Thoughts that I think

By -
So here I sit with a million thoughts in my head, and as per normal I am going to just spew them all out here in absolutely no order with no rhyme or reason..


I really hate going to the dentist.. but I get to have like 6 appts worth to fix this one fargin tooth!

Slinkies amaze me

I am hoping to join the Derby Dolls with my friend Julann.. she kicks serious ass.

I had a great weekend in Arizona. I glued my pants to my leg.... alcohol may have been involved.

I really look up to my brother (and not just because he's taller than me) and OLDER.. MUCH OLDER.

I have spent a lot of time trying to change, become a better me.. well I'm done with that.. take me or leave me, I am who I am.. I think this may fall under the old dogs new tricks addage.

I'm not as strong as I pretend to be, but probably stronger than I think I am.

I might start sewing again (but shh don't tell anyone)

I call my mom almost every day.

I think the Navy should let us stay in San Diego... the navy doesn't seem to think so...

I got the best advice ever a few weeks ago.. when you start feeling sorry for yourself.. pray for someone else. TOTALLY works.

I'm looking for a twin bed and dresser if anyone knows of anyone who is getting rid of one. Garrett has decided to move out of Tanner's room.

I think it would be cool to own a ferret.

I am counting the days to June 30th.

I am going back to AZ for spring break...

I have so much fun with my sister in-law Katie, she is kinda amazing, and HILARIOUS!!

I draw parallels from my life to Beatles songs.

I want to go visit my cousin.

I think I should win the lottery.. that would be handy.

FERRETS are evil and wicked creatures. I once met one from Wyoming and it bit me. No reason. They just like to bite. And pee on stuff.

New Year’s Eve 2017....

I guess we all are doing a lot of reflecting at this time of year. I sat pretty much sobbing last night as I reflected on this year. It certainly has had its shares of down, but just thinking about the bad parts is not very productive. This year also had some very great spots. So I’m going to reflect on the good, ponder the bad, and look at what I hope for the new year.

The Good ~
This year saw lots of good -
2017 saw Garrett graduate 8th grade and start high school..
Daniel started a new job..
Tanner got his drivers license..
Paige started working at SDSU dining services..
Connor decided on his career path (elementary school teacher)
We went to Michigan for the most amazing wedding of the most amazing people..
I visited Oregon for the first time
Went to Vegas for the most fun wedding/weekend and gained a sister
Saw 2 NKOTB concerts and my forever hero Dolly Parton
So lots of good. Lots and lots of good..

The bad ~
More ponderings of the bad....
I guess I can’t…

Combatting violence

So here we are AGAIN! The same arguments, the same go around.  “We need common sense gun laws” “No! Control doesn’t work” “No one needs a weapon that can wipe out a classroom in 45 seconds” “The only thing, that stops a bad guy with a gun, is a good guy with a gun” “Arm the teachers” “Secure schools better” “Metal detectors and armed guards everywhere” “No we can’t have our kids going to school in prisons” “We need better mental healthcare” “It’s not a gun problem it’s a people problem” And on and on and on.....
Then after a few days or a few weeks the arguing, and posturing simmers down, and we go back to life as usual until it happens AGAIN! Then the go around starts back up, but nothing is actually being done. You can’t say X or Y doesn’t work, because literally we haven’t tried anything so how do we know what will and won’t work.
You want to talk about rights? How about my child’s right to go to school, AND come home.
I’m having conversations with one of my dearest friends about looking at effi…

An open letter to my teenage daughter

My beautiful Paige,

I was once 14, and I do remember what it was like. Here are a few things that I wish I would have known/believed then...

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL
I don't care what some angst ridden, spitefull, spoiled rotten brat thinks. So what if someone is taller, thinner, has blonder hair, or darker hair, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. You have a beauty that far outreaches any super model, you have a beautiful heart. You are an amazing child of God and your beauty shines regardless of the brand of jeans you wear.

DON'T SPEND TOO MUCH TIME WORRYING ABOUT NOW
Believe it or not, the things that feel like they are the end of the world right now won't even matter in 10 years, hell they won't matter in 10 weeks! It's hard to see past that right now, but know that a whole lot of amazing awaits you in life, and these teen years will be just one drop of water in the giant ocean that is your life.

BOYS ARE DUMB!
Period. End of sentence. You're young, don't look too hard for &qu…
