Big changes

So I don't have internet in our new house yet... no looking at emails or at blogs or at facebook. How am I surviving? Me the internet addict..... its not so bad. But now that I'm at my parents with internet here's a new post. As the title suggests I'm going to talk about all the changes in my life, but first a side note. There's this ridiculously large fly in my room, you know the kind that sound like a lawn mower is in your house when its by your ear? Well the only light is my computer screen so he keeps flying by it. At one point he landed on it and in a moment of sheer panic I shut my screen planning to deal with the carnage in a minute. SOMEHOW he magically regenerated from this smashing. I got a fly swatter, then everytime I'd get up, turn on the light and try to kill him, he'd disappear. So finally I whacked and missed a few times, finally hit him and he landed who knows where probably to regenerate again to be the bane of my existence. I hate flys

ANYWAY, the big changes. So in the past few months I have 1. gotten engaged 2. graduated from college 3. rented our first house 4. gotten a steady long term job 5. became an aunt and got a new nephew as of today!!! 6. became an aunt to my new sister and brother in laws daughter and one on the way 7. inherited a whole new awesome family 8. will be going through the temple 9. will be getting married 10. will have to get all my own insurance, holy crap 11. I feel like there's a ton more that I can't remember but seriously thats a lot of big steps all in one! I feel like these should come at me slower, but really its good. I've also changed a lot of activities like I now like 4 wheeling, who would have thought. I got to waterski with a whole bunch of competition skiiers and see how the pros do it, I even went over the wake and around a few buoys. Anyway I think these are 2:30 AM random thoughts... but its kind of crazy how many big things have happened in the last little bit, its like my life went into speed mode and I actually really like it.

Side note: our nieghbors have a really cute little white puppy who runs up to the fence to see me all the time and I wish I had time to play with him. they don't give him much attention, its sad but I like him.
Sidenote 2: the fly hasn't come back :)
Sidenote 3: I now know ridiculous amounts of knowledge about real estate loans that no one should ever know, the sad thing is I haven't even scratched the surface of what I need to know
Sidenote 4: I'm far to tired and rambling to write any more

Wow Whitney! Everything's falling into place for you. I'm so glad! I don't envy all you have to learn for your new job, though. Sounds like homework and studying all over again to me! Haha, good luck! :-)

I enjoyed reading this :) I love you.

Can I have a side note too?? ...sometimes those word verification things are very funny to me. This time it's "fooscac" It doesn't look that great, but just say it and you'll know. I think I'd like to start calling somebody that, but I don't know who. It'll have to be someone we don't like 'cause it doesn't sound very endearing.
