Another week down, each week we all grow, learn, care, feel, and love. Every week that I am here is amazing. Even though sometimes the week isn't that interesting or overwhelming, but sometime a plain Jane week is what we need to think about how blessed and thankful we are to God.
This past week has been just that plain Jane. Everything is going great. Steve and I went to the temple Tuesday night. After going to do God's work there was a great feeling that overcame me, I felt like God was padding me on my back. Every once in a while everyone needs a little pick me up.

Today is my best friend birthday. She is my sister that came from another mother. We have always said that we are going to be these old women in our rocking chairs on our porch laughing about the past and yelling at kids. I am so proud of her, we have been through a lot and we were hinged at the hips the entire time. She is my go to when I can't take life anymore. She knows more than my mom, all the bad decisions and stupid things I have done. I first met her at church when Fred her dad brought her into Sunday school. I didn't like her that much at first, but she grew on me. So much we became partner's in crime throughout the years. I can't believe the stuff we pulled off and did as we grew up. I am grateful that no policeman wasn't around when doing the things we did with our friends. Many great and fun memories have been made and more to come :) Happy Birthday Scottie. You are my rock. You have become an amazing woman with your drive, determination and your on in a million personality. Love you just a wee bit.

quarantine = self reflection

I was talking with my lovely mother on Facetime this morning and she suggested to post on my blog. I look at my blog and noticed I haven't posted since November! So here you go, during this crazy time I am no longer working and my day to day tasks have shifted drastically. I am sure all of you know what is going on all over the world. I hope all of you are staying safe and healthy. I have been in this situation before. I was taken out of the game due to my heart, my life was soccer. Now my life was going to work and heading off to soccer practice, but COVID-19 has taken that away. I am reflecting on my response when my heart wasn't doing that well. At first I was frustrated and asking why? Now I am doing the same thing. WHY? Because I am HUMAN I know!!! This time I caught myself and decided to choose another route.  My alternate route has been getting outside every darn day, no matter the weather and enjoying the beauties of this earth, sun, clouds, rain, breeze, nature, the ...

This past week was a wake up for our Wrigley. We had a dog trainer come over to our house and teach us how to break his habits of aggression towards other dogs and people. We learned how Wrigley communicates and when to give affections and praise and when not to. Now that we have the proper tools rather than the wrong ones. We are excited to help train Wrigley's behaviors into more friendly ones. This process is going to be long, but just like our surrogate process we are going to dive in and handle whatever is to come. With the surrogacy I have spoken to my parent's neighbor about being our attorney and she agreed to represent us.  This weekend we headed up to Boise. Steve and I have always liked the idea of Boise, so we went to go and checked out some places. We got these bikes at the hotel we were staying at for FREE and rode around downtown Boise. We had a blast riding around to all the places. On the way home, we stopped to see Idaho State women's soccer play. They be...

New Day, New Chapter, New....????

After the other days SHOCKing experience, I had to go into the clinic today to have my device interrogated.   Basically find out why I got shocked…. Was it warranted?? My device is set to SHOCK me if my heart gets beating too fast, like 180bpm or higher. Which I guess I excreted myself too much yesterday. This is a little bit upsetting, I was hardly up the trail and I got shocked. How am I supposed to do anything physical and not get shocked? Think about trying to exercise but also having to worry about a horse kicking you in the chest at any time.   Leaving the clinic I was pretty bummed… Is my heart just getting worse? Anyway, I went to work at straws and about an hour into work the clinic was calling me. I didn’t want to answer because I had a feeling my INR would be too low again and I would have to be admitted to the hospital. Anyway, I answered and Dr. Kia was on the line. He said “I heard you left upset from the clinic today?” I figured he was about to give me a pe...
