Can I have some?

welcome to my blog.

a place to post. a place to eat oreos. a place to vent. a place to heal.

i started this blog so i could use a different outlet besides munching on fattening oreos. as if that has done any good... *mind wanders to oreo package in the house...*

then i realized that oreos can be semi symbolic. if you are are that crazy about oreos that is. which... i am.

eating oreos is therapeutic for me. when i am struggling or when i need a pick me up. they have chocolate. and sugar. both of which help lift my mood. not to mention that i eat them soaked with milk, which is my miracle drink.

i post my posts to not only get stuff out. there may be people who read my blog who have been in the same kind of situations as i have. i hope reading them and knowing that others have gone through things like i have, will be to you what eating oreos does to me.


and yes. i didn't capitalize anything in here. i just felt like it. deal with it.


munch up.

Good news! Good news!!

Amazingly uplifted right now, I just have to post!

Today we went to our soon to be new ward to meet and visit with people. Get to know them a little before we actually moved. SO glad I did. On our way to go to the church, we drove past our almost house. They had to repaint the shudders and other uh... trims because the paint was pealing and with the oldness of the house, lead paint was an issue. They asked what color we would want (nice enough already) and as we were wanting the front room a dark redish kind of color (as well as the kitchen) we decided to ask for dark red. Not like a maroon. Maroon is more purpley. Anyway, so we drove by the house... it looks AMAZING! I totally love it.

Second good news... I was kind of nervous to walk into the chapel as well, we don't expect a lot of move ins and move outs even though we are in a college town because this ward is surrounded by more houses than apartments. So we would certainly stand out. Anyway, so we were a little late, made our way and soon after I sat down, I caught someone's eye across the chapel. One of my best friends EVER! I was totally shocked to see her there as I hadn't heard that she and her hubby had ever moved. Turns out they did, and they live in the small apartment complex RIGHT NEXT TO OUR NEW HOUSE! I'm like... ecstatic about this! So amazingly awesome!

I can't stop smiling when I think about it again.
