In the past few months I have been compelled to seriously consider my mortality. I have spent many days searching for the right understanding or motivation to want to fight a difficult battle. I read the stories of so many survivors who faced unimaginable challenges and found a way to do the impossible. In each situation the hero would confess that thoughts and desires of being with their spouse

If I were Oprah, and you were all sitting in my studio right now, you would all be going home with a bottle of OPI's "Leotard Optional" nail polish! You get a bottle! You get a bottle!! You get a bottle!!!I know bright flashy colors are all the rage these days, but after decades of sporting the discreet fingernails of a violinist, I just can't get myself to go anything but subtle.

I am 100% influenced by the price tag on an item. 100%.When shopping, it is not unusual that I will find the most perfect item and then be immediately deterred by the cost of said item. The impact is so great that I will instantly begin to find actual, or imagined, flaws. I can walk away from anything if the price is not right.However, there are few things I find more satisfying than stumbling

I've heard that for every mouse you see in a house, there are 10 you don't see. I've heard something similar about cockroaches. And tonight I'm wondering...do they have a saying like that for gray hair?I know! I know! It's unbelievable that at age 37 I am still (relatively) gray hair free...but the anticipation of it coming to an end is really freaking me out. A couple of things have me on the

Last night I dreamt that I was being forced to go back to High School...it was awful! - I was late - I struggled to find the main office - My first class was P.E. - I didn't have a locker and had to carry my violin with me everywhere - I was still driving the Buick Riviera, complete with all of the family "upgrades" - I was having bad hair - I hated what I was wearing -

Wikipedia says that the year of the dragon is considered the luckiest year in the Chinese zodiac. I'm all for it! I'm open to all of the luck the universe sends my way and I'm going to use my imagination to create a little luck of my own this year!

I failed at church today. My mind thinks I feel better, but my body does not agree. I think I did too much this weekend. So, when it came to church, I slept through most of it. I'll be better next week.

A true friend will compliment you by accident. It won't be intentional, but the sincerity of it's matter-of-fact delivery will be overwhelming. And then, when you mention that it's the nicest thing she could say, she'll seem surprised at your reaction.Yes, a true friend gives the very best compliments!

I have always thought of myself as living without passion. Just staying somewhere in the middle ground between the highs and lows of emotion. Sure, I'm theatrical. I tend to "perform" my stories a bit. I wouldn't be surprised if others thought of me as operating with a wider range of feelings. But in those quiet moments when I am all alone, I've always done what I could to reign myself into the

One of the funniest things I have picked up from my friend Sherrie is a good-natured complisult (an insult hidden in a compliment). When a girlfriend says something really, really stupid, she often replies with a sugary sweet "You're so pretty!!!", Obviously highlighting that the friend isn't showcasing her brilliance and brains.And that sums up the entirety of what I think about pretty. I think

As a continuation of the "Overwhelming Happiness" theme that I have going on, I attended the Brian Regan show tonight at Abravanel Hall (thanks to The Husband). I laughed to tears more than a few times and I expect to suffer from sore cheeks all day tomorrow. I love my new life!

I got the best news this morning. Turns out, things are not at all what I had been told and my future is chock full of hope and optimism!I haven't been shared many details here, but in November 2011, I was diagnosed with a chronic, terminal condition. Preliminary prognosis was bad, bad, bad. I had seen a specialist who determined my case to be too complicated and last week saw a second specialist

The Sunday School lesson was about "Lehi's Dream" found in 1 Nephi chapters 8, 9, 10, 11, 15. In chapter 11, the 'love of God' is referenced 4 times. As I read, I asked myself if I understood what the love of God is? How is it manifest? Can I identify evidence of it in my life? With some thought, I was confident, that I don't have any good answers to those questions and that I have a lot of

Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me! is a weekly NPR radio show and one of my favorite hours of the week. So dang funny! It's an interest I share with my baby brother so when I heard they'd be taping an episode in SLC, I knew it would be an awesome event to go to with my bro. I guess free radio has to get it's funds from somewhere but $100-$200+ tickets, I'll just appreciate it over the airwaves!

