New Directions...not like "GLEE"

I have been so tired lately with working and sleeping and relationshipping. I never really knew it was this much work to actually...I don't know...live? Of course I am happy with my life right now, but why does it make me so tired? I shouldn't complain though because I am blessed enough to have a job and to be living with my parents and to have an amazing boyfriend...

So why do I feel like I am not on the right path?

All day today I have been feeling like I am on a good path, but one that isn't for me at this time. Like I skipped a couple steps or something. Mainly I can't help but feel that I need to go on a mission, but I don't want to end up ending things with Charlie after we FINALLY got together after everything! I am calling President Leavitt and seeing if I can talk to him about all of this. Cuz this sister is certainly confused.

CHASE HAUVER IS HOME! I haven't seen that kid in two years and I probably still won't see him until his homecoming talk this Sunday. It was funny because I was talking to his brother Oliver and I said to tell Chase "hi" and Oliver texted me back right away saying "Chase says 'hi' back" lol apparently Chase was right next to him. It is so great to have him home! Now all the Phab Phive needs is Jaren home and our group is complete...of course I might be on a mission before he gets home so they will have to wait for me! We buried a time capsule before Tristin left on his mission (well the Sexy Six did) and we said we wouldn't dig it up until the last of us was home from the mission. Well Jenny is married, Tristin and Colton came home early, Chase just finished his mission, Jaren still has about ten months or so, and I am kinda in limbo if I am going or not right now. It is really exciting though and I am glad to have a friend back!

OMG the last song on GLEE this week made me cry...I don't even really know why, but I was crying a little and I was kind of embarassed, but I didn't care because it was cool. I love that show!!!! Also I am all caught up on True Blood now so this week I won't be confused on the episode hahaha also my mom has the newest Sookie Stackhouse Novel but she won't let me read it yet. I am bummed and pretty sad because I love those books and she is an impossibly slow reader while I could easily read it in a couple days or so and have it back to her pronto! I am so glad though that SEVEN  more books are being written. EEEEK!!! My life is way happy now!!!!!!

Here are some of my favorite quotes from the past week...just to show you how awesome it has been.

"As long as you are stripping things...and not people"- Sister Bush talking to Charlie at his house when he said he liked stripping things....she was looking at me when she said "people"

"I hope mom shares"- My sister Taylor. Now imagine her drooling over a box of chocolate strawberries that my sister erica had sent my mom for mother's day/ her birthday. It made me laugh.

"Do you sell hot dogs?"-Random McDonald's customer ordering...hot dogs... O_O

"Believe it or not her cake was pretty good!"-Me accidently making the Relief Society President sound like a bad baker....she actually is pretty amazing...believe it or not... XD

Relationship Status has changed.

Charles Sherman Bush and myself are in a relationship. Yes it is true....and no it isn't a joke or something although it is pretty funny that it took us this long to get going. We have been really close friends for a couple years now and finally we are together!!!! His dad put is the best way "It's about damn time!" For most people it came out of the blue, but he and I have been talking about it on and off for a few weeks now and we made it official yesterday! I am so happy and I am amazingly grateful that he is in my life. He and I went to do baptisms for the dead and I was nervous the whole time, but when I came out from changing I saw him being a witness for a group before us and I was just overwhelmed with feelings that I can't even explain. He baptized me and I was just...I could cry haha. I am so glad that he has the Power of the Priesthood and was able to be there with me for my first time doing baptisms. Being there in the temple with him was pretty much awesome and we are going to do baptisms more often together.

We have been together for one day and already I am happy beyond measure haha I have been smiling all day and I can't stop smiling! I found a guy who fits my patriarchal blessing and I didn't even know it til I actually gave him a chance! Funny how Heavenly Father placed him in front of me and I was too stubborn to really notice. No matter what happens with us I will never us at all. He is one of my best friends and we will always have that. Yes we annoy the crap outta each other at times, and we fight over things, but we always come back to each other and move forward instead of staying in one place. I am so excited to see what is in store for us and I am so glad to have this chance at happiness with him! Life is very good right now.

Some Pictures of my life lately

Charlie and I at the Clark County Fair!!!

I started working at McDonald's

Miracle League-ing with the siblings!

My bestest friend Barbara came to visit!!!!

