Montana....

Well here i go again! I started a blog a few days ago for my jewelry, and in the past i had considered doing a personal blog, but always thought it was more for my married friends! But Lyndsie reasured me today that it was ok...to go ahead and be a blogger! So here i am, ready to basically tell the world what i'm up to!
I'll give a brief overview from high school till now...and then i can keep moving forward! :)
After graduation in 2004, I moved to Pocatello, in pursuit of a nursing degree at idaho state university. I spend a year there, decided Poky just wasn't for me and moved home, i had 3 jobs taht summer, and lots of time to think. By the end of July I had made the total and complete decision to move to Missoula, MT. Lyndsie and i took a road trip up here so i could find a job, by the end of the weekend i had a job and a place to live...and a few new friends. I moved to Montana September 9, 2005...i filled my moms car and set out on a road trip of my own...i eventually started school at the University of Montana pursuing an accounting degree...yeah i know i was NUTS! I might eventually finish, but i think there is something better out there for me...
For the past four years i have lived and worked in Missoula or the surrounding area, its had its share of great times and bad times, there's been heartache, but there has been double the amount of laughing until my stomach hurt too!
Montana has taught me a lot, about friends, about boys (since i lived with a few i probably learned more about them than i wanted =] ), its taught me how to stand up for what i believe in...even if i wasn't setting the perfect example, and its taught me a lot about life in general...I've had some wonderful life experiences in this beautiful place, some that i wouldn't mind sending back...but they've helped me grow and become the person i am today...
Now it looks like life is going to take another bend in the road and send me down another path...i can't wait to see where that will take me!

in the mean time take a minute to check out my new business adventure and hobby :) classiccowgirlbling.blogspot.com In 2007 my sister Lindsay made it to the National Junior High School Rodeo Finals in Gallup, New Mexico; i got to make the trip down there with her and all i wanted while i was there was some turquoise jewelry...i couldn't afford to buy any already made...so we bought some beads...and i taught myself how to string them, since then it was just supposed to be a fun hobby, but i got to where i was ordering so much that i had to start selling it so i could fund my "hobby" :)
ps...kiely made it this last summer, and has a great chance at making it again next summer, so proud of both of my sisters!
