new jobs at work

This last week I got to do my new jobs that I have at work. Monday I was scheduled to just prep weigh, and about 6:25 a.m. Alicia came and asked me to rotate her out on the goodway so she could have her break and work on the schedules for the rest of the week. I said sure. Then about 8:30 Jose,our substitute lead,came and said the guy doing the Tisma was sick and needed to go home. So around 9:00 I went over to the tisma and ran the Tisma for the rest of the day.
Then on Wed. I was scheduled to do the Tray drop. I was a little nervouse because I only had one day of training on the tray drop, but it wasn't bad. After our last break Lynda, my lead, was walking by tray drop and she asked me how I was doing. I told her I was hot, but other than that I was doing fine. She told me good and that she would rather have me up there. Then she started to walk away. All at once she turn around and came back and said you make everyone happy when you are up here. That made me feel good.
I guess Jose was impressed with me as well, because of my willingness to just take over Tisma on Monday. Jose is Matt's Team Lead, but line 3 was down all this week so he was subbing for some of the leads on other lines. He is also impressed with Matt.
Ethel told me yesterday that Jose was singing my praises all day on Monday.

hi

Last Saturday night Matt and I went with his Dad, Susan, and Kaylee(Matt's half sister) to a reception for his cousin. On the way up there Kaylee was talking on her cell phone the whole time. Then on the way back she complained that she had a cramp and was hungry. Just so you know the reception was in Salt Lake. We had to listen to her complain til we got to Lehi and Susan stopped at McDonalds and got her, Matt and I a double cheese burger. Kaylee had hers finished in under a minute, and started complaining again that she was hungry. Then she started to say how beautiful she was and that no one would ever be as beautiful as she is. I couldn't stand it anymore and said that my kids were going to be more beautiful than her because they wouldn't have to go around telling everyone how beautiful they are. Kaylee is the kind of person who is looking in the mirror all the time and saying how gorgeuose she is. And if she can see her reflection she studying herself in it. It drives me crazy. She thinks she is god's gift to the world.
Susan envited us over to their house for dinner on my birthday, but I don't know if I want to go, because Kaylee really hurt my feelings on Sat. I will talk to Matt and see if he wants to go. If he does I guess we will.

It's my birthday on Monday!!! Hip Hip Horray

Today is the start of mine and Matt's five day weekend. I woke up today and said Matt can we go to Wendover on the Fun Bus tonight? He said ask me that in a couple of hours. Then I said, I just want to go some where for my birthday, and he said okay lets go. So we are going to wendover tonight. I'm so excited because it is the seafood buffet on fri. nights, and when we take the fun bus we get a coupon for a free buffet.
I've been trying to get Matt to tell me what we are going to do for my birthday, but he won't tell me. He says he has some things planned, but it is a surprise. Oh well I guess I will find out soon enough won't I. I will let you know how wendover was and what we do for my birthday later.

My Dr. Visit

I had my follow up visit today with the Dr. I was a little nervous because I didn't know what to expect, but it went pretty well. He talked to me for a little while, and then he checked my insisions, and said I was healing very well. He told me that he expected great things from my remaining tube, so that lifted my spirits a bit. He also told me we could start trying again to get pregnant this month, so instead of having to wait three more weeks we start now. He said that the way my tube is it could probably catch the egg that comes out of the left ovary as well as the one that comes out of the right one so we'll hope for that. Thank you to all who have supported me during this time. I love you all. Hopefully in a few months we'll have some news.

Here starts a new year

Last Year was full of lots of ups and downs. More ups than downs I think. Even the downs we could look at and see the up side to them. Friends got divorced, friends moved away, friends came to visit, Family came to visit, we got a dog, then gave him back, Matt lost his job, but got a new one 2 weeks later, we got pregnant, then lost it 2-3 months later (but at least we know we can get pregnant). Looking back on this last year Matt and I have had experiences that have made us grow stronger, and depend more on each other, and that makes our mariage better. What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. I wouldn't trade the experiences We've had for anything. It's been hard, but the experiences have only helped me realize how much I love Matt, and how much he loves me. Here's hoping for a little bit easier year, but not devoid of disappointments or trials. Blessings come after the trial of your FAITH. Happy NEW YEAR!!!!!!
