What should i blog about today....

So I haven't blogged in a bit, mostly because I am kinda lazy, but really because I have had nothing to blog about. You know I have a new job...which is sweet! You know I have a new calling in my ward....FHE has actually been really fun. Something you probably don't know is that I am back to square one on dating...What is before square 1? Because I think I am there. I have adopted the new mantra: The goal is not to wait for the right person but to be the right person.
The only problem with that is that I have found the right person...but I just don't know how to make them realize that I am. Advice on getting the man of your dreams...when you don't have pretty much any contact with them? We were going to the same ward years ago, and then a mission, Africa, school, work, moving...and all those things have gotten in the way....I have seen him a few times...but not often enough to feel like I could ask him out....I am working to get to that point. But any ideas would also be welcomed. Anyway.....
So I have been thinking about how awesome this summer is going to be. I am pretty sure I will be working one job...I will have less money, but it will give me more time and i will be happier. I have been thinking about things I want to do with my time and as you know I am all for volunteering....Here are some things I am thinking about doing, service wise, for fun this summer and other things I am thinking about.

• http://www.theroadhome.org/tenideas
• https://secure2.convio.net/sos/site/Ecommerce?store_id=1281&JServSessionIdr004=b4dilmgoh2.app201b
• Taking a road trip to California.
  
• Should I go to school in the spring? Hmmm, contemplate. I am thinking about doing something like this :But the problem is I don't want to pay for school...so I will need to work on that. Also advice on how to not pay for school....because I have no idea where to start.
• I want to makes these shoes
• I want to do this to my dresser, night stand and book shelf in my room. As well as repaint my walls. Purple
• And of course working on getting the man of my dreams.
  

This is going to be an exciting summer. I can feel it!

Selling!

So I went Feather Head Band Crazy...we were watching the 10 commandments on TV, which is like seven million hours long, so I made some more head bands....Here they are!

My beautiful model is my sister Bee, and I modeled some of them too. So why did I make these? Normally I make headbands for fundraisers, presents, and auctions...but I have decided to sell theses....my older sister April, who I started making these for for Christmas, has had some friends request them...so I am selling them! I am not sure of the prices yet, I am thinking $5 for the small ones and $10-12 for the bigger ones, and like $15 for the really fancy ones (like the white metal one). So if you want one let me know! Email me at leahjones.lee@gmail.com...They would be great for prom...and they are so cute to wear with anything!

Update! Woot Woot

So as many of you know from my Facebook up dates...I just finished reading "The Hunger Games" and "Catching Fire" by Suzanne Collins. If you have not read them I suggest that you call me and get my copy of them, or go to the library or really just go buy them, because honestly you are going to need them after you read them....I had a friend at work lend me "The Hunger Games" and I read it all that night and then the next day after work I went and bought it and the 2nd book. I would feel incomplete without them. I also got Bee hooked on them, and now I am not suffering alone, having to wait till Aug. 8th for the 3rd and final book to come out.


Holy Cow, so good read them read them read them! And then tell me what you think! :)

Also....I got a new job! Oh so very happy!
It is a job that I really want and have wanted for a long time....I am now the personal assistant to Kathy Headlee, the founder and CEO of Mothers Without Borders. Yeppie! I started today. I work from 9am to 1pm and then I book it to my other job, and work there until 7pm (we will see how long that lasts)......

Goals

So I know it is way past the time to make new years resolutions, but I never keep those anyway....so I thought I would make some goals that I want to actually try to keep. And If I am going to keep them I have to make myself accountable to someone other than just myself....So here it goes.

Ok it is not much, but they are changes that need to be made and Things I need to work on.

So who even knows about this blog

So I was talking to my sister the other day...and she didn't even know that had this new blog. We were talking about her blog...well about her birthday and how she doesn't have any pictures of her last birthday....and she posted that on her blog and I read it...and she was amazed.
"You read my Blog",
"why yes I do, if you go to my blog there is actually a link to your blog"
" Oh really?! I didn't know that, I haven't been to your blog since you go back from Africa"
"Well I started a new blog"
"Really? I didn't even know you had a new blog"
"Sigh, I do. You should read it sometime."
So hopefully she will come read this a feel bad! Ha ha ha.
Anyway I was going to say something profound in this blog post, but I forgot what it was....
Hmmm, I will think about it.



Ha ha! I remember...well kinda, I have something else to say.

I got a new calling....I am now the co-chair for the FHE council.
I have mixed feelings about this. I never have really gone to FHE, because I am not the biggest fan...I live with my family, so family night is spent, well with my family. But I know the Lord is testing me, hee hee....So pray for me, (whoever reads this).


So this is going to be a random blog post....
But I have also decided that I love, love, love Hockey! I got hooked on it about 2ish years ago when Dani was dating Clayton, they are now married, but Clayton played on a team and I would go with Dani to watch...Then I became friends with Paul another guy on the team, he was also in the singles ward...He is now my one link to hockey...so I am not just a creeper who goes to random games...but I love it. Who watched the US, Canada game yesterday!? Oh I did! Amazing, too bad the US lost, but what a come back, eh, 25 seconds left in the game and they tied it up. Sweet! I love the Olympics...sad that they are over.

Also Tom and Brody have found my celebrity look alike...Well really Nicole found it first....we watched the movie "The Baxter" like 4 months ago and Brody, Tom's best friend went and saw "Shutter Island"...and apparently I look just like Michelle Williams.

She was engaged to Heath Ledger, they have a daughter together.

So you make the call.....
Does it look like me?

I know random Post but just my random thoughts from today....
Oh and some of you who read this, might be thinking who is Tom and Brody?


Tom is a dude that I am causally dating...I think...I don't know. He is a really awesome dude, that I really like. And Brody is his best friend.

So there you go. A glimpse into the mind of Leah Jones.

Job :)

So today was my first day of my new job :) Sweet stuff, I had a nice week and a bit vacation. It was nice. But it was just the perfect amount of time off, I was going a bit crazy...so I am glad I was able to find a job so quickly. So amazingly quick! Wow I am blessed.

It is a good job, I am working in customer service for My E-biz. I am pretty excited! I know a few people who work there. Dani, my best friend. And 2 girls from my home ward. So it is really nice that I know people there. They are really nice people there and I am exited to really start working.

So update for the millions of people who read this ;)....I have been doing good and my dating resolution, yeppie!

I have gone on a few dates with this awesome guy. (thanks Nicole) So I hope it all goes well because I am thinking I like him.

Jobless...

So as you may know, I no longer have the comfort of a job. Mozy is no more. But hey! It could very well be a blessing is disguise. As you know I did not particually like my job. Customers yelling at me all of the time, working way to hard for what I was being paid for...I loved the people I worked with. The Reps and Kayleigh. But now that is over and I don't have to come home tired and worn out from work.
My poppy asked me this morning, "Leah what is it that you really want."
I replied, "I want to be married"
"I know, and it was just not going to happen there. And you really hated that job. So I think this is the Lord saying you can find something better."
So I am going to do that, find something better. Something I love to do. Something that I will enjoy. And something where I am helping people.
Pray for me so I can find that! :)
