Whoa, December 1st??

There's no possible way that it's already December 1st!! I just need time to stop in its tracks for one moment!
Thanksgiving was great!! We had green bean casserole, corn, rolls, homemade mashed potatoes and gravy (both white and brown), the bes mac-n-cheese ever, and then there was Jeremy's mac-n-cheese! We had a mac-n-cheese cook off. It was so much fun, we were both talking trash to each other. Jeremy smoked his while he was smoking the turkey and mine was in the crockpot. Mine was perfect, and Jeremy's needed more cheese and had a smoked flavor. Everyone loved them both! We had two turkeys- one smoked and one deep fried... YUMMYYY!!! Now that I've had deep fried, I can't go back!
We had about 15 people come over. We invited everyone from Jeremy's work to come over. We realize that we are close to our family but not everyone is, and not everyone lives in a house where they can cook turkeys (alot of them live in the dorms). I was a nervous wreck but everything turned out great! (A HUGE thank you to Stephanie Bachmeier for coming over early and helping me!!!!)


Okay.. now it's December 2nd.. I didn't finish. But here we go December... let's do it!

welcome back!

Wow! It's been a long time since I've blogged! This new/40 hour job is changing my world! That's so silly but it is! I LOOOOOVE my weekends! And Saturday requires a nap. This past Saturday I fell asleep for about thirty minutes around 5 while Texas was losing.. so I'm coming to the conclusion that it's a requirement!

The job is going really good! The only part that I can't stand is the inconsistancy but that's every job.
WallE is doing great! He recently got a hair cut and is looking purdy  :)
Jeremy is doing good too! He's enjoying being on days.

For our anniversary (which is around the time I stopped blogging) we went to dinner and a movie! I don't remember which movie but I do remember that it wasn't very good! For my birthday I came home to flowers on the counter (they were really pretty!) and we headed to Shannon and Josh's for dinner and relaxation! Dinner was FILLING but delicious! Then the next day we went to Chili's because I wanted to for my birthday, and I had a coupon for a free dessert that I got in my email! woo hoo!

Oh also, my laptop has died. I can't get the screen to turn back on! :( So that means we are both sharing one laptop- LAME! But I get dibbs on it- that was the deal if we sold the iPad.. and we did. We aren't the type of people to buy applications for it so we figured could use the money for tires or my ridiculous dental bill.

So I guess that's where I'll leave you for now. I'm in a bad mood tonight.. dinner turned out nasty :(

THE question

What's the one question everybody that you mean after you've entered high school asks you? The one that you ask yourself 20 times a day, nearing the end of your junior year in high school?  Ya know, the question that you hate others answering with such confidence and you have no idea..

"WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?"

I'm almost 22 years old and I've had many answers to this question- being a teacher went to being a photographer to being an ag. teacher to being a dental hygienist to being an Air Force wife to being a dental assistant to- ERRCH! Stop right there. You really don't have a choice but to stop right there... because I don't know what I want to do.

The whole time I was a cashier Jeremy pushed me to find a better job. One that I don't come home and complain about and one that pays better. So I found one, and now he's "encouraging" me to go to school and get a degree in something. I honestly have no idea!! I like the receptionist setting.. it's a happy place behind a desk.
I've never taken accounting... I've been thinking about doing that..
Or I could be a... -and that's where I get stuck. I don't have any ideas!
Jeremy thinks I should be a real estate agent. :/  No thanks. I'd rather not. It just doesn't sound like fun. An interior decorator sounds like more fun!!! (You wouldn't know it looking at my house!)
I'm a very sympathetic person, I would love to do something that helps people!

If anyone has any ideas, please share them! I'm just sure that I'm thinking inside the box and not looking at all of my options!

I've always said "I'm not trying to conquer the world, but I want you to believe that I'm trying"
