Sometimes....

I feel like I am only going back to school because of my love of school/office supply stores...

Kinda Geeky...

I ordered this yesterday...it's a required book for my American Heritage class. I really wanted this edition, but the cheapest place I could find it was SeagullBook.com and they were out of stock. So I put my name on the waiting list (thinking it would be awhile) and I went ahead and ordered the regular version for $3.75 (I <3 Amazon.com/Amazon Prime).

Soon after I received my copy I was at Deseret Book and looked around to see if they had the edition I originally wanted. I had never seen it in real life and I was surprised to see it was GIGANTIC. Probably something I wouldn't bring with me anywhere. Rough dimensions are 13" by 10"!!! Needless to say, I was glad I ordered the other one for my class. But it was amazing! The pictures are beautiful and in it are tons of removable letters, etc. made to look like originals. And I wanted it. Not for school. Just for me.

So, yesterday I got an e-mail from Seagull Book saying that they had 60 copies available! I looked online and it was for sure in stock. List price: $65.00. Seagull Price: $17.76 (seriously, Seagull Book you are humorous).

So, I bought it. And it will be here tomorrow! My dad got one too. And my Aunt Candi. You should too before they run out.

A little giddy...

This better be freaking amazing. At least they picked a good actress to play Katniss. Teeny boppers and Kristin Stewart/Robert Pattinson ruined the Twilight series for me (not just me according to the quantities I see of the books at DI and Savers).

I may just be crazy...

I just signed up for another class for this Fall....I got my Pell Grant acceptance papers and I wanted to be able to receive my full grant. Since you have to be enrolled full time (at least 12 cr) to get the full grant, I took the plunge and signed up for one more class.

I'll probably be kicking myself in the Fall. But there are plenty of moms that go to school full time, right? And some of them even work full time. I guess at least I don't have to worry about that.

Hereby Called.....

My little brother got his mission call yesterday!!! He will be serving in the Trujillo, Peru Mission and will report to the MTC on August 3rd!

My recent obsession

I got this....




on Amazon.com a few weeks ago, about the time when the new Star Wars Lego game came out so the other Lego games were on sale, I only paid $10.99 for it!! Free shipping and no tax are my favorite parts about Amazon.com.

Blog Neglect

So, I have obviously been suffering from a huge case of Blog Neglect. I wouldnt be suprised if I no longer have anyone that checks it.

For the past 2 years I have had the internet only on my cell phone, and it was such a hassle trying to type a whole post on my phone, etc.

I recently got a new phone, again, this time an EVO 4g, and Sprint has this cool add on called Sprint Hotspot. It was cheaper than a regualr internet provider, and to me, I can't tell the difference. As long as it's turned on I can connect up to 8 devices and it's been wonderful!! I can use my laptop, wireless printer, and Netflix on the Wii at the same time!

A quick update with the family....

Victor has been working harder than ever!

I have decided to go back to school in the Fall, I'm registered for 3 classes and I am thrilled to get started!

Orion has been taking Speech classes at the elementary school and is making great progress. He will be starting Kindergarten in the Fall!

Cyrus is a little ball of energy! His most recent obsession is basketball and claims that he IS Jimmer Fredette. He is such a happy kid!

Free Card

P.S. I made that Mother's Day card on Shutterfly.com. They have a deal for a free card right now with code MOMCARD . And technically it doesn't have to be a Mother's Day Card.
