1/2 Best Day Of My Life

SO yesterday I had to take my Written Exam for my hair license yesterday. Let's just say I was a nervous wreck. I went in feeling really confident and totally ready. As I'm taking the exam, I am guessing on like 30 questions. I was feeling all hot and clammy and I seriously thought I was gonna throw up. So I get finished and the proctor guy was like You blew thru that! It only took me twenty minutes. And I'm thinking Crap! that probably means I didn't do so well. Then he says Congratulations to me. And I go "I passed?" He said he wouldn't congratulate me for taking it fast. HAHhahaha so I passed! Halfway done to getting my license. The practical part is going to be easy as pie and then I'll be all done.
So the girls and I decided to go out to eat to celebrate. We decide on Happy Hour at Kona Grill. We were standing around for about fifteen minutes and there were two older men sitting at a table and looking like they would be done pretty soon. So we asked if we could sit with them so we could have their table. I, of course, was seated right between the two men :( One was pretty normal, was visiting from Michigan. His son's best friend just moved to AZ, worked for UofP, drove a Jaguar, and was in the Marines. He was trying to set me up with him but I never followed thru on that. The other guy, however, proceeded to call himself the Devil and was blowing cigar smoke all over my sushi rolls. Yuck! In the end, they bought our dinner which we decided was totally not worth spending our dinner with them.
Seriously one of the most random nights of my life. But I love my girls! Thanks so much for the support!

Where do I belong?


So this weekend it was my parent's 24th wedding anniversary. Still in love as ever! We went up to Torreon in Show Low. Super nice cabin right on a golf course. It was exactly what I needed. Escape the hot, hectic-ness known as 'The Valley'. This was my backyard for two nights....
For some reason, being submersed in nature really makes me think deeply. I was thinking about what I want out of life. What do I want to accomplish, achieve etc. What kind of life do I want my future children to have? Because every choice I make right now is shaping what my future will be. My mom was telling me alot about how it was being first married, having kids and whatnot. I'm sure it was on her mind since it was her anniversary weekend. So it got me thinking. I'm definitely not ready to be married and nowhere near close to that even happening. So where does that put me?

My mom tells me that I have always had a hard time dealing with change and transitions. I just finished school and quit my job. But I can't get my hair license until October. So I'm somewhat job-less(thankfully my parents can employ me for now!) And everyone else is in school and doing that fun stuff. I haven't known what to do with myself lately. SO I've been up in Globe working with my parents. Its weird coming back to a small town. You can't go ANYWHERE without at least 3 people recognizing you. Old friends want to come back into your life. Even old flames try to weasel their way in. I thought I would like being home for awhile because it would get me grounded and centered on what is most important to me. Instead it has really made me realize that I no longer belong here. I've moved on and this place has nothing to offer me anymore. But if I don't belong here, where do I then?

And then it hit me! Right here is where I belong. With these amazing people!

Hello Blogging

So I'm completely new to this whole blogging thing. But it seems everyone has one. Even my own parents do. So I figured I better catch up with the trends and join in.....


Today is Labor Day! And I have a nice big kink in my neck from sleeping on the floor out at the Las Sendas house. I did, however, get a couple of glorious hours of shut-eye in the Tempurpedic bed.. Those beds are AMAZING. I'm so getting one when I get married. Or make big bucks. Whichever one comes first.


Tonight we have a full line-up. Drum roll please.............



Gossip Girl AKA our newfound obsession
