Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.

Yesterday, I got some pretty crappy news. My bosses were in a meeting for half the day yesterday. I was excluded, of course. Well, after every one had gone home, except for my main boss and myself, he comes to tell me what this meeting was all about. I had a gut-feeling that my job was in danger. He tells me that our founder wants to shut down our office to save money. He wants us to transfer all the way to Las Vegas. I immediately said, "I have to drive all the way to Vegas everyday!?" He stopped me short and said, "Except you." I knew it. I knew I was being laid off. I haven't even been here that long. Well, come to find out, I still have my job, for now. But I'm going to be working all alone for a month straight. As an "experiment." With new hours. So, now I have to wake up at 5:30 every morning instead of 6:30. So not looking forward to that. But, that's not even the worst part. My new duties will be to have people sign a paper, saying they came in trying to apply, and hand them a map to the other office. Then on Mondays, I have to alphabetize the time cards so they can be picked up on Tuesdays. The phones will be forwarded to the other office as well. I am seriously considering picking up a can of Mace. Just in case. So, if all goes "well" then they will transfer offices. They already have two admins over there. I'm the newest employee, and the youngest, so, I'll be the first to go. I'm already looking for a new job. This is a really sucky situation. But I'm going to try and make the best of it.

The people who made me who I am today.

This girl. Her name is Jessi. She really is my best friend. We've been through soo much together. And never been in one fight. Not even an argument. I love her. She's been here for me literally through thick and thin. She was my friend when I was 'bad' and she was still 'good'. Even when I went to DT. She would come visit me at night through my window just to talk to me for an hour. She went to my first doctor appointment when I was pregnant with Kaiden. She even held my hand while I was being a wuss when I had to get my blood drawn. I can't think of another time I sweated so much! haha She is the literally only person who knows ALL of my secrets. And I know she'll keep them. Because she loves me as much as I love her.



This is Sam. She is stunning. She always makes me laugh and listens to my pathetic problems! Haha I didn't like her when I first met her, I don't know why! I love her now. I have a lot of respect for her. Her life is completely headed in the right direction. She's so responsible for being so young. She was definitely brought up right. She is kind of a freak about her dogs, but they are cute! ;) I think she is way too amazing to worry about as much as she does! Her and Jessi are best friends as well. So when we all three hang out together (which is how it usually is) I feel like we're unstoppable. We really are sweet girls, we just get a little crazy when we get together! :D



This is my aunt Rachel. I've known her for almost 10 years now. Even when she first came into my life, I knew I'd love her forever. She's an amazing person, an awesome mom, and a great friend. My uncle made a great choice. :) I'm proud to call her family. She's exactly who I want to be. Even when I was younger, I wanted to be just like her. She's fun, caring, and just gorgeous. She's good to her husband, close with her mom, and a well rounded person. She can look back at her teenage years and think, "Wow I was crazy! But I had a great time." She lived her teenage years just as crazy as I did. Lots of great memories. And now that she's grown and settled down, she lives an amazing life. The life I one day hope to have. She helped shape me and accepted me for who I am since day one. I love her. I always will. ♥

This is Leslie. I married into her family. She is an awesome person. She is so much fun to be around. Very down to earth. She definitely keeps me level-headed. If anything ever happened between me and Dust, I know we'd still be friends. :) She helps me with things I have a hard time talking about. She gives great advice, and I always take it. I remember the first time I met her. I thought for sure she didn't like me. She claims she had nothing against me, but you should have seen the way she looked at me! Haha, if she even did! Then we started hitting the gym together. And mow we're best friends! We have a great time together. She tells you how it is. You can tell just by looking at her that she's special. I definitely would be lost without her. She's going to make a great mom.

This is Lacy, Dustin's sister. She has always been so nice to me, ever since the first day we met. The first day I went up to Gunnison to meet Dustin's family, we got snowed in. We were only supposed to stay a few hours. But the weather was too dangerous to be driving in. So, she gave me some of her pajamas to sleep in and clothes to wear the next day! I used to be soo jealous of her! She's so pretty and thin, and fun! I didn't like for her and Dustin to hang out. Silly, I know. But it took me a while to realize they were brother and sister! Haha. I hate to even admit that. :) She was kind of quiet at first, but now we can talk about most everything. I loved working with her. She was so fun to be around. I will ALWAYS be there when she needs me. She'll always be my sister.

This is Britney. She is so cute! She is probably the most caring person I know. She always wants to help out! I haven't even known her that long, but she has definitely been a good friend to me. She's fun to hang with and great to talk to! She's very realistic and I love her for that! We both just kind of found ourselves in the Piep family, and even if that ever changes, I know we'd still be friends. She deserves the very best. And I hope she gets it. She's going to make an amazing mom. And I know our children will be best friends. :)
