John Bender Fist Pump

I know I've been so bad at posting. Thats because I've been gone and I was being lazy. SO! The past few weeks... The job search is taking longer than expected. I seem to be in a catch 22. They want people with experience. I have 5 weeks experience chairside and 3 years in the health field but I guess its not the exact kind they're looking for. So while thats been going on, Dave went to Texas for 2 weeks. That was a total shocker. We had NO clue he didn't need to be licenced to work there. He loved the area. So maybe someday we'll move there for a while. We both dont like it when he travels. it seemed like forever when we get to see each other. BOO! Which brings up a new subject. We might be MOVING to Arizona! The Phoenix/Mesa area to be exact. Cases havent been coming in in this area for Dave's career, so we might relocate. Were both kind of excited and hoping we do. I have family down there so we wouldn't feel totally stranded. We will know for sure Monday and from there we will make our decision. If we decide not to, Dave will keep looking for other security jobs in the area so we don't have to move. We have also been to Bear Lake this summer. The water is still soooooooo cold! But it was a super fun weekend. We went shooting for my first time. I did so good! I got 10/12 shots. Daves dad was sure impressed (John Bender fist pump). We also went on boat rides, water ski rides, and were lazy beach bums. It was all so much fun! We were even able to spend quality time with Daves parents. Which dosnt happen often enough. When were home on Friday nights we always go to Mission: Improvable. It is SO much fun. We die laughing every time, and it goes by way too fast. You definatly get your $5's worth. If you ever want to go, let me know and we can carpool or something. Peace out!

Sandman skips my house.

Ever since I was a little girl its been so hard for me to fall asleep. Every night I have a battle with my brain to shut off for the night. My mom would actually give me some of her problems and I'd solve them for her. Lately its been really bad. I mean I'm up till 2 or 3. I think about countless things. Like; what chores I need to do, what places I need to call the next day for interviews, places I need to go, ladies I need to visit teach and if I'm in charge of the lesson, what treat to make my ladies. Also if im being everything Dave needs me to be. What debt we have left, how soon can we pay that off. Why am I having pain in these areas and whats causing them. Did I work out enough tonight. What recipes should I use with this weeks produce from Bountiful Baskets. Will I have 14 nursery kids all to myself again on sunday? Thats seriously too many. Are my friends happy, if not what can I do to help them. Wondering if we should save up money to buy a house, or do the whole adoption or fertility thing next. And the list goes on and on. On top of that, my phone is being retarded. Im so greatful dave called in me a brand new phone (at no cost to us) and hopefully ill get it by tuesday. But you know how that can go. Anyways! I wish you all better sleep than im getting. If you have any tricks or tips please leave a comment!

Lately at the Cooks

Since Dave has been working a lot the past few weeks, and I was finishing up school, we havent really been outgoing with the whole social thing. But it was worth it in the end! Look what all that hard work did.

I even got a new wedding ring. I was so sick and tired of just wearing my wedding band and not the whole thing (since it sits way too high, it rips the gloves every time) that I decided it was time for a new one. The first day working with it was wonderful! the glove slided right on.

I will have to post more pictures later from graduation.

Pictures!

Here are some pictures I promissed a while ago.
The first picture is to show you the dummy we practiced our first coronal polishes on.



Here is picture of another dummy getting his bitewing x-rays done.



The next picture is of my best friend Chelsee practicing her coronal polish skills on me.
At first I was nervous, but she did very, very well!



And the last picture is something I want for my birthday next month. (hint, hint) Its a radio with a cd player and an ipod dock. I already have a cheap one, but I always have to carry it back and forth from the kitchen to our bedroom every day. So it would be much easier to have one in the kitchen and one in our room. And the best part of all would be having a cd player again! Because you can only do so much using your dvd player as a cd player.

General Conference & School

Last weekend was general conference for the members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Aka, the LDS faith. It was sooo good to hear from some of the officers of the church and the prophet, President Monson. I loved the talks on family. I also loved President Uchtdorf and Elder Hollands talk.
Since hansom had to work that weekend in WY, I went to my parents home to feel the spirit and be lazy. (that combination is fantastic!!!!) I was bummed when he got that case last minute, because we had plans to go to Bear Lake. Oh well, that for sure means well have to sneak out one weekend and hit up the beach with the fam in the summer.
Speaking of Wyoming. Dave says there are really weird people that live there. On 2 different occasions, someone tried opening his van. Good thing he keeps then locked at all times. I would hate to imagine what could have happened.
School this week was a riot! They are building onto the school, so we had class in Dr. Wibles waiting room. While the teacher was showing us useful ways to find a job, the dentist gave us sticker mustaches and made us put them on and take a class pic. He also read us a story about how important it is to brush and floss your teeth twice a day.
Clinicals were fun, I assisted Dr. Wible on a root canal and 7 sealents all by myself, without the assistant telling me what to do next. Im so proud! One time I gave him a shower too. I guess I squirted the air/water syringe at the most perfect angle on his mirror it got hom in the face. Luckily he was wearing a mask and glasses so he didnt get too drenched. No worries, he got me back. Haha.. Im so sad school is almost over. Its been so much fun. The only bad thing (and it really isnt that big if an issue) is that our extra mulah we would have put in the bank for ourselves goes towards school. So weve been playing poor for the past month and a half. I cant wait to go to school for Dental Hygiene once I get a year or 2 of Dental Assisting under my belt. Most likely at UVU since Weber has a long waiting list. Its too bad we'll have to move, but to tell you the truth ive always wanted to live down that way. Lets just say were enjoying our journey and were looking forward to the future!!

Pet Peeves

Being on these insane meds, I have found that lots of little things that people or I do bother me to no end. Like having to listen to people chew. Or when people are late I just want to scream. Or when I ask a question and dont get a serious direct answer. Eew. It just bugs me.
On another note, school is so much fun. I would recomend them to anyone. Today we had a water fight with the air/water syringe. Its just a blast, and im doing so well. I guess I found my "thing". Also, I need your help. I need to polish teeth and take xrays and practice sealents. So if you need any of that done, or want to help suport me, I would greatly appreciate it. Did I mention that its free? Just leave me a coment and ill call ya. Thanks!!!!!
