PWS Awareness Month

May is Prader Willi Syndrome Awareness Month! 

As you know, our sweet daughter Clover was diagnosed with Prader Willi Syndrome shortly after she was born.  At that time, we experienced a lot of different emotions...devastation, fear, frustration, anger, sadness, and the list goes on.  We felt alone.  We felt like there was no way anyone could understand what we were going through....what Clover was going through.  We worried about her future and all the things she may never be able to do.  

Things are so very different now. 

Clover is 8 months old and amazes us every single day.  She brings so much joy into our lives.  She is learning new things every day, she loves her brother, she is happy, she is silly and always has us laughing, she is smart, she is strong and she inspires me everyday to be a better person.

We have met other PWS families who have become such a wonderful support system for us.  I can't help but feel instantly connected with these families.  We have a bond that is very special and I am so very thankful for these people in my life.

Since becoming a mother, my life has a new purpose...and that is to do all I can to help Clover and Henry's lives be the best they can be.  Raising awareness for Prader Willi Syndrome is just one thing I can do to make a difference for Clover, our family and others with PWS.

some thoughts here and there...

I decided it was time to dust off the ol' blog and get er' up and going again...

I rather enjoy blogging, so I'm not sure what all the slacking has been about.  Oh well, here we go...

The weather outside has been absolutely wonderful.  I've actually been able to step outside without my winter coat and snow boots on and it has been oh so lovely.  It makes me long for a nice warm spring.

Note to self:  Next time, don't get a puppy in the middle of winter.  It makes for a very difficult time in house training.  Millie hates the cold and would rather stay inside....as would any reasonable person/animal.  This warm weather has helped tremendously.

Last weekend we took Millie to play with some other animals at my friend's house...and by other animals I mean other puppies, big dogs, some goats, a couple cats and some chickens.  She liked everything but the chickens.

The other day I brought Millie to work with me to meet some cute 4-H kids.  One of the kids was trying to tell Millie to "sit" and "shake" and she accidentally told the puppy to "shit."  It was pretty funny and we all had a good laugh.  Why is it funny when kids swear?  Luckily Millie did not obey this time.

Yesterday was the day that I turned a year older.  I feel like life keeps passing me by at record speed.  It scares me.  I don't want to end up 40 with still no kids.

Is anyone else excited to see The Hunger Games?  I'msoexcitedIcan'twait!  I doubt it will come to Thermopolis (at least not opening night), so a road trip may be in order.

When reading through my past posts about Millie, it sorta sounds like having a puppy has been the easiest thing ever and that Millie is perfect.   No, no, no....tis not so.  I've failed to mention all the pee/poo incidents that have occurred inside, the biting, the stubbornness, the licks, the getting into everything, the selective hearing, and her dreadful gas that has almost caused me to pass out a couple of times.  She's cute and she cuddly, but oh she can be naughty too.  Don't let those puppy dog eyes fool ya.

I am thoroughly enjoying my 366 Photos Project.  It is one goal that I have actually followed through with.  If you want to check out my daily pics, you can find them HERE.

I am so happy it is Friday!  The warm weekend weather forecast has got me all sorts of excited!!

Happy Weekend Everyone!

confessions

This was my backyard before spending the last 3 Saturdays pulling weeds.  No joke.

I am in love with Emma Stone.

Oh how I long for the day when we add a little Cheney babe to the mix.

I would like to flip houses for a living.

I went to see this movie last week with the expectation that it was some cute comedy, similar to 17 Again.  Wrong!  It was totally raunchy and totally R rated.  I seriously had no idea.  It was still pretty funny though....in a raunchy, R rated sort of way.

I watched every episode of Bachelor Pad and actually really liked Michelle.

Just when I think I am getting past my fear of driving I have a nightmare of someone crashing into me.  Awesome!

I'm considering signing up for Showtime just so I can watch the new season of Dexter.  Love that show!

I bought this gem at a garage sale for a whopping 5 bucks.  Isn't it darling?  I love it.

I think I am going to start using the phrase "bat shit crazy" more often.  It's simply too good a phrase not to use.

