Not a whole lot has changed in the Palmer household. We have officially been married for five months now (I think Justin may deserve an award for surviving me for that long). I can't even believe how fast time has gone, especially when you're happily married to your best friend! I am still looking for a job. Big Ugh! I had a job interview last week, but it didn't go anywhere and I was pretty bummed out. I really really really want a job, but so far I am having little success. I'm sure that part of the reason is that I am being picky. I have been through SO MANY JOBS in Logan and I just want this job to stick. Honestly, I hate retail. I know that those kind of jobs are just not meant for me. I never last. But who knows. Maybe one day I'll get desperate enough and have to settle for a crummy, low paying, crappy boss, whining people, terrible hours and work conditions, no good for nothing, terrible, horrible job. (I haven't hit that desperate yet...but it may be getting close). In other news Justin and I were called to be Den Leaders in the scouts. We are over the wolves, and only have two boys. So far it's been a fun calling. I can tell it's going to be A LOT OF WORK, but I'm glad I have my hubby for a partner in this exciting new adventure! We still love our apartment, HATE our neighbors. And are still plugging along at the gym the best we can, Justin is having a lot more sucess than I am in that department, but I do my best. Hmmm. That's all I can think of for now. Here's a few media updates:
Good Books:
"The Book Thief", ah, where do I begin? My older sister recommended this book to me. I guess one of the main themes of this book is the power of words, and I find myself at a loss of words at how amazing this book is. Some words that come to mind; Love. Hate. Hitler. Jew. Books. Knowledge. Family. Hope. Death... Read it. You'll love it.
This book is one of those kid kind of adventures. It's funny. Lighthearted. And just plain good writing. I finished it in a day. If you're looking for something that's not so serious, just a fun fast read, then I would recommend this book.
MOVIES:
I have recently seen two movies that were worth passing on.
1. "We Bought a Zoo"- You know how they say you can't judge a book by its cover? Well same goes for movies and titles, and this movie is proof that lame titles can bring about great movies. I was kind of shocked with how much I enjoyed this movie. And the little girl in it! Oh my goodness! She seriously is so adorable and she just makes the entire movie worth watching! You should check it out!
2. "The Vow" - Hmmm. Not exactly sure how I feel about this movie. I think I liked it. It's one of those movies that's worth seeing at least once so that you can judge for yourself ya know? There were some really amazing moments in that movie, I just think I was a little disappointed with the ending, but you know, it's based off a real story so... anyway... watch it and see for yourself!
Well that's all for now. We are currently spending the weekend in Fruit Heights for my sister's birthday and the Utah state bowling tournament. (Justin did pretty good today so send him some good luck vibes for tomorrow!)Happy sunny weekend everyone!
