Cold Sore Woes!!!

I don't know if any of you suffer from cold sores, but I do and I have all of my life. When we moved to California I rarely seemed to get them. When I did it was usually after I had been to Utah visiting my family. Well, we have been here for approximately 8 weeks and I have had 7 of them. And the worst part, I had 3 at one time and I currently have 2. What is the deal?!? I am not sure that I am ready to move back to Utah. And another thing, I haven't had problems with acne since well.......(thinking), I moved to California. Now, I can frequently be refered to as pizza face (it isn't that bad, but I do feel like a teenager again). We will probably get use to it just in time to move back to Fullerton and then we get to adjust to the humidity. Isn't life grand!!! Actually, we are really looking forward to moving back. We weren't sure that there would be that much that we would miss, aside from the people, but there is nothing like being away for awhile to show you how good it really was. See ya all soon!

Well, where do I start? First, I know it has been awhile, a long while. At first we had technical difficulties (my parents computer didn't take our memory stick) and then, I was simply to busy. It has also taken me a while to get familiar with this whole blogging thing again. I have however, enjoyed looking at all of the other blogs.
I thought I was doing so good and getting everything ready to be moved when we came back to move apartments. From the picture it looks good, right!?! Boy, was I wrong! Word of advice to all of those who may find themselves in our same situation, start earlier and get rid of everything you can. Actually in my defense, we had some special circumstances that didn't really work out to my advantage. It was a rough couple of weeks for the girls as they had to entertain themselves while I packed. Thank you to all of those who helped by watching them for me.




Car or SUV????



We have decided that it is time for a bigger vehicle. Unfortunately, it is going to have to wait for at least another year. We were able to fit just about everything that we would need for the 3 mths in our little car. It actually has a really big trunk. We loaded everything up in garbage bags and then sucked all of the air out with the vacuum cleaner. During the drive here (Utah) the bags expanded and formed to the shape of the trunk. It was a little scary when we went to get something out of the car. I thought for sure everything was going to come poping out like those snakes in the cans.
I would also like to quickly thank all of those who helped that weekend with the apartment move. It was a long weekend for Weston and me and it would have been even longer if it weren't for your help. Lindsay and Jessica, thank you so much for all of your help with the cleaning. I will just let you know that thanks to you we got all of our deposit back. THANKS again.
