I can't wait to spend the rest of eternity with the love of my life, my sweetheart, my best friend, my tuchii tuchii!!!

Summer Time

WOW!!! A lot has happened in the past couple months. I hope I can remember everything. My job is still going great. Its a great place to work. I'm never bored and always busy! I get along really well with my co-workers. I made two really nice fun friends named Ashley and Elizabeth. They are both non members but we have a lot in common and hang out and get a long really well. They ask me questions about the church all the time. Its fun to talk about what I believe and do. They have been told some really funny things about Mormons!! like we can't eat chocolate or caffeine. I told them that we can have chocolate and caffeine. I was really surprised when I heard some of those things. lol
I broke up with Pete a month ago. It just wasn't going to work out. We were on two totally different pages and levels. He distanced himself from me from the day I moved out here. I was not happy and was sick of not being myself.
But funny thing is.... I met a guy the week I moved out here at a ward activity/dance. We were both dating other people at the time. When I saw him I was like.....wow....He is so freaking handsome! So, while my ex was ignoring me as usual, I went and talked to him and another guy. The three of us hung out for a while. I found out that the one I was interested in had a girlfriend. I new she was a lucky girl to catch him!! Well, a couple few weeks later, I was having another hard day so I went with Rhonda and her mom to get there hair done so I wasn't sitting at home crying. When I got in the car, guess who was in there as well....Diego! I didn't recognize him because he had a beard and long hair cause he hadn't shaved in a few weeks and he was working for Gini next door! When I got in the car, he imediately made conversation and we talked while Gini was taking him home. I was so impressed about how he talked about his girl at the time, and such a hard worker he is. Well, long story short, a couple weeks later he broke up with his girl because she didn't know what she wanted and was going to spain. I must admit, when I found out they broke up I felt bad, but was glad inside...lol
I new things weren't going well with Pete and I. I was tired of being unhappy and not being treated nice. At this point I hadn't seen Pete in a month. He wouldn't return my calls or come over, so with no other choice I texted him and ended things. So I changed my status on FB and then Diego started writing me and gave me his number. When I was in Palmyra he texted me the whole time and asked me out. So now we are dating. Can I just say I haven't been this happy in so long! He treats me so amazingly and would do anything to be with me and for me. We hit it off so fast. I feel like I have known him for more than a month. We love spending time together and just being with each other no matter where we are. We get a long really well and can talk about anything. I can totally be myself around him. Everything has been so natural.
So far this summer I have been to Palmyra, and saw the pageant, sacred grove,Boston temple doing baptisms, spent the fourth of July with my friend Martha up in Boston. So far its been a great summer. Also I bought a new car, but when I was driving back from Connecticut last week, the engine died and the motor is locked up...my warranty was over my miles and the dealer wouldn't do anything. So now I have to pay for it. But luckily, Diego said he would help me out. How nice is that. I didn't even ask. Well, that is the update for me!

Something New

So things are going really good out here! My new job is so busy and i'm always learning new things. I will never be bored with this job for sure!! Everyone in the office is so nice and we have fun and work at the same time which is nice too! My ward is really cool too. I had to give a talk in church yesterday, i got a calling(activities committee), and i also have to teach relief society in two weeks!! Can you say..... holy cow!!!! they are definitely using me for what ever they can sqweeze out of me! LOL but i don't mind at all. i like to be involved in new things and meet new people. I know that this is where the Lord wants me to be right now. I'm so grateful for the gospel and how it has blessed me in my life.

Moving On Up To The East Side

I'm moving!!! I got the job at a home health care company called Options. I leave on Wednesday!!!! AAHHHH!!!!! I can't believe I'm moving!! I'm still in shock!! It hit me yesterday when I had family night with my family that I won't see them for a really long time!! I'm pretty sad about that. I'm sure it will hit HARD when I go there!! I'm way exited though!! I'm exited to have a new job, meet new people, and experience new things. This will be a BIG adventure. I know what you are thinking.....SHE IS CRAZY!!! But, this feels right. I've been praying really hard about this for a while and decided that I'm going to do it. I know that I would regret not going while I have the chance. I'm exited to learn new things and grow a lot from this experience. I will post regularly and have pictures on facebook, and maybe some on here if I have time. LOL

Massachusetts!!!!!!!!!