Our fence is totally falling over into our neighbor's yard and I think they might hate us because of it.  That and our yard.....which I totally don't blame them for.

I think I would like to skinny dip sometime before I die.  Doesn't it just seem liberating?

I am so loving this song lately.  Driving around with the hubs, windows down, this song blasting from the radio....it's a little piece of heaven.  And honestly, up until a couple of months ago, I thought he was singing, "after the poison, summer is gone."

Happy Wednesday!

Sept. 11

There are those events in our lives that we remember so clearly....like we know exactly what we were doing that very day.  September 11, 2001 is like that for me. 

I woke up and was getting for school, as usual.  Except that instead of watching the news like I did every single morning while getting ready, I decided to listen to a CD.  Then on my drive to school (about a 45 minute commute to Salt Lake Community College), I listened to my CD instead of listening to the radio like I usually did. 

I arrived early to school so I headed to the "commons."  The common area was packed with students...usually that early in the morning there would only be a handful of people in there... so I knew something was going on.  Everyone was jumbled together in front of the big screen TV.  I pushed through the crowd and tried to make my way to the TV.  Right then the second plane hit the tower.

I was so confused, but quickly learned what was going on.  I just felt numb inside.

All of my classes were canceled.  On my way to my car, I ran into a friend who had recently served in the army.  I remember him being so upset.  I was still trying to wrap my head around everything that was going on, but visiting with him made it all a little more real.

I was glued to the TV for days.  I wanted to know everything that was happening...who was behind the attacks, how many survivors were being pulled from the rubble,  what was next??  

I had never before loved this country so much.

I also felt such a great love for the heroes of that day....the firefighters, policemen, medical personnel and all the ordinary people who did extraordinary things to help others....including all those on flight 93. 

My heart was heavy and went out to everyone who lost loved ones and who was affected by that terrible attack.

I can't imagine how frightening in must have been for those close to the crash....those in the towers...those in the planes....those on the phones with their loved ones before the crash.  I was frightened and sad and shaken up and I was thousands of miles away.  

10 years have since passed.  I still love this country and my heart still goes out to the victims of that day. 

The past few days I have been watching footage of that day, listening to audio, and watching documentaries.  Every time my throat gets tight, my chest gets heavy and my eyes get teary.  It was definitely a day I will always remember. 

I am so thankful for the servicemen who serve and protect our country.  I am thankful for our freedoms and I truly am proud to be an American.   

random post friday

Today is Friday and that makes me happy.  I have been waiting for today all week.  I love weekends because I can leave my work at the office and spend a couple of joyous days with the husband.

In January I was hired to be the 4-H Educator in Thermopolis.  4-H is awesome!  If your kids are not already in 4-H, then by golly sign them up!  What is 4-H, you ask?  It's only the largest out-of-school educational program for kids.  It teaches kids all sorts of cool things that will help them throughout their lives.  So, go sign them up...and while you're at it, sign yourself up to be a 4-H volunteer! 

We are headed to Montana tomorrow to see our friend get married.  I love seeing or hearing about people getting married.  Such an exciting time in life.

My blog header has changed for the 4th time this week.  Every once in awhile I get a hankering for a change, but then never really like it and revert back to the trusty ol' scooter girl header.

Since canceling our cable, we have watched about a million-and-one movies.  I asked Curtis if I could post a list of all the movies we have watched in the last week and he said, "no, that's embarrassing."  Not because the movies themselves were embarrassing (at least not all of them), but rather the sheer volume of movies being watched is embarrassing.

A couple weekends ago we drove all the way to Sidney, Nebraska to pick up a scooter.  It's an awesome orange vintage vespa.  Since we have been married, we have probably made over a hundred trips to either sell or buy a scooter.  My husband is awesome.

Many of my friends are pregnant right now, leaving me feeling totally excited for them (truly) but also totally jealous.  Infertility just plain sucks.  Oh well, such is life.

After having our main bathroom torn apart for six months, it is finally finished and just needing a fresh coat of paint.  Finally I don't have to venture down the stairs in the middle of the night to use the bathroom.  By the time I turned on the hall light, then the stairs light, then the family room light, then the laundry room light and finally the bathroom light, I was wide awake and struggled to fall back to sleep.

