phone call

I am very homesick sometimes.  I just wish I could be at my parent's house.  I miss cooking with my Mom, working out in the basement while watching movies, playing that baby grand piano, walking up 4 flights of stairs to get to my apartment in Provo, walking to and from school (shocker that I miss that), napping during classes (the only time I ever nap), my old friends--I miss them so much, my babies the W kids, taking walks around the neighborhood with my parents, just cuddling my Mom on the couch, babysitting....

It seems like during the school year I can't wait for summer break.  I just always forget how boring summer break can be.

Blast.  I need a job!  I'm not use to so much free time!  Why did I move to the only place where I did NOT have a job offer?  What was I thinking?

I was contemplating about moving back home because of this homesickness I have.  I went and sat in my room for a while today thinking about the pros and cons.  It's always the basics:  In SoJo I have my parents and my W kids to hang out with.  Biggest.  Pros.  Ever.

The little W triplets boys called yesterday.  Cutest little boys.  Paxton said his favorite thing to do is play with us.  Well, what do you know, that's also my favorite activity too!  Savannah called me tonight just barely after I was thinking about moving back to SoJo.  It was so fun to talk to those kiddos!  I miss them!

Now I'm conflicted.

This weekend was fun.  I went to church Sunday with my friends Ed and Shana.  After church we had Popsicles and I spilled red Popsicle all over my white shirt!  I didn't even realize it was all over me until my friend Mike told me.  I tried to eat a second Popsicle but that ended up spilling all over the floor and a little on my friend Shana.  Haha I'm cursed with popsicles!
I had to wash my white shirt twice!
After church I played Life and some other games with Carlie and Seth.  It was pretty cool because when Carlie and I were younger we'd always play and she always wanted to be the teacher (now she is in real life) and I always wanted to be the doctor (I'm a nurse--way cooler)....and that's what we were Sunday!  The only thing is, I had a mid-life crisis and became an entertainer making the lowest salary card!  I hope that's not indicative of the future.....


I was also god because I was in charge of giving out people pegs, haha
Yeah baby, makin' that guacamole!
Midlife crisis

This is me and Carlie on Sunday

On Monday we went to Grand Prairie and had swim party and BBQ.  Then I went to a free symphony concert with my friends where there were fireworks afterwards!
RED WHITE BLUE

Today is Tuesday and I've studied for the NCLEX, took Carlie lunch, went grocery shopping, played the piano, worked out, watched the bachelorette with Carlie and Seth and now.....blogged.

Wow! You actually had a pretty fun weekend! I had no idea you were homesick. I think it is made worse by the fact you don't have enough to do and you're used to being so busy! You can get those popsicle stains out by wetting your shirt and applying a little clorox on it. After about 15 seconds it should be gone so you then rinse it out good so the clorox doesn't weaken the threads in your shirt. I am kind of hoping you decide to come back here now. I miss hearing you play piano and doing stuff with me and Dad too. It might be good to look at what hospitals you could work at here or even you can work part-time or something for Bishop Fairholm. I know you could find something you'd enjoy doing while maybe getting back into school to pursue your true dream of being a doctor! When you played Life, were you the doctor with the low salary or the entertainer? You definitely have the entertaining skills as a writer and composer and dancer! You can do anything you set your mind to doing. You are incredibly gifted and talented and bright! This Fast Sunday would be a good time to fast about what you should do. We can fast with you. We all love you and want the best for you! Love ya! Mom
