Help feed hungry cats and dogs...

I ran across another website that I wanted to tell you about. It is freekibblekat.com and freekibble.com which helps feed stray dogs and cats. For every question you answer, right or wrong, ten pieces of kibble are donated to eleven animal shelters across the country. This is one little thing that I can do to help out. So log on and help feed cats and dogs.

Word of Wisdom

Well, Hi everyone! I haven't written on here in quite some time. I have been super busy and also I am not always good about keeping a journal. I am doing really well. I had been sick last week with symptoms of the flu but I am feeling much better now. Last night I went to the activity at Brother Little's and had a great time. Not that many people showed up but I got to spend time with my friends Kelly and Maija, so I am happy. I enjoyed it much better this year because last year I was sick and just learning that I am sensitive to milk and wheat. I feel much better than I did last year! WooHoo!

I have started an exercise program that I believe will be beneficial for me. The Word of Wisdom says that we should get regular exercise and to eat foods that are good for our bodies. It also says to get enough sleep. This council from our church leaders is inspired and I am going to do a better job of following this council.

Well I need to get going but I hope everyone has a great week. Till next time...

I am pretty worried about getting a new job when my current one ends. I have been thinking about it a lot since I have been home sick the past two days. I don't do well when I have a lot of free time on my hands. I am planning on doing some volunteer work next semester. I want to volunteer at the local food bank and I am hoping to volunteer at my current job when it ends to help them out. The jobs I looked at online today were all jobs that I am underqualified for. That is pretty frustrating. I am retaking the current class I am in next semester. I have come to the realization that I am not good at online classes, so next semester I am taking Micosoft Office in a classroom. I got so far behind this semester for a number of reasons. I am going to apply for a pell grant and see if I can get some money to help me go to school.

I have enjoyed spending more time with my cat. He is happy that I have been home the past two days. I taught my cat to fetch. He doesn't know that is a trick for dogs, so don't tell him.

Oprah has a contest that I am going to enter. I need to write out my submission and I am going to start that today. Winning the contest would change my life. I would be able to go to school full-time to to get my Bachelor's something that I really want to do.

Well, I am going to run and start my letter to Oprah. I hope everyone has a good evening.

Hey Happy Sunday Everyone,

It is a great day. I am looking forward to church and to the temple dedication tonight. It has been awhile since I have been to one, at least five years. They are a great spiritual experience.

I have decided that I do want to take my last class next semester. I am planning on working part-time and finishing up the last class I need to get the certificate. I have been looking for a new job and it seems most of the jobs require more experience than I have. I am not sure how to get around that. I have been working in an office setting for six months and most jobs require a year to two years experience. So I will have to keep plugging along in school to get more education.

If anyone knows of someone who is hiring and office clerk/office assistant please let me know.

To take a class or not to take a class

Hi all, I hope everyone is having a good morning! I am finally posting some on this blog. It is looking better. I am hoping to update several times a week. I hope that I will have something to say. If not then I won't post.

I am meeting with someone today to determine what I will be doing next semester. I am planning on working but I would also like to take a class. If I do well in my class this semester then I only have one more to take to get my certificate. I think it will help me to get a better job. I would eventually like to get my bachelor's but I am going to need to work for awhile and save up to be able to do that.

I have several things I need to do today. First and foremost I need to work but afterwards I really need to study for my class and also need to spend time looking for a new job.

Myles is having fun playing with a toy I gave him several weeks ago. Most of his toys get destroyed quickly but this one has lasted a lot longer. I have gotten a lot of mileage from it.

Well I hope everyone has a good Thursday and I will talk to you all later.

I am reading a great new book that I picked on Saturday at Barnes and Noble. It is The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. I am loving it and am having trouble putting it down. Saturday was the start of the new me. I am using the tools I am learning in the book to be more the person I want to be. I have some bad habits that I am going to change. I am encourage everyone who hasn't read it to pick it up and if you have read it to read it again.

I am commited to being consistent in every thing I do, whether it be church,work or school.

I am committed to doing more volunteer work. I am not going to be able to contribute much in terms of financial support so I will need to find other ways to give. One of the charities I am passionate about is the World Food Program. They have a website freerice.com where you can go and play games and while you are playing are donating free rice to places where people are going without food. You don't even have to pay anything. So for those of us in a financial crunch because of the economy this is a great way to give. I have the link on my blog. Check it out!F

This weekend I went to Tally to attend the Hootenanny and to see my parents. I had a great time. I rode up with Michelle and Lori. The Hootenanny starting at 6:30 with hamburgers and hotdogs followed by square dancing and a bonfire. About seven people from the College Park ward went up to Tally and it was great getting to know them better. I also met some new people.
Sunday we attended church in the Tally 5th ward and church was amazing. The spirit was so strong. I could really see myself in the 5th ward if I were to move back next year. I am considering moving back home after next year. I would like to spend more time around my parents and I want to be apart of the Tally community.

Hi,

I am up pretty early getting ready for work. I am really grateful to have a job and I enjoy what I do. My cat has been trying to help me type. He likes to be helpful in a lot of things I do. I am so glad I adopted him. Well I better go and finish getting ready for work. I definately don't want to be late.

So my head has aparently not been attached to my body this week. On Friday I forgot my purse at work. Today I drove to work to pick up my purse and to get my USB drive which I also left at work. I stayed and did some homework and then I came home remembering my purse but forgetting my USB drive. I need the drive so I could go to school,finished my homework in the lab and turned it in by midnight tonight. If you find my head please bring it to me the next time you see me at church. Thank you!
