Deep/Vague thoughts (So deep and vague I barely understand what I'm saying)

Have you ever wondered if one small decision changed the entire course of your life? I've been reflecting over this a lot lately. Even little things like if I had said this or done that, maybe one misunderstanding wouldn't have turned into some huge fight that led to relationships falling apart. I also wonder, is it a good thing or would I have been better off if it didn't happen. I'm a huge believer and always will be in things working out in the end, but what if the end would have put me in a more ideal situation if the original misunderstanding hadn't happened in the first place. Anyway, just some of my thoughts tonight. I'm pretty sure no one on the planet Earth will even understand this post I barely know what I'm talking about, but it felt good typing it out. That is all, goodnight.

15 Completely Random Facts

1. Me and Marne are currently sitting in almost the exact same position, with almost matching computer, blogging about pretty much the same thing.

2. I have a strong dislike for cats. I've been attacked by more then one and pretty sure they are the devil's minions. For example one cat in our complex follows me and gets its paw prints all up and down my car and no one else's. I think they sense how much I love dogs.

3. I have a new found love for Psych.

4. I just bought an amazing flat screen TV as well as Apple TV. I'm now enjoying Psych and other such shows in a totally new way.

5. For a long time there was only three reasons I wanted to get married. First, I hate getting into a cold bed so it would be nice if someone warmed it up before I had to get in. Second, so I would never have to get gas. I hate standing out in the cold and seeing my money drain away. And third so I wouldn't have to go to a single's ward anymore. Not that I don't like people in it, I just don't enjoy awkwardness of the single's ward. I'm becoming more open to the idea, but I'm still very scared and have a super hard time trusting anyone from past experiences.

6. I hate that I feel for the last two years of my life I've felt like I've just plateaued. I finished school so fast and during that time it was such a constant go, that even though yes I'm working I haven't accomplished anything where I could physically show something, like my diploma.

7. I'm planning a trip to Jamaica in July and seriously couldn't be more excited. A little nervous yes, it seems any time I travel to a foreign country there's like an earthquake or something...

8. The Salt Lake marathon was this weekend and I'm super bummed I couldn't participate like I was planning. The foot injury prevented that, so hopefully next year.

9. I have a huge crush on Duane Lee from Dog the Bounty Hunter. He's almost to the point of Kyle Korver, almost.

10. I have a new love of the song Unanswered Prayers by Garth Brooks, Google the lyrics.

11. I get super excited when someone starts a conversation with me on Facebook chat or sends me an unexpected text (I suppose I'm easily pleased)

12. For some reason I feel turning 24 in a couple months is like a huge step. I know it's not even a "milestone" birthday, but it just does for whatever reason.

13. I made sugar cookies today that look like Easter eggs.

14. I'm really not a chocolate fan. Once in a great moon I get that craving and if it's there I may eat it, but I don't get the cravings for it like some people. I much prefer the sugar (see 13)

15. I had the most amazing pedicure yesterday, seriously amazing.

Well, that was a lot harder then it should have been.

Firsts

So, this past week my car was in it's first "official" car accident with another car (me hitting the box on the freeway doesn't count) And no it was not my fault, actually I wasn't even in the car. Here is a picture of the damage.

Another first, I can finally put my hair in a ponytail. I'm pretty sure it's been years since this was last accomplished. Anytime in the past it started getting long, I would get sick of it and cut it, but I've finally let it grow out a little. I know it's barely there, but hey its a start.
Well, here's to hoping this is the first winter I don't catch a cold (I can't say get sick because I got the fun stomach virus, but I have yet to catch a cold)

Money

Lately I've been doing soo good with my money (minus that Jazz game...and my tax return helped quite a bit) I've finally been able to pay things off/down and feel I'm in a good position. With that though there's only so many things you can cut before it's too much. I think I've hit that with my wardrobe. I honestly can't remember the last time I bought an article of clothing (I'm choosing not to include shoes with this) I'm even bringing this up because I think I've hit my breaking point, where there's only so many things I can wear in my closet. On top of the fact most of them no longer fit, I think I need a major shopping spree this weekend. I've also been trying to dejunk and sell things I don't need, maybe that will help this new found clothing budget need... if only I liked to go shopping, that would probably help things out a little. If only I allowed myself this little spending spree to get a new iPad...

Two Day Fail

If the last two days of my life could be summarized by a picture this is what I would choose.

Seriously.

Bad two days.

