So if y'all will scroll down the page to my bedspread and take a second to reminisce on it's FORMER beauty..........Now that that is over, let me take a minute to tell you the horrifying story of a bedspread that was once beautiful!! But first, let me start at the beginning...
It all started with the fact that one morning I woke up to find that I had about 30 bites all up both sides of my torso! (GROSS, I know. You weren't the one that had them.) I thought nothing of them other than it sucks to have been bitten 30 times. They didn't itch, they hurt. Well, I had just spent the last couple of nights at my brothers house, so I figured that something got me there. When I came back home, everyone thought that it was BED BUGS!! EEW!
I guess bed bugs transfer from house to house, so that meant that since I didn't find out that I had bites on me until after I got home, I had already transferred them to my room (soon to be my whole house!). So I had to totally decontaminate my room by removing EVERYTHING and washing what I could. (Now here's were the bedspread comes into the story.)
So washing everything included my bedspread. I made sure to read the tag before washing it like any smart person that cared about their bedspread would do (and if you ever washed something without looking at the tag, I'm not calling you dumb...ok maybe a little. :D) I did just what it said: "Wash with like colors, no bleach, in front load washer and dryer." I even washed it ALONE!
Well about X amount of hours later when it was done, I pulled it out...AND IT WAS BLUE!! BLUE!! So I had my mom call the company and tell them what happened. It's not like ti was really my fault either, I did everything it said to do. So the lady on the phone said they would see if they had any in stock and send me a new one, and if not then I just wanted my money back.
So about 2 weeks later, I got a package at the front door. YAY! I can finally sleep with an actual bedspread instead of quilt that was too little for my bed! I excitedly open the box, only to find...they sent me a KING size bedspread, now mind you I have a TWIN! Tell me please how that's supposed to work?!?!?
To be continued, my mom still hasn't called them back yet! :D

Reality Check!
Wow, sorry it's been so long! I tell ya, I am really bad at these posts. It's probably because nothing too exciting has happened. Well, I don't know how to start so I'm just going to throw some things out there!
XOXOXOXO
- I am the Drill Team Manager at Uintah High! So far it has been fun. I haven't done a ton of things, but I help the coach, Whitney, and the assistant coach, Mickenzie, with things that they need! I get to do things with the team, and I even get warm-ups with my name on it! Haha, I just don't dance, which is good, cause I'm not sure that would be a pretty sight! :D
- I think I'm liking school alright. It isn't my favorite, but I think it's because I don't know a ton of people, and I'm really bad at making friends, so that doesn't help! But I do miss PG High. I am taking fun classes though. I'm in Designer Quilting and I'm making the cutest quilt you have ever seen (not to toot my own horn, I'm just being honest, honesty is the best policy! LOL) I'll definitely have to post pictures when it's done. I am also taking Interior Design, and that's been really fun.
- I really LOVE being out here with my family. I am a really family oriented person, so being close to my brothers out here really makes me happy. Even though I do miss my mom and my sister terribly, I do still see them!
- I really like working for my brother, Rick. He has his own business called "ACME Truck Line, Inc." I am kinda like his (and his wife, Holly's) personal assistant. I do whatever they need me to do (business related or not). I really enjoy it.
- I went on a date this past Friday night with a guy named Thomas. We doubled with my niece Crysta and her date, Charley. I had fun and everything, but let's just say there probably won't be another one. :D
XOXOXOXO
