I finally did it...

My Becker CPA study materials have been sitting in a box. Waiting for me. For about a month. They actually came before school ended but I told myself I was too busy with school, finals, work, bookbinding, etc etc to even think about it until after vacation. So there they waited until I got home from Puerto Rico. I finally moved them from my house in SLC to my house here in Provo. And they sat on the stairs. Unopened. Still waiting. 


Yesterday I told myself that today was the day. Today I would open my study materials and begin the fun that is studying for the CPA.  I did it! I opened the box and inside were 4 huge study manuals, a box of flashcards weighing about 10 pounds, and a disk to install the program.  I pop the disk into my computer. Turns out it only works for a computer with windows. I have a mac. without windows. 

And that's where the productivity stopped. Luckily there's another laptop and home I can use.  Perhaps I'll give productivity another shot tomorrow but for now, gossip girl is calling my name.

Today I...

  • Gardened. Yes. I gardened! Our stake did a service project up at temple square this morning.  I spent the morning pulling out flowers to make way for the new summer flowers!
  • Picked up my bike from home. Pretty sure it hasn't been used in about 6 years but I'm looking forward to riding it this summer!
  • Soaked up a good hour's worth of Vitamin D. Love it.
  • Saw the movie Confessions of a Shopaholic. If you haven't seen it, I definitely recommend it! Such a cute movie!!
  • Randomly ran into a couple friends I haven't seen for ages! It was so good to see them!
I LOVE SUMMER!

Today I....

Woke up at 5:25 am to go to Todd's spin class. Love, love, LOVE it.



Finally did the immense pile of laundry that has been waiting for me for about a month.  Good thing I have a LOT of clothes...

Went to FHE. Gotta love FHE-especially when you're the mother.


Caught up on all the drama on the Upper East Side with S and B and the rest of the Gossip Girl crew.  Can't wait until next week!

I forgot how nice it is to not be in school....

PS-We've successfully revised our vacation plans. Puerto Rico...here I come!!

Would you go?

So my fam has been planning a trip to Cancun for quite some time.  In light of the recent outbreak of the Swine Flu my parents have made the executive decision to postpone our trip. Sad and sad. So here's my question...


Would you go to Mexico with all of the Swine Flu hooplah that's going on right now?
