a change

welp,

i don't work at jamba anymore...

it's a little bit of a long story.

as i like to call it, "i accidentally quit."

and i'll leave it at that.

being jobless right now i picked back up my first role of being a domestic housewife. i've been cleaning, keeping up with laundry, and cooking home meals for once in my life. it was so hard while working cuz i would plop my tush down on the couch after work and not do ANYTHING. poor brett. we've been living a bit like slobs due to my laziness. i'm just not really good at balancing work and home. but whatever, we'll deal.

of course i'm looking for a job, but here in crappy rexburg, pickins are very slim.

i've also been getting to spend more free time with my husband, yeah we don't really have money to go out and do whatever anymore but i just love spending time with him. my hands are also healing really well which is a HUGE PLUS! i'm gonna do my nails.

we ate some cherries which i always cautiously eat due to an undiagnosed allergy to certain fruits. they were SOO good but alas....my lips and gums swelled like a botched botox procedure.

no, you can't see the complete damage b/c i actually have fat lips in real life but i sure did feel lotsa swelling. but you can see a bump on my lower lip and there were red streaks. suckssss. it was SO worth it though. i finally looked it up and turns out i have a certain allergy syndrome (along with my severe pollen and cat allergies), where i'm allergic to certain FRESH fruits and veggies. it varies so i really can't pin point as to what exactly i'm allergic to but when its cooked, canned, blah blah blah then i'm fine.
one day earlier this week while brett was in class i was feeling really stressed about finances and i was a little bored so i took our big picnic blanket, a book i've been taking a long time in finishing, and my big sunglasses and i went to the park and sunbathed. people tell me all the time i don't need to tan but i love getting really dark and sucking up the sun. it was so relaxing and wonderful. i needed that. when i got home i felt a little heat exhaustion and got myself a huge glass of OTAI. i didn't make this, we got tons of leftovers from a ward we performed for. but one day i shall make it. otai is a refreshing tongan drink that is from fresh fruits, usually watermelon, mango, apple or whatever you want. in this case it was fresh shredded apple in its own juice. i eat it with a spoon and drink it with a straw. i still have lotsa leftovers you're welcome to come over and try some!

ta ta for now!
