F is for FINALLY!

It has been so long since my last post, one might think this will be full of new, fun, exciting news! So, let me apologize in advance: I am boring. My life is pretty "steady", as Dad puts it! haha! So here is what is "going on" with me right now!I am still working at Nordstrom, and I really love it! I feel like I am really good at what I do, and therefore each day at work is really enjoyable! (Finally!) I am not in school right now, but I will be in just over a week. I am taking all art history and religion courses, and NO math or science! (Finally!) Dave is engaged to the perfect woman! Erin is kind, spiritual, funny, gorgeous, and totally appreciates everything Dave has to offer! (Finally!) I am not dating anyone right now, and honestly, not really dating at all. But for once, that doesn't make me feel bad about myself! (Finally!) And last, this may seem weird, but my skin looks so good! haha! I have struggled for YEARS with my problematic skin (which Mom knows better than anyone!), and recently I have felt so confident and pretty! (FINALLY!!!!) A couple weeks ago, I was talking to a customer about the BareMinerals skincare line(which is what has helped me so much) and the customer looked at me and asked if I was using it. I felt awful, because I knew if I said yes, she wouldn't believe that it was good, because MY skin isn't great. But I said yes, because it was the truth, and she said, "well, your skin looks beautiful!" and she bought the whole line! I wanted to cry! It was maybe the first time anyone has ever said that to me. (Finally!)

So, even though my life is boring, steady, consistent, etc, it has been full of great things and lots of Finally's!

This was fun to read!!It's time for one for my famous "one minute talks" :-) I have to correct your last sentence. Being steady and consistent does NOT equal boring.I've learned that one of the greatest compliments that can be paid to someone is to know them as being "steady". This is you! I admire in ways, that are hard to put into words, the great things you do and what you have learned thus far in your life. You are spiritually mature,a hard worker, wise and intelligent(to be both is rare), kind and Christ-like in your relationships with people, extremely fun to be around, and "tied" for being the best daughter in the world! Oh, and I forgot, you are the worlds best "goofy face maker" while barrelling down Splash Mountain:-)Thanks for all you shared in your blog,(finally!!) Only 49 days til your birthday and Disneyland!!! From a proud and loving father
