secret made known.

i like gambling. so sue me. i'm not extreme or out of control. for those of you that know me...i'm actually pretty cheap. so i don't gamble a whole lot of mula when i go. i have been gambling in Vegas a couple times. it is so fun. i love winning money. i have experienced the feeling of both winning, and losing. overall, i have probably come out even in my gambling endeavours.
for the superbowl, my co workers did a little somethin somethin. it was fun. we all put in about $11 and there was a winner each quarter. i won the first quarter and got $20 big ones! it feels so great to win money. i'm just sayin.

anywho...for the superbowl, we stayed at home. it was my beautiful mothers birthday (now the big 5-0!) and she just wanted to hang out at home with family. so we had her side of the family over and everyone in my family over. ricky came too (boy do i love him!) it was really fun to just hang out and visit, play games, paint nails, play with dolls, play double shot, oh yeah...and watch the superbowl. GO PACKERS! that was fun. i like family. they really are the best thing you have in life. wouldn't you say? well...i better go. i hope you all had a great weekend. peace and blessins y'all. peace and blessins!

ready for more.

as i sit here at work, not having helped anyone for the last 45 minutes, i have decided something. there comes a time in life when you are ready for more. this job has been quite the journey. an experience in and of itself. i just think that i'm ready for something else to come my way. sometimes you just know that if you stay in the same place, you are never going to move forward. that is how i feel right now.

i had a job interview on friday. it went really good (yes, better than the one i had a few posts before this one. haha.) i hope that mr. clyde felt the same way and decides to hire me.

on a side note...i went on a random girls trip with my mother, her sister shelly and her two girls, jamie and brittney. we went to st. george. it was A-MAZING! very much needed. sorry ricky, i had to ditch out on night boarding. oops. we will go again another time. i promise. i will post more on that as soon as jamie blogs about it with pictures so i can steal them! we had fun!

-"the dog days are over!"- florence and the machine. you ever heard of them? you should check it out. they are amazing. her voice is incredible.  anywho...i think that was our theme song for the weekend. well...more to come later. love ya!

livin on the edge.

can i just start by saying how lucky i have been this last year? lucky i have not been pulled over, hit by another car, or most of all, hit another car. today i went to get my official base id because my temporary expires soon. i get up to the lady after waiting for ten minutes in line and she says that they can't issue me a badge because my drivers license is not valid. i sit there sooo confused as to why this would happen. thinking that maybe i got a ticket from one of those camera things on the freeway (kiana introduced those to me from her personal experience.) or possible a parking ticket that blew off of my windsheild. i really could not think of anything. so i call the dmv and find out that my dr.'s office never sent my paperwork to the dmv for my diabetes.
i get talking to them and find out that my license has been suspended since JANUARY of 2010!!!! i know for a fact that i sent the right paperwork to my dr. last year. someone there dropped the ball big time or someones fax machine was not working. WHAT A NIGHTMARE it was been trying to get all of this situated. gosh. don't ever get diabetes. or just don't work on base. haha. they tell you things you don't want to hear. now i can't drive and i have to walk onto the base to get to work. "mom, can you give me a ride to work?" sounds like back in the day of jr high and high school. haha.
for all of you that thought you didn't know a criminal...guess again...you are reading her blog. i have been driving sooo illegally the last year. now let's hope we can get this thing situated soon. i know that because i found that out today, while i'm driving home tonight, i will get pulled over. hopefully it really doesn't...but it would be my luck.

here i come.

i'm off of work to go here this weekend....




to go watch this...




i'm so excited. i will see you all when i get back!

whit b and kelly g. are bomb!

last night i was able to play some volleyball with my new team. it was fun. even though we lost. i just wanted to say that i'm grateful for whitney b. and kelly g. they are so funny. thanks for the ride home. maybe one day we can get a temple cone (sp?) haha.

take a look...

my friend calli is so awesome so i wanted to do this for her and her family to help them out. her husband, kevin has the opportunity to go to guatemala and build houses for those in need. they are trying to raise money so he can go. she sells jewelry. it is not just any ordinary jewelry. it is jewel kade. they sell some of the most amazing chains and charms ever. way cute stuff. if money wasn't an object...i would have one or two of everything. anywho...i will just copy and paste her blog post to my blog to help her get the word out (because i have a ton of followers ;) haha! )

This means a lot to Kevin and we really appreciate 

anything that you may be able to contribute.

a donation there the account is:  Kevin Linsley Charitable

Remember that Valentines Day is coming up, 

JewelKade Jewelry is a great gift!!

 

Thanks so much everyone!!!

I think that you need to see a picture of their cute family too...

so...everyone just take a look and see if you would be interested in taking part of this wonderful experience.

and she is here.

i would like to announce the long waited arrival of one of my very best friends. BC!

britnee was one of the greatest missionaries that i've ever known. she is so close to the spirit and she truly loved those that she served. you can tell that she is on the Lord's errand and only wants his will to be done. i am amazed at how strongly you can feel the spirit when you are around her. she gave a wonderful homecoming message and i'm excited for what is to come in her life. the Lord has some amazing plans in store for her.

i'm glad she is finally home so we can laugh like we used to, sing like we used to, and have girl talk like we used to. love ya britz!
