Summer...and lots of thinking...

So its summer 2008 here in Mass!

I can truly say that after yesterday. It was so hot! My mom and I went and baught fans!!!

So I've been thinking alot latly about my life and where I'm going. My goals have slowly changed this past year...I mean in the long run I still want my masters in Social Work. But I have a lot more short term goals that will put the SW on the back burner for a bit... I really enjoy working in substance abuse treatment. Maybe its because I grew up with substance abuse all around me and saw the effects of it. Which I'm glad before because I have never touched the stuff because of it.

And then when I was out in Utah I worked for an amazing program and learned so much from a great group of young men. So I am going to get my Mass licenced substance abuse counsling aka LSAC. So this fall I will be attending Middlesex CC once again... they have a program there. It will be good becuase that will get me into a job where I can better save for school. The program is only six months... It will be great!

Priesthood Blessings

So today I got a blessing. I'd been having a rough time feeling right about my decision to move back home. Today it all hit me like a ton of bricks. I was fine all day and then a friend Derek who is leaving next month for a mission to Navada. Asked me how are you and fr some reason I couldn't answer my fake, "Yeah I'm great". That I had been doing for the entire day. I just started to cry...and I said, "Could you give me a blessing." Let me tell you it was one of the most amazing blessings I have ever be given.

I now truly know that I am here for a purpose...Even though my "plans" for the future won't work out like I'd thought...Heavenly Father has something else in store for me...

One thing I have learned is that it is so hard to take that trust leap and just fall and know that he will catch you...

Girls weekend out!!!

So this weekend, I spent some much needed time with my grandma. We went out to Chilis and then to the movies. We saw Nim's Island. It was so cute and I didn't have to feel awkward because there was no swearing and or sexual content...it was clean...you can't say that about many movies anymore.

Then I slept over her place and the next morning we got up and I took her to the hair dresser to get her a perm and a trim. It took FOREVER....and I got a hair cut...not very much of a difference. So people probably wont even notice. It was fun though...and I love my grandmother. I really did miss my family while I was in Utah...

Angela Shelton is coming to Maine!!!

I am so excited! Angela Shelton is coming to Maine! I really want to go see her...anyone want to come? We can watch her documentary before hand...anyone???

Section "A"

So tomorrow I fly out to Utah to pack up all my stuff and bring it home! I checked in at 8am and my ticket said I got section "A"!

Now this is a big thing when you fly Southwest. The way Southwest works is a first check in first serve. They seat by section. "A" goes first. Which means I get a choice of seats! That never happens to me! I always get bad seats. Between really big guys or next to a screaming baby.

But tomorrow no. I am going to pick either a front seat or an emergency exit seat or an isle seat! I'm so excited!!!

Now lets just hope there are no delays.... I'll be so grumpy....

Happily Ever After?

So, I am one of those saps who loves the happily ever after stories.

I have always dreamed it would be like that. But, in my dating career I've learned that its not that simple. Someone can seem so right and everything could be and feel perfect. Ladies and Gents I need to tell you what I've learned ITS NOT THAT SIMPLE!

With every guy I've dated I find myself looking back at a relationship with a guy that I thought was "the guy". The thing that didn't work out with him was communication. Now, i've found myself being told time and time again that communication is a major issue for me. The thing is when I am in a relationship I am so afraid to share my feelings because i've seen my friends share far too much...and scare the guy away...I don't know what the happy medium is.

In other news...

This past Sunday was my birthday and I've really been looking at my life trying to figure out where to go from here. I mean I have all of my goals set and ready to put into action. But I've found myself stuck...Heavenly Father for some reason or another has led me back home. Things are amazing here but I find my prayers unanswered for now...where do I go from here...what will my Happily Ever After be?

Oh my Heck!

Yeah I said that! I'm going to Utah on Saturday morning so I thought I would get in the mood!

So Saturday morning I am going to the Salt Lake temple! I can't wait! I was in Utah for almost two years and I never went.
Then the rest of the days I will be packing my things up and visiting with some friends.

A wonderful day!!!

So today was an amazing day at work! I am so sad to leave those boys!

Today they had to clean the whole morning...and they did amazing... Afterwards as a reward we watched a movie with the boys called Stardust. They loved it! We did a thing today where we said good things about each other...it was really nice to hear from the guys that I'm doing well...I cried at the end when I was telling them their compliments...I just could not keep it together. They have touched my life in ways they'll never know...Thursday is going to be one of the hardest days for me...I will probably cry alot! I really do love those guys and know that they can go far...

Migration East Vs. West!

Okay so its been a really long time since I've written so there is much to say. The big news is I'm moving home...and it is so bitter sweet. I am going to miss my boys! (I work in a program for teenagers with substance abuse issues). I absolutely LOVE my job and its killing me to leave it.

Other than my job, I'm pretty miserable in Utah and I didn't realize how bad things were till I went home and I saw how good life could feel. The only thing I ever wanted to do the past two months is be at work.

Reasons I'm leaving Utah:

• One reason is I miss my family so much and my grandma needs me. She is lonely and can't take care of herself anymore.
  
• My friends back home are amazing! I don't feel lonely out there.
• There are no fricken trees here! What the crap is up with that!
• A hottie...drooling over me!!!!!
• Hello? a Hottie!
• I'm going to be a nanny of the cutest toddler ever! His name is Sammy and his mom my new boss is amazing!

• Did I mention there was a hottie interested in me? Okay so hes not just a hottie. He is a great guy! Intelligent, sweet, honest, an RM, and he's from the East not a shallow Western boy! You can't beat an Eastern Boy....

So yeah....my life the next month is going to be so hectic as I migrate east. I will still try to write as much as possible!
