Relax

I love Sundays. It's the only day of the week that I know we won't be busy! I taught Sunday school today, it went well. Then Josh and I went home to relax. We did some laundry, watched some TV and that's about it! Oh, we also moved the bed so that we can put the recliner next to it, so I can still sleep next to Josh after my surgery. For those of you haven't heard, I am having a second surgery on my wrist. My hardware is causing complications and so they're taking it all out. Last time I had this surgery, I couldn't lay down in my bed for about two weeks, mainly because I have to keep it elevated and also because i move around too much in my sleep. Supposedly the recovery is a lot quicker and there shouldn't be too many complications so we're not too worried about it. Plus, I have a super awesome husband who will take care of me.

Other than that, things have slowed down at work for me, so most of my temps are gone. I am not working super crazy hours anymore, still about 50-60 hours a week, but not as bad as before. Josh has been working in the valley lately, so it's been pretty convenient for when he accidentally takes both sets of jeep keys in the morning...

So overall we're doing pretty well, living the dream :)

So sick of this...

Our Mazda was broken into again last night. That's right, this is the second time in the last two months, and the third time a vehicle of ours has been broken into in the last 7 months. Sick huh? They didn't break anything, they much have jimmied the lock. Surprisingly I'm pretty sure they didn't steal anything either, although, they sure did make a mess!! When I got out to my car this morning, I noticed that my backpack was open, and on the ground next to my car. I distinctly remembered getting out of the car the night before, and noticing that my backpack was inside the car, and even asked Josh if he had put it in there for me (he did, he's such a sweetheart). Anyhow, I also remember debating locking the car and thinking about unlocking it to grab my backpack but deciding against it. So I know it was locked!!! Ugh stupid people! All they have done was create hassle and feelings of insecurities for us!! What other point is there? Do they just really enjoy making messes?? Well, we've had it, so I took the car to Best Buy and had a new security system installed. So we'll see what happens. Maybe the little blue flashing light will be enough to scare the thieves off :) Jake from work had his car broken into last night too. Except, his window was broken :( Sorry Jake and Misty, but it does make me feel a little better knowing that I wasn't the only victim.

On a brighter note, things at work are slowing down, which is such a relief considering I'm starting to get a little frustrated with all the temps and chaos. Don't get me wrong, I love the extra money and some of the temps are awesome... but I'm ready for things to go back to normal.

Josh has been working Saturdays, and I think he's working tomorrow too. At least if he does work tomorrow, I can go with him. I am so lonely when he's gone. And we barely see each other as it is, so it'll be nice to be together, even if it's working.

A day of mourning

A sad day for the Petersens. Morty has passed on.

A moment to breathe

Halloween is over, thank goodness. I like the fun festivities, but I get a little sick of it pretty quick. Except now there is nothing but Christmas decorations everywhere you look. What happened to Thanksgiving?? It makes me sick. Today is Sean's birthday, we went to his party last night. Nothing better than hanging out with the old singles ward... jk it wasn't too bad. Sometimes it is awkward, but at least we weren't the only married couple there.

I worked 147 hours on my last check. I am so glad that our busy season is almost over. It hasn't been too bad, but I am ready for a break. I miss eating at home :(

Oh I made cookies yesterday! They are so good! I think I'll take some to work tomorrow...or eat them all myself!! Josh worked for Bud yesterday, so I had some free time.

I really don't think I have any more updates, we're just too busy to have anything happening.
