The Shack

Since Im currently into reading, I have picked up a new book called The Shack. It is supposed to be a very compelling book that takes a man closer to God than he ever thought possible. Im only a couple chapters into in, but so far it is really good. I think everyone should read it. If you are interested in reading it, let me know and I will get it to you as soon as I am done.

Senses lost and the things I take for granted

I have been sick for about two weeks now and it has been rough. A couple days into it, my loving husband bought me some Zicam nose gel. Instead of reading the directions, I put the gel in and sniffed it up. Well apparently you are not supposed to do this because it burns your sinuses. So for about 8 hours I was in the most pain I have ever been in. I bawled the entire time. Now two weeks later, I cannot smell or taste anything. I am so afraid that I have lost my senses FOREVER!!!! So lately I have been thinking about the things I take for granted and how I can make them better.
1. My Husband: Sometimes I feel like I never praise him enought for ALL that he does for me. He is always there to listen to all my problems, fears, regrets, etc... He is my best friend and I love him more than anything in this world and Im going to work on being a better friend to him.
2. My House: Im always looking around for new things to decorate with or update instead of being thankful that I even have a house.
3. The opportunity to go to college. I seem to complain more about my classes and homework and tests than I am thankful that I get to further my education and become a better person. Im going to lessen my complaining and find more good at SUU.
4. Complaining about everything. This is my biggest weakness, I voice ALL my complaints. It is so hard to be around people who complain non stop and are constatly ornery. I don't know what my deal is, but it's a problem for me. I never look for the good. I only see the bad and then I tell everyone about it. Sorry everyone who has had to hear me complain. Im really gonna work on it.

Sam, My New Phone

Meet Sam. He joined our family last week and I really love him. He has been such a great phone. He gets me my email as soon as it is sent, he plays the best music, and is great at texting. Everyone should adopt one of these. Im now a member of the AT&T network so I can have more bars in more places.

The Bachelor Letdown

Once again my favorite never wins. As of tonight I am officially never watching the Bachelor/ette again. You would think that Jason would pick the right one especially after DeAnnas mistake. Oh well I'm over it.

Snowmobiling!

Derek, Rob, and Dusty went over to Beaver to do some snowmobiling with some work buddies. They had a great time and the snow was awesome. Then for Valentines day, Derek and I, and Dusty and Emmi went snowmobiling to Brian Head for dinner. It was really fun, but really cold. It was -17 degrees and anyone who knows me knows that I hate being cold. It was fun though.

I Got It!!!

I finally got the job I have been wanting since August. I will now be working at the Hampton Inn and I am so excited to get my foot into this industry and be a part of the Hilton family. So currently I have 2 jobs. Im still working at Spirit, which I absolutly love. All the people there are so fun to be around. I am also going to school with 15 credits and cleaning two houses a week. Life right now is super crazy. I barely get to see my husband, which sucks, but I am learning a lot and loving it.

UFC

Derek had the opportunity to go to Vegas and watch BJ Penn and George St. Pierre battle it out at a UFC fight. He had such a great time with his cousins and his brother. Of course GSP won so it was a great day. Thanks Hanna brothers for takin Derek. We love and appreciate all you do.