I'm not a great mind like Jefferson, and I certainly haven't put the same level of effort into the project, but I definitely have more versions of a similar attempt of my own. I edit my scriptures every time I read them. I highlight verses that catch my attention. I draw lines through verses I find to be distracting. I jot down questions. I scribble out incomplete thoughts. I've even drawn

Tonight I mentioned two of my most favorite viral videos and Salty said she'd never seen them. So, as a little comic relief, here are two videos that I think are worth seeing again...and again...Double Rainbow3 Year Old Crying Over Justin Bieber(I can't embed this video...you'll have to click to go to YouTube...but so worth it)

I was once told that I was lucky to live in a time and place to have bishops and advisors and others who love me and care about me. There are many things about my life that I would liked to have happened differently...but I can never say that I was short-changed when it comes to being loved.

As I juggled health concerns for most of 2011 I allowed myself to become less active in participating in my church community outside of Sunday worship. I have no regrets about giving myself a break, but I also am feeling a push to become more involved. I want to always be in the process of becoming a better person. I want to be more obedient. I want to be more social and learn to rely on others

I think today was a tough day for me. I think I didn't feel well. I think I felt bad enough to spend the entire day (except for a quick car ride to buy a sandwich) in bed...but I'm not entirely sure. See, I spent all that time in bed with my Kindle. I read a story about an interesting character in a fascinating land. I imagined myself as an integral part of the story. And when I read a story (

Blind Dates are one of my favorite fairy tales. They are as imaginary to me as castles and princesses and witches who cast spells...but they are just as intriguing as well. I love the idea of being fixed-up...in fact I am convinced that it's the most likely way to be introduced to a man with potential!

We all met in a Young Single Adult ward when we were in our early 20's, and although the reunions don't happen often enough, when they do happen it is always such a good time.

My hair got no attention today...but it was so worth it!Although it was just a tiny chunk of my day, this morning I had the thrill of spending a few minutes with two of my nieces chatting and blowing out their hair. I'm sure it's a chore that exhausts a mom, but as an auntie, I really did love the chance to play a little beauty parlor with the girls.

All three of my brothers have worked hard and found success. In addition to their generosity towards me, I love seeing their generosity toward my parents this Christmas!

I've been known to laugh to tears. Sometimes it's just a moist eye, other times my oxygen supply is shut down and I lose all control. I never spent a lot of time wondering who I inherited that from, but if asked, I probably would have said my mom.But I was wrong. SO WRONG! Tonight during a game of "Things", my dad laughed so hard that he got the ugly cry! So of course, we all lost it too!I'm sure

I really wish Christmas was tomorrow for two reasons:1.) I love the excitement of watching others open what I've found for them! and,2.) I keep buying stuff. And everytime I buy more stuff, it has to be wrapped. And the more I wrap, the less I love wrapping the way I said I did here.

How do moms just know when their kids (ages 37 and 27) are up to something?!?! How do they, when they don't know a single detail, find a way to be in the right place or ask the right question to suss out a conspiracy? HOW??????????Brett, Kristy and Owen were supposed

Being in Denver, it's hard to have a conversation with a resident that doesn't at least brush past the topic of the City's resident Hero: Tim Tebow. So, of course the SNL sketch below caught my attention. Now, you might not be a football or Bronco's fan, but if you have any kind of feelings regarding the LDS faith, then you should probably watch the entire thing because the final 15 seconds got

As a student of the scriptures, I have an understanding that adversity is part of the human experience and will be for every person who comes to earth. However, in the context of my own adversity, I have been struggling to hold on to that understanding. The following address was recommended to me just last week, but in an act of rebellion, I put off studying the message...so, it was an

I sat with a friend tonight and talked with her about a really tough trial that she has been working through. And while I have been fighting my own struggle these past few weeks, I was humbled to listen to her story. Humbled because for the first time since November 21st, I actually preferred to have my trials over someone else's.For weeks I had convinced myself that I would feel better about my

This evening I shared that my favorite Christmas tradition is the Denney family Christmas Eve. Some of the specifics have morphed over the years...but for the most part the general itinerary is the same and I love it!

