My Fun California Trip

The time has come, the Walrus said, to talk of many things...

Of ships and shoes and sealing wax,

and California flings!

Here is my itinerary.

Day 1, April 21: Fly in to Ontario at 10 AM. That's right, I need an early start.

Spend the day at the beach with my favorite people. That means you. Whoever wants to come. Justin and I are going for sure, and maybe Jason will want to come con su novia or something... But that's where I'm headed on Day 1 and staying. I need to be brown, and I need to hear the waves, and I need to feel the sand between my toes.

Spend the evening with my family, especially my daddy :)

Day 2, April 22: Beach again? I originally scheduled incorrectly, so this day is free. Maybe fishing with Dad? Lunch with someone?

Day 3, April 23: Possibly lunch with Ashley? Or another day at the beach while consuming lunch.

In the evening Allyn, Justin, and I are headed to Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles to see Elizabeth and the Catapult. Why? Because all the cool kids are doing it.

Day 4, April 24: Early afternoon movie with Greg? Which movie? The Soloist.

5:30ish, leave for the Angels game with my favorite second cousin, Jason, and mis padres. It's against the Mariners, and it's Big Bang Friday! Yay for fireworks.

Check out these seats, yo!


Section 212, terrace view. Row H, aisle seats.

Movie with Justin after? Who knows?

Day 5, April 25: A day wandering the Newport Beach Temple with my little brothers and my mom... Possibly Justin? It's beautiful, and what better way to spend a Saturday?

That evening I will spend at a get-together thing with my friend Kristina.

Day 6, April 26: Church and a day at home with the family. Hopefully a delicious dinner prepared by my mother's talented hands. Maybe I can hang with someone else this day? Allyn? Amber?

Day 7, April 27: Leave Ontario airport at 10:30 AM, get back to Salt Lake at 3 PM.

I am excited for this rather fast break.

Now for the hard part:

A presentation, two more papers, three lesson plans, a fixed unit plan, a fixed assessment, and three finals (the fourth one isn't actually a final).

Let's do this!

I can't wait for you to come home. Please get well...you have an amazing agenda. The madre is going to make some awesome meals, and I don't want to have to make the "burn it out of you chicken soup".

Disaster Praxis and Spilled Milk

Image
I never wake up with the expectation that it will be a bad day. I tend to wake up with very few expectations, in fact. I just intend to let things play out however they may and roll with the punches. I'm sure more conscious positive thinking would do me some good, but I am by no means thinking negatively. I got up this morning before my alarm intending to get dressed, eat, and head over to the University of Utah for my reading Praxis . This is a 2-hour long test consisting of 90 multiple choice questions and 3 written responses. Not the way anyone likes to spend her Saturday morning, but it has to be done, ya know?  I've been studying for the past week. I took the practice test last night and didn't do so well on it, but I tried to be confident and hope for the best.  So I ate my granola, yogurt, and mango for breakfast and drove over to the U, prepared with my ticket and #2 pencils. Since I just took another Praxis not too long ago at the same place, I felt OK ...

March GBOMB

Good Zoo pass. We have been to the zoo twice so far this year, and bought our pass on our first visit. AJ has asked to go to the zoo multiple times, but the weather is still spotty. I'm excited for more visits to the zoo. I love how small Hogle zoo is so we can knock it out in a couple of hours. And the pass is nice so we can see whatever we want, and leave and not feel stressed about it. Plus he runs around everywhere. Definitely a worthy investment for us.  This makes me laugh every time Weight lifting. I finished March off strong with the Fitbliss at-home workouts. It's been really fun to get to do new workouts and mix things up. It helps me to challenge myself and feel accomplished that I did a hard thing.  Pelvic floor physical therapy. Honestly, it never is comfortable having medical professionals poke around the private parts. But I've been trying to do some breathing and other things at home that seem to have made a difference for my overall tension and dysfunction....

June in Review

Image
June 1 I woke up around 6:30 and took AJ on a walk. We did breakfast and went grocery shopping. He was really fussy after that because he was tired. Matthew tried to put him down for a nap, but I ended up having to hold him until he fell asleep. It was a busy day of trying to pack up the house to get ready for the contractors on Monday. I did laundry and also cleaned out the bottom of the grill. We went to Joy Luck Chinese restaurant for dinner as a family and then the three of us went to the playground. We gave AJ a bath and did bedtime. Matthew went to the kitchen. I took a bath and wrote my GBOMB.  June 2 AJ and I went on a walk. I moved items from the pantry into my bedroom to get ready for the floors being done. I researched and did some measuring to get some shelves for our entryway closet. I took apart our table. AJ and I ran some errands including going to three furniture stores. AJ took a fall down our cement stairs which was really sad. AJ having the time of his life at L...
