I know my post have become few and far apart but I am now a working woman! phew. I decide just to make this post a short update for my family and friends sense I've been so busy to communicate to them in person or however it be done.
I started training 6 weeks ago for Tech Support on an Internet/Phone/TV service called Verizon Fios. Utah doesn't have this AMAZING service yet. It's pretty great. Fastest way to get internet and so on. Training was hard and tedious and more stressful then I expected. We had three test for each service and it was on coding, troubleshooting and things like useful/not useful questions. Not only that but we could only take the test Two times for each test. If we failed the second time we no longer worked for Verizon.
So I can proudly say I passed EACH test the 1st time! Even if there were people in our class that were betting against me. Which is rude. However, I'm smart and I ask a lot of questions. That doesn't mean I'm dumb. Moving on. This last week was our first week on the Phones helping customers. The first day I was really excited and also hipped up on mountain dew. haha It was an alright first day everyone was really nice to me even though I had no clue what I was doing. But by the end of this week it got better and better. I'm still nervous about Sunday when I start my normal hours and also don't have our little "helpers." I think I'll do fine though and catch on to the flow of things.

I'd say so far the hardest part for me is the poor old ladies that have no one to help them and or their husbands just died and all they want is for their TV to work because it's their life support. This is the hardest part because Troubleshooting a Cable issue is very hands on and if they aren't capable of moving the box and unplugging it there isn't much for me to do for them. It's rough when they start crying. I don't ever want to become "used" to this but I know some part of me will have to for this job sense all my calls yesterday were mostly old woman.
On to happier less work related topics. It's been great FINALLY having some kind of Income. Me and Clayton have literally been scrapping away at money sense we got Engaged Last year. And when I say it's been "great" I mean it's nice to FINALLY pay off BILLS and Bank debt... haha No fun toys or clothes for us in the near future. the last 5 months any money we've got has honestly gone to food almost 100% of the time. Bills and overdrafts haven't been our main concern and it's been rough. Luckily we have some great family members in our life helping us tug along. I have NO idea what'd I do without Claytons Grandparents and the help my dads given us. We'd be in a world of hurt.

| This is an Update on Pawz and Scratch! they are best-est of friends now. more to come. |
Now let me get to the topic of this post. cough cough. A Family that PLAYS together STAYS together. I know I posted on Face(tothe)book and said Clayton got me playing Minecraft a week ago. I can proudly admit I've played it nearly EVERYDAY sense I started. I haven't played a game this much sense the Sims came out when I was 12! I'm not saying it's fulfilling or any of that nonsense but it's fun to bring my creative side out after a loooong day of hearing old woman cry.

Not only that but thanksgiving was great and we've had a lot of activity going on. Claytons Friend James who visited about 3 or 4 months ago is here again and we've been enjoying his company. My brother came and stayed a night too which is always fun! On Thanksgiving for my dad. which was Wed. We got some family photos taken and it was really sweet and Clayton kept saying "i can't wait to have more photos of us" which just makes me tingle because it's just so precious. We also got to hang out with his family on Thanksgiving day and play with my little niece Aly she's so tiny but so cute!! and his mom and her boyfriend were there. then Yesterday we had Claytons BFF come over because he just got home from his Mission last week and we all partied it up! So this week has been crazy and so much fun! I love being surrounded by people and I hope that every one of you knows our home is always open!
