Friends

I feel like I've run out of things to blog about. So I'm going to introduce my blog world to some of my best friends.  Beware.... there are many. I'm going to talk about one friend a day until I'm done. This should be fun, right?  Never fear friends. I'm not going to do this in any specific order. The first is not the worst or best, same with the last.....

Day One: Natalie Bristow

Meet Natalie. We have been friends since we had no hair (I would upload the picture of bald us on our big wheel bikes when we were about a year old if I had it.....). This picture was taken on the first day of our Jr. year of High School.  Since we lived next door to each other, we walked to school together nearly every day of our lives (except for a few years when we went to different elementary schools).  We caught the bus together in Jr. High. We carpooled to high school together.  We both served as Sr. Class officers together.  Now she goes to Snow College and does grown up things like go on dates and teach in pre-schools. 

Natalie is a good girl. She's always been a good example to me of kindness, thoughtfulness, and fun. She isn't afraid to do the little things.  She took me to buy Rolos the day I got my braces off. She made sure that I got flowers after my nieces died. I love this girl. I miss having her next door to me sometimes. Even though we're growing up, we're definitely not growing apart. 

Love you Natalie Rose!

Best of 2022

 We're only through two months of 2022, but that doesn't mean the good reads have stopped! This year I've read some excellent books. My favorites include: 11/22/63 by Stephen King In an Instant by Suzanne Redfearn You'd Be Home Now by Kathleen Glasgow Some of these might get bumped off the list before December of this year. What books should I add to my to-read stack?

New Most Embarrassing Moment

Tonight Rob was warming up for his hockey game, so I was home alone. I heard a loud knock at the door, and looked through the peephole to see who it was. I didn't recognize the man, so I just stood there silently and realized that my door wasn't locked. He'd know I was home if he heard me lock the door (which obviously would be horrible). So obviously I just left it unlocked. After he rang the doorbell to no answer, he opened my door. I was pretty proud of how quickly I was able to slam the door shut and turn the deadbolt. I started thinking of the things in the room that would double as a weapon, but then I heard him call out, "It's the maintenance guy." Whoops. At least we'll get a working furnace out of the ordeal.

Today I was Responsible

Went to class, didn't text during a single one. Ate leftovers for lunch with the Mister. Went to my work meeting, and told too many jokes (I'll take 1/2 credit). Finished my resume so I can apply for teaching internships.  What has marriage done to me?
