I have piles of journals in my room. I remember when I was thirteen loving the secret world of journals. I could write to myself, to God, to my friends and they will remain untouched until I say otherwise. I wondered if I died a tragic death if people would read through them and know [...]

Where Happy Little Bluebirds Fly
Posted in 1 on April 19, 2009 | 1 Comment »
The Wizard of Oz is the theme of the last week for me. It started with text messages on Tuesday. Ian was flying in to Houston, and got stuck due to tornadoes in Georgia. He thought it was all too ironic that “Somewhere over the Rainbow” was playing over the radio in the airport. In [...]
Christmas Gifts
Posted in 1 on January 27, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Thank-you to everyone for the Christmas I’ve always wanted. I enjoyed the time, the laughter, and the memories. Everyone’s “gift” was donated to 3for5. So thank-you for helping me do that as well.

Or blue, green, or purple. Painting is therapeutic. I fully support the use of low VOC paint, made using Celanese products. I gotta help our stock price somehow…

Conspiracy

I’ll start with a confession, I’m electronically challenged.
I got a new cell phone a few months ago, and its a minor miracle that I’ve figured out how to call and text. The blasted thing is so much smarter than me. I can’t believe cell phone is foiling me, not for lack of trying mind you. [...]
All I want for Christmas
Posted in 1 on November 25, 2008 | 2 Comments »
You know that little note that some people put in invitations “No Gifts Please?” I’ve seen it, I’ve laughed at it, I’ve ignored it. But now I want to try it myself. For Christmas this year, if I made your long list of people to shop for, please cross me off. [...]
Suburbia

South Shore Harbor is my new home. Its designed with center hall colonials, ranches, and plantation style homes. We like to call it diversity. Its an interesting new little world though. Coming from the apartment complex, I’m surprised. I was left with my jaw gaping this weekend.
During my run on Sunday I saw all the [...]
Ike

So, Ike is no longer just a semi-decent president in my book. My brain is still trying to process the damage and the stories, but it’s intense. Hurricanes are crazy, and I didn’t even live through it.
Lets just say “THANK GOD for His awesome timing and keeping me in Utah.” I’m overwhelmed but the aftermath. [...]
Fruity Friends

Yesterday, Alex and I made raspberry jam.
It was a glowing experience, the kind that I hope I’ll remember till I’m 80 and talk about with my crazy blue haired buddies. Then again, I’m only 23 and I already feel like its high time I started blogging about my berry mashing and bubblin’, it [...]
Advisory Panel

When I ask someone for advice, I truly value that opinion. I think I’ve been humbled time and again by the people I’m surrounded by, and hopefully I’ve learned that a humble position is a beautiful posture. I recognize that ninety percent of the time I’m trying to convince the world that I [...]