I'm having so much fun!! I love it here! There are so many different kinds of people here! And there accents are so awesome! LOL I can't wait to move here. There are no mountains here, but the trees are so pretty. I bet summer here will be beautiful. Everyone that I have met has been very friendly and inviting. I've been staying with Pete at the house he lives at with a family. There name is the Giossi's. They are so nice to let me stay with them while I was here. I was able to meet Pete's family a few times and have easter dinner with them. They are all so nice and welcoming! I loved how they all gave me a hug when I walked in the door.
So far I have met some of his friends and family. We went to Boston one day and spent the day there. It was a blast! We went to the aquarium and then had dinner at legal seefoods, then went and saw Avitar in 3D at the IMAX theater. It was so cool! tomorrow we are going to New Port and spending the day there. Pete arranged for us to take a tour of the oldest mansion on one of the strips. I'm so exited! Tonight we are going to cape cod and having dinner with one of our friends. We were able to watch conference at the stake center near here and I met some of his friends there. I'm going to his ward on Sunday too. That should be tons of fun! Pete and I played tennis the other day. That was fun too! I'm not very good, so he had to teach me how to do everything. I'm greatful he was so patient with me. LOL
I also had two interviews this week with the same company for a secretary position. I really hope that I get it. I think if that if I don't get it, its becaus they are in a hurry to find someone and I told them that I would have to go home and pack and quit my job and then I could be here in about three weeks. So if they are willing to wait for me then that would be amazing!! I'm praying a lot! But even if I don't get it, I still want to move here. I'll have to post some pictures soon when I get back.

Fun and Frightening

I think that I want to start a recipe blog....I think that would be fun! I love cooking and that is how I relax. I feel like I accomplished something when I do that because I can see it and people usually enjoy it after. Well, that is my thought for the day.
Also, I think I have a hormonal imbalance and or a thyroid imbalance that I need to get checked out on. I haven't been feeling myself for a long time and I think that is why. Anyone know of any good doctors? Also, maybe a physical??!?!?! I have never had one, but I'm 25 so maybe its about time that I did get myself checked out. That kind of freaks me out!! Ok...that was my second thought of the day.

Delights,Decisions, and Dissapointment

So, to start out with for Valentines Day Pete sent me the most gorgeous flowers!! I was so surprised and soooo happy! I have never had a guy send me flowers before. And they had gerbera daisies which are my favorite flower. I'll post a picture soon! I sent him a box with a rice pack and a ice pack that i made and also some butterfingers and a bag of hugs and kisses...since its Valentines Day.
Ok...it finally happened....they blocked face book at my work!! Why and who would do such a cruel thing? That is unacceptable!!!! I intend to protest!!!! Also I had an interview for a different position in the company in the travel department. The manager in that department said he wanted me and he wanted me to start Monday. But my supervisor in the department where I am at now said that I can't go....I'm kind of confused... They advertise in-house hiring and it shouldn't be a big deal, but they are making it one. I think if I want to change positions its not a big deal. So long story short, I don't think I can have the position until they hire more people to replace me...which means they would need to hire about three people to cover everything that I do. But the silly thing is they already have two people to cover my reception job. So, until they hire more people I can't move....SO FRUSTRATING!!!!!!!
Why is it that every time I try to move up in the company someone has to get in my way?!?!?! Also, the computer that I bought from my company isn't working!!!! AHHHH!!!!! WHY OH WHY IS EVERYTHING AGAINST ME??!!!??! And they haven't fixed it yet and its been two weeks, and its the second time I have had to bring it in... So, I've actually had to bring it in and have it fixed more than I have actually used it! LAME SAUCE!!!
OK....number 53 comment....If I don't get this job then I am going to apply to a salon in American Fork that pays hourly so that I can save up for when I move to Boston...which I am hoping and praying works out. At this point I don't see how it won't work out. I'm going out there in four weeks!!!!!!! I'm soooooo freakin exited!!!! There is so much that I want to do when I go out there. But most of all I want to spend time with Pete. Things are going really well fyi!!! I like him a lot!!! This will be a great experience for me. And an adventure. I've never flown by myself before...and gone a vacation by myself before either! I haven't even been on a road trip! What's up with that??? Apparently, I don't get out very much....LOL
So...other than that, things are going well. I'm healthy, I have a new calling in my ward. I'm on the compassionate service committee. I'm actually really exited!! I've always wanted this calling! I think it would be so much fun to get to know other girls in the ward and reach out to them and encourage them to come to activities and see if they need anything. I also got my car paid off last month so no more car payment!! That is pretty exiting!! well, that's about it for now... I'm done venting....

