Is trust no longer a virtue?

Thursday, October 25, 2007

If you had done something that was so bad that it nearly destroyed your family, caused rifts in relationships, and made people no longer trust you, would you really do it again?

I know I wouldnt. If I knew what I had done had caused so many hurt feelings, and so much heartache, I could NEVER in a million years do it again.


I could never be that selfish.

So after about three monthes of not seeing her, we finally got to visit with Emily for a while on Sunday. She hung out Mantha and I for a few hours in the afternoon. We played a couple games, went and got ice cream, and visited Bevan at the hospital. She is so dang cute. I always forget that little kids actually have personalities, and when I was hanging out with her, all I did was laugh. She's got an amazing sense of humor.

She likes to play this game where I lay down on the floor, and she gets on my legs, and pretends that Im a ride at the carnival. But the game is, she has to tell me her name before she gets on "the ride"...and so she always comes up with these silly names, and if she makes me laugh, she gets to stay on the ride longer. Well, she wanted to play this game on Sunday, and one of the names she came up with was "Butt Crack."..haha...she was like "My first name is Butt. My last name is Crack. Do you have a problem with that?"

And later when we went out to dinner, she also told me that she DIDNT like the name "Addison" but she loved the name "Madison." And so I told her that I didnt like the name Emily, but I LOVED the name "Shmemily". Her response was , "You're not funny."So now, her nickname is Schmemily Buttcrack.I know that this is a lame story, and Im not a good story teller, but she is just so cute & hilarious, I had to share.

Wow, it's been a long time since I have updated this thing. Not a whole lot has been going on at the home front. I bought Doomsday a little sweater now that its starting to get cold. It's soooo freakin cute. We call him "the professor" now. He looks like a stuffy college professor with bad taste in clothing. It's really funny. I'll post a picture soon.

I am finally back in my Fax n' pull position at Sam's. I love it there. No matter how much I sometimes despise the person I work with, it is soooo much better than my previous position. I will just have to learn to bite my tongue so I can stay where I am. My pay went up, and my schedule is great. I only work 7-1 on school days, and 7-3 on Saturdays. I will also get a lot of holidays off that I normally never got.

School is going good as well. I am hating my accounting class, but thats not suprising. All my other classes I pretty much love, and excelling at them, even my management classes. Some of it is very intersting, and I really enjoy reading about it. It's good to wake up, and not think about how much I hate school, and just want to quit, like I did when I was in engineering. Now I wake up and look forward to going to school, and seeing some of my classmates. Bevan's school is going well too. It's actually starting to cost us a lot of money because of all the things he has to have. I never knew police equipment was so dang expensive. He actually is going in for a polygraph on Friday for the IFPD. And then the Chubuck police also want him to test for them. Hopefully something with either of the two will happen pretty soon. I can only be optimistic.

Oh, speaking of school, I had to do some volunteer work for one of my management classes, and I chose to volunteer at Emily's elementary school. I think my first day will be on this Friday, but it will only be for a few hours. Hopefully I will get to see her, but I highly doubt it.
Well, its getting late, and I really need some sleep. I promise to post more soon.
