So I am doing a little babysitting this morning while my next door neighbor/ good friend goes to the gym for some toning, and talking!  It has really been a crazy few weeks… as you can probably guess I am back in Red Lodge.  I have been here for almost three weeks now, and a lot has changed in my life since pulling out  of good old Bozo.  I guess this is just the spring for growth ( I say spring loosely, as it is snowing outside), I have been doing quite a bit of soul searching since I have been here and come up with some new “moves” for my life.  Now I am not quite ready to spill the beans yet, but when I do you’ll be the first ones to know!

Until then I will leave you with a list of some of the fun stuff I have been doing while in the R of L!

• Dancing… Lots of dancing
• cookouts and BBQ’s 
• Skiing… sometimes in slush
• Working on my Goggle tan
• Babysitting
• Solving Mysteries
• Making new friends from Shy Town
• Throwing going away parties
• Going to the employee party on the mountain
• Having Snowball Fights
• Watching Snow Motion- which is this REALLY hilarious ski movie from the 80s that you should remind me/badger me to write a post about!  it is probably one of the “greatest” things I have ever seen in my life!
• Helped Make Ty’s Meed, which is a type of wine
• Learned to play Cribbage
• Watched it snow… after the mountain was closed BOO
• Thought about college
• Learned how to knit a new hat… which is AWESOME
• And Learned that Dolly Freakin Moe is one of the Coolest People I know

O ya and one last thing, although I am not putting it on my list.  I have learned that sometimes you are given all you can handle, sometimes God throws you for a loop, and tries to take you down with all the hard stuff at once, but that’s OK. If these are my trials I am looking forward to the rewards.  I am not “pumping the brakes”, I am “full speed ahead”.  Although I have shed some tears lately, and although I am still upset with the outcome of certain situations I am proud of my behavior, and the person that I will become from my cercomstances.  

Also I would just like to add that boys are tricky… they really are a breed of their own.  I am still learning them (and loving them), but mostly I JUST WANT TO BE YOUR FRIEND!!!

Peace & Love

and until next time

XOXO

Hello All

Just wanted to let you know that I am still alive and well!  I know it has been quite a while since my last post… but don’t worry there are new things one the horizon!

So stay tuned, cause things are a changin’ around here!

Kisses

EVERYONE IS GETTING ENGAGED!!!!!

seriously!?

So this morning at 8 a.m. downtown Bozeman BLEW UP!!!  This local bar called Boodles had a natural gas explosion and took half of the block with it! YIKES!

There is still no idea if people were lost in the explosion, but its not looking good!  Over half the town felt the explosion, not to mention lost power.  My roommate works down the street a few blocks and she said it felt like an airplane hit the building the shake was so strong!  

The buildings that were lost were very historical, and will be missed by many (mostly cause they were bars haha).  Our thoughts and prayers are with those who were injured or effected!

So it has been four days now and I am only getting sicker!  I am about to head to the doctor cause I am pretty sure that I have strep throat!  

Tuesday I woke up and had a sore throat, and by the time I went to bed I was sore and achy all over!

Wednesday morning I woke up and pretty much felt like I was dying.  By the time 3p.m. rolled around I was hanging over the toilet for the next 12 hours.

Thursday was a little better only because I had yet to hurl again, but other than that I was feelin pretty rough!  

So now I still can’t get rid of my fever, and my throat feels like I have swolowed shards of glass.  UHG!!!!

I am coming up with a new series!!!! its going to be about all my “boy drama”, and dating drama just in general!  it will also be about the boy/dating drama in my friends life (don’t worry all names will be changed).  if you have any stories, or any ideas for a name of my series give me a shout!

it will kind of be like Sex and the City, with a little bit less sex haha!  sort of like “dating in the mountains”, I really need help with a funny name!

These are the Icelantic Pilgrims!!! They are pretty much the most sick nasty skis ever!!! I am dying to have them… THEY WILL BE MINE!

I want Sunflowers NOW!!!!
