Since I was young, I have always known this: Life damages us, every one. We can't escape that damage.
But now, I am also leaning this: We can be mended. We mend each other.

It has been brought to my attention....

That I have not updated my blog in a bit. So what's new with us? Busy, busy, busy. We began school this month and we are both working so we rarely have a free moment anymore. Tim is taking: Trig, Spanish, World Religions, and Creative writing, all over the Internet. He also quit his job with Icon Payment Solutions as we are pretty certain they are going under (since they sort had trouble paying their employees :( ) and is now working for his brother Will doing construction until something better comes along.


I am also in school (paying crazy out of state tuition...although that is another topic) I am taking: Spanish, World Religions, Human Anatomy and Physiology + Lab and Social Welfare...and I am still working at Expresscare. So I stay pretty busy.


Chauncey is good. She does not bark out the window so much, now that we have barricaded it with stuff. Also she doesn't bark at other dogs at all when she is outside. But there is this one ugly poodle that ALWAYS barks at Chauncey and that dogs owner ALWAYS glares at me. Like it is my fault the woman's dog is psychotic!!!


On the left is a picture of Tim that has caused quite the stir on facebook. People seem to think that Tim has really let himself go in the hair department. Let me put these false rumors to bed. This photo was taken at Mom Jarman's house. Tim's sister Lydia is sitting behind him, draping her gorgeous long brown hair onto my husbands head.

The picture to right is of me and Chauncey. Just living the dream.


Love and Blessings to all..

Tim and Jess

How do you spend your Saturdays?

I guess you know that your an old married couple when you spend the weekend lounging about. Usually on Saturdays Tim and I do something outside the house because we spend very little time together during the week. Last Saturday we were just exhausted....so we slept really late (not gonna lie it was noon when we woke up) we had lunch plans with a friend, but she cancelled so we just hung out at the house. We intended to go out that night but nothing sounded appealing so Tim suggested we go to Wal Mart and get a new movie and candy and have movie night at our place.








































I suppose being an old married gal isn't so bad if I get to spend my nights with my two favorite people (well one person and one dog). Aren't they adorable. I love them so much!



How lucky am I to have such a wonderful husband? So lucky is the answer.

Am I still an American?






















Above the Capital building in Frankfort, KY.





The picture to the left is Cumberland Falls.



















The picture to the right is a river in Louisville, KY









Apparently I am no longer a resident of this beautiful state. Tears of saddness.




One might assume that means I am now a resident of Arizona. Well you would be wrong. I am a girl without a state....Does that mean that I am not an American?

Wisdom Teeth



I had my wisdom teeth taken out last Friday. The photo on the left is a pretty accurate description of what my face looked like. Cute, eh? It was not actually that bad. The worst part is the liquid/soft food diet that I'm on...still. I can eat mostly...I just cannot chew on the sides of my mouth and since it takes forever to eat using my front teeth...I'm still on the liquid/soft food diet. Yum!

Words from an apostle.....



"If for a while the harder you try, the harder it gets, take heart. So it has been with the best people who ever lived."

"Don't do anything stupid." (I like this one.)

"Love. Healing. Help. Hope. The power of Christ to counter all troubles in all times-including the end of times. That is the safe harbor that God wants from us in personal or public days of despair. That is the message with which the Book of Mormon begins, and that is the message with which it ends, calling all to 'come unto Christ, and be perfected in Him.' Moroni 10:32

Good Reads

Sometimes I just need to be reminded of a few things. I bought this book a couple years ago, read it and loved it. Then I put it away and have not really given it much thought...until recently. I picked it up again and am again reading it. I recommend it to anyone who has hit kind of a slump in life, who feels a little depressed and cannot seem to pick themselves up.
