Lately I have realized that I am the "still" girl. STILL single, STILL at NuSkin, STILL going to aerobics, STILL on my floaty at the pool, STILL going to Jazz games....Still, Still, Still. Now all of these things don't need changing (especially aerobics & the Jazz!) but some definitely do! I've come to the realization that my life is roughly the same now as it was 10 years ago which is not necessarily a good thing.
Thus after 10 years at NuSkin, I will be forcing a change in my life. I have accepted a new job at MonaVie as a Project Manager. It is a MLM juice company, but the BIG change is that it is in SLC (106th South). It is a great opportunity & I feel that I will be able to grow personally and professionally there. I'm sure I'll love the commute....we will see how that goes.
I'm sure there are more blog entries coming with this big change, but I wanted to let everyone know I am no longer "STILL" at NuSkin (well after July 3rd...LOL!)

A New Calling
Well I received a new calling today. It is my first calling since I've been in the family ward and it is in the nursery. Today was my first day and I have to say I don't understand why people hate it. Cute kids play around you, you read them stories, feed them treats, sing songs (that part is hilarious!) and teach them a lesson (today we learned that we taste with our tongues and eat with our mouths). Maybe it is because I don't have kids that having 16 kids for 2 hours a week doesn't seem rough. It is almost a welcome break from the boredom of my life. It also gets me out of our Sunday school lessons that often include comparing the Book of Mormon to various movies (Lord of the Rings, Star Trek, Star Wars, GhostBusters (seriously), etc).....
It was also my first day....I may learn soon why it is so bad.

Summer is finally, finally here!
So two posts in one night! I had to finish one I previously started. Anyways, finally, finally summer appears to be on its way here. It hasn't been roasting hot yet, but it is definitely warming up. I haven't made it to the pool yet, but I'm sure that is coming soon! The past few days have been EXCELLENT and here are the top 10 reasons why (in no particular order):
1. I was able to run outside in the mornings in shorts without freezing
2. My double-header softball game on Wednesday did not involve me wearing a beanie or a sweatshirt. I was able to wear shorts & not freeze!
3. I BBQ'd a steak & a hamburger for dinner (separate nights of course!)
4. I got to go roller blading up the canyon (although I also learned while roller blading that the kids these days do not roller blade anymore. They long board or bike (road bikes). There were sadly only 2 other couples roller blading).
5. Laying out in my backyard, getting a real good tan & actually sweating (time for the floaty in the pool).
6. Sunday walk after sunset - WONDERFUL
7. Reading a book on my deck in the evening (finished Pride & Prejudice)
8. Washing my car (and hoping it stays clean)
9. Going to the Parade of Homes - okay, not necessarily summer, but we did go & saw some beautiful, beautiful homes.
10. Driving with the A/C on for more than 2 seconds.
I sure hope summer is here to stay! This winter weather was here way, way too long! Seriously, it was the longest winter ever!
