Now for the juicy stuff... I have seemed to disappear from the blogging world, writing that is. I am still reading all your's daily! Life has been well life. I dont think I am abnormal with my challenges and trials, it just seems that sometimes too much is dumped down my gutters. I have a way of writing my spills so that people interpret them as sunshine.


I do not know where that ability has gone, for the past 6 weeks I have had numerous blog posts in my mind that have never maid it to the world wide web. For fear they would come across as negative, pessimistic and ungreatful! Now the reason they would seem that way is because... they were!



Here is a brief rundown of the Reisinger Clan...



I was one of 8 chosen out of 350 people to start the Psychiatric Nursing Program in June!!!!
I have to complete 36 weeks of Biology in 8 weeks... 2 more weeks to go
Ty has more tests with the specialists coming up.
Rylie is a genuine diva.
Oliver speaks as if he is a native of Portugal.
Todd cannot drive for 6 months because of seizures.
Olivia smiles more.
I am still working full time.
I am blonde not brown!
jTodd still has NO status in Canada.
We have large bills from the Hospital ER visit.

I am also lacking in patience and optimism. Lacking is an understatement! I am trying, not hard, but trying to work on this, I seem to have pessimistic goggles on and let me tell you they affect all.

TA TA FOR NOW, PICS TO COME LATER, I MUST FINISH MY ESSAY ON , THE CAUSES OF MALE INFERTILITY

Awe, gee, I hope things can look up for you soon. It's no fun when things just start piling up on you like that. You're in my prayers that you can get through this and continue to come out on top.

This post Made.my.day!!!! We have so many good memories to look back on. Lots of them involved sleepovers in bedrooms in basements. Geese! How would we have survived those awkward years without all of our amazing peeps?!
I am so glad you found time to do a little post. Because, seriously I think we all still need each other like we did back then... Only you don't really have to clean a bathroom in order to spend the day with Jeff Arrowsmith:)

Oh my! I am simultaneously laughing and cringing at my dorkiness. Good times! Spice girls, crushes, do you remember dollars in locker? I never would have remembered the Tooele boys names. So glad you moved into that blue house down the street so we could make all these memories.

Things I have learned living in Draper... fun loving, sometimes goofy girls mature into lovely ladies and wonderful Moms who I am honored to know and watch as they struggle and learn and grow into powerful women who are going to leave a mark on this world!
I am glad that our paths crossed and hope they will many times in the future.

Oh Chelsea! Things were never quite the same after you moved! I remember several double dates and burning the "nice" breakfast we tried to make...so much fun! There was never a dull moment with you around girl! Miss you and hope things get better soon!

Audrey said...

Chelsea, oh how I miss and love you. The Draper days were full of good times and fun. It seemes as if all those things were just yesterday. How time flys. Thanks for making my morning! We may have been dorks but we sure had a good time! Keep your chin up and remember who you are. Chelsea the Wonder Woman. Congrats on getting chosen to go to nursing school, you will be awsome!

Lindsay said...

I seriously love this! These are all great memories! I love you and miss you my dear Chelsea!!!

P.S. One of my other fond memories is watching you make Mac & Cheese without measuring and adding WAY too much milk. lol I actually like my Mac & Cheese soupy now and think of you every time I make it. ;)
