Long Time No Blog!

I really don't have anything to blog about this month. So...to make it easier, I will make lists.

Things that have made me happy this month:

1. Ryan did the dishes today. Thank you hubby!
2. BYU beat SDSU.
3. Spent $10 to get a $20 giftcard for Amazon. And then used it to order a book that took 4 years to come out!
4. Yummy dessert places
5. Pick up orders at Sam's Club. (Thanks Dad!)

Things that have made me sad this month:

1. Stomach flu, cold, and cough all in the same month
2. A family of lightbulbs burning out
3. Running out of toilet paper on a Sunday
4. BYU losing to UNM
5. Ryan's teacher telling him that tigers will be extinct in 30 years.

Ryan started doing research on endangered plants with his teacher. He gets to count plant abortions and ovaries. I didn't even know plants had ovaries. Or abortions. I learn something new every day!

All in all, I can't believe January is almost over! I am excited for Valentine's Day though. It's going to be fun!

Are You a Bad Guy?

It's that time again. Another new semester and another set of classes for Ryan. Ryan really likes his classes and teachers this semester. He's also reading his textbooks for fun. That's a good sign, right?

Yesterday Ryan went to the bookstore to buy his new books. He had a nice big stack in his blue BYU basket. While he was checking out, the lady scanning his books looked up at him curiously, "Are you a bad guy?"

That took Ryan by surprise, "Excuse me?"

"Are you a bad guy?"

That's when Ryan noticed the last two books she scanned.

                                        

Gang Leader for a Day and Reflections on Violence. Oh. OH!

"No, I'm learning how to help bad guys!" he responded.

Let's hope that's true and I didn't marry a criminal in training. What are they teaching at BYU these days?
