Oh My! ANOTHER Pig?

-
Last weekend my family got another guinea pig! She is so tiny. She was a lot smaller than the other guinea pigs with her. Her name is Annabel but I always slip and call her Annabeth. She is so cute! She is clever and always finds ways to escape her little home so she can run around the toy room. My brothers call her the lightning pig because she is so fast! I love her a lot!

    It's Anabel the Spanish variant of Anna Belle/Annabelle.

    She is a little cutie pig and super snuggly.

I moved to Tremonton this past weekend, and it came with a lot of changes. It marked the end of an era: no more living with roommates. Instead, it’s the beginning of something new, a step closer to marriage with my fiancé. We spent the past couple of days getting settled in. I unpacked everything in my craft room, spent time with my fiancé and his dog, and spent some time on Sunday relaxing. I saw a rainbow when I left for work this morning and it felt like a little reminder of my awesome weekend.  I can't be in the car without some kind of background noise, and since none of my favorite podcasts post before 7am on Mondays, I queued up the Jeremy Renner memoir I've been listening to. It's about his accident a few years back! I was locked in and cruising at about 60mph down the quiet backcountry road, heading toward the highway. Out of nowhere, a car coming from the opposite direction flashed its headlights at me. I was so confused. Was something wrong with my car? I immedia...

Dating Misadventures: Maturing and Improving My Communication Skills

I follow A LOT of dating accounts on Instagram. I started following them after I realized that I have a lot of deficits in my knowledge about dating. It has been helpful in figuring out what my red flags (icks) are and correcting improper behaviors. As I noted in my last post I am terrible about ending things because I hate to be perceived as mean. I thought about all the guys that have ghosted me on the apps and I decided that I don't want to be that person.  I reached out to dates #11 and #12 today and wrote them heartfelt messages thanking them for the dates we went on but telling them that I don't think we are a match. Both responded right away and thanked me for letting them know. It felt like a relief to communicate and not lead them on. They are both really nice guys and I am grateful that I met them. As I have gone through my brief dating journey I have learned that I don't have to convince myself to like someone just because they like me. I know that the first date...

Dating Misadventures: Dates #11 and #12

I took a short break from dating apps for a few weeks but I am back on the grind. I haven't been on a date since before my Wyoming trip in mid-June but heavens knows I have been talking to a lot of people. I know a lot of people say that dating is a numbers game but this is getting ridiculous. I have had 97 (as of 07/16) matches on Tinder since I redownloaded a week or so ago and I am trying to be proactive about messaging. Out of messaging 97 people I secured 1 date, have had consistent conversations with 7 guys, and been unmatched 5 times.  Actual footage of me clocking into my second full-time job messaging men on dating apps.  Date #11 was so nice. He took me to an ice cream place in Ogden and we walked around downtown while we ate and chatted. I got a chocolate and cherry flavor and he got something minty. It was a nice time. We talked about movies, school, and our cultural backgrounds. He called me out for taking forever to respond to text messages (to be fair, I am usua...