In case you were wondering (and I'm sure you are), the book I chose for bookclub is Naked by David Sedaris.  So far I love it and have had several laugh-out-loud moments.

I had a dream last night that the girls in my bookclub told me they hated the book I chose and wanted me to pick a different one.  Wouldn't it be funny if they really do hate it?

I have to get to go to 4-H camp this summer.  The camp-ground is right in the middle of bear country...like bears wandering around the middle of camp.  I now have recurring nightmares about getting attacked by a grizzly bear. 

Lastly, check out this video to see just how totally cool Curtis was in high school....(video posted by Justin, who is also very cool, as evidenced by this video).



Have a great weekend friends!!

Two things....

#1.  We canceled our cable.  *gasp!!*  You know how much I love TV, right?  Like, I love it a lot.  A lot.  But I actually find myself excited about getting rid of it.  I do not need to let TV control my life.  This does not mean that I won't be taking full advantage of Hulu and Netflix...nosireebob.




#2.  It is my turn to pick the book for book club.  Any suggestions?  Any must reads?  

I've read the following books these past few months...

Bridget Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding
The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein
The New York Regional Mormon Singles Halloween Dance by Elna Baker
Gap Creek by Robert Morgan
Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech
Freakonomics  (half way through) by Steven Levitt & Stephen Dubner

I thoroughly enjoyed each of these books, however, I want to pick something new for bookclub...so...let me hear it...what are your suggestions?

photoshop fun

So...I'm in a photoshop class here in town.  In true Jen fashion, I haven't made any friends in the class.  So each week I go, I sit by myself, during breaks I sit there alone or casually walk out and wander the halls, then at 9:00 sharp, I head to my car solo and drive home.

I think the people in my class think I'm weird.  And snobbish.  I will admit, weird, yes, very much so.  But snobbish...no.  I can be awfully quiet and shy and I guess it can come off as being a snob.

Oh well.  What's a girl to do?

So....for my class we have to do homework assignments and post them to a facebook group.  Then we have to comment on each other's photos.  Each week I try to do something fun and creative, but I never get a reaction out of anyone in my class.  Often times during class, the teacher or other students will talk about the photos posted on facebook that they liked most.  None of my pictures have ever come up in conversation.

So, this week I really put myself out there and posted this picture:

And guess what? 

I got nothin'. 


Am I the only one who thinks this picture is funny?  I guess it wouldn't be the first time that I was the only person laughing at my own joke.

"I hear the ticking of the clock . . ."

In a moment of weakness, I purchased Glee: The Music Volume 1 from iTunes.  I may or may not have also purchased Volume 2.

Don't judge.

Anyway, this is one of my faves!  I've always been a Heart fan, so this song really hit the spot.  And that Kristin Chenoweth...love her!



.

just wondering . . .

Who of you thought it was called bolley-ball when you were younger....as opposed to volleyball?

I did.  I remember learning the correct name of the sport and thinking it was the dumbest name ever.  It made absolutely no sense to me.



I also remember learning that Meryl Street was indeed Meryl Streep.  Streep?  Really?  That was weird too.

thinking back . . .

Four years ago today Curtis and I were in a terrible car accident.

You've heard the details before, I know.  But I can't help but reflect back on that day.

A car came into our lane and we collided head on at about 60mph.

I had never experienced such pain in all my life (and hope I never do again).  I felt like I was dropped from a tall building with only cement to break my fall.  I was in pain from my head to my toes.

We spent a week in the hospital with injuries that included broken ribs, a broken collarbone, a collapsed lung, bleeding kidneys, cracked vertebraes, broken tailbones, and swollen, black and blue feet....and not to mention poor Curtis had a head full of gouges and glass from hitting the windshield.

That first night in the hospital, I couldn't sleep.  Every time I closed my eyes, I saw a car crashing into me.

I had stressful dreams from there-on-out.  For about 3 years.