When the brothers played football at BYU, I remember watching my mom make her social rounds. She'd reminisce with the alumni from the years when my dad was playing, then she'd catch up with the parents of the football players, then she'd spend a few minutes chatting with cheerleaders, and of course she'd "dish" with the football wives as well. A few times I considered throwing her a birthday

I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, aka The Mormons. There is occasionally some confusion regarding the church's views on polygamy. The short answer is that the church does not approve of polygamy (the long answer can be found here).That said, most members have a pretty healthy sense of humor about the topic and can dish and take jokes on the topic...so I had a good

As a theater junkie, I had the treat of watching a friend's musical in workshop this evening. He's been developing the concept and script for about 3 years and tonight it was presented in a reader's theater format.The raw theater environment was very cool to be a part of, and it totally hit the grungy backstage stuff of which I love to participate.

Men.For years, the hardest thing about Christmas for me, has been shopping for the men in my life. I often blame it on budget restrictions...but with a million dollars, I still wouldn't know what to give!

I've avoided my usual year-in-review journal entries and I haven't even begun to think about the improvements I hope to make this coming year...I guess I'd hoped that ignoring it meant it wouldn't actually happen?

Most of the really great ideas I've had in my life, were born from the really great ideas of others. Most of my understanding about the things that matter most to me, grew from the understanding that someone else first shared with me. Most of the wise choices I have made, were encouraged because of the wisdom of others. I am grateful for the wisdom of others, it has definitely helped me to define

Aside from the fact that I've always hoped to one day grow up and do some acting, I love television and movies for the distraction they offer. It's good to be able to completely forget your own life and jump into someone else's!

Aaaaaaaaaagh! HaaaaaHaaaa!I don't remember the last time I laughed that really awesome consuming laugh....the one when your entire body seizes up on you and you can't breath! In fact, trying to breath only makes actually breathing that much more difficult! And then the thing that was so funny to begin with is only half as funny as the fact that you and your bestie have heavy tears streaming down

Today I rocked the ropes course, zip line, and archery course...I considered sitting out, but did it all anyhow. And when I noticed those who had actually stuck it out with the sitting out, I was glad for courage to try something new at the risk of appearing foolish...if only for a moment!- Posted using BlogPress from my iPhoneLocation:lake arrowhead

such a fun day of travel. we started dang early but were able to fun up and have a fun day in Cali.the single's event is starting out awkward. the event I had imagined in my head is not happening. facility, crowd, and itinerary are definitely different than what I expected...and the biggest obstacle so far is the individual insecurities of 40 single adults.

I did a lot of laundry today and man! am I glad for a room to rent with access to a washer and a dryer in the home. I have really drab memories of apartment living and massive trips to laundromats. So, I guess it's more than just gratitude for modern conveniences...it's also gratitude for easy access to all of the things that make my life soooo easy...even though I take all of them for granted...

Today's Sunday School lesson focused on 1Timothy, 2Timothy, and Titus. These were letters written by Paul to two of his former mission companions. As Christ had lived as an example to Paul, Paul was living as an example to Timothy and Titus. He also counseled them to be mindful of their duty to be an example of the believers:1 Timothy 4:12, "Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of

I am so blessed to live in a diverse community where there are talented men and women who choose to do the things I can't ever imagine doing myself. Aside from the fact that my medical records alone would earn me a quick dismissal, I still can't picture myself serving in the military. There is a level of sacrifice required that I just don't think that I can make. And so I recognize that I am a

WHAT?!?!Someone is actually grateful for unemployment? Crazy, right? Nope, it's true. Especially today.Last night I wrote out an agenda for today. There were specific things that I decided had to be done. I woke up at 7:00 to go to the gym, but felt awful...so I took a nap, then laid in bed and read for two hours, then I lethargically drug my body around the house trying to convince myself to get

