What up peeps?

Yayhoo or SomethingHi ya'll. I've been lazy to blog or email or talk to anyone of late. Perhaps it's a little bit of the winter blahs so I've gone into hermit mode or something. Or maybe it's just been pure laziness. Or maybe it's just my personality to naturally keep to myself. I really have to talk myself into putting in any kind of effort to connect with people cause I'm a scaredy-cat. Good thing I've had a Ryan around, though. He's super! It's been good to be able to go walking with mom as well. I love you all though, so I hope you know it despite all my craziness!!
So Mindy's sweet mister is off to flying school. Good luck Bryant. Sorry if I spelled that wrong? If you get a little lonesome, Mindy, come hang out with me! That is, if you get a minute to breathe between school and work. And whoever else wants to and is able to get together for walks, talks, eats, movies, games, whatever.
I hope everyone has a happy Valentine's Day! I really hope Celeste's tests go well, and that she's healthy and all that. I love you all!

Hello 2007

Yayhoo or SomethingIt is indeed a new year. Happy 2007! Ryan and I had an enjoyable Christmas and a happy new year. We spent our time going from one parents' home to the other. We also got ot go to the Reeder's annual boxing day tea party. I'm feeling bad that I haven't spent more time with Tye while she's been here. Sorry Tye. I guess we've both been busy with our families and such.
For Christmas Ryan got me this self-improvement journal where for one week you work on something. Last week was to smile, and this week is prayer. I really like it. Hopefully it is helping me to progress. He got me some other neat things as well, but I won't list it out for you if that is alright.
This week I've been walking with mom in the mornings. Aren't I a lucky girl? It has been really nice. Here's a silly thing though, I come home and go back to bed if you can believe it.
Last night we played a game that Mark and fam. gave us for Christmas. It was a lot of fun, but Ryan won, of course. He has won me in every strategic kind of game every time. I just win in the all luck ones where you don't have to use your brain.
Anyway, hope you all are well and have had good holidays and such. Good luck this 2007. Hope it's a good one for all of us!

Happy Christmas all and to all a good night!!

Yayhoo or SomethingI spent a loverly morning with Tye and Millie today. They are both cute heads. I am happy they're here for a spell. They fed me some yummy zucchini lasagna for lunch. Yummy.
After work Art and I went to the hospital to see Sheryl (a former Katie babysitter) and her brand new little one. I got to hold him. He's a lump of cute.
Okay, so I just saw a little mouse run from our bedroom behind the entertainment center and it just about gave me a heart attack. The stupid little intruder. We've been hearing them in the walls. Yicky!
Anyway, at the moment Ryan is playing with little kid toys called K'nex and enjoying himself mucho. What a goofy guy.
Tonight I made peanut brittle. I couldn't believe it when Ryan told me he'd never had it before. We will just have to wait a spell and see if it sets up properly. It looks normal, so I have great hopes. Tomorrow I will attempt english toffee.
We have our Christmas music on, the tree lights on and a candle lit, so what with the candy making and toy playing it is feeling quite Christmasy delightful. Yes in deed. Except the mouse is not sleeping.
Happy Christmas to you all!!

Nada Mucho.

Yayhoo or SomethingRyan and I are moving up in the world. Come January we will be graduating from nursery and moving up to Sunbeams (or Sunbeans if you will). I'm a little timid about the thought of that, as in shaking in my boots. Sharing time is a scary scary thing.
Ryan is off home teaching at the moment. I was really bad and didn't go visiting teaching for January. Poop on me. I feel especially bad about it because both my companion and the one remaining girl we visit are moving some time this month. I feel like the biggest stupahed you have ever met, so there. Stupahead!
That is all I feel to write at this moment. Goodbye.

Duck Duck Goo us!!

Yayhoo or Something: Ryan quit making it smell in here!
We played duck duck goose in nursery today and Ella says it goo us in the most adorable voice. And Hudson said that he is thankful for Satan. Hmmm...what fun. We also had a tour of the men's bathroom. Goo Us!
If it worked there is un picture of Ryan in his knew stud muffin specks. He is a great one. He helped me clean the apartment yesterday (good thing cause home teacher, and I do mean one, came today). He scrubbed the toilet and mopped the kitchen and bathroom and did dishes and vacuumed and I don't know what, oh dusted as well. What a swell guy! Ryan, not the hometeacher, although he's a nice fellow I am sure.
Today we had a fun time playing with Bailey, Grayson, and Kinley and eating mom's yummy food. Thank you mom!
I've been making some petty awesome (aka: special) christmas tree ornaments of late. I will have to post a picture of the finished results on the tree. Mom is going to let us use one of the Duncun donated ones (I am aware that Megan will need it back for relief society at some point). I'm excited. Heee!
What else to say? I was going to write a little about work, but I don't really feel like saying anything mas at the moment. So just know that I think of you all all of the time and think that you are swell.
By the way Erin, Ryan and I are addicted to suerte. I mean the whole CD is mucho fun, but this song is too much. We dance around like fools. yayhoo or something! Also, loveing the slippers. Thanks pal.

Hope it was swell!

