Since my computer has been repaired, I need to be able to catch up on my digital kits. I haven't been working on them as hard as I need to, but I finally got 2 out of the 3 done that I need to, and now I need to make a preview for the kits.
I have been busy working, the spa is still inconsistent which is what is expected. It gets busy, and then it gets slow, so that's how it all goes. I am not complaining as long as I have some work. I don't like being idle. It drives me crazy.
I am trying hard to rejoin the singles in the area, but they are so young and it makes me feel so crazy. I don't like the fact that I feel like I am the mom looking after all the young ones, they are all just out of high school or just getting home from their missions... Crazy stuff.
It has been enough to keep me pretty busy, so I will try to update when I have more to say.
Life isn't made up of the number of breaths we take, but the moments that take our breath away.

Moved
So I have officially MOVED back into my parents house. I had a TERRIBLE cold after I moved in, my poor family. It was bad, it made my breathing hard. I could barely talk because I couldn't breathe when I talked, so it was pretty scary. It seemed like I had pneumonia, or Bronchitis. It was pretty scary for me, I don't have insurance.
I went to bed that night, and got a fever. It was pretty bad, I lay in my bed and it was just like I was in an oven. I was burning up and not sweating. Lovely, huh? So we put on the humidifier, and my mom checked on me a few times. When I woke up the next morning, I had better breathing, thank goodness! And my fever was gone, so that was fabulous. I was still coughing, and it was just nice to be able to breathe. I got up and I had no energy whatsoever. I spent about a week in my house, in my room with the humidifier going and on my bed. I finally got my bed moved over once the wind died down, it was pretty bad. The winds were about 60 mph so we couldn't exactly get the trailer over to my sister's to get the bed.
My poor work, I had to take a week off and get over this cold. It was annoying because I never take time off work. EVER. But now, I have a cough that only comes when it wants to hack up a lung. It's lovely, but whatever it is or how long it's going to take to get rid of, I hope it doesn't affect my work. How much fun will it be to get a massage when the massage therapist is coughing all over you? Or can't breathe because she is coughing so hard? Laughs, that may be something the spa doesn't like.... But it would sure be a bunch of giggles and grins, right?

Moving day is almost here....
Yes, I know I haven't really put a lot on here lately and that is my fault. What is going on is I am moving in with my parents to allow my sister some more time with her family. I am pretty excited, but also sad to leave the kids and my sister. It's not lik I am going to Utah, but I am still moving, and that is hard.
I am having a harder time getting ready for this one because I don't really have boxes I am putting everything in like I normally do but it's not like I am going to move many states away, it's pretty close to my sister. The only thing I am going to have to do is get all my movies in a box. A lot of my stuff is already in the garage, so it will be nice to be able to finish up with what I have in the house right now.
So that's what I have been up to, I know thrilling right? It's not so bad but it's a lot of work to get all my stuff moved. Tomorrow is the big day... Hopefully everyone is ready for this.

What are people thinking?
Do people think I like to be reminded that I am single and that I need a man in my life? That I like to be told that I am not doing enough? That I am reminded constantly how I need to "Get a life" and stop hanging out with my family?
I KNOW that I am single, but that's something I have no control over. I don't know when anything is so that is why I don't go! I don't like my ward right now, something I need to work through and having someone push me isn't going to make it happen any faster.
I just don't know what people expect of me. They expect me to be this super amazing, single woman who is never home, always working and dating, always out with other single people. Well guess what? That's not me! I am not this super amazing woman who is always working and dating. I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THAT!! PLEASE STOP WORRYING ABOUT ME!!!
AND PLEASE stop telling me to get a life. It really hurts. I just can't take it anymore. If people don't lay off, I will start fighting back. And that's not something I want to do.

FINALLY
My computer has been fixed. My brother is an angel, and so is my father. They helped me to get this all fixed, and really it was mostly my brother. My dad just gave me a new monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers. Love it!
So I have started creating again, and now I am working on some new kits. I have like 4 that I need to make, and hopefully I will be able to get some of them up on my other blog soon. YAY!!

SO the problems are ALMOST OVER!
Here is what has been going on, sadly I have to catch up a lot!!
So, the last time I posted was... A while ago. I have a season pass to Disneyland, YAY!! I got it when we went for Alex's Birthday! It was Fantastic to go and know that I can come back! So we went and I was able to see it through the eyes of a child which hasn't happened for a really long time. It was amazing to be so excited about everything. To see the characters, to see the rides and the shows, to see them all as if they were all real. He was so excited, he kept yelling out their names, and he picked where we went.
Then my best friend in Utah came down and stayed with me for 5 days. I was SO happy to have her come down, my mom came to the airport to pick her up with me. We got to go to Disneyland on Wednesday and go on the FAST rides. Surprisingly California Adventure had drained their lake and they were working on some new light show that is going to start next year in the spring and took out a few of the rides that are on the lake too.
We also went on Toy Story Mania, which by the way is SO much fun! And we then toured the Tortilla factory, and went over to Disney and spent the rest of the day there after lunch. We DID go to Build-A-Bear and built each other a stuffed animal and dressed them and all. (So my idea, I know, I am a nerd at times. But it was fun! And we have something nice!) I got a Snow White Bear, and she got a Belle Koala. VERY CUTE!
So we spent that time there, and I had to work sadly the rest of the time. But luckily we didn't have to spend ALL our time left at my job. We bought the Twilight Movie, we hung out, and laughed and talked just like old times. It really made me miss her. And then I took her to the airport on Sunday. It was SO hard to let her go back to Utah, because she is such a wonderful friend. But I did what I had to, and it was nice to have some time with my friend.
I have also helped my sister with sewing some clothes for her daughter. She is making 2 dresses, a skirt, and my mom made her some pajamas. My mother also made her a dress, so my niece will have 3 dresses when all is said and done. But the funny thing, the pajamas are HUGE on her. She is SO petite, and the pajamas are absolutely too big. It looks really funny, but she also looks VERY cute!
I am currently working with my brother on trying to get my computer to work, and getting my programs back on it for the designs I am doing, and getting the internet back on it so I can post more of what I am working on. I have a LOT Of stuff to do when I get the internet back, so my sister will not have to worry about me using her system any more. I AM SO grateful that she is letting me use her computer and internet.
Work is good, things are going well. I have regular clients now, and I have people referring which is always a pleasure. And I have a lot of headaches, but I am working on solving that as well. So all in all, it's a good life.
I am working on gettine more friends out here, I need to get more involved with the singles. I don't want to, really. They are VERY immature, and very annoying. But It's something I need to do, darn it. Just got to swallow my pride, open up, and say Hi. You never know, someone may be waiting for me just around the corner right?
