I feel like I should post something because I really need that awful picture of me in the hospital off the front of this blog, but it's been a very rough few days and I just don't have it in me to do much right now except lay in bed. School is draining me more than I thought it could and Brian is sick for the third time in two weeks. I am not enough butter spread over too much bread. Sorry for the downer. Oh, wait-I did get my eyebrows waxed, so there's something good. I'm sure this will be a better week....

turleystThis will be a good week - temple open house, coming to see Grandma and Grandpa, shopping at Build-a-Bear ann Williams & Sonoma - what more could you ask for? It'll be better, and I do hope Brian gets well. This goofy virus that's going around is a kicker this year. susnhine does wonders, too. Can't wait for that one.

I know you have a fun weekend planned. You will make it through the week and enjoy the fun. I totally need my eyebrows waxed. Plus who wouldn't want to be going to the temple and shopping. I probably won't. I may even get to spend my bday in the hospital. Oh well, this too shall pass. P.S. Hope they find out what Brian has for yours and his sanity.

People who don't read this blog: 1) My kids 2) Husband 3) Husband's family 4) everyone else in the world And I want to keep it that way. This is my way to journal and record and I can't do that if I can't talk about how bat crazy my family is sometimes.  { correction: we are bat crazy all the time with only a few sane moments that no one witnesses} So Jacob and I are coming out of a long spell of really trying to get along and most of the time me hating him a lot. Disgust and loathing are accurate terms here. Some of it he deserved (nothing like infidelity or a porn addiction, just overall nincompoopiness and stupidity) and some of it he didn't. Some of it was me being a raging pregnant woman and post partum beast. And a lot of it was him being totally insecure about his medical career. As a side note, medical students have a very high rate of suicide and divorce. Anyway.  So I wanted to record that we are on the mend and working out lots of communication and what G...

Out On the Town

Hi, Megan!! So good to hear from you! You've been on my mind a lot lately. I hope that means you and your fam are ok. Here's an answer to your question: The Match, or more accurately, THE GREAT AND ALL POWERFUL MATCH OF DOOM AMD DREAD, is where medical students find out where they do residency and in what specialty. Think of it as an arranged marriage. I will figure out how to post comments eventually. For now, this will do :)  Jacob and I have been making an effort to go out more-- for several reasons. Mostly to build our relationship, because we actually genuinely enjoy each other's company. But also to get away from those needy children and for pete's sake, we live in the fun capital of the country.  Tonight was my choice so we went to Greek restaurant in the middle of Chinatown. The sign was in Chinese and I walked by it twice, not thinking it would be a Greek place. The food was very good and we always have a lot to talk about. We wandered Chinatown and Canal stree...

NYE

New Year’s Eve 2009: Mapleton, UT I left Brian  in Logan and took the girls down to visit my parents for the new year. I felt bad and I felt relieved. I needed a break from him. We didn’t have money for food. He spiraled and never climbed out.  New Years Eve 2014: Mapleton, UT I went to Utah with my girls and left Jacob in Miami. He could have come but made up an excuse about studying and visiting his dad instead. Always talked about visiting his dad—alone— when I talked about a family visit. New Year’s Eve consisted of me, my parents and Stephen and laurel. There might have been some others that left earlier. I took no pictures. The new year rang in and felt so alone and empty. Did Jacob even care?  New Years Eve 2015: Vancouver, WA Pregnant with Lucy, unable to work, Jacob had just failed the most important test that would allow him into residency, I decided to wait out the remainder of the pregnancy at my parent’s new house. This move was one of the most humiliating ex...