Well, I hope that everyone had a delightful Halloween! I enjoyed the pictures on your blogs of your kiddies all dressed up. I remember being excited for the dressing up and more for the candy. I also remember making mom's life miserable with whining and tears trying to get the costumes to work out the way I wanted. Props to my mother - you the best!
I wanted to make cookies and carve pumkins and run through the leaves and hand out candy and watch a not-so-scary scary movie and eat pizza and candy and have my house clean and have a fall candle smelling the place up and coziness by the fire. Whelp, I guess there is always next year, right all?
We did end up watching a movie, and it was even a little scary called Funny Farm. So that was good, and I also handed out a few treats to the little spook heads while I was at Art's, Yo.
You know what? I think I could use a major make-over. Yes, that would be nice. Maybe start with a cutting of the hair. Okay, so maybe not major, but I just feel kind of like a mess lately. Mess!
Oh yes, I just wanted to say a BIG FAT THANK YOU to all who wished me happy b-day. Thanks!
Have a swell one! And see yas all later. I pretty much miss everybody, so there.

Ryan quit making it smell in here!

Yayhoo! Thanks for reading and commenting on my blog sister heads! Hmmm...now what to say? I was going to write my talk today, but have decided to get cracking on that tomorrow. I know, bad bad. At least it's on charity and not on procrastination.
Ryan and I are excited because our insurance finally came today. We were starting to wonder, so we are happy about that. Hopefully we have made a good insurance choice, but pretty much I'm a dur-head so who knows. Not so happy about the payments that will begin to empty our account every month, but I know in the long run it is the smart way to go.
I think Ryan would prefer for me to put away the dag computer so we can go and do something. That is neat.
Tye just e-mailed their kind of "keep the masses informed" email, and it was accompanied with some cute pictures. You all need to see the pictures of their Millie. There's this one where she is doing this crazy smile and looks just like Macey doing one of her funny faces. Pretty cool.
P.S. Ryan likes to pop my toes.
Also, Micquel and Mindy had fun at the Dashboard Confessional concert if anyone wanted to know. (Thanks for texting me Micquel! Me guta mucho)
Loves to all!
Bye.

Okay, so I just ate a really good hamburger if you wanted to know. Ryan picked it up by special request cause he is nice like that. He gets to go and take his midterm today, so at the moment he is studying and acting quite mad, as in just like me when I study in a whacky mood. For example singing or talking in a funny way the items trying to be commited into memory. Really I wish I was recording this, because it is very intertaining.
Anyway, our home teacher came over yesterday, and I felt awkward, but what else is new? Awkward is my middle name.
Tye called me today, and that made me soo happy. Katie was being a little fussy at the time, so I'm afraid I was a bit distracted. She is acheivement day leader and they are making cookies in a jar to give to all of the widows at Christmas time. Cool as some beans.
Ryan is seriously talking to himself. Ha Ha Ha!!!
I guess in a way, that is pretty much what I am doing.
Whelp, now it is time to quiz Ryan, so ta ta for now nobody.

Big Blab

I have nothing to report. Went to Katie's today. There was a little scheduling mixup, so I got off an hour later than normal; But these days, who's to say what the normal schedule is? It has been a little crazy lately, but has worked out alright. It kind of forced me to take more hours, which is probably good. But, I mean, poor Katie what with having to be around me so much.
After work, I went to Costco (aka disney land) with my beautiful mother. It was a crazy busy place and totally awesome. I sampled a cracker with this artichoke spread and bought some because it was that good. Yummy. Ryan says yucky, but that is to be expected as he does not like artichokes in any form he has come accross so far in his life. He dooesn't like peanut butter, pickles, and yellow mustard either, if you wanted to know. Oh yes, and tomatoes, he just reminded me. But if they are mixed in a dish he doesn't mind them so much.
Ryan got me an early B-day present. The Biggest Loser recipe book. I'm kind of sort of trying to eat healthier, but nothing too overly strict mind you.
I've been checking out children's picture books to read to Katie, and have found that I get pretty excited to read a new story and see the illustrations. Hopefully Katie is getting some enjoyment out of them too. I also checked out a Thomas Hardy book of short stories. I don't know why I did. I don't really want to read it. Who knows if I will.
Anyway, so long nobody in particular.

Yo!

I have no idea what the crack I am doing. Why would I ever want to have a blog? We all know that I have nothing really to say. Silly Billy Poofish! I went to the doctors office today with Katie and Art. The power went out and they don't have a generator so Katie got her shot in the dark. Poor girl; She hates the doctor's office. Well of course she does. Ryan is watching a football game. That is neat. I made pizza for dinner tonight. I guess it turned out all right. Okay so something exciting just happened in the game because Ryan just turned the TV up to just about full blast. He does that. The more exciting the game, the louder the TV becomes. He says he likes to hear the crowd cheering. Man, I love this kid. Anyway, I am pretty much tired, so maybe I'll get Ryan to come read scriptures for a few minutes before I shut my two weary eyeballs. Shoot. I just realized that I have to make the dang bed before that can happen. Ah well. Just a few more minutes added before dreamy time. No biggy. Sometimes I really want to be a mom, if you wanted to know. But then I think, do I really? I mean, you know, everything that being a parent means. I don't know about it. Me and Ryan parents. Hmmm. But then I still want it, so there you have it. I make not a much sense. Not a much of the time. Wha?
