Winter....Not Awesome.

Well I made my 26 mile commute to work today in the first bad snow storm of the year. I have not missed the snow one bit. My street in my neighborhood got plowed, but the long stretch of freeway I take to come in was not plowed. This made for some white knuckle driving at about 25 miles per hour. My car is terrible in the snow. So now I have to decide, do I spent $5000 to buy a used SUV to get me back and forth in the winter, or do I spend $1000 to get snow tires and new rims for the car.......Hmmm. Just an FYI for all of you out there low profile or performance sized snow tires are twice the cost of regular tires. I can use the SUV in the summer for camping, where the tires will just be sitting in the garage. Guess I need to weigh the pros and cons. Good grief.

Updates

It has been a while since I have written, but I have been super busy. Things are going good living with my dad, and it has also given me an opportunity to do some fun things this Fall. I went to Boston and saw the changing leaves, which was amazing. I only wish I could go there more and see my friends that I love!! I also went skydiving again!! That was tons of fun. I always enjoy taking people for their first time and seeing how much fun they have. I have decided to get certified. Hopefully I will have the money to do it next year. Working 2 jobs is for the birds....but at least I enjoy both of them. No relationship to speak of......

Here are some pics from the trips. Hope you enjoy and I will blog again soon!!

Fall

I love this time of year!!! Cool days and nights. Smells crisp outside. Mornings are so beautiful and the sunrise and sunsets have more color. The leaves are changing. I get to go see them changing in New England and New York this year and I cant wait. Playing softball is much more fun when I am not swaeting like a fat man.

Not looking forward to winter, but Fall is great!!

The only thing I dont like...

Spending $50 on a freakin Halloween Costume!!

Back up in this..........

Well I am back at my dads and it isnt so bad. All my stuff is in storage, which totally sucks. If I ever need anything that is in there, I will just have to buy a new one. There is no way I will find anything in there let alone get the door open. :) Didnt get to put as many things in my room that I wanted to, I thought the room was bigger. Guess it just seemed that way when I had small furniture and I had neer lived anywhere else. I just have to keep thinking the money I will save will all be worth it. But I love my pops and we get along great, so I will stick it out a year or so. Now just need to decide if I should stay in Utah......Hmmmmm.........

Return for full refund….

Yesterday I was faced with shipping an item back that did not fit. When I ordered it, it said you can return for a full refund if not completely satisfied. Well I went to the UPS Store yesterday to ship it back and found that a pre-paid shipping label was not in the package. It is up to me to pay for the shipping and it has to be tracked. So I sent back a $46.00 item that I paid $8.00 to have shipped to me, paid $11.00 to ship it back, and I will only be re-imbursed for the price of the item. So total that I will be getting back after paying for both shipping charges $27.00. Wow, too bad I wasn’t completely satisfied.

Feeling My Age

I remember back in my early 20's I could party with my friends all night, dance and get rowdy and then get up and go to work or make something of my day the next day. Later 20's it got a little harder to wake up the day after going out and having fun. Now in my early 30's it takes days for me to feel normal again. I threw a bachelorette party for my sister this weekend, drinking, dancing, hangin out all night makes Kasie feel like she is 50. I have seriously pulled every muscle in body, acting like I am not white and can shake my booty with the best of them. I have even pulled the muscles in my armpits, I mean come on how do you do that? I slept for a good portion of the day yesterday, due to the fact that I stayed up past 2am. And to top my day of recovery off, I never left the house or accomplished anything. Good greif!! Man what I wouldnt give to be in my early 20's again.

Updates and Life

Life is weird...one minute you have everything and the next you feel so down. I know alot of people who are going through a rough time right now, including me, and it just isnt fair. Why do bad things happen to good people? I have always wondered that, but never as much as I do right now. I know we all have to keep our heads up and push through, but it is so hard sometimes.

I am getting ready to move back home for a while, and I am having mixed emotions about it. I know it will be a good thing, but it is so hard to go from a big house to a bedroom. But I know in the end it will be a positive thing. I just never thought I would be going home at the age of 32. Hmmm.
I got answers from the doc on my tumors and it was fairly good news. The tumor in the front is benin, and will only have to be removed if it starts causing problems with my teeth. The large tumor in my bone is a bone disease, which may get worse or it may get better, they will just monitor it.
I broke up with my boyfriend a few weeks ago and man oh man I am having a hard time with that. How can 2 people love each other so much, but not get along? That question is killing me.

Hang in there all my good people, it will get better for us all I hope.
