Well...
Thanksgiving has come and gone, as well as the dreaded Black Friday. I wasn't going to go anywhere yesterday, becuase I knew it was going to be crazy. But, we decided to go to RC Willey to see what we could see, and I got new couches!
We've been looking at these couches for awhile, and now we finally got them. I'm pretty excited. They are getting delivered today, sometime between 2 and when the truck is empty. We could be sitting here for awhile.
If they get here at a decent time, I'm gonna put my Christmas Tree up. I'm happy about that. Except that I don't think I remember where I put the ribbons. Bummer.
I have to go get in the shower so that we can take the dog to the park. She is freakin bored and she is pissing me off. I hope everyone had a great holiday!
I'll see you cats on the flip flop!

Mindless ranting
So the post below was me trying to figure out mobile blogging. I figured it out, but I can't figure out how to send pictures from my phone to this here blog. I'm going to google it later and see if I can find anything. That way, I can take pictures of the wonderful, probably deep-fried, turkey that my mother and father-in-law are making for us to eat tomorrow. I can make you all jealous! *insert evil laugh here*
I love my mom's cooking. I try to make stuff that she made me growing up, and mostly it just doesn't taste the same. Anyway, my mom makes some good food. But my father-in-law can fry a turkey. So tasty. I hope that's how he does it tomorrow. I'm pretty excited. Except....I've never been to a holiday dinner at the Nelson's house before. Not that I'm still feeling weird around Dave's family, because I'm pretty much over that (especially since I'm not the newest anymore), but I don't know how holidays work in there family.
The first Christmas me and Dave were together, I had my annual Christmas flu, and he insisted that I come over. His whole family was playing games and we went upstairs and watched t.v. I threw up a few times in his mom's bathroom (awkward) and everyone downstairs heard me. The next Christmas, he was in Iraq, and called me while I was in bed with...the flu. We were talking and I told him that he either needed to hold on for like 5 minutes or just call everyone else and then call me back because my head had a meeting with the toilet. He waited :)
The first Christmas we were married, he couldn't get leave so that we could come home. :( That was a sad year. So that means that this is our first holiday season here at home together. Its a big year. Except my mom isn't cooking which makes me sad. I like my mom's cooking. But she said she would make dessert. Which is okay with me!
I'm gonna go figure out how to work my phone!
See ya!

Update
Just a little update pertaining to my earlier post.
I called my husband to ask him if he knew how much he was getting from his GI bill. He asked why I wanted to know suddenly, and I told about my decision and that I wanted to start school. And he said, "LAME. That's lame."
What a jerk!

Life in general
I think I have figured out what I want to do with my life. I decided I want to be an Event/Wedding planner.
I don't know where this epiphony came from, but I think this is really what I want to do. Start my own business and be my own boss. I've always wanted to be my own boss, I just didn't know what I wanted to do enough to decide.
I've already started looking into classes. Which does mean going back to school, but I think it will be different this time.
I hated high school because I couldn't stand the way people acted. I just wanted to pass out flyers that said, "Grow up! K, great, thanks." Everyone just acted immature and it got really old after 6 years of being with pretty much the same people. Hopefully, people in college will be more grounded and act their age. Wishful thinking? God I hope not.
I'm feeling pretty excited about this decision. Me and Dave are both going to enroll for spring semester. He wants to get his math and whatever else he needs done to go to the U of U that will be cheaper to do at SLCC. Me? I'm okay with getting everything I need done at SLCC. I don't feel like the university atmosphere would agree with me. Don't ask me why, that's just how I feel. If I can convince my sister to go to school for Culinary arts like she should, we could go into business together, and then I wouldn't have to worry about finding a vendor for food.

My old friend
I have an old, dear friend (I sound like I'm 90) that I used to be extremely close with. We would hang out together on a regular basis, have sleepovers, the usual things that grade-schoolers do.
I remember the last time I saw her, I believe it was the last time anyway. She had a party. It may have been a birthday party or it may have been a going away party. We went to Raging Waters. That is just about the coolest place you could go in 3rd or 4th grade except Lagoon.
I had to leave early. I don't remember why, but I remember standing on the sidewalk by the parking lot by myself waiting for my mom. I don't think I know why she moved to Michigan, but she was gone. My dearest friend since I could remember. The only one I kept after I moved to a new house. And then she moved to a new state and we didn't keep in touch.
I remember that she called me on the phone once, she probably called more but I only remember this one. I was so excited when my mom said it was her on the phone, but when I picked up, I found there wasn't much to say.
I miss her greatly and have recently found her again. We converse with each other, but only on very rare occasions. She has a very, no extremely, busy life and I am so happy for her. I know I couldn't do it, but then I know I'm not Kimberly.

Babies
My boss's son and his girlfriend broke the news awhile ago that they were pregnant. It was a shocker for her family, of course, but what can you do.
Not long after, they broke the news that it was twins. *SHOCK* After that, everyone had gotten used to the idea that there was going to be new babies in the family and that they were going to be a grandma, grandpa, aunt, etc.
Ashley, the girlfriend, was supposed to have her find out what they are appointment this coming Friday. It was going to be an excitng day. Note the key word 'was'.
My boss, Donna, didn't come to work yesterday. Ashley was in the hospital and she lost the babies. Both of them. 2 little girls who were born alive and then closed their eyes and went back to sleep. Talya (gift from god) and Neveah (Na-vay-ah heaven spelled backwards). Needless to say Donna is upset and everyone is asking her questions and she keeps crying.
I asked her one thing when I got to work this morning..."how are you doing". Though I new the answer, I still needed to ask. I couldn't just walk by her office and not say anything. I couldn't say I'm sorry, or I know how you feel. Because I don't know how they are feeling, and sorry just isn't close to enough.
I am telling this story because this is the only reason that I am scared to get pregnant. I don't want to get attached to the idea of finally having a baby and then just suddenly its gone. I wouldn't be able to handle that. I always tell Dave that if that happens, to just hold me. And not to let me go until I say its okay. It would be the worst day of my life if that happened to me.
