So I've been online looking for apartments to move into in October and it’s more stressful than I thought it would be. While I still have six months to decide, I still need to find SOMETHING that fits what I'm looking for! It’s so ridiculous how full of crap the Internet is because you tell the search exactly what kind of apartment you're looking for and they give you a bunch of selections and when you find one you love, it doesn’t even have what you wanted, or where you wanted it. Is it really that difficult for a search filter to do what it is supposed to do? FILTER?! It's so bothersome that nearly every website you visit you have to put in your e-mail address to even look at what you want, and then you have to get a new e-mail address so that you dont ahve a bunch of spam going to your family inbox. Eventually causing everyone to take longer and longer on the Internet checking each of their spam encrusted e-mails before they can even do the business they came to do!
So, maybe I should take a break from it for a few days. We have also been looking at furniture; because I’m sure once we move in we will be sitting on the floor for a while :) Hopefully we will have enough saved up by October to buy a little furniture and still enough to move in! Maybe a few weeks beforehand, we will have to take a mini road trip down to Ikea to check it out.
Well, thanks for reading the raving antics :)

Always bring matches and Lighter Fluid
Well, there isn't much to brag about this weekend. We both worked every night except Sunday, and every morning I tried to sleep in a couple of hours, but apparently no one knows how to keep quiet when people are asleep, but I should be grateful we can even get sleep at night because when we have kids, it probably wont happen for a few more years :)
On Saturday night, Tylor bought his DSi that he has been wanting, along with his Pokemon game after scrounging up enough change to make up for tax.
On Sunday morning, Tylor's dad took us out to breakfast with his sister. It was really nice because we haven't seen him for a while and he has been having some problems lately, so it was nice to see that he doing alright. For the rest of the day, we pretty much stayed home, until it got dark and a few of our friends had planned to go the park and roast marshmallows around the fire pit.
Out of the 10 that had planned on coming, only 4 of us ended up staying, only after we showed up with no means to start the fire, and two of them left to get matches and only one came back. So we sat around the fire and roasted marshmallows over a fire that had to be probed every few seconds to keep going, and chatted about how you lose contact with nearly your entire senior class after graduation. After about 2 and a half hours, we decided to head home and that was our weekend.

There's a Place and a Time for Hope and for Love
Well, I suppose it's time for a new post. I read my cousin's blog and realized that she and I think a lot alike...we don't really think to blog unless something exciting happens! So, I decided to try to blog more often because people are trying to keep caught up with us and because I need at least 3 journal entries a week for English class!
Tylor has been working hard at work and has had quite a bit of responsibility put on him being Assistant Manager, some days he has to go in a few hours early and next week he has to work a 12 hour shift! He is still getting further ahead on credits and thinking about going to the DATC this summer for a fun elective, he is thinking about doing cooking because he loves to cook for me. :)
The best part is, he will be going to Layton High for his senior year in August! He is so excited to graduate and see his name on the diploma; he would love to have his dad see him graduate because that’s all he has ever wanted for Tylor.
As for me, I'm still trudging my way through school. I love it, but I just wish that I was done already! I got on the President's list last term for another 4.0, and there are only 3 weeks left in this term and I can start with the blood! I love my new job and I found out I actually work with my cousin on my dad's side! So far, I have more days than I was getting at the old nasty place I used to work at. I love the people I work with and pretty much everything about the job, it was definitely a good thing for me.
One of our closest friends is pregnant and she is due in April, we are so excited to help them with their baby. They have decided not to find out the sex, so we are trying our best to find neutral gifts for them. Also, my brother's new wife is pregnant and ALSO due in April. They have had a few close calls and she is so close they said she could go into labor any day now. So we're just waiting for the phone call for our FOURTH nephew to come into this world! We are so excited and I can't believe my brother is going to be a daddy, he is still the guy who was all about car stereos to me...I know he will be a great dad.
Other than that, things are just as crazy as usual. We are busy juggling our relationship with school, work, bills, and trying to save up for an apartment in October! And with all the crazy plans and schedules it's hard to find any time for anything else, even family. It's all really stressful, but it's easier as long as we can come home to each other and help each other through it all.

Our New Year Begins!
Tylor is further ahead in school than he needs to be and thank goodness! He can finally relax a little bit and take a break. He is really excited for senior year coming up and hopefully it will be a good one for him. He has even begun working on his classes so he will be ahead. He is doing great at work also, but is not particularly looking forward to me working as a Medical Assistant while he is in school and he can't work as much to contribute :)
I got my grades from last term today..4.0!!!
woo! I'm so happy! I worked really hard for it and I'm so grateful it was worth it. I also had a job interview yesterday and I GOT THE JOB!!
We have been doing great and are working hard to reach our goals. We work great together and have a lot of fun watching movies together late at night before bed because that's practically all the time we get together with all the mayhem lately. But things are really looking up and we are super excited for what lies in store for us this year. We began this year with the determination to make it better than last year, and so far, we're making it happen!
