Interesting Turn in My Nearly Perfect Day

Three cheers for Rexburg deciding that Spring should actually be Spring-ie! It is officially 57 degrees out with nothing but blue skys! Plus! Our apartment building had a free pancake breakfast this morning... and honestly.. what could ever be better than FREE pancakes!? So in a great mood filled with pancakes and sunshine, Hubsand and I decided to go for a bike ride! Not going to lie... I was a little shakey at first... I haven't been on bike in quite a while.. But once I got the hang of it, and Husband slowed down a bit, we had a great time! We shipped off my poor laptop to get fixed (he was having fan issues), I almost convinced Husband to go to the Adopt a Pet Shelter to get a puppy, annnd! the best part of all, we went to a furniture/appliance store, and planned our perfect kitchen and living room (if we were millionairs.)
Alas, the day couldn't be perfect forever. Husband and I had to split up. I went to go check and see if the apartment building that we want to move into had office  hours on Saturday (they don't), and Husband went to go chill with "The Guys" for a bit before he had to go to work. The unperfect part wasn't the split up.. no that's whatever.. the most unfortunate part for me at least was the fact that before we split up, I forgot to get the house keys from Husband. So I just biked home (about a mile-ish) to be locked out... and my cell phone locked in.

So... now I chill until 7 tonight when Husband gets home from work... what an interesting turn in my nearly perfect day!

Jennifred is For...

J is for Just used oxy clean spray on a stain on my white shirt... and HOLY COW! It actually disappeared right in front of my eyes! Like, faster than the commercials.! And all this time I've been making fun of it... Some things are truly shameful.

E is for Everyone beware. I've lost my glasses somewhere, and I can't find them. Which means. I'm driving without them. Don't worry I'm safe. Mostly. I can see you.. I just can't read any of the signs coming up. So if I suddenly turn off the freeway and cut you off... My apologies.

N is for Never forget to do the things you love. This coming semester I am taking a dance class because I miss dancing. I haven't danced in two years, and it's just plain depressing. I realized I was afraid to dance again because I was so out of shape, and it wasn't with the people I danced with in high school, and what if I start to let it take over my life again.? But you know what? It's a one credit class. I used to make time for a TON more dancing before, I can make time for this. Goodbye fears!

N is for Now that I have been married for nearly eight months, I think it is time for me to make that trip to Walmart and print out wedding pictures for the frames I have up on my walls. If you were to just see the frames we have up now with the fake pictures that came with them, you would assume that my husband and I are in our mid 40's and have three kids.... And that we were Asian on our wedding day.

I is for Interesting how I've been out of school for almost four months now and I'm dying to go back, but the minute I'm staying up til midnight for homework instead of my ever increasing addiction to Friends I'm going to wish I was right back to my summer vacation during the winter.

F is for Finally I have a real chance of getting a job.! I have been job hunting since last November, and this is the first job that's come along that is both something I want to do, and I have a real chance of getting it! P.S. I have to mention that this store that I want to work at happens to be my closet's soul mate. If I could just buy every piece of clothing in that store... my closet would be happily married with 19 children... and counting!

R is for Really sad I am not going to be in my home town tomorrow. I will not only be missing the Nation's biggest St. Patrick's Day Parade west of the Mississippi (Which I have been in at least seven times), but I will also be missing my favorite shoes store's best sale of the year!! .... I may or may not have called my mother and asked her to pick me up some beautiful shoes and send them to me! :D

E is for Exciting how the snow is gone and the rain has come! I grew up in a place where it never snowed, and only rained. A million times I dreamed of white Christmases, making snowmen, snowball fights and back yard ice skating rinks... Now that I live in the snow... Oh rain how I've missed you so! Snow. is pretty. But. gosh it's annoying!

D is for Definitely time to move. I've been looking at ever apartment building there is to move into around here... and I've got to tell you, there are tons of people out there that are paying the same or less than what we are, and they are getting way more! Seriously, I'd move now if our current apartment didn't make it so expensive to try and sell your contract. Please, August, come faster, it's time for us to leave!

J.E.N.N.I.F.R.E.D pretty much stands for my life. :]

Good Morning!

I have been avoiding getting a blog because I feel like it's Mormon law to create a blog after you get married so you can document publicly your love sick newly wed life- And I am not usually one to follow the crowd. Alas, I have created this blog despite my better judgment. However, I will not be writing about my overly annoying happiness, or my ever so wonderful husband. Well, I might, but not in a rub it in your face kind of way. Mainly I want to write about my life and see if anyone out there finds it interesting. And so here is my first post. And as such there are some things you ought to know about me.

1. I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
2. I enjoy the color orange.
4. I recently began learning the art of sewing.
5. I can ask you how you are doing in Portuguese.
6. I sincerely miss my hometown every St. Patrick's Day.
7. I am able to recite the entire movie, The Lion King, nearly word for word.
8. I decided to create this blog after reading my friend Carly's blog.
9. I consider myself a die hard Harry Potter fan.
10. I have performed nationally.
11. I got married 7 months ago.
12.  Jennifred is a nick name that my niece gave to me two Christmas-es ago.

That's just about all you need to know about me... for now. I suppose the point of these things is so you can get to know me. So let the getting to knowing begin!
