Random Ramblings

Well, after being hounded by my dear sister to start my own blog, I thought I'd give it a shot...although, besides my two sisters, who would want to read this is beyond me, but hey, it's your time. So, if you read this, add me to your favorites!
Yesterday we were given a challenge in Relief Society (or so I hear, since I don't go to R.S. any more...but they are pretty good at keeping us primary people in the loop). The challenge was to not complain, gossip, talk bad about people, etc. for 21 days. That way it will become a habit, and our world will be a better place. Not a bad idea, eh. Well, I admit that I've had to change my bracelet over (oh, they gave us plastic bracelets to remind us, and we move them to the other hand if we mess us), but I'm determined to give this a good go. We could all be a little nicer, right?
Dans classes started up again today. Boy, I didn't realize it at the time, but it was sure nice having him home to help with the kids. He came home for lunch and I almost starting crying when he left because I was in a rotten mood (yep, that's when my bracelet got switched) and the kids were all screaming and crying. He definietly does more than I give him credit for.
I started a baby-sitting job today. I am watching my friends little girl every day (M-F) for two hours in the morning. She wasn't extremely happy today, but I'm guessing it will get better when she gets used to us and a new schedule. And if it doens't, hey, it's only two hours.

See that large goose egg on my little man's head? Yeah, it's a doozy, i know. He got the bruise from, I think, hitting his head on his crib...then not so long later Dan said he hit his head on the corner of something and that is where the bump came from. I'm happy to report that he doesn't have a bump today though, just the bruise.
Well, since I'm new to this blogging stuff, let me know how to do it, and leave lots of comments.

Tarah, When did you get the internet? I thought you were 'net challenged still. . .

Nice blog by the way. Have you looked at mine?

Yay! You have joined the ranks of us blogophiles. :) Poor Caden. What doesn't kill them will make us stronger though, right?

Ouch! Must be like biting your cheek or tongue. Once you do it you keep doing it.

Nice Blog! One request though. I have a difficult time reading white on black. It looks nice, but my eyes are giving me fits with the negative look.

I'm so excited! More blogs to read...you'll have to be careful what you post about your babysitting job though...you never know what the girl's mom might do if she finds out you hate it.

Tarah! I'm so glad you're blogging now! I don't (other than on Facebook and Myspace), but I'm glad you do so I can catch up with you and your life! We haven't had any contact in forever! I miss you!
Your little boy is so so cute, those eyes are to die for!

Yay! And I feel so honored to be mentioned in the first sentence of the new blog.

I'm so sad for Caden!

Kirsten said...

I'm so excited you have a blog. I happened upon it from Beth's blog. I think they're a ton of fun to see what's going on with your friends.

Chelle said...

Well, well... little miss Tarah. It's good to hear from you! Your little boy is so cute. I had no idea he was that big already. Post some pictures of Kember sometime!

Tarah, I'm excited you're blogging! One more thing to do to waste time at work (not that I ever waste time at work). Check out my blog if you haven't already.

P.S. to Collin--I'd love to read your blog, but it says I have to be invited. Any chance I can get access to it? I'd love to keep up with what your family is doing.
