Could You Please?

You know that one time, when you really need to go to the bathroom at work or at school or where ever? Think back to the time that this happened to you. Today here at work I was taking a bathroom break. One thing that I wish wouldn't be awkward is walking into the stall when a co-worker who previously used the bathroom was still in the bathroom. Like today for example, someone had just gotten done using the bathroom and they are washing their hands, and I though to myself "okay there are only two stalls in this bathroom, I have to PICK the ONE that they didn't go in, in fear that they stunk it up." But once I walked into the stall, the toilet bowl water is still moving. . . . then I try to breath, WRONG ONE!!!! I had a 50/50 chance of picking the one she just used and I did! Here the the thing. . remember, she is still in there washing her hands, so I couldn't turn around, back out, and go into the fresh stall. You get my drift here! I SUFFERED!! I mean I know people can stink, especially in the bathroom, but if it stinks, and you know it does, fan the smell around or something so it isn't gathered all in one spot so the lingering doesn't last as long!! hahahahahahahahaha
Once I closed the door, I stood there for awhile deciding weather to escape into the other stall right after I heard her walk out, or just deal with it. I waited until she left, but then another lady walked in. . I had a stick it out and go!
So in between covering my face with my good smelling shirt and holding my breath. . I got out alive! Nice fresh air! I then laughed to myself. Why? I thought to myself "dang this would be a funny blog post!" So here I am!! Poor lady for stinking up the bathroom and causing my young self to gag but thanks to her, this has turned into one of my FAVORITE posts!!
P.S. I am so thankful that She washed her hands!

Love To

It is 11:50PM and as much as I would like to fall asleep and dream. I find myself sitting here in bed, blogging. As you see, my parents bedroom is right above me . . . . . . . .and when they. . . . WATCH A MOVIE. sickos! HAHAHAHAHA When they watch a movie, I watch it with them. Not by choice either. They have surround sound so when they decide to watch Advitar for the first time, the surround sound has to be on, right!? Yes.

I have a lot of things on my mind, I really wish I had enough time to write it all out and get feedback from what you guys think. But since there isn't enough time. I will Share with you all what I am listening to right now, I all time FAVORITE TALK, From the Young Womens Conference. "Your Happily Ever After" -President Dieter F. Uchtdorf. You should read it! Click on the link right ubove my piture, to the right!

Anyways, This talk uplifts me and gives me hope! Along with this talk, I think back to the Stake Conference I attended (the stake I used to be in) in St George this past weekend. One of the speakers was the Patriarch. I love when Patriarch's speak. What he said that still gets to me today is this " . . .A sacred document next to our scriptures is our patriatical blessing. The Lord see's in us, things that we do not see in ourselves. Somethings promised my not be in this life, but MOST things given to you, WILL BE FULLFILLED in this life. . ." AMAZING!!

Why do I get so worried about things that I desire to have RIGHT NOW, when I just need to adjust myself, and be on the Lord's time and work on myself spiritually. I know He is preparing me for things that I have been promised in THIS life, at THIS time, in THIS life.

May I continue to have patients on the way.

Sweetness, their TV is off . . that means sleep is NEAR!

Sleep . . Or Lack thereof



I think this is what I would have looked like the last couple of days if my supervisor wasn't sitting right behind me and my boss right down the hall.

HAHAHAHA BUT BOY. . . Do I have a story for you!! Get your seat belts on! lol Why have I not gotten the sleep I need. Let us begin on this wild adventure!

I dont even know what day it began on, that is how much I am lacking in what my body needs, Kevin and my dad and back me up on how LOONY I have been. . Seriously. But anyways so one day this week, my average body decided to wake up at 5:00AM!!!!!! And ever since then I haven't been the same person. But the only good thing that has come out of waking up that early, is I FIXED my computer, dont ask me how I did it, but boy o boy! My Internet works now, on which I am so happy about because now I can watch all the tv shows that I have missed this week , and will miss tonight, and I can start blogging "normally" again!

See so even though right now and all week, I have been feeling the aftermath of waking up at 5:00AM!!!!! and not getting to bed earlier than 11:00PM, My computer got fixed by a person who is not an I.T.! BOOOYA!

How was the ride??

Broken

I have been trying to update my blog, but everytime I wanted to, I have been to tierd to even open the computer, PLUS, when I am on the computer for 10 1/2 hours a day at work, getting on the computer at home is the last thing I wanna do. Well these past couple of days, I have an biggere erge to update. So I finally had time to do it last night and the night before. . but. . The internet is not being picked up, so I have no way of really updating my blog with good pictures to back up my stories. So my laptop is BROKEN! The internet wont pull up!! My dad used it a couple of hours before I got on, and it worked just fine for him.




So this is my updated post, all the frustration and sadness of not a "real" post of the past week does apply!

April 3, 1991





19 Years Ago today, I was given the gift of a little brother!


KEVIN HENRY DURR


Today this wonderful little brother, whom has grown much taller than me,
is turning 19 years old. We have gorwn up, and we have an ubber close
realtionship. I guess that is what happens when you are the youngest ones
still at home. Needless to say that I am so proud, and lucky to be a
big sister to such an awesome, funny, wonderful, great kid!

Heavenly Father really has blessed me, and everyone else in my
family to be part of Kevins life, and to raise him. My mom did
all the deep work yes, but when you are the baby everyone in the fam raises you.

Am I right??

So this is my dedicated blog entry to Kevin on his 19 Birthday!
19 is a big age! and his last one with his family for two years!


Kevin: I love you lots and lots! You are going to be a
powerhouse missionary!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEVIN!

LOVE, ME!

On Monday night, Ashely, Courtney and I went over to Tina's house to make sign for Tierney (they are twins) It was so much fun!







We were talking that night and couldn't believe that 18 months had past so fast. Well, Today I got off work early, and headed to the Airport. We waited for what seemed forever, We thought she was never going to come down the stairs, But low and behold she REALLY DID!! No April foolin there! I spent the whole night with her, talking and TONS OF LAUGHTER!! Then after she got realized we went and saw a movie, a good one too! After the airport we went and ate, which, P.S. Was DELICIOUS!!!!!



Needless to say I am so happy that she is home and that, our "peace" group is back together (made at Oakcrest)
