new goal

i only have 5 min. to do this, but one of the new goals i have chosen is to be in bed by midnight- i would truthfully rather be in bed earlier, but since i usually get off at 11ish, then midnight it must be---

i have also started a book, inside this book i am filling all of the quotes i love along with some writings i have, perhaps some new poetry of mine---

the end--- i have been reading a really great blog lately, i feel the need to share:

Aspen Grove 2007

Aspen Grove June 16-22 2007!!!


we had a total of 32 of our Mickelson family members at this years reunion.

we each got our own T-shirt, gran of course being the first in the family got a #1 on her shirt, and then down the list... i am # 12 in the family!

Aspen Grove is a family camp filled with a lot of different activities for everyone!


Bad mitten, Shuffleboard, tennis, ping pong, swimming, crafts, fishing, hiking, rope coarses and loads more that i cant think of right now!





This year our family decided to take part in the talent show, we did our many versions of 'Pop-corn popping' [see picture of us on stage]! as a group we all sang popcorn once, then each took part of the verse to complete our 'special versions'. the olson fam, did a 'rap' version, very unique and hillarious! next celeste and i went, i did a poetry reading, celeste accompanied me on her 'bongos'. next aunt lorie and stephanie did their best 'opera' voices and took over the stage with their voices. then christine finished up with her computer programing of popcorn. it was a lot of fun, and turned out real well. if i ever figure out how, i will download the video and post it, im sure its great!










it really was a lot of fun, we took so many great pictures, it was hard to choose which ones to share!!


a few of my favorite activities are: end of program Family Dance, Aspen Follies(all the familys get to compete in silly competitions and games), Frontier Night(getting a balloon, a snow cone, and riding the 'kid train' with aunt lorie and stephanie). and a new edition to this years reunion is... Water Coloring!

a Magic Moment that started this year was: being with the whole family letting gran know our special memories of her.


Aspen Grove is so much fun, i know that we all look forward to it each year!!! and as lame as it sounds, i cant wait till next year!!!!!

55 words - humphrey

"Hello," he says " how are the rutabagas this evening?"

i am shocked... why would Humphrey ask such a thing?
i don't even like rutabagas. I'm not even eating rutabagas. no one is.


i suppose i have to answer him... "umm, a bit salty for my likings"
then i understood his game. he was a hallucination.

55 words - butterfly

after she mentioned that she needed more ice cream,
i ran to the store. i would do anything for her. she
deserved the world. but i cant find the world.
neapolitan will just have to do. i got back from the store.
she was gone. she has left me. that crazy butterfly left me again.

review of the past few days

busy day today---- actually busy week....

i was able to spend a few days with my sweetie in st.George, it was nice to go back, i haven't been back since i moved home to Nephi.

a few highlights:

• visit with Lori & Heidi of Perks! Espresso and Smoothie (former employers and good pals)
• have lunch with Becky at the Pasta Factory
• spending quality time with Bryan
• purchased an Amy Butler pattern i have been wanting for a while
• also found some material to make the bag-- way cute!
• Cracker Barrel with my love
• Becky doing my hair(it is a must when i visit!!!)

i came home to a few suprises, my love had sent me 2 post-cards, AND season 3 of 'i love lucy'!! what a sweetie!!!

about 45 min after i got home, i rushed out to the resturant to help mom and dad with a dinner catering event (nebo air fest) we were doing...

we ended up feeding about 125 or so... it turned out alright!

the next day(today) we catered lunch for the same event, but at a different location... and fed at least 175... lots of good comments! after we were all finished loading everything up, mike and i had about an hour before we had to go into work.... so we went home, and rested up a bit, then back to work we went... so almost a full day of work for the both of us! i know im tired!!!

i guess hoovie and i are having a sleepover tonight, she is in my bed... eh, i dont mind... although, last night.. either i was dreaming, or it really happened... but she was talking in her sleep, and i decided to talk back to her, so i started singing a song(rollie pollie ollie theme song) and she finished singing it to me... eh, like i said, it could have just been a dream....


ok, thats enough for tonight.

keeping me awake

1. my tummy- its hungry
2. my slow computer- if it was faster, i would be done with my stuff sooner
3. music that i now have that i havent heard that i need to hear
4. books i need to finish reading
   
5. being able to save $ on food and housing...but not making as much as i was at my old job
6. no one wanting to take care of me

im going to bed...again

latest update with pics

last sunday night i started feeling ill.. achy body, head-ach coming on... then the sniffles started... i am pretty sure i have finished off 4 tissue boxes... yes 4, the empty boxes are just chillin in my room....im still feeling sick. my voice decided to leave on tuesday night, its doing its best to come back...

a whole week later and i dont feel that much better.

although, on the plus side, i did seem to find more shifts to work... and this wed-friday i will be in st.g-- so thats pretty exciting.


yesterday my mom had her family reunion.. not too much of a show up.. but it was fun, we borrowed our friends blowup/slide things... it turned out alright!


my family with grandma and grandpa bosh... how nice
this is a pic of dad and i going down the slide- what fun...



im ready for bed, although its only 8:30pm, and i did wake up at 1pm, took a 3 hour nap.... so i prob shouldnt be tired, but i hear sleep is good when you feel ill.




Aspen Grove is coming up. the Mickelson's family reunion. its a whole week long. June 16-22nd.
all the mickelson family will be there.


so my lappy is completly full. which is no good for this music lovin' gal.... im going to be looking into another hard drive...

michael has been trying to help me fix my music, it happens that i had double copys of my music, but in the process, i have lost some of my beloved tunes.. no need to worry, i am getting them back as we speak..


lately everything i do is pointless/usless .. in michaels eyes....

EX#1. michael and celeste are making these stuffed animal things, and asked for my help, so i gave some ideas, and michael said they werent what he had in mind at all.

EX#2. my dad was going a radio comercial for an event in town and asked for my help, he wanted me to do all the talkin, but my voice decided not to want to. so i helped my dad with some of his pronouncation. you know, fixing his "mondeys" into "mondays"... and his "Ax" into "Acts" and also some "neboairfez" into "nebo air Fest" ... helping out a lot.. you know.. but michael decided to tell me that it was unnecessary, and it dosent matter how it sounds...



so its kind of annoying/ aggravating... becuase there is nothing that i can do that will be good enough for michael. ever. thats just how he is.



i want a rootbeer float, we have loads of icecream left over from yesterday, but mom wouldnt go get some rootbeer, she said she was too lazy.


i made hoovie and i dinner tonight, yep easy.mac... thats what happens, when mom and dad sit and watch movies while their kids(im still sick mind you) starve to death...


grrr... im going to bed- i cant do anything else on my lappy anyway.
