Hullo...

So this is the excuse I'm going to use for my absence even though it doesn't hold much water. (That's a saying, right? I dunno... I'm a little rusty on my idioms probably because I make up so many and I forget which are real...) Our internet has been on the fritz! I've had to reset the blasted router at least ten times in the past week. It's ridiculous. Anyway, I was going to blog about how much I hate texting, and I may still do that in a later post, but for this post I will just update you on a few things in my life. (Not that many of you care, but it's my blog so if you don't like it then go eat your lunch somewhere else! (fake/made up idiom))

Updates:

Elder Humes has been out for over seven months! Amazing right? Also, he wrote me off about a month ago. He told me that we shouldn't write anymore. I was sad. The next day I got another letter that said he didn't know if that was the right thing. Finally we decided that we're still occasionally writing, but just as good friends. So I've taken down my mission calender and I've stopped much of my correspondence with the other Missionary Girls, and I've felt really good about it. It's a hard change, but it's the right change. This mission isn't for me, or ever for Kendall. It's for God and His gospel.

I got a promotion at work! I'm now a student lead at the Creamery. I tell people what to do and I get paid more money for it. Woo!

Christmas was fun. I stayed at my parents' house over the break, good times. Christmas Eve Jessica, Kevin and my friend Michael came over and we had tasty food, sang carols, and played tetris and pool. Jess and Kev stayed the night and Christmas morning was filled with gaiety and frivolity. That evening we went to the grandparents' homes and ate tamales and played with false violins. Good times. New Years Eve Jess and Kev came back over and so did Michael, Jen's friend James, and our family friend Tanu. We had a delicious meat fondue dinner, played lots of games, and has chocolate fondue for dessert. And when the clock struck twelve we ran around outside like hooligans making all sorts of obnoxious noise. Good times.

Well, with the end of the holidays came school and work. My new schedule is awesome! I have classes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday then work Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. It's so perfect. I get so much done on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. My new classes are pretty cool too. I'm taking Doctrine and Covenants, Intro to Programming, Biology, New Testament, Basic Guitar Skills, and Advanced Social Dance! Woo!

Also, I've resurrected Brazilian Ju Jitsu in my life, and I love it. I have bruised and sore legs, and scraped up elbows, but it's so great.

People, life is good. Yup. Peace.