When looking back at our accident, a lot of memories flood my mind.  Memories of the ambulance ride to the hospital, memories of the emergency room...doctors coming in and out...nurses never leaving my side...worrying about Curtis...getting a CT scan, the daily chest x-rays...the liquid diet...using the nurse call button, etc.  There was so much going on.

The one thing that stands out to me though was the love and support that was shown to us during this time.  It was overwhelming.  It began immediately following the collision.  Passersby came to our aid right away.  They called 911.  They put blankets on us.  Sat with us.  Comforted us.  Told us we were going to be okay.  One guy who was on scene even contacted us weeks later to see how we were doing.

We had just moved to a new state only six months prior....so...we didn't know very many people from our new town...but we never once felt alone.  So many people reached out.  People from our community who we hardly knew called us at the hospital to check in on us and to let us know they were praying for us.  People came to visit us (even though the hospital was an hour and a half from town).  People sent emails daily.  Our friends from Utah called and sent messages of love and support.

When we got home, the love and support didn't stop.  People brought us food.  People came and sat by my bedside and cared for me while Curtis was at school.  People sent us money to help with the bills.  My boss donated her own 2 weeks worth of paid vacation time to me.  People sent letters, people prayed for us, our families braved the Wyoming cold weather to come and care for us.

I will never ever forget the kindness people showed to us.  It changed my life.


I think about our car accident a lot.

I have my daily reminders with my constant back pain, my two bulging ribs and my bouts of anxiety when driving.  But, I also have a greater appreciation for life and what is really important.

Today I am thankful to be alive.  I am thankful my sweetie pie is alive with me.  I am thankful for the wonderful people who continue to touch my life everyday with their kindness.

This world is full of really good people...and for that, I am grateful.

honestly . . .

The book To Kill a Mockingbird changed my life.  I'm going to read it every year.

I am lost on Sunday evenings without Dexter.

Country music rocks my world.

I find it amusing when women post pictures of themselves in their bikinis on their blog.  It's sorta like, "hey everyone, look how hot I look in this bikini."

You will never see a picture of me wearing a bikini on this blog...or anywhere else for that matter.  So...rest assured.

When I was young, I was bullied at school.  One day during recess I was kicked in the face and broke my nose.

As much as I want to have kids, I am terrified about it too.

I'm sucked into yet another season of The Bachelor

I'm feeling like I don't fit in with anyone here in this town.  And it sucks.

I don't like edited movies.

I love olives on my pizza.



I find this video clip so darn funny....lets face it...we all have our secrets, don't we.


And I agree, nature can be cruel.

headline reads: Thermopolis girl's nightmare comes true

Today I had a job interview. 

I've been worrying about this interview for 3 months now.  That is a long time.  My nerves slowly built and built and built and today they exploded.  It was quite embarrassing.  There I sat in a room full of people...my mind went blank resulting in rambling nonsense flowing out my mouth.  To be honest, I'm not even sure what I said.  I doubt much of it made sense anyway.

Last night I had a recurring dream.  Want to hear about it?  It's a real doozie.

In my dream, I was using the bathroom at my grandparent's house.  But their bathroom happened to be in the front yard.  And it didn't have any walls.  Actually, all it had was a toilet.  So, there I sat on the toilet.  The bad thing about it was that the neighbors were having a party.  A party in their front yard.  So, there I sat totally embarrassed trying to figure out how I was going to get out the situation I found myself in.  I was getting ready to, um, finish, and right at that moment, a big Anastasia parade float parked right in front of my grandparent's house...attracting all the neighbors.  It was awful.  Then I woke up.

I get this dream when I am dreading something that is about to take place.  I have been so incredibly worried about making a fool out of myself in my interview.

Well...at least I succeeded at something.

