Lortab

This is my first time on lortab. Guess doctor thought my migraines were bad enough, no only are they reoccurring for the past 3 days, but they hurt like no other. So he gave me lortab.
Lortab + Teaching Cued American English = BAD idea
It didn't kick in until 2 1/2 hours after I took it. Luckily mom was there to take over as we were co teaching for the night. It ended up with me rolling my eyes around and slurring my speech. She had to explain to them what happened, especially since I was on BYU campus teaching BYU students....yeah
lortab...wow.

sick

My leg (right leg) is still recovering from the allergy reaction i got from being sunburned/getting too much sun. It's still retaining water, and i guess i had my left leg on top of my right while i was sleeping, so when i woke up there was a huge indentation on my right leg. it took me a minute to figure out how in the world i did that, especially since i do have a tendency to have weird things to my body. I got a migraine last night for the second time ever, the first time was in seventh grade. This may not seem like a big deal to many of you, but i don't deal well with pain that isn't a bump on the head/bruise/cut/broken bone. I don't like aches, and thus I don't deal well with it, lucky for me, cramps last...12 hours and that's it. I think that's why. Anyway, so i got a migraine while shopping with bryan yesterday, near the end of shopping, and it got worse on my way home to heber from slc, and i didn't get a chance to go to bed until 2 am, and I got up at 645 am...needless to say, it didn't go away. even after taking 4 excedrin migraine pills. it continued until i got home from my brother's outdoor graduation. now it's just a splitting headache, which is better :) just not fun still as we have 40 people upstairs inside/outside the house for my brother's graduation luncheon with other families and stuff. I am not in a social mood, and this is my escape for about 15 minutes. :) it should be over in the next hour, hopefully. 
i was in a conversation with my mom and another mom. they were talking about how they wer ehaving a hard time with their sons graduating today. my mom says "i never have a hard time with the girls, emilie graduated, i didn't cry at all. when i even drove her to provo to move there, i still didn't cry." not sure how to take that *shrugs* oh well, maybe she just feels a closer connection to her boys? 8shrugs* who knows, now probably isn't a good time for me to ponder it too much. 
i miss bryan.

Moderator

SO I was a moderator at a meeting on Thursday, and we had a real time captionist there, along with ASL interpreters, Cued Language Transliterators, and Assistive Listening Devices. No one on the coalition (which i am part of, as i am the moderator) remembered to take minutes of the meeting. SO the real time captionist was nice enough to give us a copy of what she had typed throughout the whole meeting and gave it to me on a floppy disc. The first thought in my mind "now watch, this will screw everything up" but I took it anyway and decided to try and make it work. Well I just remembered I had that disc today and needed to get to it. I put it in the computer, and it says it needs to be formatted. I thought the woman did it on a PC laptop, so I have no idea why it needs to be formatted (that and macs don't have floppy's?) Then I try to eject the disc to try it on another computer, maybe at the library or something, and somehow the metal sliding part got raised in the drive, so now I can't even take it out without ruining the disc.....hrmph. Every time I touch a PC something like this goes wrong, and the problem is not between the keyboard and the chair :P hrmph.

Allergies

So, I did get sunburned, a lot more sunburned than I thought I did. I'm surprised I didn't get shingles yet from too much sun, but it seems my body has taken another route to show the allergies this time. My legs swelled up a bit, and it hurt to walk saturday and yesterday. bry finally suggested to take a cool bath, and i felt a lot better after that. I went to sleep at 1030 last night and woke up at 10 this morning. my knees are swollen again, but the rest of my legs are fine, just the knees. And it no longer feels like i have fire for blood when I walk, which is a good thing. :) I'm going to go swimming with my brother later tonight to get some form of exercise, it's really bugging me that i can't be out weeding today, but oh well, swimming will have to do. 
Seems that my plans for a summer preschool is finally starting to get going. It'll start mid June and end mid August. It's a cueing preschool for deaf and hearing kids. I'm excited, yet nervous, but hey, at least i'll have the experience needed if i should go onto a masters right? :)

