My School, My Remote, and Other Big Temporal Things

Busy week!

I have to meet tonight with some girls from church for an upcoming activity. Then tomorrow I have to visit teach at some point because the rest of the week probably won't work. Tuesday night I have meetings as a Relief Society presidency also.

Wednesday I have a screening interview with Canyons School District.

Thursday and Friday I freaking GRADUATE! What the heck!

It's going to be amazing. Fortunately, there aren't really any lesson plans for this week because it's all state testing, so that should be delightful.

The weather is glorious today: 73° and sunny.

I bought six movies on Friday night: Michael Jackson's This is It, Zombieland, Whip It, Where the Wild Things Are, Brothers Bloom, and Terminator Salvation. The impulsive buying has to stop. But I can't beat the 3 for $20 deal--come on!

I worked out on Saturday morning to Jillian's 30 Day Shred. It's such a beast but I'm not too sore. Guess I'd better do it again tomorrah! 

In other news, my DVD remote has not been working for a long time, the play button most importantly. It's very annoying. I've looked into getting it replaced or repaired, and it would cost more than my DVD player ($39 to be exact) to do either of those.

So instead I got super smart and went to Big! Lots yesterday and got a universal remote for $5. I programmed it and now have a remote that works with my DVD player! I am one happy (and freaking smart) camper! I tried to program it to the TV but don't think it will work, but it's OK. I just need something that will push PLAY and skip chapters and fast forward so that I don't have to get up every time I pause a DVD. I also got a bunch of new chapsticks because the one I had forever ran out, and then my cherry one got lost. So I found two different Hawaiian Tropic kinds for $1.50 each which I haven't tried yet. And for $1 I got Maui Mike's chapstick that is pina colada flavored. It is amazing. I love it.

Last night I went to a volleyball game with my cousin, and we went to this pizza place that was pretty darn good. It was a fun change of pace.

I got a bajillion compliments today on my outfit, hair, eyes, headband, etc. It's blown my head up big time. It's so nice when people tell you kind things. I also wore my new shoes today. :)

So, staying busy and doing lots of good things I hope.

I need to get an oil change soon. Gotta love cars!

The end.

Disaster Praxis and Spilled Milk

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...
