Lord I hope this day is good...

I don't know what has gotten into me lately. I felt like writing again today. There must be something in the water I've been drinking.

I reluctantly got out of my warm bed this morning, got ready for the day, and jumped into my car for the trek across the desert. I tried listening to a couple of normal radio stations with no avail, reluctantly attempted NPR's Morning Edition and soon realized that political analysis was not going to hit the spot either. I even tried a book on CD that I had started a couple of days ago; It was just too slow for this morning's commute, and I soon found myself yawning. Then I remembered that Cowboy had put four CDs into the player. I knew they were going to be great...

Let me introduce you to Don. His straightforward yet smooth base-baritone voice, soft tones, and an imposing build earned him the nickname "The Gentle Giant" of country music. (Wikipedia) His lyrics are simply delightful...

I know some folks aren't into country, but I guarantee Don Williams is better than country. He's a Classic!

Needless to say, he brought a smile to my face which 100 + hormonal, opinionated jr. high gems will be grateful for.

-over and out.

it finally happened...

well folks, it finally happened. he picked up the ring, he popped the question, he talked to my dad, and i said yes.

It's been awhile....

I think there are three of you who read my blog. You're all a big deal though, so I decided to write again for you three people. I am hoping this post may be slightly therapeutic too, because I sure need some of that. We are on week five of our school year, and it seems like every time I get slightly comfortable something occurs that makes me very uncomfortable. I won't divulge too many details, but needless to say I came away feeling violated, disgusting, and not very trusting. Luckily for me, the scriptures had just the right answers when I needed them most. I am reading about Mormon in the actual book of Mormon. He is dealing with the Nephites who are described as being so disobedient that Mormon doesn't give a full account "that ye might not have too much sorrow because of the wickedness of this people." (Mormon 5: 9) Sound like a world we live in? Mormon previously states a perfect description of my feelings of this "wicked" state when he shares his...

only in the big A town...

cowboy and i are trying to figure out where we are going to live when we get hitched. it's a tricky thing. not only am i marrying a cowboy, i am also marrying a man who owns a few horses, a large and shiny horse trailer, a monster truck, a car, a couple of snow machines, a snow machine trailer, and some other large items. needless to say, rexburg and its tricky parking are not working out in our favor. we need parking, some sort of barn, and some dirt to play around in. so, nick's mom mentioned that there was a neat place for sale in the big A town of arco, idaho. we saw pictures online and decided we wanted to go out and see it. we also needed someone to take engagement pictures, because the other arrangements fell through. come to find out nick has a friend named boone who does it all - he took our pictures and was the realtor too. we snapped some shots, looked at some property, posed for some other takes, and discussed placing an offer. folks, this is what i call being effic...
