Utah Lindy Hop Jam Session

This past weekend was the first ever Utah Lindy Hop Jam session. It took place in various venues in Salt Lake. It included social dancing, and competitions. Josh Ferrer and I entered the 30 Second Showcase. This is a competition where a couple choreographs a 30 second routine and them performs it. Only one other couple entered this competition. They've been dancing for a long time, and I only started in the fall. We figured that they might win. Much to our surprise and delight, Josh and I won!!! We each got a trophy, twenty dollars in cash, and a free pass to go dancing on a Friday night (That usually costs five dollars)! So, I had an excellent weekend, and maybe next year I'll enter some of the other competitions, such as Strictly Lindy, or Lindy Jack and Jills. Thanks for reading my blog.

Pedicures!!

I'm offering to give pedicures for a low price. Only $15. Prices are negotiable. I give a full out treatment, including painted toenails at the end. If any of you are interested, you can contact me by commenting on this post, or at my home phone number.

Still Looking

I'm still looking for a job. If any of you have odd jobs you'd be willing to pay me for you should let me know. I've been doing yardwork for my parents and grandparents.

Sisters

I would also like to say that I have the most beautiful sisters in the world. I was looking at all your blogs, and I love to see your beautiful faces. I'm so grateful to be related to such gorgeous, amazing people. You guys are such good examples to me, and I hope that I can measure up to your lives.

Home Sweet Home

I've moved back home for the summer. Hooray for a free washing machine and free groceries! We even have a vacuum right in the house! This place is heaven. I don't even have to do all the cooking when I want to eat something. These brothers of mine don't know how good they have it. I don't have to pay for utilities either!!! Wow! This place just keeps getting better and better. I'm allowed to have pets here, and I get my own room. Plus some of the people I love most live here. And I'm in a prime location to see all the grandkids. Sigh. It's so great to be back home.

Ear Infection

I've had an ear infection for a few weeks now. I went to the doctor a week ago, and he wrote me out a prescription. The prescription was this little bottle of ear drops. I have to put four drops in my ear three times a day. And I have to let them sit in my ear for five minutes. It's not the most convenient medicine. He also told me to put this mixture of vinegar, rubbing alcohol and water in my ear four times a day. I haven't been as strict with that, and now I'm worried that I won't get better as quickly. I'm thinking that this ear infection is from getting my wisdom teeth out last month. Anyway, I know you all are fascinated by my health issues, and desperately wanted to hear that.

What Just Happened?

So, it is wet outside today. A condition reminiscent of my downstairs bathroom last night at about 11. Kim and Heather and Josh and I were all just sitting in the family room when we heard this big cracking sound, and then the sound of running water. We jumped up and looked in our bathroom, and our toilet had cracked and was leaking all the water onto the floor. Heather had the presence of mind to turn the water off before the toilet filled up again. We called the management and they told us to clean up all the water and they would come and get us a new toilet. Well, we had to use all our towels to dry up all that water. The management is also giving us quarters to wash all our towels. As of right now though, we have all our towels hanging up all over the place. It was pretty exciting, and we're just praying that our upstairs toilet doesn't break, because it is always running. So that was my adventure this week. I hope that any other adventures that I might have this week are of a better nature.
