Act your age!

Boo. I am so tired of this thankless job. I try and work my hardest and it always seems like there are people who honestly SEARCH to try and find something I did wrong with the report I sent them and then are almost disappointed when there isn't anything. I do the report and then they go and ask Amy questions WHILE I AM SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO HER, like I am invisible and pretty much tear down my thought process and it is insulting and demeaning. This is the best job I have had. I have lasted nearly a year without blowing up at someone and right now I am about ready to blow up and walk out. These women are ridicalous. They are 40+ and act like three year olds. I just have never experienced grown women like this and it is almost depressing how poorly they act. Okay, now that I've been able to vent.... Only two more weeks until graduation and I am so excited. Excited to be done with studying and classes and definately clinicals! I am still searching for another job (one in coding) and hoping for the best! Hope you guys are having a better day than me!

A Vacation and a Graduation-What a Celebration!

So we have finally decided on a place to go for "vacation". It isn't Albania. It isn't a cruise. We compromised and are going where we both like going.....West Jordan, Utah! We are going to go visit Heath's family for a little over a week, May 13- May 21. I am just glad we are going anywhere and it will be fun to visit Mom and Dad Breinholt again! We bought our plane tickets today and are very excited about it all. We are going to check out BYU and housing in case Heath gets in for Spring and do lots of other fun things too! It's kind of crazy considering we were just there for Christmas (although that seems ages ago) and because they will actually be coming down here at the beginning on June for Mallory's baby blessing. It will still be fun though! So yay for finally making plans and doing something about them. Although it is not completely finalized yet, but pretty much a sure thing, I will be graduating May 9th with my Associate's Degree in Health Information Technology. I have been fighting feelings lately of my degree not being fufilling enough for me (I honestly wanted a Bachelor's degree in Microbiology) but I know that this was the best path for my family and me and it will be well utilized and open up a lot of good job oppurtunities (when we need them). I guess I just see all these people younger than me getting Bachelor's and it kind of depresses me, but I am happy with this degree and for graduating (because I am sure there were a lot of people that didn't think I ever would :) ) I decided to not go to my graduation because seriously with the number of graduations I have attended under my belt I am just pooped out of any desire to attend another one (including mine!). So we are just going out with my parents to celebrate at a nice restraunt. Well that's the news with us. Hope everyone is having a great week. We love you.

She's Here! Miss Mallory Claire!


Yesterday my sister-in-law had her second little baby girl and she is just as adorable as can be! Her name is Mallory Claire Breinholt and she weighed in at 7 pounds, 9 ounces. I got the priviledge of spending the day at the hospital with them and holding little Mallory. What a treat! Sydney was such a great big sister and sat with mom and held her too. She just loves the new addition and so do we! Heath got to stop by after work and hold her and he did such a good job and I think Mallory loves him! Of course he looks just like Ben so she probably thinks he is her daddy! haha. So it was an amazing day and I am just so proud of my two neices down here and my three nephews and one neice up in Utah! They are all so cute!


After we visited the hospital we were off to go to the Rangers game with Joey, Kira, Spencer, and Davy. Our Ward does this every year where you can get really cheap tickets to a Texas Rangers baseball game. So we headed up there at 5 thinking the traffic was going to be bad (it wasn't). So we were an hour early. I forgot a hair thing and it rained like crazy and my hair was all over the place and then they delayed the game and then after waiting an hour they told us the game was cancelled. Boo! So we got replacement tickets for a game in June and we are going to try it again. Better luck next time!

Still looking for a job I guess....

Well I never heard anything from that job I applied for. I am too busy to really worry about it but it has been at the back of my mind lately. It just really would have been perfect. School is going well. I finally feel like I am able to breath, but only long enough before I have to start my next project or study for my next final. I have just one presentation and two tests left in my HIT courses. My Access (Database) class started right before Spring Break but it is pretty easy. I do a project then take a test afterwards each week. Not too bad.

Well Heath and I have given up on the whole vacation idea completely. I am pretty bummed beacuse it would have been really nice to go somewhere together and enjoy some time off. It was just too expensive to go to Albania and Heath won't go anywhere else. I have been trying to convince him to go on a cruise but it is a no-go. Honestly I am so worn out by everything this semester that I don't even care to fight for it. Maybe when we are 50 and our kids are grown we will be able to go on a trip....haha. That is pretty much life right now. Heath is busy with school and work and doing fun things like going to "band practice". Our friend Joey has this band and Heath goes with him to practice and sings for them. It is pretty cool and Heath LOVES it. I am busy with bowling and trying to catch up on sleep! Hope all of you are doing well! Have a good weekend!
