I have been bugged by an amount of people because I haven't posted anything on here for a while. But I guess I just feel weird sometimes knowing people are reading about my life. Really though, I like posting on here for JD. And knowing someday he will read this, and get to see everything I went through while he was gone.This week for me has brought many changes. I don't know if those changes are permanent or not, but because of such a big difference it feels like this week really was an entire year. I have a friend that I have known for a...

New Pictures of JD!! JD burning a tie because he has been out for SIX MONTHS!!
Bittersweet. The best word I can use to describe waiting for a missionary is bittersweet. I say this because Mother's Day was the bitter side. I didn't get to talk to JD on the phone when he called. And I though I was doing okay with the whole idea since I got to email with him, but it was harder to deal with than I was expecting. His mom texted me...

My Facebook status right now is, "I am on TOP of the WORLD!!! JD always knows how to make me feel better even when he is miles and miles away. I love that kid." And it is so, so true.I have not been having the easiest time accepting the fact that I don't get to talk to JD on the phone anymore when he calls. And he knows that. I don't know how he feels about it and if it is as hard for him as it is for me, but he understands what I am feeling. It's just that letters or emails are not the same.. they are from him, but he's not really there. ...

My life could be well described lately as a busy bee. Everything all seems to be happening at once. School ending soon, dance ending, summer classes starting, spring cleaning..it never ends. And although I'm crazy busy all the time, I am grateful for it because it helps time fly by. I'm almost at six months down, a fourth of the way done with JD's mission!!
I had my dance concert/end of semester show a few weeks ago. It was a lot of fun and it...

Tonight was quite an experience! The Jabbawockeez from MTV's America's Best Dance Crew was at SLCC performing. I never watched that show that much, but being a dancer and a major hip hop fan, how can you not know who the Jabbawockeez are? These guys can do some crazy things! I love that they based their moves on Michael Jackson. Wonderful idea there. There were times during their performance that I could have sworn they were not real. The way they...

Originally I had two blogs, one for my missionary waiting experience, and one for my normal life. But. I realized that waiting for J.D. is such a big part of my life, that there is no way these two things can be separated. Half of the time, I wanted to put the same things on both of my blogs. So, this is now my combined experiences of life and waiting all in one. Although, don't be surprised if 90% of my postings are about that missionary of mine, mainly because the only times I feel like I should write are the times that I want to tell about...

Everytime I get a letter from JD I am a little on edge about what it is going to say. Because sometimes his letters are so exciting and happy! But there are also those times that the letters are very hard.. much like last week. This weeks letter however, was wonderful!!
See, when JD left, he gave me a ring. Not an engagement ring, but a ring that says how much he loves me. I wear it to show everyone that I am waiting for a missionary. Not the waiting...

I had work today.. I work in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit. And it is the best job in the whole world! Who wouldn't want to feed and hold the cutest babies ever all day, and get paid for it? The reason I write about working there in my post about my missionary is that I love going to work, yet it is also so hard. All I see all day long are these cute little families with their little babies. The majority of the people I see are usually young couples, a lot of times their first child. I see these mothers with their husbands leaning over their...

Okay, so the whole reason I started this blog is all because of the letter I got this week. The whole time JD has been gone has definately been a rollercoaster, but this so far has been the lowest point. And I'm probably making a bigger deal of it than I should, but to me, it was huge. See, the only rule I know of that JD was breaking is that when he would call home on Mother's Day or Christmas Day, he would talk to me on the phone. Well,...
I may not be the greatest writer in the world, but after yesterday I decided the best idea for me would be to find an outlet for my feelings. So to start off, I am four months and sixteen days into waiting for a missionary. He is serving in Louisville, Kentucky, speaking English. He left on November 4, 2009, although it feels like he has been gone for ten years. Everyone told me that it was going to be so hard waiting for him. I didn't believe them. Little did I know, they were so right. Waiting for him is the hardest thing I have ever had...
