Random tidbits

I am not getting online as frequently as I used to because of my new location. I don't have wireless so I have to use a different computer to get online, which results in less time online. So if you see my activity decrease, that is why. I also have more things to keep me busy (read: four children) so I don't spend as much time idling around online.

I am very excited to be back in Utah. I have finished my travels; going back to CA to pick up the rest of my stuff and visiting my grandparents, and am now settling into summer. I am still looking for a teaching job come the fall, but I have a part time summer job at the game store and will also be selling shoes for my landlady.

Funny story. This morning, I was painting the little girl's fingernails and Baby decided he needed his nails done too. Well, my landlord is anti boys doing anything that can be considered "girly" so we cut and filed them. Unfortunatly, Baby then managed to get a hold of one of the nail polishes while I was doing my last coat. I didn't think he would be able to get the lid off because the lid comes off and then you have to untwist the cap. Well, he did. And I caught him just before he completely opened it. But I got silver nail polish all over my hands. And some of my nails (that are painted a different color). Smart little fart.

Also, I think I need to get back into dancing.

Update

I figured I should probably post something new because I'm somewhere else doing something different.

I have moved back to Utah!!! I never thought I would be excited about that, but I am. I just miss the atmosphere, waving at my neighbors. I miss having all the stores I shop at being so close and I miss not having to drive through LA traffic. I like being close enough to visit my friends.

I am back in the same living situation, which will be good for me to save some money! I also got my old job back, though I won't have many hours. Still, that's better than nothing!

I do have to go back to CA this weekend to get the rest of my stuff. I think I may have managed to sell the bunkbed and desk that don't fit in my car.

The next weekend, my baby sister and I are going to visit my grandparents, whom I haven't visited in like two years. I'll have to bring some books and movies with me to keep from being bored. Any suggestions? I will take a trip to the library.

Life is good. Breathe a deep sigh of relief. Everything works out, even if its not the way we planned.

I am feeling much better about myself and my life.

Well, that's that

Highlander and I had a talk today. After two weeks of awkwardness we have decided to move on. Well, I was still for working things out, but he's done some soul searching and some praying and he feels that it is wrong to continue because its not right and it would be dishonest to lead me on. Which I kind of knew would happen. He was not invested in the relationship like I was and the Lord has been preparing me for the breakup. He (the Lord) told me to just 'let him go'. So I did. You can't make someone choose something they don't want.

The good news though is that I am moving back to Utah! Highlander was really the only reason I was staying in CA; I couldn't get a job and the cost of living was making things really difficult for me. So now that that is gone, I can move back with a light heart and hopefully find some joy again. I don't really enjoy living in California. Now its just figuring out the logistics of moving back.

Yes, I am insane. I would like it to calm down a bit, but it never seems to.

Onward and upward!!

Musical

So I was taking those dumb quizzes on Facebook and I read this one out loud.

If you ruled the world, what would it look like?

My roommates promptly replied "a musical" and "everyone would be singing"

To which I laughed because apparently they know me well enough to figure that one out.

Love horoscope

Today's horoscope:

Love comes in many different flavors -- sometimes it's hot and spicy, while other times it's more simple and comforting. All you have to do is understand which kind you are dealing with right now. So take things slowly in any new relationships, regardless of whether or not they are romantic. Let this person show you who they are in their own way, and don't overlook red flags that pop up. Just because they are inconvenient doesn't mean that they still aren't true.

Guess I should take a chill pill.
