A New iPhone Case

I have a couple of weaknesses:  eating out, , watching Survivor, being with my children, eating out with my children and coming home and watching Survivor, and my iPhone.

One day after I broke my ankle (over two years ago), John took me to AT&T to buy my first iPhone.  I can't remember much from that time (because of the narcotics), but I remember what a lifesaver my iPhone was.  I'm not sure I could have successfully navigated some of the pain, and the sleepless nights without that sweet piece of technology.

I started with a boring iPhone case that I bought right there at AT&T.  It was orange in honor of my Siedler color.

When I upgraded to an iPhone 4, the girls bought me another orange case for Christmas.

After a while, and after seeing other people with much cooler cases, I started looking around.  I found the coolest website (getuncommon.com) that among other things, sold "Words with Friends" cases.  I ordered the cutest cornflower blue case with owls on it.  It was very Asian looking, but I loved the clean lines and the color.



I thought I couldn't be happier with my iPhone case until I saw another ad from uncommon.com (through Tiny Prints).  A custom case with photos.

It arrived yesterday, and I couldn't be happier.



Sorry about the blurry image, but you get the idea.  I love this case.  I love the photos, I love the color, I love the script.  Seriously, I can't help but smile when I see it.

Of course, I will love it until I see something better, but I don't know....this is a pretty good one, don't you think?

SURPRISE!!

When the pizza guy came to the door last night, here's what John saw: It took a few seconds for John to process who the pizza delivery man was, but when he did, he was incredibly happy (and couldn't stop saying "heeeeyyyyy....".  It was Jared Moran, John's best friend. And me, I just knelt down, right then and there, and began repenting of all the lies that I have told over the last four months, hiding this most amazing surprise :-)  I told Sarah the other day that I was glad to see the light at the end of the falsehood tunnel, because if I kept this up much longer, I was destined to end up in liars' hell... Jared ran the Air Force marathon with John last year.  It was his first marathon, and from what he told us, his last.  However, he called in June and said he was coming again, but I was supposed to keep it a surprise from John.  I'm not sure what changed his mind, but we sure are glad he did.  John hates runnings marathons alone, and ther...

Getting Hannie Home

Knowing that Hannah was leaving on her mission to Ecuador February 7, I needed to get Hannie home.  To her credit, she took care of mostly everything out in Utah, including finding someone to buy her apartment contract.  When I got there, it was all about driving her around so she could take care of last minute things (selling back her books, mailing back a rented book, turning in her work stuff at the library), but really it was about some good old girl time too.  Eating at some of Provo's great eateries and buying cupcakes. Kitty, sampling some of the goods. Ah cupcakes.  Sweet Tooth Fairy bakery has become a tradition every time I visit Utah.  Seriously, they sell the most delicious cupcakes and cookies there.  It made sense to me to buy eight cupcakes for the two of us for a three day drive home.  Little did I know... One of the things that I have done too many times to count now is helping my college-age kids move in and out of their apart...

A Quick Trip to Mackinac Island

 Allow me a pity party for a paragraph.  As much as John is earning buckets of money for us and for our retirement, his weekend calls have been infringing on our time together.  Like I said, it's a complete pity party, because my logical mind reminds me that I should be happy he's making so much money, but my heart feels rather lonely at times as I reminisce about trips we have taken that we don't have time to take again. I love John.  I don't need him around all the time, but I find that the best quality time with him is when he doesn't have other distractions like work, and call, and hospital credentialing. Anyway, I guess that was two paragraphs, and I don't need to take it any further than that, because I don't want the body of this blog post to be about me and my loneliness. I've been wanting to go to Mackinac Island for two years now (I can hardly even believe that it's been that long since I was there).  With Lake Michigan getting colder and t...
