Really? Why do I have a blog?

So nothing even happens that I feel like blogging about, maybe if I talked to my sister for less than 8 hours a day there would be something left to say. However, I really cracked myself up today, so I thought I would share. Do you ever think that your inner dialogue is just SOOO funny? I always do. You will catch me smiling and chuckling to myself all day long (I am so lame, I can't even believe I am telling you this). The worst part, is it is not even funny!! If I said any of this stuff out loud (and let's be honest, I have) it can bring an entire room to a stand still. People just look around like, "Did she really just say that". On that note, the word that I have been meaning to share (again, words I HATE) . . . . Erect! Never buy your kids an erector set. I never want to hear the phrase Sit erect, or stand erect. Let's just do away with that word!

Where in the world is ... a cool place to visit?

I don't know if anyone even reads this blog, and I especially don't know if my ladies vacation club members read it, but I am getting the bug to plan our next girls trip. The only problem is, I have no ideas where to go. So . . . whether you choose to vacation with us or not (you choose to be a party pooper) I need some ideas of where to go! I am open to just about anything in the continental United States. We try to keep total costs under $1000. (Well under if possible) Give me your ideas. Where is a fun place you have lived or visited? Where is a fun place you would like to visit? Are you going to join us this year? (And April, if you are reading this, yes you are invited, and no, sorry, Disneyland won't make the cut - I know I am a hater!)

Clean office=New Lame Word

I promised not to update my blog, or read any one elses blog until my office was clean, and here I am, so you guessed it, MY OFFICE IS CLEAN!!! That should last for about 2 minutes. Anyway, there is stuff happening at our house. Kim and her family are moving in tomorrow. They are going to stay here until they sell their house and buy a new one (she doesn't read my blog so can you say TRIPLE COMMISSION) . Anyway, I am sure there will be adventures to share during this transition (or maybe that can't be shared - you will have to just call me for the trash talk). I still wanted to leave you with the word of the day. I actually was going to put this one up a few days ago but I was reminded again of it during scripture study the other night. The word is . . Bosoms I put it small so you would remember to do little giggles! My kids have recently discovered this word and think it is hilarious so imagine the response when we were doing our stake sponsored 100% month challenge and reading our scriptures together as a family and we came across this word. I wasn't sure Jake would be able to keep reading. I had to quickly look in my index to find another scripture that appropriately defined the word. Nice - what is up with all the good words that have turned bad. (Are you old enough to remember "When grandpa comes we're GAY") It is just terrible. Which gives me a great idea for a word I have hated for over 16 years. Now you have something to look forward to. p.s. 100% month for our stake is daily scripture study and prayers, meeting attendance, home and visiting teaching and attending the temple - so get on your 100% month. I can send you the cute little calendar with the fill in boxes if you want!

words i hate

Okay - so your are seeing that my life is boring (either that or I am too busy reading other peoples blogs to have my own life!!) So I decided that because I am bad at letting you know what is going on in my life I will make myself post something. I decided that my "something" will be ranting about words I hate and why I hate them. (The idea came to me about 1 am yesterday - I know I am a loser!!) So are you ready for today's word? . . . . . . MOIST I don't know why - it is a seemingly normal word, but it grosses me out!! And I hate in prayers at church, when people say thank you for the moisture - it is RAIN or SNOW. Moisture - eww. So I hope your cakes are delectable, delicious, airy whatever, but just not MOIST. Now be honest, who thinks I should be voted of the blogging island!
