Wedding Craze

Good week. Got back from Arizona and have been very busy. One of my good friends is getting engaged this week. She is uber stressed but its fun trying to help her figure out what to do with everything. She will be getting married right after Christmas in Seattle. We went to look at wedding dresses this week and when I called the store later that day a different girl answered. I told her my name and she started freaking out. I wasn't entirely sure what was going on, but then she told me her name and I started freaking out. It was Callie, whom I was best friends with from 1st grade on until she moved to Utah after 8th grade. I was shocked to have randomly found her at a wedding dress shop in Provo!

Lonna's Wedding

So I got to go home for Lonna and Shane's wedding. It was fantastic to see them and they were both soo happy! I was really glad that Daniel came with me. We left Thursday night and stayed in Vegas with his cousin. I woke up the next morning not feeling to well but decided to drive anyway. While on the freeway all hell broke lose and I got very ill (enough said). Dan had to drive the entire way stopping about every hour to let me be sick out the car door on the side of the road. It was pretty much one of the worst drives ever, except for the fact that Dan was so nice to me the entire time I was not feeling well. He would try and hold my hand as I was heaving out the window and I could not believe that he was being so sweet.

He met the entire family, which I was not entirely anticipating, he even met my grandma. The first thing Brett said when he saw Dan was "Big man!" I don't know if Brett is not used to meeting people taller than himself or what. We went to lunch with my Dad and Marilyn which I think went well. When we got back to the house my Dad let Dan drive his corvette, which I think Daniel was more than happy to do. I don't think he even cared that he would have to be alone with my Dad. Brave boy, I think I would be kinda freaked about to be alone in a car with his mom or dad.

All in all we had a very good trip.

Things are looking up

So guess what, I am finally starting to feel better. I have not been able to say that in a long time. I had some major things to figure out these past few weeks and I finally decided to stop the things that I felt were hurting me. I got some good advice and went with it. It took me breaking down to realize how unhealthy my life had become. I am still shocked how easily I have transitioned. I get tempted at times to fall back into what was comfortable, but I am already feeling so much better about life, so I would be insane to go back.

Its good to have people who encourage you to do what is healthy for you and remind you that you were not happy with the way things were. It also helps that I have new relationships right now that are helping me adjust. My new roommates are pretty much amazing. I already knew Morgy but we are getting closer as I get the chance to talk to her, and Ali and Vanessa are both breathes of fresh air to the mundane life that exists in Provo. I am not as anxious about what is going on and am doing much better at just doing my own thing a lot of the time until something comes up. Dan is also a new addition that has been really helpful. We have been friends for awhile now but I never really gave him a chance because of where I was at in my life. I am having fun with him, which is the most important thing for me right now.

No new nightmares to report!
