The Time Of My Life

I am finally with my girls after an amazing week with Mr. Incredible! We are set to go watch New Moon together tomorrow and afternoon since Becky absolutely must go back to Idaho tomorrow evening. :( Sad sad day my friends. But at least we will al be together for Christmas and even Mr. Incredible will be there!!!! I said it would be only fair that he come down with me since I went up with him to his parents. His mom was so ecstatic when I asked her if that would be okay. Seriously I think his parents really like me, because really they are letting me take their son whom I really have not known that long at Christmas time. I mean it was fine for me to go up on Thanksgiving since I wasn't going to spend it with my family anyways, but his family actually likes him and wants him there you know? Anyways I am excited because Jess's family is basically my adopted family and they sure are going to put Mr. Incredible to the test hahaha she has older and younger brothers and they are all super protective of the both of us girls. To be fair I gave him warning so he is preparing himself hahaha.

On another note I called Phil and congratulated him on his engagement. I didn't really say anything to him when he told me and I kind of just realized I sort of just disappeared on everyone back home...yeah luckily my boss understands and he didn't fire me or anything. In fact his exact words when I told him where I was were, "Nikki it is about time you had the time of your life." Seriously I think he watched too much Dirty Dancing or something recently! I even called Phil's little lover and told her I would be thrilled to help her out. I mean seriously I know how to throw a wedding together and why not rise above the situation and bestow some kindness upon her. It really isn't all her fault that Phil is a complete moron with how he runs his life.

This past week Mr. Incredible opened my heart and eyes to everything I was shutting myself away from. He helped me let go of my anger towards Phil and he even helped me open up to the possibilities of something more with him.

Ladies we can't let our past entirely dictate how we are going to live today. My bishop once told me that we have to remember but forget. Remember what we learned but forget ( or let go) of what we did to learn something. Well he was talking to me about a sin actually but it applies to everything yeah? Like if you burn your hand on the stove. Remember that hot stoves burn hands, but forget you actually were stupid enough to touch a hot stove. Does that make any sense? If I let the hand burning incident dictate my life I would never want to use a stove for fear of being burned a second time. Instead I remember what I learned and I go on using the stove acting as if I never did get burned. This was also the same Bishop who told me I should prepare for a mission but that he highly doubted I would last a year without getting married. Jokes on you! I lasted the year with a whole half of another! In your face! Okay so I almost got married, but almost doesn't count.

Love, Peace, and Chicken Grease,
Nikki

P.S.- I just have to say that Mr. Incredible and I have yet to have a DTR, but we are still trying to feel the situation out.
