Goals for 2011
So I have decided finally..lol what goals I would like to accomplish this year. Cory and I as a couple want to make it back to the temple. That is our couple goal this year. I have a bunch of personal ones but my main ones are
1. I want to be beautiful
2. I want to lose weight
3. I want another child
They are going to all be so tough. I don't want to give up on myself so I hope to have the motivation to work on them. And just a reminder only six days till my birthday.. ya!!

Mourning my Shappu2000
When Cory and I were first married we were in walmart one time waiting in line to check out, we see this box set of 10 Shappu2000 knives that claim they never need to be sharpened. We've all seen sets like these right? well what made these ones stand out was that they were only 1$ for the set. I'm thinking ya right!! These are probably garbage.. I threw a set in the cart I figured heck they are only 1$ I will chance it for a dollar!! Little did I know that they would be our favorite knives in the whole house! They are the sharpest knives ever!! over the years we have dwindled down to about 3 left. And today sadly I broke one. I was going to show you all the broken knife but the server to upload pictures onto blogger is not working right now.. I will try later.
Sad times..
I have seen that they do still sell the knives online for 12.95 a set. I like the dollar price tag better but I will have to order some, They work awesome!! and just like they claim they never do need to be sharpened!
We are all doing well other than the fact that its that time of year to be sick. I'm still working full time and lately I have had some struggles with my job. Ive been in tears the last couple of days I have worked. Its not something I should get into details on here, and I don't think the issue will be over soon. I just have to deal.
Constance is doing really well she is such a good reader!! she is reading on a first grade level :) Cory and I don't know whether or not she will attend kindergarten again where I work (she did not make the age deadline for public kindergarten) or if we will put her in public kindergarten or if we will have her tested for the first grade cause she is so dang smart. I want to do whats best for her but what tempts me is to have her go to kindergarten where I work next year so I can peak on her thru out the day :) we will see.
Cory's 1986 Thunder bird died recently so we took it to pick and pull and they gave us 274.00 for it. Since then he has purchased a 2005 KIA Rio to drive to work. They say its blueberry colored but I say its a pale metallic lavender.
And just a reminder for all of you out there a week from Monday is my BIRTHDAY so you still have a couple of days to buy me a present :)
