I'm back & dumber than ever!

We are finally back from our Thanksgiving cruise!!
It really was such a blast!! So many fun memories & pictures. 
I truly have the greatest grandparents in the world! This is the 2nd cruise they have taken us on!
I'm so glad Jer got to come this time. So fun to have a buddy.
Since I have been home I have become a slave to laundry.
I mean how can just 2 people have this many dirty clothes!!!
(I guess I should have done all the laundry before we left on our trip...)
So for the past 2 days I have been doing loads & loads of dirty clothes when I started to see water leaking on the floor. I told Jeremy when he came home from work so he pulled the washer & dryer out to reveal a huge puddle of blue gunk.. I tell Jer that the blue gunk smells similar to our laundry detergent. Jer searches & can't quite figure out where the problem is & where all the blue liquid is coming from. I explain to him I think it is our laundry detergent leaking.
Jer: "That's not possible because it's mixed in with the water so it wouldn't be this thick."
Me: "Well it doesn't go directly in the water, it filters through the top so it must get clogged there before going into the water?"
Jer: "Where are you dumping the detergent?"
Me: "Right there where it goes."
Jer: "Oh... so where it says Liquid Bleach only?"
Me: Ya... 
(thinking... what does that mean...thinking.. hmmmm..)
Me: "Oh I guess that's only for bleach & our detergent is not totally liquid..."
Jer: "How long have you been putting it there?"
Me: "Since we got married.."

Wow people could I be any dumber? I swear I know how to read.. I just used to have a washing machine where you put the liquid in the top... Or I think I did?
Anyways I got to climb behind our washer & clean all the blue gunk up.
It was SO fun. Jer just laughed at me.
New Years resolution: Get more smarter or something...
Stay tuned posts on cruise coming up!

What is the point of blogging..

So I find myself having a hard time thinking of things to blog about.. Not because my life is boring (I'm having a good day), but because sometimes I don't see the point. For some reason I have lost interest in taking pictures which is unbelievable to me. Some weekends I could take over 100 pictures. Maybe because I was single and I loved posting on facebook all the cool things I was doing. Lame I know but I've matured so much from then. Any who, I think those are always entertaining but I can't seem to find anything I would like to have a picture of?

So that leaves me more with writing/typing things. I know some people say they use blogging as a journal. I can't seem to put myself in that category seeing as I haven't written in my journal since 2008 and I can write faster then I can type anyways.

So I guess ultimately I am having writer's block. Although I have opinions, ideas, and things going on in my life I never feel the need or want to blog about them. So I am going to keep trying to post something, even if it's only about not having anything to post. Just so you know I'm trying. :)

This should be interesting...


So to get started I guess I better explain a little bit about myself and why on earth I got talked into starting a blog. So recently I was married and was all but thrilled to be moving with my new love to sunny California. Somewhere I had always dreamed of living. Lucky me right? Well let's just say something went wrong... and I mean horribly wrong. Something changed with Jeremy's (husband) work to where we would need to live on site. Now your thinking where could that be, Arizona, New York, maybe even stuck back in Utah? Think again. Think of somewhere with no grass instead dirt, and I mean LOTS of dirt, old people, annoying spanish and no Walmart. Thats right I said not even Walmart or Mcdonalds for that matter. Mexico. This is where I live M E X I C O. Now you might be thinking how much you loved your last vacation to Mexico. Well this my friend is no where near that beautiful vacation spot your dreaming of. San Felipe the place I live that I'm sure you have never heard of may be the most awful, boring, ugly place you have ever seen. It is undeveloped, 99% is covered in dirt, there may be only about 15 restaurants within the ten mile radius of the whole city. It happens to be only filled with retired folks and pure breed mexicans. And my only way out of this place is a 4 hour drive to California. Oh and did I mention I get car sick? I could go on and on but I will try to keep this as positive as possible. (You will soon find out what a huge pessimist I am:)) So I know your thinking come on it can't be that bad, which I get told all the time. But I assure you it is. So I started this blog as requests of friends to give them a little insight of the random things that entertain me in a day to keep me from going crazy. Such things as starting to talk to my dog Diesel, out of sheer boredom. That's why I named my blog Diesel in bloom. Enjoy!
