I'm bored.
So when I had quit my jobs and started to re-evaluate my life and my goals and I decided to learn one thing new every month. Something artsy and crafty. Did you know that getting started on artsy crafty stuff is expensive??? I wanted to learn how to knit but all of the good instructions dvds and books were expensive. Then I decided that I wanted to leanr how to bead necklaces. To make them look cool, also expensive. I also want to sew stuff and improve my sewing ability, but I have no sewing machine, and they are expensive. Granted most of this stuff really wouldn't be very expensive if I was making money. Hopefully something will work out soon. Anyone know any cool cheap craft projects???

Oh Iowa...
Well, I think that it is long overdue for a blog. Jonathan and I got all moved to Iowa. It is crazy to think that I live in Iowa. Weird Good though, we really like it. People here are so much nicer than other places that we have been. OUr apartment is nice and much roomier than our place in Salt Lake and those of you who experienced our small apartment, know that it isn't very hard to find something bigger. Since we have been here I have already had 2 jobs and now looking for a 3rd. As soon as we got here I got hired for a bridal shop down the street and it seemed to be perfect, however then I met the owner. She just runs her business a little sketchy, so I started working for a compan called Vangent that helps students fill out the FAFSA. After about a week I felt really uncomfortable about it and so now I am once again looking for a job. However, the day after I decided to quit Vangent, I get a call from the District Manager of Motherhood Maternity. A friend of hers from Coldwater Creek that I almost interviewed with, gave her my name. I interview today. Pretty whirlwind. Wewill have to see what happens. Jonathan it working for ATT as their Apple Product Professional for the new iphone. He is really excited to work with it. So that is up to date in a nutshell. More to come as the adventures of Iowa unfold!!!

Wednesdays
I like Wednesdays. They are slower than the other days and it gives me a chance to catch up on emails and my blog. Nice. It's the calm before the storm I guess you could say. So Jonathan and I have no idea when we are moving and it is driving me crazy. I like to plan things way far in advance, and it is hard when I can't do that. We are excited to move and will probably move in May or June sometime. We will have to see. I feel bad leaving work so early, but I am excited to go. Who knows.

Don't Yell at the Messenger
Why is it that brides feel a need to get mad at me, when I have no control over the company that is making their dress? This lady called and wanted to order the most awful bridesmaid dresses in the most awful colors; Tangerine, Fushia, Electric Blue, and Key Lime. It also doesn't help that the dresses are these frufy, but the company that has them is out of stock, so it is going to take 14 weeks to order and they won't come in until about a week before the wedding. We have a style that is almost exactly the same that we have in stock and she could have in a couple weeks, but she said she hated it, which I don't know how that works. CRAZY! So she is angry with me because her dresses are coming in right before the wedding. Not my fault. Don't yell at the messanger, please, we don't appriciate it and it isn't our fault.

The Bandwagon...
Well I thought that I would join today's world and start my own blog. Here it goes...
Life as I know it is very interesting right now. Jonathan is busy with school and getting ready for his recital in April, and I am working at LatterDay Bride. So things are going well, and we decided that it is off to Iowa for next year for Jonathan's Doctoral program. Get ready for the snow!! I told Jonathan I'm excited to go to Iowa, and I really I am, but in order for me to move there I will require covered parking. I discovered this desire last week while Jonathan was in Florida for an audition and it snowed about 6 inches, which isn't alot, but it was heavy wet snow and it took me 15 minutes just to get the snow off my car. Six inches isn't alot and it was time consuming and Iowa gets a lot more snow than we do here. It is going to be a very fun and interesting adventure. Bring it on!!!
