It's spring break at Utah Valley University (since Wednesday), so I decided to work four 10-hour days and have today off. Monday and Tuesday were very long, going into work earlier than usual and then a class in the evening. Wednesday and Thursday were long days at work, but at least I didn't have class (I don't have class on Thursdays anyway). It was a long 4 days, but now I have today off. It felt nice to sleep in. I want to get some of my homework done today, but I'm a little slow getting it started. I hate writing papers (even one-page letters for my Business Communications class). I'm hoping to get some homework done today so I have less to do tomorrow.
We're going to the temple this evening with Ryan & Rebecca. Tomorrow we're hoping to go shopping with my parents for a really nice big flat-screen TV. They decided to buy a really nice present for all their kids. They bought Ryan & Rebecca a Clavinova (I think that's what it's called?... a keyboard-piano thing). Ryan & Rebecca spent some out of their own pocket since it was more than what my parents helped them with. John & Melissa got a little camcorder. We've decided to get a big TV and possibly spend more than what my parents are helping with so we can get a bigger and nicer one. We'll see how much more we spend. I hate spending money but it's sometimes nice getting "toys". :-)

What are you planning to do with the one you have now? Just wondering. :)
We'll put that one in our bedroom, then have our two 19-inch TV's from when we were single in our computer room and junk/exercise room. Yes, we have too many TV's! :-)
The way you said it made it seem like the parents bought us something and THEN decided to spend a lot on everyone else. They actually decided that they'd spend a lot on everyone before they helped us get the piano. :) We spent quite a bit out of our pocket for the Clavinova digital piano, so they didn't cover the whole cost. Oh well. We've enjoyed having a piano! I really hate spending money too, but sometimes you have to (like our recent purchase of a new desktop computer for Ryan's schooling). It IS fun to get new "toys"! :)
Oh... and I'm excited to go to the temple this evening with you! It's been too long for me and Ryan!
There, I made some changes in the 2nd paragraph. Does that meet your approval, Becca? :-)
Much better! :)
You didn't leave a link on our names .... :'(
