Blog Challenge: Days 1, 2, and 3

Day 1: Include a recent picture of yourself and 15 interesting facts about you...

Sadly this is the most recent one that I have.. Lol It was New Years Eve, before going to dinner.

Ok so 15 Interesting Facts.. This is gonna be tough I think

1. Before my shoulder surgery I could just about turn my whole arm around, If I put my hand flat on the table and turned.. Yes it was gross, but I'm actually sad I can't do it anymore lol

2. I've always wanted to pursue my singing career, but never wanted that kind of a lifestyle when it comes to wanting a family

3. I've sang in front of over 5,000 people if not more

4. One of my biggest dream before I die, is to go to Nashville and visit the Grand 'Ol Oprey and stand on that original circle of hard wood floor and sing. I don't care if there's no one there to hear me, I just want to know I've sang on the same spot as all the legends in Country Music.

5. I like every bruise or scar I have from getting hurt myself, falling, running into a broken bike rack with the metal sticking out, getting kicked in the back by my horse, getting kicked in the shins, but I ABSOLUTLY hate my scars from my 2 surgerys. The 4 on my shoulder, and the 3 on my belly from my most recent one. Weird huh?

6. I'm extremely honest, maybe sometimes WAY too honest

7. I know it shouldn't but it BUGS me so bad when people don't like me

8. Even tho it sometimes slows me down from being sick, I've tried not to let my Crohn's Disease run my life

9. I'm now going to try the same thing with my Endometriosis

10. The biggest dream I've ever had was to become a mom

11. I would much rather live in a tiny shack with horses and cows with land in the country, than have a mansion in a big city

12. I've been driving ever since I was about 3 or so.. Started when my dad would have to feed cows and kick the hay outa the bed of the truck. He'd put it in overdrive and I'd steer. I even have some cute pictures of it

13. The best memories I have of when I was a kid was spending time with my dad and grandpa at the ranch. I learned to read by all the signs on the road on the way up, and I had the dash to our Ford Lariat memorized.

14. I was a grandpa's girl and miss him everyday

15. I was named after a Barrel Racer my parents seen at the NFR when my mom was pregnant with me. Tacy Lynn Johnson. If my parents hadn't went that year, my name would be Mallory

Day 2: The meaning behind your blog name...

I came up with it as my signature for text messages, and for some reason it stuck.. Lol Nothin too exciting

Day 3: A picture of you and your friends..

This one was hard, because ever since I've gained weight I absolutly HATE pictures lol.. But here's one from the Gunlock Rodeo last year

After reading thru these I'm a little bit scared to answer them, but I think it will do me some good! I'm glad I came across this on Lisa's page so lets hope I can keep with it for a month! Lol

Have ya ever had one of those days that you just want to sit and cry?

So I'm sitting here bored at work, reading thru everyone's blogs learning about what is going on in everyone's lives, and it just makes me sit here and cry.. I'm so glad that I don't really have anyone around me at work, cuz I'd feel awfully stupid.. Reading about how all the people I went to high school with are married and having babies is really taking a toll on me. I guess I should probably tell you a little why..
Well a couple months ago I started having extreme pain in the lower right side of my abdomen, and into my back. I was having that time of the month, and just figured I was having pretty bad cramps so I didn't think much of it... Well it started getting worse and everyone I talked to told me to call my doctor. Well after 5 phone calls and messages they finally called me back saying I needed to go to an OBGYN. So I made my appointment. Well in the week or so I had to wait I ended up in the ER late one night becuz it got so unbearable I couldn't walk. They did all kind of tests and found nothing wrong. A lady at work told me it sounded to her like endometriosis, so I figured I'd wait to see what the other doctor said. So I finally get into the OBGYN and he does some tests and says he can't seem to find a problem and says it may have to do with my Crohn's disease.. Well I've had Crohn's for years and years, and know exactly what a flare up feels like. This wasn't it. So long story short I made another ER trip, 3 trips to instacare, one to my normal doctor, and finally decided to go to another OBGYN. I was so frustrated getting told that nothing was wrong with me, when I knew there was. I had that time of the month for a month and a half, and was in extreme pain. K well I've never been to medical school, but I know when something isn't right. So I finally got into the new OBGYN on a Friday and told him everything that was going on, and he said it sounded to him like Endometriosis and that he had to do a Diagnostic Laparascopy to be sure. So he hurried and got me scheduled for that coming Wednesday.. I was scared to have to have surgery, but wasn't really that worried about the outcome. I know girls that have it and manage it and are fine.
So Wednesday comes around and I start freaking out.. The doctor said it was a simple procedure, just 2 incisions. One above my pelvic bone and one in my belly button. Cake. So after waiting forever cuz the doctor was running late, and the hospital taking someone into surgery before me I finally get in there and don't remember anything after they started wheeling me outa the room. When I came to I remember the doctor trying to show me pictures of what he had found, and he obviously wasn't listening to how freaking blind I am without my glasses cuz I couldn't see anything but a blur. But he said that he had found a whole mess of it in me. He cautorized it all, but he said that some of it was extremely thick and I'd be pretty sore. He did tell me he had to make another incision on my left hip.. All in all after the fact that I finally made myself get up and walk I, except for some shaky legs and being pretty sore I was fine. Went home and layed down for a while but made sure I'd get up and walk, cuz during the procedure they pump you full of air, and after they can't get it all out. Well that makes for an air bubble that is just floating around in you.. And I can be the first to tell you that IT HURTS! I have no idea how the stupid thing would float to my shoulder, but it did. Walking around was the only thing I could do to get it to float somewhere else and not hurt.
But I was happy he had found the problem and he told me he was going to put me on the depo shot to stop the growth. It totally stops your cycle and makes it so it can't grow. Easy right? Well after that I get told that if I ever want kids I have to seriously start thinking of it in the next little while. He says that when I do they can't be spaced far, because I'll need a hysterectomy in the next few years..
Well that would be just great for someone who is married and all that. Not a 24 year old divorced girl. I've already been terrified of the fact that with my Crohn's I may have some problems getting pregnant when the time comes and now this. I know that this will make it ten times harder to get pregnant and I'm no where close to having that happen.
So here I sit trying to wrap my head around the fact there is a chance I may not be able to have babies when the time is right, and read about everyone else's happy family. I'm not writing this to get sympathy, I know that everyone has troubles and I'll get thru it. I just needed to finally get out my feelings. Its not something I feel like I can just talk to anyone about cuz I get told, "well if its meant to be it will happen" Well thats hard to hear sometimes, I've heard it for 3 1/2 years since getting divorced. I know I don't regret anything in my life because I'm a stronger person, but its hard to think that I woulda been married 6 years this month and already been a mom, and now there's a chance I wont get that.. Its just kind of hard.
Well ok thats enough of the poor me syndrom. It helps to get it out, even if its on my blog for everyone to see. I'm so happy for all of my friends (old high school friends or new) on here that have the cutest little familys. I love reading about the cute things that happen in your life. I hope everyone is well, and I'm sorry that this is not the happiest post, but I finally needed to get out my fears about all of this. Thanks for listening!