A new year

Wow, so much has happened in the past month!!!! Pete came down for my birthday!! It was so much fun! He made me breakfast for my birthday, then I showed him the Draper and Oquirrh Mountain Temples, then he took me to Cheesecake Factory for dinner. The next day we went to lunch at Tocanno's because I had a free meal coupon for my birthday, then went bowling that night with some of his friends. Then later that night we pulled the boys around on a snowboard tied to the back of a Jetta around Provo(not on main roads). That was super fun! I got some of that on video. Then on Saturday we spent the day up in salt lake walking around temple square and seeing this is the place monument, had lunch and dinner at gate way, saw the Joseph smith movie and enjoyed the view from the top of the building, then went hot tubing. It was so much fun. I really like him a lot. He is such a great guy and i miss him tons. I like everything about him and I enjoy learning new things each day. He makes me want to be a better person in so many ways. I love that he has goals and that he is so strong in the church and has such a strong testimony. He would do anything for anyone. He knows what he wants and knows how to get it...aka...ME!!! LOL He is an awesome cook and plays the piano so much better than I do..but he can't even read music. He just hears it and then plays...that is so cool. I can't wait to go out there in a couple months and see him. I love it out there. I love the history and the culture. Its so different than here in happy valley.
Well, That's about all...oh wait!! I got a mini promotion at my job. I am the new part time receptionist and I love it! I work 8-5 now. I don't know what I'm going to do about the salon. I think I'll just do clients at home or their homes. Ok..I'm done now...

Flowers and Swiss Rolls

I've been having a rough couple of days and I was just about at my breaking point today. But, around lunch time when I was at work, I saw someone walking in with flowers. When she got closer, I realized it was Sarah, Martha's sister. She gave me flowers and swiss rolls from Martha!!! All I can say it totally took me by surprise and made my day. I really needed that. No one has ever gotten me flowers before,or had them delivered! That was extra special. Thank you Martha for all that you do and for being such a great friend and always being there for me. Its great to know who your true friends are, even if they are 2000 miles away.
The thing with the swiss rolls is we were having a previous conversation and she asked me if I was at her house relaxing, what I would be eating at that time and I told her swiss rolls, ice cream and pizza. I thought that was very sneaky! lol I'm so greatful for friendship and love from others. I'm extreemly greatful that I was able to serve in the Relief Society Presidency with Martha and get to know her and become great friends. You never know how you can brighten someone's day by doing simple acts of kindness. Its great to know that someone cares about you. She was my angel looking out for me today.
I'm also trying to find a job to move out there, so please pray for me that it will work out. I love the east coast! It is so pretty out there! I especially love Maine. If you have ever been to the east coast, you would know what i'm talking about. There is so much character in the architecture and in the cities and the people. I think it is much prettier than the west coast, but also very different. I think it would be a great opportunity for me to experience new things, new places and new people.

New year, new adventures, new life

Well, lets see what is new....Christmas was super fun. I got what I wanted, which was a crock pot and a battery powered screw driver. Two very different things but I really wanted them. You always need them and you can find great uses for each of them. I also got some old movies that I grew up on, a gas card, potato masher, cook books,recipe cards, and of course candy. Dad got me a flying monkey this year for our toy. Its so funny! I spent new years with my friend Tiffany and Rachelle and her husband up in Bountiful. We had a lot of fun drinking Martinellis Cider. LOL I'm still looking for a better paying job. It looks like I'm not moving at the moment. I'll be owning my car this month free and clear! I'm so exited! NO more debt!! That is such a nice feeling! Pete is coming in about two weeks. I'm super exited! We will see how things end up going. But either way, we will be great friends. I'll try to upload pictures from Christmas asap. I really need to get better at doing that. Oh ya, I got a new lap top!! I love it! It works so much better and faster! It was badly needed.
I have a few new years resolutions, but they are not the typical. The main ones that I will mention are make someone smile every day, go to the temple at least once a month. I figure I can't go to wrong with those. If I try to do the whole loose 15 pounds I don't think it will happen. So I will say get more tone because muscle weighs more than fat so a number isn't to important. Another one is be optimistic for the future and look for the good in others. The rest of my new years resolutions are personal but I'm really hoping things work out.
