Our Only Chance is the Lighthouse

Today we went to one of my favorite places ever, the Yaquina Head Lighthouse. I've climbed to the top several times in all types of weather... but today I got to experience it during heavy winds and some rain which was a totally different experience. I loved it because I feel like during a storm a lighthouse is always there to help warn you of the danger. I think the lighthouses are so beautiful and I love to watch them. Fortunately for me we are staying in a house where I can look out and see the light spinning... and showing the boats where rocks are. Even though most boats rely on other sources now days they aren't always as stable... even when they break down there is always the light house still shining and leading the more unlucky boats to shore.

It's already the middle of the week, time flies when you are somewhere you never ever want to leave! I honestly wish that I could just stay here... I could leave all my stuff and not care about it... hum maybe I should just sell it all for the cost of living here till I can find a job... that is an interesting idea... but yet I'm sure after another few days of paradise I will drag myself back to Pocatello and go back to work. So I guess I have to enjoy the last of vacation while I can.

Earlier this week was sunshine and time to play in the Ocean, fly kites, and go on bike rides... all were very fun and I loved it. Now it is starting to turn stormy and I am totally fine with that too. Sitting looking out the big windows and the rough waters is so beautiful! I have no issues at all with the rough weather here on the beach! I prefer at least a bit of rain to all sunny days since I am after all a little water/rain girl! I love love love it! So, who knows what the rest of the week will bring but I love all of my time here in the most beautiful place I've ever been!!

Phase 10

Well, as pretty much anyone who has known me for a while knows I am a big lover of both card and board games... but as of late I have been especially addicted to the card game Phase 10. I play it as often as I can... most often this is with Tyson, Charley, and Christian because they are the ones so kind as to sit around for several hours and play with me and I LOVE IT!!! I think that phase 10 is so super fun! It just makes me feel good every time I play it... and luckily one of those nights was tonight. Thank you to all who played!!

Finally a New post.

I don't think too many people read my blog... but the few who do seem to have noticed I haven't posted anything new here in almost two months... so I suppose that it is time to do so.

Last time I posted was on my macbook which now belongs to my Dad... since it was a graduation gift from my parents and it was no longer working for me I gave it back to them so my Dad now uses it for things he can still use it for. And I am slowly adjusting to life on a PC.

April went by fast We had a fun Easter, we dyed eggs and did all the traditional things like that the "Easter bunny" or Tyson got me a very pretty necklace and hid it in an egg along with my Candy, it was very cute of him. We also went to Bodies the Exhibition at the Museum of Idaho. We had seen one in Las Vegas on our honeymoon and I'd found it really interesting so we thought we should go and see the one in Idaho Falls as well since we love going for drives anyway. I highly recommend it to anyone!

We have been stuck inside WAY more than we would have liked for this time of year. So, we have been watching a ton of movies, netflix movies are always coming and going and we still seem to never have anything to watch.

I have re-found my addiction for Phase 10 and that seems to be what I want to do most of the time, but we can only do it so often seeing as you need at least four or so people to do it, but whenever Charley and Christian have a night where they can come play we love having them over to do it.

I've been spending a lot of time working on memory books... they are so much fun for me. I always liked scrap-booking when I was younger but my handwriting is bad and I just didn't have the supplies and so doing it all online and then printing them off works so much better for me. So, I'm going to attempt to do one a year and I have been making sure I'm all caught up so that as soon as I'm back from Oregon I can get those pages done in time for the Sale going on in June. (I try to never play full price for things like that... especially because when the go on sale they go on such good sales!)

Work is super crazy this week, our District Manager is coming Tomorrow or possibly tonight so we have been trying to make sure the store is more beautiful that ever. We haven't met this DM yet because of the company doing restructuring so we are really trying to impress him.

This next week and a half coming up is going to be busy but hopefully also fun as I get ready to go on vacation. And then of course vacation itself.

I've for the time being stopped writing on what has always been my main story to write, it will always be my favorite and I will always go back to it but for the time being I feel it is important to work on something else. So I have decided to take a short story I wrote in High School and turn it into a longer hopefully novel. So we'll see how that goes.

Hopefully over the next little bit I will be better at blogging for the few of you who are interested in what is going on with me and want to read this.