Summer time

WOW! There has been so much goin on in the past couple months!! I can't believe it!! This has been a crazy summer!! I guess lets start with a couple months back.. Carson and Rochelle had their baby who is ADORABLE! She's got the chubbiest cheeks! I love her to death! She's getting WAY too big!!

I have been working for Donna Smith at Remax First part time, but recently got a job at Monarch Property Management and they want me full time so I start full time Monday August 1st.. So I'm sad to leave Donna but excited for a new adventure. I think I'm still going to work a couple nights a week for her just after 5 to help her out..

Between working crazy hours and staying busy with friends I've kept myself super busy.. I knew this month would be a little harder on me since on July 19th it had been a year since Lance's accident so I was kinda dreading that, but all in all I did ok.. He was in Denver at Craig Hospital doing a year follow up and they said he's made amazing progress.. And I can see it too.. He's been out camping, fishing, hunting.. Everything he use to do, he just adjusted it so he can still do it.. I'm so happy for him.. I know its been a challenge for all of us, especially him and his family but he's never gave up. I think it has made us all stronger. I admire him for his attitude.. I'm so grateful that I still have him around. I love having him and Carson down the street from me.. I don't always go visit, but its comforting to know if I need something I have my 2 big brothers..

Thats about it with me... Just working and playin and staying super busy.. Here are a few pics to catch up with...

April Already???

Wow times flies! I can't believe its April already!

Well a quick update on whats goin on with me.. And I still need to post pictures from my birthday.. I promise I will!

Well Easter was this past weekend and that was fun.. We went to our usual place on Saturday in Snow Canyon, I think Grandma calls it Hunt's Wash even. But we had our picnic and it was fun to see the family.. I can't believe how many cousins have or are having baby's! CRAZY! I sat and held Erin's lil girl, and she's adorable! It was fun having Lance and his family there.. We were all pretty nervous how gettin his wheelchair in the sand to where we sit was gonna work but dad just turned him around backwards and half drug it while lance used his controls so that was nice to have it so he could sit with us.. I ended up leaving, but everyone else went to go roll Easter Eggs. Lance's family had made a whole bunch and wanted to roll them down the dunes.. So instead of transporting Lance to his truck then back to his chair he just drove it down the road to where he could see all the kids on the dunes.. His chair is motorized so Lane held on to the back and Kelee ran next to him and I followed in my car so people didn't come flyin up on him.. And that worked out pretty well.. Then Sunday was conference so we all got up and went to Carson's for creamed eggs thats another tradition.. So all in all it was a good Easter.. Its nice havin the family down here, I just wish we could convince Tavia into moving down here too.. I would LOVE it..

Well I'm still answering calls at Remax for a couple hours a day, and then workin for Lance a few days a week to clean and organize his house.. But still looking for a full time job..

Other than that just hangin out and havin fun.. I will be sure to post some pictures since I haven't in forever!
