SECRETSSecret Saturday!! s

Secret Saturday!!
Here you get to know a little about me. Past secrets good and bad

Today I am going to share something I have often thought of years later. This has been because of regret, but mostly how to make it right.
One summer when I was probably in fifth grade my mom put my brother Kevin, and I in a summer event class. Our friend Jenna got into the classes as well. It was quite fun. This was at the local high school, Kearns High. Because it was only about 1.5 miles away from home we often would walk home.
On the way home there is a Harmons. I don't know who's idea it was, where it started but we .......would steal candy! ok I said it... We stole candy a lot. Most often when it was swimming day because we had a towel to hide it in. Afterwards we would most often go sit on Jenna's grass and eat the deliciousness of recess pieces, snickers, skittles, whatever our favorite candy.

One time we were walking out the door and right before a package of reces pieces fell out of my towel. what did us young kids do? RUN! not the smartest thing to do. we just ran out the door and went home. We didn't get caught. whew. That was the closest call we had.

On my mission I often thought that when I get home I will go in
and pay them 50-100 dollars and explain what I had done. I didn't know how to make it right. Was it worth that amount? I don't know. I would also think about how that is the most dishonest thing I have done! I broke the LAW!
SO the SECRET is out. I had a summer of STEALING! A criminal at 10 years old!
Don't judge... I bet you have some secrets too!

DELAY


Life has been quite crazy with a new job and more hours, full time student, moved, unpacking and organizing/filling our house with necessities and a few more little things. Nonetheless I probably would do at least some of my posts if we had internet at home.

This has put a HALT to all my posts. I think we might be able to get internet from our neighbors BUT not sure yet. SO as for right now my posts will be on delay!

(I have been missing posting, hopefully I can be back soon!)

MONDAYS

I don't normally have the so often heard of "MONDAY CRAZINESS" that many have. Mine typically are sporadic. Not this week!
I had surprised Gary and packed 99% of everything (we are moving) He came home on Sunday and we were to move in Monday. I came home to pack and have alone time but Gary stayed in SLC a little while longer. It was fun for me. I did A LOT of work and packed it all. I left a few little things for food, an extra outfit, socks and bathroom needs. Everything else PACKED! WELL MONDAY HIT!
Started off normal. I had a class (that is the best class you or I will ever take!) :). Then I came home to find out that we weren't getting keys today! With mistakes from the credit union they waited to release the keys to us. UH! I don't have all the essentials for another day. (I even packed all our food--other than fridge items that was cleaned out due to our being gone for christmas break for 3 weeks.)
Anyway. NO keys, off to my first full day of work. The Academic Advising is PACKED the first day of school. DO you know how they train you? They gave me a booklet that I read over before work and then they sit you front desk and have you learn as you go! Nothing else. You get a million diverse questions that you don't have a clue at. They weren't very supportive of all my questions either. More annoyed.
After a few snide and quite inconsiderate comments I shrugged off my shift ended.
I just wanted to go home eat a nice meal and watch a show, or read my book (The Seventeen Second Miracle-VERY GOOD!) But we didn't have food in the house, we quickly ran to walmart for a rotisserie chicken and some side to hurry and conjure up.
Walmart was cooking the chicken at the time. We waited. An HOUR later we finally got the chicken went home. Once more realizing a few more things needed that were packed away.
Needless to say I am happy this Monday is over~! And if people have these often I don't know how you do it. I am quite happy today as we are just about to move in to our new place! HERE WE GO! (we have guestrooms just so you know! COME VISIT!)

Brag Moment



SO I am not usually the type to announce bragging rights but when its few and far between (and when you work your butt off) I feel this time is okay.

I am just so excited because I worked really hard this last semester at school. I took 15 credits, 11 of them being upper division classes.
I didn't expect to do as good as I did. With an appeal to one grade which I got changed I received a 4.0!!!!
MY FIRST 4.0 in college. (If money was given it might happen more often like in high school) But this was a great accomplishment for me.
No bribes. No outside incentives. Nothing but pure hard work, a few jumping through hoops,and my own self fulfillment at hand.
Nothing that big but GREAT for me.
