Well hello there...

Yes I am still here.

And yes I realize that there is so much to catch up on.

Like:

• The 30 Day Challenge
• Moving
• Moving again (curious yet?)
• A certain boy
• Lots and lots about that certain boy

And last but not least I will leave you with a picture of something I have

been looking at lately.

Yeah I am excited! :)

Talk to you soon!

Rise and Shout!

This past Saturday I went with my Singles Ward to a

BYU football game!!!

It was so much fun.

(me, Jennifer and Melissa)

I hadn't been to a football game in a few years.

It was so fun to be in the crowd

cheering and yelling and just being completely "in" the game.

(cheap seats = the very top corner of the field)

There were few awkward moments

that had nothing to do with the game itself

but in the seating arrangements

but that is a story for another day...

Oh and BYU pulled out a win

so that made it even better!

Telephone

Two things I love about this video

1. Glee is back, and still amazing!!!
2. Some of the lyrics are very fitting for me right now

Nervous!

Right now I am waiting for a certain someone to come pick me up.

We are going to my cabin.

We as in me and him,

plus my parents, Jessica's family, Amanda's family and Keldon's family.

Besides the fact that everyone is going to be there,

we are staying overnight.

Wish me luck!

Funny story

So do you remember my post

on not recycling boys?

Well today I got a reminder about that.

The same guy that inspired the other post

text me today.

(I had already deleted his number

but I knew it was him)

He said,"So are we just not going to talk anymore?"

My reply, "Yeah pretty much"

(I am kind of a brat, I know but he deserved that!)

He asked, "Why"

I said, "We are looking for different things.

I am done."

His response,

"K do me a favor, delete me from your phone and from your life.  Maybe when you grow up you should look me up."

What? Really? 

I need to grow up when you are the one saying that?

I didn't dignify this with a response.

Then about five minutes later I get this text from him

"By the way. Richfield blows a$$, and your style is horrible."

Yeah, really those were the words.

I think we are all really happy that this

BOZO is now officially out of my life!

Recyle

Today was a reminder

once you have dated a guy

and things ended badly

STOP DATING THEM!!!

Don't give them third

and forth

and fifth chances

(yeah I think this was the fifth or

sixth chance with this kid)

Give it up!

MOVE ON!

And realize that you got

rid of him those other times

FOR A REASON!

No more recyling used boys...

Please take note to the following

So tonight I read this article

and it is so true!

I agree with all of these

plus I have a few of my own...

But I will bore you with those

some other time.

Click on the link above

and never say any of those to me!

Thanks!

I never told you my story

I just realized I never told you my story of why my hips hurt so bad!

I think it is pretty funny

so I hope you will too!

A few weeks ago a good friend sent me a text asking if I wanted to go for a four wheeler ride.

I love stuff like that so I said that sounded great!

Well when I got to his house he said we could take a four wheeler or the go-cart.

I had never been in a go-cart before

so I picked that one!

It was so much fun.

He is one of those guys that makes everything so fun,

and will just go kind of crazy with things,

but I know the whole time that even though he is driving

a little bit crazy,

I am perfectly safe.

Well we were a few miles out when we stopped for a minute

and he realized he didn't have his cell phone anymore!

Mine is a touch screen so I had left it at his house

so it wouldn't break.

We drove back and looked around for it

but couldn't see it so gave up and

hoped that it was just at his house.

We went back out and he let me drive a little and it was so much fun.

Then we started going off road a little bit

and decided to take this tunnel that goes under the freeway.

Well about 3/4 of the way through

the go-cart DIED!!!

Great....

So we pushed it back to the side we came in from

and all we could do was start walking home.

It was hilarious.

I had no problem walking back

(which was around 6 miles)

and it was the perfect chance to talk

and get to know each other better.

When we got to his home

we immediately got in the truck,

loaded up the four-wheeler on the trailer

and headed back to get the go-cart.

As soon as we got out of the truck where

the go-cart was I knew I was in trouble.

Side note: I have had bad hips for years.

When I use to dance I would have to have another girl stand on my legs to help pop them so I could do everything the way I was supposed to.

So why I didn't think a 6 mile walk over a

bumpy, rocky road with hills wouldn't affect them

I don't know.

Anyway the muscles cooled when I was sitting in

the truck and as much as it hurt

I was not about to admit that

I was DYING from pain!

So I was a trouper.

I helped unload the four wheeler

hooked up the cables so we could jump the go-cart

and walked along that bumpy road for a little bit all over again!

Then to top the evening off

we were spot-lighted by a cop from the freeway

and pulled over once we were back in town!

So yeah needless to say

It was a very eventful night!

But it was great!

I would do it all again,

even if it means I cant walk the next day!

:)

Today I need one of these

My hips are aching

I cant stand up,

I cant sit down,

I cant lay down,

without it hurting!

I am hobbeling around the house,

and my parents are laughing at me.

This is not fun...

Story of why I feel this way will come later...

at least it is funny....

The difference between a grown-up and a teenager

A few weeks ago my niece asked me a simple question,

"Laurie are you a teenager or a grown-up?"

Hmmm well I guess since I am no longer in my teens I am a grown-up right?

Apparently not in her way of thinking!

When I told her this her reply was simple,

"Oh I wasn't sure because I thought you had to have

a husband to be a grow-up."

Well guess I fail in that area then...

Does this mean I don't have to have any other grown-up

resposibilitys then like having a job and paying bills?
