AoG Day 3

Today, I am grateful for small mercies. For church, I usually pack a couple packs of fruit snacks to tide me over until I get home. I usually have morning meetings and am gone for a long time.

I had to leave early today for a meeting and forgot to grab my snacks. I texted my roommate to bring them with her, but she was sick and not attending church. I was sad.


While sitting in Relief Society, I was digging in my purse for some gum, when what should I find but a pack of My Little Pony fruit snacks. I leaned over to my friend Stacey Bond, and whispered, "Jesus loves me." and proceeded to eat my bounty.


Also, I found a girl who knows Excel pretty well in my Relief Society that came over to help me out with some stuff that I had been stuck on. She seems pretty fun too. New friend!

Despite the long day and the dreary weather we're having, today was a good day. :)

AoG Day 2

Today, I am thankful for cooking blogs that provide wonderful recipes to try such as this.

Oh, and I'm thankful for this cute picture.

Meh..

I've been feeling super whiny this week. Everything irritates me and I find myself making sarcastic comments under my breath in every class. Though funny(everyone laughs), some of them are not as nice as they could be.

My patience has run out. I'm trying not to be this jaded old lady, but that's how I feel. Jaded.

How does one go about unjading themselves? I want to, unjade myself that is. I'm trying to see the world through non-critical eyes, but is harder than I thought it would be. Sometimes I'll be doing really good, then I'll see something and slip back into my old habits. It's a process. My roommate Channing is trying to keep an Attitude of Gratitude journal to change her way of thinking. I think I'll do that too. Maybe I'll use this blog to give thanks.

So each day, I'll try and post at least one thing that I'm grateful for.

Today, I'm grateful that it is Friday. No one will ever know how grateful.


I'm also thankful for nerdy girl things like this that make me smile and scour the interwebs for copies of these movies. A lot of them are available on Netflix Instant Play. Bonus! Enjoy :)

Kablam!

Does anyone remember the show Kablam! ? I used to love this show so much! Blast from the Past!!

Truth

Paperback Writer and Eight Days A Week are some personal favorites...

My Two Loves in One Shirt!

If you've read my blog before, you probably remember reading this post. Well I was perusing Torrid's website as I am want to do and this beauty was listed under new arrivals. I admit my heart stopped for a second. I need this shirt!!

Sammy's

Sammy's is this new legit little diner place in town. They have burgers, fries and some wicked shakes. They have pie and cupcake shakes, where they literally put a cupcake or piece of pie in the blender with some ice cream. It's kind of cool! The ambiance is pretty kicked-back, and low key.

Along with bar stools, they have a bunch of old desks as tables and several old couches for lounging.

They have live music on Friday and Saturday nights, and they're open late. It's quickly becoming one of my new favorite places in Rexburg.

Seriously. It makes Rexburg seem less lame...
