ARIZONA!

i drove down with my mama last week. we couldn't figure out how to get the water on, so we stayed in a hotel for the first night. the next day we called the city and they showed up in only a few minutes to get our water going.

the previous owners had HORRIBLE taste. the entire house is either pale orange or puke-blue. it's awful! so i'm repainting the entire thing. it's a lovely house, and it's in a lovely neighborhood, it just needs some new color and decor.
don't have internet yet.
i've been going to mcdonalds every other day to use their wifi. i also feel obligated to buy something when i spend time here - i'm also getting fat. hah.
it's HOT here.
it's already in the 90's BEFORE sunrise. then it's 115 - 120 during the day. yeesh.
but it'll be glorious the rest of the year.
the new ward is nice. very nice. i felt very welcomed the second i walked into the building on sunday.
oh, and somehow people find things out about me very quickly.
one of the sisters said she knew just by looking at me that i play piano. (weird?????)
i'm doing a musical number on sunday. haha, my records aren't even in yet.
dan is still in ut for his job. then he'll be here in a couple weeks. set up his office in one of the bedrooms and work from home!

so excited for everything.
school starts soon.
life starts soon.