Erica came back home to NV for the fair

I will post up more when i get more. I really should be good at posting more pics up on this thing to actually prove I exist and live life as I say hahaha but for now you all will have to be content at just waiting for them.

Didn't see that coming

Turns out life is surprisingly amazingly awesome sometimes. Heavenly Father has released me of that one guy.....yeah clean slate and no attachments anymore. I feel so light and lifted and just completely free to move on and to find someone who knows I am worth fighting for. I know that now and I know that being in that type of situation where it is one sided is no bueno for anyone. I find myself open to new options and opportunities and I feel like a huge weight has lifted and I am actually happier. I honestly think that the situation I was in was keeping me depressed and now that I am done with it I feel so much better. Of course I still have a problem, but I know that I am one step closer to true happiness. Tomorrow I see Dr. Brad and than in two weeks I see Wade. I am going to drop off some scripts tomorrow so I can get back on my meds.

Want in on a secret? I am amazingly fast at the Drive Thru...pretty sure I am wicked awesome and everyone knows it...okay so maybe I am not exactly pro, but I do have some pretty impressive skills. I have learned patience and how to be kind to complete a-holes from working here. Thank you Mickey D's for teaching me things I forgot how to do...like smile even when I want to punch someone and foot massaging!

Big Steps!

Tonight I start off on a new journey. It is one that I have been looking forward to and I am finally getting the guts to set the plans rolling.

Would You Like Fries with that?

I am working at McDonald's in Mesquite...well one of them and I am quickly becoming the Drive Thru Queen! Okay so maybe my skills aren't that impressive yet, but for only three days and being able to take orders and stuff with minimal supervision is pretty impressive. AND I clean dishes and make parfaits and salads (well eventually) I did make 5 parfaits tonight so whatever! My hours are the later shift hours so that will be fun and basically that is when I am most awake anyways. My feet are killing me though but now I have the proper shoes and some foot gel pad stuff so I should be fine! Also I work with Morgan Jobst and I am pretty sure it is awesome. Everyone is so nice and helpful and it is really a fun experience so far.

Friday we had a surprise party for Barbara at Logandale park, it was pretty awesome and although we didn't get to watch any movies, we did play a ton of fun games and we had awesome frosting wars and water fights. I think almost everyone got frosting on their face/hair and water squirted on them. Of course Oliver went and dumped two bag fulls of water on me...and neglected to return to the favor to jason who has squirted him with water too. Robert and I wrestled over a gun, he did squirt me a couple times, but I ended up with the gun so in all due respect I have to say that I won. He is pretty strong though and I had to really try haha but I STILL GOT IT!!!!!

This past week I was out in California taking Erica home from Nevada. I came home on Wednesday after picking up Barbara who happened to be in Huntington Beach....yeah I managed to get lost and ended up near San Pedro Harbor...I turned around and found the PCH than a short while later I found Barbara. It was a fun ride home and I am glad we got to spend quite a bit of time together. We saw Alice in Wonderland on Saturday and tomorrow morning she is leaving to Rexburg since school starts on Tuesday for her...I am really going to miss her. That woman is my best friend and it really sucks not seeing her, even though we talk all the time.

I need to go and talk to President Leavitt. I have to get the ball rolling on some things and I know he can help me with them. I have a lot to think about and a lot to plan for and I need some guidance. He will know what to do. I am so excited though for this year. I have a feeling a lot is going to be changing and soon!!!

Miracle League!!!!

This Saturday is the Miracle League Opening and I am going to be a buddy for two of the three games! I am so excited about it and I am just THRILLED that FINALLY after like 6 years the field is up and running and that I get to be a part of such a wonderful organization! Helping people with disabilities to play America's favorite pasttime....seriously how wonderful is that?!

I invite everyone who can make it to 101 South Rancho Drive, Las Vegas, NV on the 10th to come out and enjoy it! You can sign up to be a buddy (only wise if you plan on coming to games to help play) or if you are just visiting you can watch and buy a shirt or a hat and just enjoy the wonderfulness of it all!

I can bet you there won't be a dry eye in the place when Dan "the Man" throws that first pitch! He has been practicing and I have heard that he has quite an arm!

YAY MIRACLE LEAGUE!!!!
