On goings

I feel bad because it has been awhile since I have written, but a lot has been going on.  I have been looking for places to live, applying for additional jobs, and being very proactive about my health.  I have also been going out with guys, as usual.  A guy I really like just said to me, "You're my sun, my moon, my starlit sky.  Without you I dwell in darkness."  That is from Willow, but I love that quote!

So I went to Boise the beginning of May for a girls weekend.  I have tried to do this every year with my Aunt Amy, but generally we just go shopping and out to dinner.  This year I was able to arrange myself and cousins Anneli and Marissa getting to Aunt Amy.  It was a quick trip, but we were able to stay up late talking, go to brunch at a tea house, visit the temple, go to a chocolate shop and candy store, get pedicures, visit some amazing neighborhoods and houses (parade of homes), eat at a great Asian place, and play a game.  Church was good too and we were able to have Sunday lunch before heading home.  I enjoyed getting to know my cousin Marissa more also.  I love my Aunt Amy to death and I will miss not having my cousin Anneli in Utah anymore.

Amazing Pedicures!

Stopped to visit our Grandma Zobell's grave.
To update you with my health I have been going to see a chiropractor/homeopathic Dr., which a lot of people do not believe in.  All I have to say is you gotta do what works for you and after 10+ years of going to different western doctors who could not help me I feel the best ever.  I take a lot of vitamins, supplements, homeopathic drops, but I am slowly but surely getting off of prescription's.  I started on 5 and am now down to 3 and in a week or 2 will be on just 2.  I no longer have thyroid issues or depression.  I get adjusted regularly and have also had acupuncture.  I am so thankful for my friend Michelle referring me to Dr. Frazier!  I did hurt my back pretty bad this last week (I think using the rowing machine and gardening for 3 hours) and ended up not able to move much for 2-3 days, but I am grateful that my family was able to help me, especially Janet!!!

As far as looking for places to live, it is just time.  I am ready for my own place and wish I could afford it, but for now I have been looking for my own area.  The problem is I need to find someone to replace me in the house I currently live in and that is not happening.  I am trying to have patience and just take things slowly.  I am also looking for additional hours at work or if a better job comes along than I will take that.  I was offered a job on the spot yesterday, but it didn't have benefits so I declined. 

I am still trying to train for a half marathon I am doing in June.  The back injury held me back for awhile.  In the long run I am just looking to finish, not "race."  I am also looking forward to getting two new nephews soon, one hopefully in the next day or two and the other in July.  Oh, and I know am looking forward to our first family reunion in August!  Life is good:D
