was fantastic!




She was sooo excited!

New friends...I forgot there name! But very nice

Just catching up! First....Papa's Pizza!

I am completely swapped with school and work. Its a little hard to juggle with the two but I always try and find time to spend with Molly and Braydon when possible. Last Saturday after class, I got the chance to finally hang out with them. We went out shopping first and they both got to pick out a movie for themselves, after that we headed to the park then to Papa's Pizza. We had a very good time.

Happy Birthday Angie!!!

I just wanted to wish to my very good friends Angie a Happy Birthday! We don't see each other very often, even the last few times I have been to Utah but she is one of my dearest friends and regardless of whats going on in our lives, we always let each other know we are there. Thank you for everything, and especially for being there after my dad. I am sorry I couldn't make it down there for the big bash, but I am thinking of you. I will be down in a few weeks, we will celebrate mine. Be prepared for my sisters!!