What a day.

pondering the things I am most thankful for . . .

my dear husband - I am so thankful everyday that he is in my life.

my family - as I get older, I realize just how important family is.  We all have our battles and our differences, but where would we be without each other?  I love the family I was born into and I love the family I married into.  I'm a lucky girl to be surrounded by so much love.

good friends - as I get older, I also realize how important it is to have good friends in life.  With us moving so much the last few years, it's definitely been an adjustment keeping in touch with old friends and trying our darndest to make new ones.  If anything, it has only helped me love my dear friends all the more.

food to eat - I am so so thankful that I never have to go hungry.

a warm place to live - I am so so thankful that I have a warm house to live in and a soft bed to sleep in each night.

our jobs - this past year has been a whirlwind for us as far as our jobs go...but oh what a blessing it is to be employed.

music - I am so thankful for good music.  Music helps me get through the day...it makes me think, it makes me dance, it makes me sing, and most of all, it makes me happy.

I am thankful that in just a couple of days I will be sitting around a dinner table with those I love most.  'Tis the season, and I tell ya what...I can't wait!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

extra bedroom

I need your help.

We have an extra bedroom on our main floor that I am not sure how to use. When I was working from home, it made a great office. Our computer desk is still in the room and so is our bookcase, so, we still refer to that room as "the office," but we never ever use it. It's sort of becoming a storage room now where we put all of our junk. I don't want it to become that. We already have a storage/junk room in the basement.

So...what should we use the room for?

We don't have kids so we don't need a play room.

Our guest bedroom is in the basement, so we don't need another one of those.

My craft/sewing room is also in the basement.

Perhaps we should ditch our laptops and get a desktop computer, so then we are forced to use that room as an office/computer room?

We could put a futon in there and have it be our relaxation/reading room?

Make it an extra TV room so when Curtis is watching Cops (or Swamp People), I can watch something else upstairs?

Perhaps we could just hurry up this baby making thing and turn it into a nursery? I'm kidding about that one, so don't suggest that. Well...sorta kidding. You know what I mean.


I really just don't know.

Any suggestions?

Surely there are those times when you think, "I wish we had just one more room." What do you want that extra room for?

time warp

The other night I was thinking about Curtis and my anniversary that is coming up in December.  I honestly couldn't remember what anniversary this one would be.  Is this our 7th?  No way, couldn't be...is it our 6th??  I really, not even kidding, wasn't completely sure.

Turns out this will be our 8th.  I did the math.  We were married in 2002, this is 2010...yep, that's 8.  I know, crazy, huh.  I can't believe it either.

It feels like just yesterday.  Ok, that is an exaggeration.  It feels like just a few years ago that I married my lover boy...my beefcake....my ...never mind.

My point is...I can't believe it!  Where has the time gone??  I'm worried I'm going to wake up tomorrow to discover I've been living in a nursing home for the past 4 years. 

Somebody, make it stop!!



 

the good and the bad of a small town

I have a love-hate relationship with this town....Thermopolis...the place I have called home for one year and 3 months now.

∙ I love how small it is.

∙ I hate how small it is.

∙ I love that there is no traffic.

∙ I love that I can get to my work from home in 5 minutes or less.

∙ I hate that the closest place to do any kind of shopping is 1 hour away.  And that's if you want to shop at Walmart.  If you want to shop anywhere else, like say, Target or Home Depot, then you have to drive at least 2 hours to get there.

∙ I hate that there is no good places to eat...not even Wendys.

∙ I love how nice people are here.

∙ I love that there is no dress code in this town...I'm never ever embarrassed to go out in whatever I may be wearing...dirty t-shirt, no make-up, pj's, whatever, nobody cares and I seem to fit in just fine with everyone else.

∙ I love how beautiful it is here.

∙ I hate that we don't have more friends.

∙ I love that we now have a Red Box (finally).

∙ I hate that we live so far away from our family, like, really bad hate it.

Last thing . . . I don't hate this or love it, but find it rather amusing.  Last Saturday, one of Curtis' clients came to our house in a panic wanting advice from her trusty lawyer.  We are not listed in the phonebook, but in a town like this, everyone just sorta knows where everyone else lives.  Joys of a small town. 

You win some you lose some, I suppose. 


Happy Friday!


[ Report: I went and saw Easy A and thoroughly enjoyed it.  I thought is was both cute and funny.  And I loved the take on the Scarlet Letter. ]  

my thoughts on a Friday morning . . .

Every now and then I go through this funk where everything seems just a bit more difficult....like getting out of bed in the morning...doing the dishes...making dinner...doing the laundry...going to work...blogging...doing anything really.

