Rules for my son...

I have found one of my new favorite blogs and its called 'A Soldiers Perspective' he has great insight and I mostly agree with everything he says. I was reading on his blog today and saw a website that he had made a post about and it I couldn't help but to read it, and I LOVED it so I wanted to also share the link and here it is...

The loss of a dear friend...

Let me start by saying, NO nobody died! Even though it would probably be an easier situation if they had. Death is final for those left behind, this however is very different! A friend is someone that always brings you up (or at least tries) they don't stab you in the back, they get excited with you and always want the best for you! They don't lie to you or try to make you feel stupid to impress someone else and they are ALWAYS there for you! So what do you do when someone that used to be your friend has become 100% opposite from all of those things? I've tried so many times to ignore the stupid things that have been said or done but its to the point where being friends with this person is not really worth my time anymore, which is really sad to me! The hard part is what to do... I refuse to lower my standards of friendship to act the same way as this person, don't get me wrong, I've thought of all the cold hearted bitchy things I could do to maybe 'open thier eyes' but thats not reall who I am, so.. Do I erase this person from my life and get rid of any and all of the pictures and memories or do I just move on and keep the image that we are still friends? I guess I'll just try to do the mature thing... whatever that is.

Memorial Day

Its nice to live in a place where you can drive 20 miles and then hike 5 and feel like your in a completely different place! I spent Monday morning hiking, its nice to get away and be by yourself in the middle of the outdoors sometimes so you can clear your brain and think! I love the outdoors and I was so grateful to be able to enjoy them over the holiday weekend! I've got WAY more pictures but I haven't even had the chance to look at them yet, so I'll have to post them later!

Utah Drivers...

So I found this AWESOME article today about the worst drivers in the USA and guess what Utah is NOT one of them! So there!! I finally have something to back up my claims that when you venture out of Utah the drivers normally get worse. I know that there are those people that will always say 'NO Utah drivers are the worst' just because the are stubborn or don't know better, either way here is the proof!
