I have decided that this blog will be for family updates and Kristi updates. I am dedicated and devoted to my husband...and my life will reflect that.
June 23, 2008 The Region contest went well and the plan is for hubby to go to Canada. Meanwhile...everything else is up in the air. I have been trying to learn more about the LDS religion...Ive had missionaries here to talk, and been researching online. Im feeling very empty inside -- alone. But I haven't found anything at all appealing about the LDS, with the exception of the "circle" Id be in. Its not worth it to me to sacrifice what I believe, just to be in the "Circle".
I am now selling DIAPER CAKES....I am trying to build a website www.krazybunchcakes.com Here are some samples If u or someone u know would like one, please email me :)
May 27, 2008 Rent is due...and I have no idea how we are going to pay it. I'm frustrated, and wondering what road God is taking us down....I trust things will be okay. I love and will stay devoted to my husband HEY guess what.....we just had missionaries show up at our door! That's the first time since we've lived here---so I invited them back tmr to talk... :) It can't hurt to talk I still love K2K...Its pretty awesome
May 14, 2008 I had my 3rd work day at Kid to Kid...LOVE IT....Its amazing, though, how much I've forgotten. I'll get it...but dang it, I'm feeling pretty dumb. I got some cute clothes for 3 of the kids...if I do a little at a time, I should make a small profit...LOL On a side note....Hubby is still "unemployed"...and we are getting by...Praise God! May 6, 2008 I had my surgery on April 25th, and it went really well. The screw is placed and I (hopefully) am on my way to healing! I have my foot wrapped in a ace bandage and wear the boot when I have to be out and about. I am so completely frustrated with life and having to deal with this darn foot. People around me are like "Just stay down...make your family pitch in and take over". HA yeah right! Now they do help....but TAKE OVER?!!? Not gonna happen! And part of me feels guilty when I ask them to do something for me. This last weekend--I was very proud of hubby....he actually did a lot for me. Laundry, dishes, he even cleaned up the office upstairs. This really impressed me...he got to see what I have to do every single day. But....now....it's back to 'regular life' and things are piling up again....so, what do I do? I don't stay down...I get up and take care of things (laundry, dishes etc) It drives me crazy having things in chaos...piles of laundry, dirty dishes....ugghhhh I feel like a fat, lazy, no-good pathetic loser----I did this to my self...I'm draining this family---running up medical bills, frustrating everyone. I DID THIS! Now - not only am I not contributing to the family, as a wife SHOULD...I'm actually costing us money! If Rich isn't in the office "working"...he's down trying to get caught up on everything I AM falling behind on!
On another note...over the weekend, of the 26th of April...I went into the kid to kid, to buy Riley some shoes....I saw the NOW HIRING sign that has been up since we moved to Provo. So- I had hubby do a resume' for me, and I turned it in on the Tuesday following....I had an immediate interview, and was hired! I'll be working nights (4-8pm) so basically around 15-20 hrs. I'm excited about this! I loved working at Kid to Kid...and the deals I got! *wow* I will start in 2 wks...after I get the clear from my foot Dr. Yippie
April 22, 2008 (I'm Screwed) I am literally screwed. Those who know me, know that I have been dealing with a broken foot. This happened when on February 14th, I was cleaning in my kitchen, and took a big stumble off a step ladder, when a BIG microwave came crashing down on me. This cracked my 5th metatarsal bone in my left foot. The Emergency room did not see this break...but SPORTS MEDICINE did. I was in a boot for a month, went back for more Xrays, then put in a cast for 2 wks. YEAH YEAH --those who know me too, know that I cut off my own cast. Well...it got wet, and annoyed the crud outta me. It came off really easily. SO then I made another appnt with the foot DR....in which xrays showed the break still very much there--so back in the boot I went. I had another appnt today and the xrays showed no healing at all. My Dr suggested screw surgery...I go in Friday to have this done YUKKKK!! For a clear view of what I will endure go here : foot surgery I will need to be "down" for 3 wks after surgery...and on crutches. This darn foot injury has been quite a strain on our family. And this surgery will be tough. I'm praying it will get me back to normal.
April 19, 2008 Ok, so I am beginning a new BLOG...After writing the other, I found that when you post your personal thoughts on a web site...the whole free world gets to see your most intimate details. DUH on me. I was just thinking, after reading the whole thing, that I have shed a pretty dull light on my husband. I want people to know right now...that I will stand by my husband through EVERYTHING. I mean, isn't this why we take vows and stand before God? My whole family is against my marriage, and has tried talking me into divorce...heck that's all they know. They take me aside every chance they get, to remind me of what they think of my hubby. It's really sad, when the people in your life who should be encouraging and uplifting-tear you down. These people made me question the very core of who I am...They almost had me convinced that I had made a mistake. Well...little do they know about true devotion. I wonder how many times they have had someone tell them to give up on their dreams. I wonder how many dreams they have smashed. I'm not going to listen to all the negativity anymore—I've had it with those people who choose not not believe in ones dreams. I mean without dreams...it would be a very dark existence. I want to say right here and now that true love and support can see you through the darkest of times...And I will NOT give up. Posting negativity, does nothing but reap negativity.