Wedding

I have fogotten how much energy weeding requires....we (my sisters, mom and I) did weeding for about....4 1/2 or 5 hours today. We're about half way done (it's not a small flower garden, goes all the way down the driveway, and the front of the house, and we have bits of stuff on the side of the house. The vegetable garden hasn't started growing yet). And mom wants it all done bfore Thursday when we're having *thinks* 4 families plus mine, so 5 families eating a lunch here at the house for my brother's graduation (all the families are his good friend's families). It will be fun, and nice to have this done before my family goes to hawaii. benefts from weeding the garden - it's a work out (it really is!!), getting some sun before going to hawaii so I won't burn as soon as I step off the plane! :), and it's gonna look great all summer long instead of only half the summer. :) I did get sunburned on my shoulders for sure, still waiting to see on my arms to see if they really are burnt or not, i kow my knees are. But most of the burn should be gone by tomorrow if my body goes as it usually does. One would think my burn would take forever to go away since I have a wacky immune system. :) 
As Bry posted in his lj, we got to see the Manti temple yesterday. I have never seen it up close, i have only been to the manti temple for the pageant they have every summer, and the last time I went to that was when I was 12 I think, i'm not sure. I ha dno idea how beautiful it was, and if it weren't so far from family, I would consider having bry and i get married ther einstead of slc, but alas, lts of relatives and duty calls (no comment from you on this part Bryan. :P ). It was also great to have a nice long ride to talk to him and just enjoy each other's company (I just realized Bryan, we barely even had that radio on, wow, i must've been talking quite a bit....). 
Life in general, great. :) I'll be traveling quite a bit in June, so it's gonna be a hard month to feel I have any time for anyone or even myself, but it'll all be worth it. :) Now to go shower and get all this dirt off of me!

Running

So I went to the gym today, and today I decided to run until I dropped. Well I did speed walking then running and then speed walking then a cool down. I lasted 55 minutes, and I went 4.12 miles. I was so proud of myself, I have never run more than 2.5 miles before. And I still feel refreshed, I don't want to die or anything...yet. YAY I'm so proud of myself!!! *dance* The only downer, I have SUCKY tennis shoes so I have a big blister on the bottom of my foot now....time to buy new shoes...especially since I've had these ones for almost 5 years...:D

Frustrating

I really hate when people start to get on my backs when I know I have things due by a certain time. I have been working hard to get things done, the problem is, no one's been calling me back to get it done, a couple of these things have been going on the past two weeks, and yet, 80% of these people have not been getting back to me (and yes, I have been doing follow up e-mails, phone calls and faxes). Drives me nuts. One project, isn't even my job to contact these people, but since the people covering this project are so impatient, they keep telling me no luck, and I need this to be done, so now I'm having to go out and do it myself, and I find that people have only had maybe 3 hours so far to respond before I get a no luck from the other people. *grumble*. And one of the first things that happened this morning...my hearing aid broke. I have to take it in tomorrow to see if it's fixable (when I say fixable I mean, within cost. I know they can fix it, just do I have the money for it...they aren't cheap). So meanwhile I get to hear everything in my left ear, which drives me crazy at times, cause for example what just happened right now. There's a fax machine on my right and my cell phone is on my left. The fax machine did a series of beeps, and I looked at my cell phone and was baffled as to why my cell would beep that way. Took me a few minutes to figure it out. The same thign happens when people try to talk to me. They are on my right, and I turn to my left to see who is talking, then I get confused. It can get kind of annoying at times, but alas, at least I have what I have right? anyway, so I decided to just to get some help to calm down....apple cinnamon chamomile tea and soda crackers. much better.

Good quote

I'm reading a book, and I enjoyed this quote very much. :) 

George Q. Cannon:

"We believe that when a man and woman are united as husband and wife, and they love each other, their hearts and feelings are one, that that love is as enduring as eternity itself, and that when death overtakes them it will neither extinguish nor cool that love, but that it will brighten and kindle it to a purer flame, and that it will endure through eternity; and that if we have offspring they will be with us and our mutual associations will be one of the cheif joys of the heaven to which we are hastening...God has restored the everlasting priesthood, by which ties can be formed,...which shall be as enduring as we ourselves are enduring,...and they and their children will dwell and associate together eternally, and this, as I have said, will constitute one of the cheif joys of heaven; and we look forward to it with delightful anticipations. (Journal of Discourses 14:320-321)"

Good to be LDS ;)

Olds news, don't care

This is how I've been feeling all day long:

*giggle/scream* I'M GETTING MARRIED! */giggle/scream*

:D

Talking to my old boss and an old coworker for an hour about wedding plans (since the coworker is getting married next week, and my old boss loves my family), didn't really discourage the excitement of getting married. :) 

So yes, redundant, but, :D yeah