3 weeks ago I began following a strict low-carb diet. I've executed my menu with impressive discipline and more enthusiasm than complaints...but today was rough. It's been coming on now for a few days...I'm just not loving my chicken and broccoli this week. So I splurged tonight and indulged in a Double Double protein style, mustard instead, extra pickle and enjoyed every bite! I know this

I remember seeing the Internet for the first time. I had an older roommate attending grad school and she seemed so hip and advanced and some evenings she would get on-line to chat with her old mission buddies and the whole thing seemed wildly mysterious to me. A few short months later, I remember showing some of my friends all of these cool things that you could do and see on the Internet...and

Early this morning my phone rang with the best update from a friend...she's engaged! I might have been groggy when I said hello, but it was an easy transition to a big "YEEEEEHAAAAAW!". It was fun to chat through the details and imagine all of the happy things in her near future.Just a few hours later, Sassy sent a text letting me know that she had completed the GRE and done well. I called her to

Doctrine and Covenants 12:8"And no one can assist in this work except he shall be humble and full of love, having faith, hope, and charity, being temperate in all things, whatsoever shall be entrusted to his care."Recently I have been feeling very humbled. Occasionally I've felt shame for needing to be humbled. But while reading this verse during Sunday School this afternoon, I felt a great sense

When I was 19 years old I met a pretty incredible man and spent the following five years falling head over heels for him...he never spent any time feeling the same way about me. When he finally met and married his match, I was crushed and I wondered what sadness would consume the rest of my life.Well, that was silly. My life was never consumed by sadness and I actually went on to have some pretty

I have taken a few opportunities to talk individually about my mom and my dad, but today I am specifically grateful for the two of them together as a team. I am grateful for how I've been blessed by that team, and how I've been taught by that team.I don't think most kids get to grow up with parents like mine. Parents who like each other, parents who love each other, parents who share the same "

...and third, and fourth, and fifth...I am feeling sad today. But that is not a good start for a gratitude post.A dear friend, Sarah Hays Shurtz, passed away Tuesday night after an 18 month battle against cancer. I am one of the fortunate who got to know and love Sarah in this life. We met as she moved in, a stranger, to the condo at Riverstone. We weren't strangers for long, she and I hit it off

Like I mentioned yesterday, I could use to be more grateful. I feel sorry for myself far more often than I deserve. Often, it is the recognition of my freedom that snaps me out of my funk. I can not even imagine what my life would be like without the freedom with which I have grown-up. Because of the freedom promised by this land, I have been able to worship God as I feel best...I have been able

I have a testimony of God as my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ as my Savior.This testimony has brought me power and peace throughout my life. Because of this knowledge, I find hope when logic would suggest otherwise...I feel love in moments of loneliness...I have direction when life seems topsy-turvy...I strive to be better when no one is looking...I crave understanding and knowledge in every

The popular Thanksgiving trend on Facebook is to post a status update everyday stating something that you are thankful for. My first reaction is cynicism (it's the part of the holiday I dread the most, the going around the table forcing everyone to make some half-hearted declaration)...but...I need to show more gratitude in my life. I've been so consumed with thoughts about what is missing from

You know, my young friends, long before there was "Glee", there was "Fame". I was reminded of my love for the show when I stumbled across a jaw dropping televised performance of "The Kids from Fame", a concert not unlike the jaw dropping "Glee 3D" I saw this summer. Except that "The Kids from Fame" included my idol Janet Jackson (take that Leah Michelle!).As a young kid, with stars in her eyes, I

The dance was organized and crowded and people looked to be having fun. But it was my personal worst. I am a party starter. I don't hesitate to work up a dance floor even if I have to do it alone. But I can't dance anymore...the ticker just won't keep up. I could do the neck up groove, typically reserved for road trips or nervous evening sharing music in a living room while you wait for the boy

I'm officially middle-aged. Checkers at the store have stopped calling me "Miss", they now all call me "Ma'am".I thought I was aging well (and I guess I have?), but I really had hoped that I wouldn't ever really look it to everyone else. The genetics were in my favor!!! What went wrong???
