My dear loved ones,
I am in need of some help.
Some days, I just feel bored out of my mind.
Which then makes me feel sad (birth control or real feelings? I don’t know. both.)
I just wish I had a job.
But in the mean time, while I search, I need some things to keep me busy. I try to run errands as long as possible to fill up my days, I go to the gym, I’ve handed out over a hundred resume’s in 7 different cities, I can’t unpack or make cute creative things for our place cause we don’t have the space, I can’t go shopping, I look at facebook and gReader like 10 times a day, I visit Mom and Dad on the weekends. . . basically, I have run out of ideas to not be idle.
I have a plethora of books to read, I’ve thought maybe I’ll learn Italian or better my Spanish, or maybe I’ll sew myself some clothes (but fabric is just as expensive as buying clothes), maybe I’ll bake some new creations, go to the gym some more . . . What else? Anyone? I need some ideas please.

How are you at writing? You should blog as a job. You could be Rachel the job hunter. Or you could start selling scentsy! Or get a job with Southwest so family can get a discount. OH or this cool resort place called Wolf Lodge.
1) go through your clothes and give them to me.
2) mint.com
3) try new recipes so that you have them mastered by the time you have babies.
4) learn how to sew (http://littlebirdiesecrets.blogspot.com/ is a cute website. she “stipples” with the sewing machine. WARNING: will make you want to craft.”)
1) go through your clothes and give them to me.
2) you could sell scentsy like Pace said.
3) clean and organize your room. More.
4) write in your journal
5) submit resumes to cities about 1.5 hours north of where you live now so you can utilize connections up there and live halfway in between
6) call and chat with your cutest nephew & niece ever.
7) think of people you could serve.
8) attend the temple
9) I agree about the sewing your own clothes being just as expensive as buying.
You can come to my school! This week is a bit crazy with conferences and all but next week we are back on track!
Also, please make me a simple YouTube video demonstrating how to curl one’s hair in a pretty way. I can’t do it!!! If you show me, maybe I can. Like how you did your hair when you were here for Allison’s wedding. Pretty, loose, sexy curls. If I can’t figure it out from the video you’re going to make, you may teach me in person at the end of November. ThankQ.
1) See Joy’s #5.
2) Family History, I am doing it . . . NewFamilySearch awaits!
3) Dad can show you how to do name extractions. Exciting.
4) Sock away memories of these boring days. You will love remembering them when you are a mom.
5) Come and shovel more composted stall shavings.
6) Come and organize another cabinet or closet at my house.
Composted stall shavings? I think I know of a three letter word that starts with p and ends with oo that is a far more efficient method of conveying the meaning :).
Spend a day in the city with me! Come, come!
1. Teach Wyatt how to skateboard
2. Help Donna with random construction things (I am sure she has a ton)
3. Read a book
4. You could always finish sewing together my quilt back from my mia maid days…
1. Go through your clothes and give them to me
LOL (that was a joke..even in my slimmest state, I can’t compete with you Terribilini gals..lol
2. Visit Ella and me in Santa Clara
3. Peruse your local Costco for samples
4. Volunteer at your local church cannery
5. Clip coupons
1) Walk to LA.
yes, i agree with amy. volunteering anywhere is a great way to spend time and it makes you feel better!
Hey Rach! Its Meghan Burt! I feel your pain buddy I haven’t found a job here in Idaho either it is tough out there! When ever I am getting down about not having a job and bored out of my mind I try to volunteer my time somewhere or go visit with neighbors or something just to get my mind off of my situation. Hang in there friend it will get better soon! That’s what I keep telling myself! I miss seeing your smiling face and by the way you were a beautiful bride, I just saw your pictures!
Come hang out with me! All I do all day is chase my kids around. So if you’re in the mood for baby-wrangling, just give me a shout! 🙂 No, seriously. Wanna come over for lunch one of these days?
Thanks Meghan! I’m sorry you’ve had a hard time finding work too! It is really tough out there right now. I hope you guys are loving Idaho!
Christina, I would love to come help wrangle those cute kids of yours anytime! Please call me, I’m mostly available at any time. Like if you feel like going to the grocery store by yourself, just call me. Or you need a nap? Call me. You and Bryce wanna go out? Call me.