You know what would be awesome?  My own eat, pray, love journey.  Oh how I would love to take a year off and travel the world with Curtis.  I want to leave everything behind and just go.  Travel.  Discover.  Do nothing.  Do everything.  And of course, lots of eating, praying and loving.  Sigh....I can at least dream.  

I think tonight I will go to bed at 8:00.  If I can even make it that long.  I'm so exhausted for some reason.

Did you know that my dentist in Billings, Montana, the one who did my bone graft surgery and implant, was arrested for being part of a cocaine drug ring in Montana?  Yep, he sure did.

We are remodeling our upstairs bathroom.  When we pulled out the tub, we found an old empty beer bottle behind it.  It actually explains a lot about why that bathroom was so crappy in the first place.

The movie, Easy A, is now playing at the Ritz.  I want to see it.  I'm thinking Curtis will take me to see it...you know, like a date...a real date this time.  :-)  He really is a good, good man.

I never told you about Curtis' trial he had a few weeks ago.  It was his first jury trial...and he did it all by his lonesome...no co-council.  The other side said (out loud mind you) that it was a "slam-dunk case" for them.  Well, at the end of the day, the jury came back from deliberation and found Curtis' client not guilty on ALL 3 charges!  It was a very happy moment.  Curtis' client was so happy he started crying and gave Curtis a hug.  I was so so proud of Curtis!  He so deserved that happy exciting moment!

I can't figure out how to motivate myself to exercise.  I want to do it and I think about it a lot, but I never ever actually do it.  What is my problem?  Our treadmill is so dusty.  Maybe I just need some encouragement??

I hate student loans more than anything.  Ok, not more than anything, but I hate them a lot!!  Anyone out there want to help pay them off?  You could write it off on your taxes as a large donation.  Anyone?

You know what was really, really awesome?  The miner's rescue in Chile.  Wow.  I was just so touched and amazed and inspired and all sorts of other things over their rescue.  I wish I could give each of those miners a million bucks so they would never have to work again.

Lastly, Modern Family is the best show on TV.



Happy Friday.

current obsessions

First of all, I can't believe it's October.  Where did September go?  It's like I went to bed last night excited that it was September 1st and woke up today to discover it's October 1st.  Weird.

Now, on to business . . .

My current obsessions include . . .

TV.  

Fall TV is the best!!  

The Hunger Games Series

I know I'm behind on this trend...but oh boy...love these books!  I'm almost done with Catching Fire and then on to Mockingjay.  All I want to do is read!  Now, I've heard good and bad about the last book...please don't try to sway me either way...we can talk about it once I'm finished reading it. :-)

Miranda Lambert

Have you listened to her Revolution album?  Oh my, it's a goodie!  I love every song on the CD.

One of my favorite songs on the album is
Heart Like Mine...

"Even though I hate to admit it

Sometimes I smoke cigarettes

Christian folks say I should quit it

I just smile and say 'God bless.'

'Cause I heard Jesus, He drank wine

I bet we'd get along just fine

He could calm a storm and heal the blind

And I bet He'd understand a heart like mine."

[no, I don't smoke cigarettes but that is besides the point.  Love this song.  Love Miranda Lambert.]

Sun Dried Tomato Vinaigrette

 This stuff is yummy.  Gives a bland ol' piece of lettuce some zing!

My New Electric Heater

I wish our home had a fireplace.  But, it doesn't...so no sense in whining about it.  I did the next best thing (and cheapest thing) I could think of....bought an electric heater that looks like a fireplace.  Maybe it's tacky, sure, but I like it.  Makes the living room nice and cozy for the fall and winter seasons.  (And, you hardly notice the big bulky black cord!) :-)

Fall

I love fall.  Doesn't fall just scream cozy?!?  And you know how I love all things cozy.  I love the colors, the smells, the food, the weather, the fashion, the decor, I love it all.  I'm hoping to soak it all in and enjoy it as much as I can...because I will probably wake up tomorrow to discover it's the middle of December.

That is all.

Happy October!
