Where has the time gone?

Well Long time no post... This is just for you mom!

She's been hounding me every time I talk to her on the phone. hahaha! What can I say life has been very very busy. September came and went along with my birthday. Ron was a dear and gave me an awesome birthday. He spent the morning with me at gandolfo's and ate breakfast with me and then he was off to school. After class I opened presents which happened to be my favorite movie 17 again, and a jar of pickles... (there is a funny story to this one.) Thats not all he got me but for the time being it was. After gifts Ron and I headed to blackfoot for the Eastern Idaho State fair. We met up with his grandparents. We walked around to all the little booths and then we ate an awesome dinner. I had a prime rib sandwich from the Hard Hat and then a Tiger's ear for dessert (Basically its a giant scone with honey butter cinnamon and sugar and ITS HUGE NO KIDDING LONGER THEN MY WHOLE TORSO!) Anyways it was fun. So later on the next week ron took me garment shopping to add to my present list. I was in dire need of them. Then my last present and I didn't get it till just last week was my brand new cell phone! Oh its nice to have a phone I don't have to take to the car to charge. Its so pretty too! We weren't able to buy a new phone at the start of the semester because of the $4000 dollars that leaves our bank account for tuition. So her is the present Ron really wanted to get me! Oh I love it sooooooooooooooooo much!

Isn't it nice! Its nice to have a big phone instead of my juke. I can actually have pictures at a decent size! Anyways Thanks baby love for my awesome present. I don't care if it was a month late. It was soooooo worth it!
Anyways the rest of the month is full of school and work. I hate school this semester but it could be that I hated work. I know that is really pessimistic of me but Gandolfo's just wasn't for me. My boss kept calling me into work early. The owners were cheapskates and my pay check BOUNCED! SERIOUSLY!? I don't know if it was because the business is going under or if it is because they're in the process of selling the business. Who knows who cares. I quit and I am so happy about the decision. I was almost depressed because of the mixture of the horrid job and school. Its very unlike me to quit jobs like that but honestly I couldn't stand working there every day and I wasn't able to finish all the homework that I needed to. So I quit and went back to my old job doing custodial at the benson building. I love being a custodian... ha more than a sandwich maker thats for sure. So now I have all day to do homework and keep the house in ship shape. I go to work at 4 am come home at seven and take a nap til about ten. Then I get up and get things done. I have night school so I don't have class till 5:15. Its so nice to not feel rushed to get things done. My life went from high stress to very basic managable stress.
We also went to boise about a week and a half ago. We forgot to take pictures. Our nephew brad was ordained a deacon, Ron's parents were there, and I hadn't seen Fruitland, the town where Ron grew up. I finally got to put pictures to all the stories I've been told about Ron's Childhood. Basically it was the perfect opportunity to get away for a few days. It was really nice to get to know Mike and Tara and the boys. We'd only seen them once since the wedding and that was for about an hour. We also got to go have dinner at Ron's Grandma's house with his parents and all his aunts and uncles. Its nice to finally really feel like I know who people are. They're really fun to be around and remind me a lot of my dad's side of the family. I felt right at home with them. And as always it was fun and enjoyable to see mom and dad garner again.
Thisweek I hope to go to st.g for my friend Kensi's bridal shower... she is going to be such a beautiful bride I am so excited for her! Things aren't set in stone for sure its hard cause mid terms are this week which makes a car situation. Anyways thats basically life for now. Not to exciting but whatever.
The weather is beautiful here. I was a bit worried over conference weekend cause it snowed but it cleared right up. I forgot to mention, Ron and I are looking into moving. We found a town house for rent that is 200 sq. feet bigger then ours and the rent is cheaper! It was a ton of storage which we are really happy about and it was a little patio in the back for our bbq. We're excited about it. We're filling out the application today and getting it in. Then we wait! Oh I hope its not to long of a wait. The Town house its self is a bit older then our apartment. Ours is only about 3 years old so everything is really updated and it came with a washer and dryer, but the way I see it I would rather have space and have a little bit of an outdated kitchen that I can still make cute then no space. Plus you can find washers and dryers on the school bullitin board for cheap! Cause students don't want to move with them. So cross your fingers that it will be soon!
Things we look forward to in the next little bit.
This Weekend: CROSS YOUR FINGERS I could be going home
