I'm Doing alright

There are people in your life you will always remember. People who you can't seem to ever truly be rid of. The Garth Brooks song "Every Now and Then" ( I do think about you)
Oh the truth...I'll never fully be rid of this particular person because while they are not in my life (we're not even facebook friends) I am always reminded of their existence. I don't talk to them, I don't even have their number anymore...but there are songs, there are faces, there are cars, there are clothes, that will forever bring them to my mind.
What might have been? There is no good answer to that let's be honest.
 People may not belong in our lives but they are there under our skin and inside our subconscious.
I have a theory that if you meet a ton of people so that everything reminds you of someone different then the person you are trying to forget will no longer be a main focus. Plus it will be less encompassing when they do pop up!
Humm...lets test this theory out...People of the world I would like to meet you!

Shopping consultent

I would love a job where I advise people on what to buy. I took my two roommates shopping and I remembered how much I miss working with girls who just want to look their best.
Guys to! I like helping people find that balance between what's hot and trendy and what's their personal style.
I like my job I likeseeing all the HOT cars that people bring in and learning about how totake care of a car...
But I miss Heath and my Dad I miss giving them fashion adviceI like finding awesome deals and saving people money~sigh~
 yep personal shopper or shopping consultant is going on the "Dream job" list!

Easter Sunday

So today is Easter, I hope everyone finds this day joyful. I am Christian everyday of the year butI know I many people who find today and Christmas to be the only time they think of our savior. So to all the Christians (even only for the day) I say:
Easter is the time when we celebrate the Attonement of Christ. The time in spring when Jesus stopped time and space to make it possible for us to live again. It is a time to be gratful to your fellow man, feel empathy for our neighbors, and Love others with the understanding that Christ paid for whatever bad things they have done.
I totally love this holiday because even with all the bunnys, peeps, and egg baskets, Christ is always at the center in my family.
Enjoy Easter.
This is how I celebrate my savior, how about you?

Why I do

So people think I'm crazy, people see me as low. I work for min wage, at dead jobs, fighting to try and stay above water a feat I have never been able to do without help.
Thank you to that help.
Sorry if you to see me the way I now know some people see me.
I want you and the rest of my readers to know that I believe in God.
And I have NEVER taken a job I haven't prayed about.
I have never lowered my standards for those jobs even when pressured or threatened to have my employment terminated.
I have met amazing people and been able to be an example of an LDS woman to people I NEVER would have met had not lived this way.
I want to be author. I am horrible speller I have grammar mistakes every other word and typos are common, I get that.
I get that I may not be whatever your ideal 'anything' but I am proud of who I am.
I will continue to grow my writing can only improve and for those of you who think its "Too late"
to you I say
God gave me a lifetime and I will use it how He wants me to.
And the only way I can know what that is, is to keep in constant contact with Him. And follow what He says whenever I have that opportunity.
That is why I do what I do.
How about you?

I have a nephew!

So in January my sister Marlo gave birth to Ruester Scott Gibbs he is growing so fast and my niece Thae is almost crawling! It's insane how fast time flys!
Well I am doing good still moving forward and have lots of things plans for the future... I won't bore you with them now but hopefully I will have lots to write about!

I got a new hair style blond streaks in a purple weave of color...figure out what that means when I look in the mirror?

Had my 25th birthday got to hang out with my sister and sister-in-law and of course the babies!
Heath is doing good in UT I hope to go visit him this up coming General Conference!
My room mates are awesome I really like living here!
Josh is doing good his friendship has helped me in ways I can't even describe. but I'll just say he has taught me a lot about myself and how much I am able to handle and my ability to be strong even when I don't want to.
My job is nice, stressful at times but for the most part I am doing good...Josh may be working with me soon...Man I hope that works out its weird to think of mixing the two halves of myself...we'll see
I've been sick and so have my roommates I feel we are just going in sickness circles! that's so not cool!
Killer the dog is doing good. I walk him more often and he loves it!
So lots has change but mostly still the same.
I have started school again I love being in a class room! I just love learning yay me!
Well I think that's about all I have to say!

Pride in the fix it

So is it weird that I am super proud of myself for knowing how to fix my low tire?
I came out to my car and it saw that the right back tire was super low!
I did have a moment of panic thinking "I have gone through 3 of the 4 tires this car came with!"
But after calming myself down I realized, I knew just what to do.
I knew I had to go to QT because Air is free there, I knew which QT was closest to me, and I knew where the Air machine was there, I knew where my pressure tool was, I knew how to use it on the other tires to find out what the air needed to be (I didn't know that) And I knew how to use the Air machine to get my tire to where it needed to be! It has stayed up for two days now so I am not thinking the tire has a big hole or anything THANK GOODNESS!
I would like to say thank you to my Dad and Josh. If not for them I wouldn't have known what to do at all. And I would've had to call someone else to do it for me.
I would also like to thank the two men at the Air machine who stopped what they were doing on there car, to let me fill up my tire...one even pushed the buton for me so I wouldn't have to walk back to the machine...See there is hope for this world after all.
My question then is this, what small jobs are you proud that you can do alone, that maybe you were surprised you knew?

Moving out and moving on

So I am in the process of moving my 3 story house worth of stuff into one bedroom and a shared living space... Hard? Yes. Not so much psyically, since my brother and freinds are doing all the heavy lifting, but emotionally. As my brother pointed out, I have never had to give up anything I wanted to keep...I know I sound like a spoiled brat and while I am spoiled I like to think I'm not a brat...
Well, today was the first step, getting everything "big" to fit into the tiny room. I had to forgo my eliptical (Sad. I never really used it but now I will never get the chance) and the second bed I was going to put in my room will now be sent to a friend who is bedless at the moment along with my couch and some chairs. UGH! I hate not taking my things with me!
What will I do with my stuff? I can barly fit my fruniture in and yet I have boxes and boxes of STUFF that is yet to be divided up.... How do people do this? How do they let go???
I have pictures to go on walls, but not enough walls! I have lights, I have dishes, I have decorations all of which I want! I want to live here with my citrus trees and my shop and my piles of boooks and journals and I just can't do it! I may go crazy.....
Well everyone pray for the spoiled little rich girl who gets attached to things more than people.
I can get rid of people, no problem. Well some people. I bet I could easily fit ALL the people I refuse to get rid of in that little bedroom and still have room to spare. But ask me to give up my stuff and I'd rather have to climb over my dresser to get to my door then give it up....
Hum....Well, While I try and get my priorities straight, think of the things you can't live without. Are they people or things?
