Rexburg, oh how i miss you sooo

WINTER Poem It's winter in IDAHO And the gentle breezes blow Seventy miles an hour At thirty-five below. Oh, how I love IDAHO When the snow's up to your butt You take a breath of winter And your nose gets frozen shut. Yes, the weather here is wonderful So I guess I'll hang around I could never leave dear Idaho I'm frozen to the ground! So although mostly this poem is true...I really do miss Idaho!!!

BOOM ROAST MY LIFE:

1)used to describe something most unfortunate in your life

EX. Sat at a stop light for 7 minutes...boom roast my life
EX. Ate a piece of moldy bread...boom roast my life
EX. Been sick for a month...boom roast my life
EX. I work at Red Robin...boom roast my life

Can be abbriviated: B.R.M.L

OCCUPATION:

I currently work at Red Robin. I feel like I live there. I told myself I was never going back into retail so I thought the restaurant bis would be a nice change of scenery.....here's the thing, the restaurant business is just as, if not more stressful. I tend to get stressed pretty easily and so I keep telling myself that this will be a great way for me to aquire some new stress-dealing skills....well just have to see about that. Mostly since I am just a hostess, the biggest stress is making sure all of your servers are happy...this is not an easy task. In some ways I like it a lot better than a retail job, for example I get a discount on food...fifty percent off. Also a restaurant is much more fast paste(...past....pastte...???) the shift goes by a lot quicker and you don't really feel like you were working for five hours. However that is only if we are busy. During the non-lunch and non-dinner hours it is so boring and I start losing my mind and making no sense, infact just the other day as two people were leaving the restaurant I said "Have a great meal you guys!" What I really meant to say was "Have a great day!".

The Blessing of the Blackberry Bush

By: Donnell Allan

One day when our son Jesse was a toddler, I was watching our children play in the yard. Suddenly I realized that he was no longer with the others. One moment he was there, and the next he was gone.
My heart pounded in panic. I called out for him as I frantically searched the yard. Soon I heard his frightened cries, which I followed. I found Jesse in the yard next door, entangled in the middle of some blackberry vines. He struggled to escape, but each time he moved, thorns from the vines buried themselves deeper into his clothing and skin. He was frightened and in pain. It took me quite some time to remove each thorn and pull Jesse free.
It hurt me to see my little child suffer. But then I remembered the large pond located in the neighbor’s yard. If the blackberries had not detained Jesse, he might have wandered into the pond and risked drowning.
I’ve since learned that God sometimes allows us to stumble into thorny places to protect us from more harmful situations. He loves us and does what is best for us, even when it hurts terribly, because sometimes the pain is necessary for our physical safety or spiritual growth. When we turn to Him in our trials, He carefully pulls out the thorns and comforts our hearts.
Years after that incident with Jesse, I was touched when I came across this passage from Elder George Q. Cannon (1827–1901): “The Saints should always remember that God sees not as man sees; that he does not willingly afflict his children, and that if he requires them to endure present privation and trial, it is that they may escape greater tribulations which would otherwise inevitably overtake them. If He deprives them of any present blessing, it is that he may bestow upon them greater and more glorious ones by-and-by.”1
My experience with my son—what I now call “the parable of the blackberries”—has brought comfort to me as I have watched my children endure trials and challenges. I am reminded that our trials and suffering have purpose and that the Lord always has our best interest in mind, even when allowing us to suffer temporarily among life’s blackberry thorns.

Brad Paisley comes to Denver!

So last friday night, when I got off work I called my friend Amanda...little did we know that our night would turn into a grand adventure. First we both were really hungry and so we decided on Panera and it was closed. Boom Roast Our Lives. Then we just decided to go eat at the Mall foodcourt...well we were like the only ones in there eating and we basically got kicked out...feeling like loosers lol we decided that we really needed to come up with something to do! So we decided to go check out Hobby Lobby. Well that was closed as well. Boom Roast Our Lives. Then we go to Wallgreens which is just accross the street and the second we get in there we get told that they are closing in five minutes....sooo we buy gummi lunches and get on our way. Then Amanda has a spectacular idea! the Brad Paisley Concert was tonight so we decided to go and sit on the top level of the parking garage and eat our lunches and listen to the concert... it was awesome! seriously a blast!. Well once the concert was over, lol Amandas car would not start and we had to call her dad to come save us...it was one crazy night!

Craziness!

So there were these two guys who were hired to create a logo for the exact same company. Neither of them knew that the other was hired as well. They were both taken on a tour of New York City to get some ideas of what to do and they were taken on the exact same route and they passed the exact same things along the way. They came up with pretty much the exact same logo....crazy huh? we don't really think how much our surroundings have an impact on us but they definitely do!
also did you know the colors yellow and red make you hungry?

WELL...

So this is my blog. im new at this, so i really dont know if i am doing this right, but like emileeee i too have faith that one day i will get the hang of this!
