I'm not spoiled! Well OK I am

I have always said that I'm not spoiled just well loved. Well what can I say. It turns out I am both. My wonderful husband bought me the iPhone 4 which I absolutely love. Then to top it off he bought me the new Schwinn Cruiser that is black with pink and white trim and has a very cute wicker basket at the front of it. Pictures soon to come. I also had a major head ache on Sunday and so he let me sleep in and went and taught my lesson for me in Primary (the funniest part is that, that was also the day the stake primary presidency was at the ward and they sat in on the class for him) Then yesterday I still had that massive headache and it was so bad that I spent the day laying on the living room floor with my kids playing the wii and the computer all day and by 7:00 p.m. when Jake got home and saw that I hadn't moved much all day and I looked ever so lovely he called my daddy and took me to get my neck popped which made today bearable. Like I said I am well loved and a little spoiled but what can you do :)

Jury Duty!

I was called to jury duty for the fourth time this week. However unlike the past three times this time I had the opportunity to serve in a criminal case. The case that I was assigned was a rape. It was very interesting to say the least. Unlike the 8 other jurors that were on the trail I went in thinking this could go either way I wasn't leaning toward guilty or not guilty. The jury consisted of 3 men and 6 women. I was the youngest. In the end we asked each other what our initial thought was before we heard everything, the men and one of the women thought he was guilty going in and then the rest of us didn't have an opinion either way yet. By the end of the first day I still wasn't sure whether the guy was guilty or not. Then on the second day as we heard the rest of the evidence I knew that something had happened how ever the question in my head was whether it was consensual or not whether it happened or not. Then on the last day as we deliberated and got to see the evidence much closer I wasn't convinced that there was with out a doubt that he was guilty and neither was the rest of the jury. After 3 hours of deliberation we came back with the verdict of not guilty. I felt bad for the girl however I wasn't fully convinced that it was unconsensual. I could tell that the girls family wasn't happy with the verdict but I am a firm believer that it is better to set one guilty person free then to send one innocent person to jail. All and all I had a really good experience and would love to serve on a criminal case again. I feel that the justice system really does work and that we are very lucky to live in a place that we are innocent until proven guilty.

The major exspense!

Who knew that getting so close to being finished with school would cost so much. First I dropped $220 for a test (that I better pass) and that's just so I can start student teaching. Then I find out that in order for me to student teach in Jan I have to pay $1000 (still trying to figure out how that works. I pay them to work but then I don't get paid for it.) However if I pay it by May then I get $200 off making it $800. Guess the season tickets for Lagoon and San Fransisco trip are out of the question now.Then when all is said and done I pay another $150 for the last test. All of this then I get called for jury duty which I have to take off work and they pay me $50 for the first day then $11 for any day after that. Can any other exspens come up.
Now taht I am done complaining I do have a wonderful husband taht bought my mom and I floor seat tickets to Reba and George Strait. Even though he doesn't like country he got up at 6 in the morning to wait in the cold so I could have good seats. He is the best.