Let me just begin with the cookies. I swear on my life I followed the recipe exactly, yet somehow they turned into pancakes and came out like this. I almost took a nap instead of making them, but decided I wanted a quick treat, I should have stuck with the nap. Next, so in my entire life I can probably count on my fingers how many times I've ever honked at someone. Well tonight was one of them. Seriously people if I'm in a lane and you're in a lane, that does not equal you having the right to just merge into my lane without a blinker or warning at all. I won't even get started with Applebees. I waited there for over a half hour, it was a party of 6 and every single party who came in before or after me was seated before we were. Some groups even had 4 or 5 people, seriously frustrating. Pretty much the rest of it deals with other things I probably shouldn't blog about (haha that makes it sound much worse then it actually is)

Also, I keep missing opportunities to talk with a certain someone. I feel I either keep missing chances or they don't get when I'm putting myself out there. I'm nearly positive they have no idea either, I think we're both pretty clueless. So much so, I haven't had enough of a chance to get to know them to see if I am even interested and see if all of this over analyzing would be for something or not...there are moments when a person doesn't really need a drink they're just trying to start up a conversation.

One thing though and even though it happened today, I still blame yesterdays stuff on it too. I didn't listen to the Spirit today. I was at Costco, in the rain, and was running to my car when I saw this old lady trying to put her groceries in her van. I usually always offer to help and I think I've been turned down every time (not sure why, I don't think I look THAT scary) Anyway, something told me to ask her if she needed help. Well because of the rain and the fact I'm always turned down I ignored it. It kept getting louder and louder, I finally got to my car and mentally said no she's fine and just drove off. I feel awful now. What if she really needed help? Or what if she didn't and it was just a test to see how well I'd follow promptings even if I was having a bad day? Regardless I failed miserably and I feel super bad because of it.

Well, at least I have Monday off to hopefully calm down and relax a little and get over the slump of bad happenings, whether my own doing or the stars just not aligning for me.

Jazz game!

I had the amazing opportunity to go to last weeks Jazz vs Bulls game with Shelley. Since my husband was playing we decided to go all out and get lower bowl seats. To our luck we found a pretty good deal on Row 10, just up from the Jazz bench. Little did we know what a game it would be. Sadly, we lost although Kyle played a good game. But the bigger story of the night was it ended up being Jerry Sloans last game. The next day he resigned. I'm sure knowing that people would have paid triple for the tickets. Whatever the reason, I'm very sad to see him go but he was a great coach and I'll miss seeing him. Of course I got some pictures at the game.

This is our view.

I was able to zoom in to get a picture of my favorite player, even if he's now in a Bulls uniform.

I think this one's my favorite, before the second half they did warm ups on the basket we were closest to. He was literally feet away I think I was drooling a little.

Anyway, it was an awesome night. Now only if the Jazz could get out of this funk they seem to have gotten themselves into...

My weekend

Another week has come and gone. It's funny now that I don't have semesters to break up my year it seems to go by pretty fast and there's very little difference to whether it's February or September except maybe the temperature. I decided to do a post on what did KayCee do this weekend.

Saturday:

7:15-I'm not sure if I'll ever know why but my body always automatically wakes up at this time. And I always have to get out of bed to use the bathroom, brush my teeth and take daily medicine. If it's a work day usually I'll just be up and get ready sometimes I get back in bed. Since today wasn't I got back in bed.

8:45-I never fully fell back to sleep, but it was still nice to relax. I got up and tried out the new Zumba video I bought. Around 9 Sam came out of her room, I'm sure I looked pretty ridiculous but after a minute she tried to.

9:15-After my extremely exhausting, haha, 30 minutes we decided we deserved breakfast, so it was off to BK we went.

9:30-Didn't have the best of experience there, but came home to a meal I didn't even order...

Sadly the rest of the day's time kind of was a blur. I remember I went to Walmart for grocery shopping, back home and cleaned the house, met Lidia up at Spoons and Spice to buy a rolling pin (I've been using a glass to roll my cookies...) went back to Walmart because I forgot three things. I was not happy that place was a zoo. Back home, Sam and I had a late lunch then she went off on her date and I went to a friends house to help her decorate sugar cookies. Came home and made a banana cream pie and got the sugar cookie dough mixed to make them today. And finally went to bed :)

Sunday:

7:15 Again same routine and this time was completely able to fall back asleep

10:00 Woke up and couldn't believe I slept that long then got ready for church

11:00 Went to church, then came home and started preparations for baking the cookies.

I finished those, then went to JJ's house for dinner, came home cleaned some last things up now I'm here. Have you ever tried to type out your day? I forget what times I did what. Anyway, that was my adventurous weekend, what did you do?
