Quoting my dear friend Megan... Something new and exciting it coming on April 24.

Hold on to your hats kids, its gonna be a wild ride.

ZEBRA

So after the 9 longest days on the face of the planet... MY ZEBRA PHONE CASE FINALLY GOT HERE!!!!! I was so excited for this case. My nieve Megan told me that it was too little kiddish, but I don't even care what she says, I will not give into her peer pressure and I will keep the zebra and love it!!!

So this is me being fierce like a zebra. I'm a zebra hear me ROAR!!!!!

So on Friday, I got ready for work and then went out to the garage. Much to my dismay there was about 8 inches of fresh powder in the driveway. I pulled outmy trusty snow shovel and started shoveling out the driveway behind my car. After about 30 minutes, I had worked up a decent sweat, my couldn't feel my feet and I had only done about a third of the driveway. It was a that second I realized that I wouldnt be working that day.

So after a little bit of resting time, I went out to finish the snoveling. I finished the last two-thirds of the driveway after about another 30-40 minutes of shoveling. It was about now that my nice neightbor took pity upon me and came over with his snow-blower. He did about twice the work in about a fourth of the time. It was amazing. I definately owe this good samaritan.

Look how high the snow blows up!! It's amazing!!!

Blizzard!!!!!!!!

So there was a HUGE snowstorm that came into Colorado today. There were reports all over the news that there were blizzard warnings. There was heavy snow and high winds all day. So I woke up really early to make sure that I had plenty of time to make to work. Then I got there and the snow was really coming down!! When my boss realized that I lived pretty far away from the office, she told me to hurry up and leave to that I would be able to have time to get home safely. I only worked for 15 minutes!!!

So since the Settles are in Utah for the week, I had the house to myself while I stayed home from work. It pretty much snowed all day. i watched tv, played piano and napped. I was the greatest day ever!! Here are some pictures of the snowy view from the house. They all look grey and cloudy.. that is just the snow that continues to fall!!

You know it is pretty bright outside when I look so dark!!!

The Story of the Modern-Day Mormon Miracle

One day, Maggie and her niece Alyssa went out on an ice cream date to cold-stone. They were jamming out to Maggie's iPod in the car. Well, when they got back into the car, the iPod accidentally fell into a cup of water that was in the console. Maggie was very sad. But she turned on the iPod and everything seemed to be working fine.

It wasn't until a couple of days later that Maggie realized her iPod wouldn't turn on. When she would plug it into the computer, it would flash the Apple Logo, but it would never turn on completely. She waited all week to see if it jsut needed a little bit more time, but nothing seemed to work and she could never get it to turn back on the way it had once been.

Finally at the end of the week, Maggie realized she needed to take it to get looked at. So she drove to the apple store and told them that she thought the iPod was broken. The boy who was working there looked at it for a few seconds and then told her that she would have to come back again because he didn'tk now how to fix it. Once again, Maggie was very sad. She was sure that she was going to have to pay to get it fixed.

Trying to stay optimistic, Maggie returned to the Apple store the next day and told another guy the whole story. He plugged it in and it immediately started working. She thought it was all fixed and then when they unplugged it, it turned off. The gentlement figured that the battery was not holding its charge. He sort of disappeared after that, but then came back with a white box. He told another boy that they could replace Maggie's iPod for free as long as she promisted to buy a case to keep it from getting hurt again.

This made Maggie very happy. She was able to get a brand-new iPod without any scratches and one that worked just perfectly. Needless to say, she bought a case for the iPod and has been happily listening ever since.

And thus the story of the Modern-Day Mormon Miracle.

After about 7 or 8 months in Colorado, it has come time to make another move. So.... PROVO HERE I COME!!! I never thought that I would live in Provo before. But, seeing as how most of my family in the area is leaving me for bigger and better things, I guess its time for me to do the same.

So hopefully in April, I will be leaving the Cancer center (Which i have lovingly referred to as "The Death Center") to move to Provo. I will live with my niece Megan, and with any lick, I will be able to find a job that does not include working in a place where I am likely to get shot. The best part about moving to Utah?? It is dirt cheap to live there. We are talking less than one fourth of the price I was going to pay for rent here in Parker. Sign me up!!! So hopefully everything works out and I am able to go. I'm just so excited to be with my spawky!!

Gilmore Girls

My niece Alyssa got all 7 seasons of Gilmore Girls for Christmas. Ever since New Years I have been watching all of them while I cross-stitch a picture of Jesus (there's a different story for a different day!!) The funniest part is that the entire time I was in college I refused to watch this show. All these girls were obsessed with it and I didn't want to be. So I always thought it would be stupid and that I wouldn't like it so I never watched an episode. Now I realize that I should have never watched an episode cause now I'm super-dooper addicted.

Well, I've been watching so many that I'm starting to dream about it, only the characters fromt he show are mixed in with people that I actually know. It's very confusing!!! Luckily, I just started season 6 yesterday so I only have one season left and soon will be able to re-enter the land of the living!!
