Crazy Days

So this is my fish "Puppy." He's such a good dog! Today when I came home from church, he was so excited to see me. Just like any ordinary dog, he was wagging his tail and could only think about food. This is us just bonding a little bit.


I went home to celebrate Mikey's 11th birthday and it was so good to see everyone! As Craig and Kelley were leaving, Craig had his case of cold cereal that mom bought and slipped on the ice. We all gasped and wondered out loud to see if he was ok...all except for McKay - as he saw the crushed cereal boxes, he couldn't help but blurt out, "My cereal!! Mom, what about my cereal??" Craig jumped right back with, "Poor nana...poor nana!? What about poor father?"

I drove back home and as I was climbing out into my icy parking lot, thought about Craig...just as I took my first step with this fat bag of clean laundry, I slipped and just about fell; however, the laundry caught my fall before it could happen. Sweet!



I took Jana to school this morning and as I was driving home, there was an exceptionally good song on the radio. I couldn't just go home and leave the song dangling... so I went to the store. It's surprising how many people are not at the store on an early Friday morning. I got these Pistachios. The box was so funny and jump started my day for lots of good laughs.
This was also on Friday I was taking some pictures but my camera is on the fritz. Thanks to my good morning, I only thought it was so funny.



I had a work meeting (at 10 pm...) and won a contest I didn't know I was in. They gave me this awesome prize of laffy taffy. It was probably the best work meeting we've ever had. We played pictionary -boys against girls- my sketch was less than easy to interpret but luckily there are two other interior designers that work there and could easily tell what it was.



So, it's really cold in Logan. I've been craving a good pair of solid, comfy sweatpants. (high ambitions!) I tried on every pair at the bookstore and found just the pair. I couldn't justify buying them, so walked away. The next day, after I talked myself into it, I went back to buy them - but they were gone! I went back for the next week or two until more arrived. The moral of the story...it's worth it to be warm.
P.S. That's my homemade ottoman I'm sitting on. Plenty of blood and sweat (and a few tears) went in to it. (I staple gunned through my finger tip while I was stapling almost the last part) It's worth it though. I'm a fan.



So, did I mention? It's really cold in Logan... My hair was only a smidge wet when I left the house but soon after, It was frozen...



I dropped off my computer to get formatted and re-worked. This is me with the empty case, and do I look worried? I've never had that done before so I didn't know what to expect, but I sure learned a lot at the computer help desk. (They give out fortune cookies. Mine said - "Mac users swear by their computers, PC users swear at their computers"...)(Not that I usually do, but I sure felt like swearing at mine when I opened it up and the desktop was all out of order. Eeek.)
