Morning!

The work week began, ever so nicely yesterday. Whatver. Everyone I talked to yesterday was having a day full of chaos. Mine was not too much different. It wasn't a bad day, just had a difficult time getting everything in to the day that needed doing. Taking a 2 hour nap with Connie didn't help me accomplish things, but it was definatly nice to have. I am hope that today will be nice a quiet. We will see.

Good Day

The day was a pretty good one. Got up at the wonderful time of 3:30am just so I could take the dog's for a walk. It was actually a nice walk. Not too cool out this morning. It felt like it was around 70 degrees out. I am crazy trying to walk two Lab's at the same time but it is getting easier. Got home and took a quick shower threw on some clothes and headed off to work.

Work was interesting. Michelle is now in town so she kind of hovered over the class today becaus Jerimiah had already done work toward the day of training. It was a tense enviorment to say the least. I think there was jealousy amoung trainers. I totally took advantage of the situation and hassled both with all sorts of legal liability questions. I was basically a pest all day, but they were all valid questions. We got paychecks today. Anyday that someone gives you money has to be a good day. Final got my check routed to the right bank account so I was even that much more happy.

After work I dash down to Smith's and picked up the Florida pictures. I only let them sit there for a month before I remembered them at a time I had actual money to pick them up. Most of the pictures came out the one's that didn't are the one's of the dog's. The Japanese Steak House pictures didn't turn out either but I will live. It was fun to look at them. Went and showed them to my dad and had a good time telling all the stories. The sunset pictures all turned out well. I would say I am going to scan them and post them for you all to see, but we all know I would be lying. That would require me to hook the scanner back up and that is way to much work for my tired body to do.

Weekend has officially begun. Got to run pick up a baby shower gift for the security guard at work. Anyone know where I can find Suzie Q baby stuff? I don't think they make that anymore do they? She's done the whole baby room up in that little yellow duck and friends theme, so she really want's stuff that matches. Maybe I will just buy her some sort of new baby kit with power and crap in it. The shower in Saturday afternoon so I should run out tonight and find something. Tomorrow night my cousin is having a combined Mother-Son birthday party for her and Braxtyn. Not sure about going to that since I was never formally asked if I wanted to attend. Nice huh? Might just go out and hit the town instead. Sunday I plan on doing a bit of yard work and chatting with my cuz in Australia. Should be a good weekend.

Nevermind the walk.

It's way to hot to walk. I am just going to get up a half hour earlier tomorrow and walk them. I am turning into a heat wimp.

Alright now that everyone else has done the stupid little "get to know ya" form I figured I would put in my version as well. Whether you like it or not here ya go.

WORK!

Finally, we actually did some work and training today. We have my old trainer stepping in until the trainer from Florida arrives. I was thinking that in and of itself would make the day another one of our sit and surf day's, but amazingly enough we actually covered a bunch of new stuff. This I am sure only happened because the BOSS was there but at least it happened. I am happy.

After work I went to the golf corse to pound a few balls out on to the driving range. I discovered a few things while doing this. 1) My shoulder is much better than I thought it would be. 2) I have a bad slice. 3) Never go to a golf course at 2:00 in the afternoon wearing dark colored jeans, it's way to hot out. Thankfully I was dressed casual today so only the jeans were dark. By the time I finished off a small bucket of balls I was drenched. Glad I didn't get the big bucket. Tomorrow I am taking shorts to change into after work.

Just in case anyone wants to know, you can't donate platelets until 6 months after a surjury. It can interfere with the healing process. Not sure how since all my wounds are healed but appearently it can. I can't donate blood at all and now they don't want my platelets. Should I ever try to be nice and helpful to society again? Probably since I only have to wait until September to make a platelet donation, but it's tempting to say "screw you". Since the platelets go to hemophiliac's and other's who have problems with their clotting factor's, and I just don't like the idea of someone bleeding to death when it can be prevented, I will be in the ARUP office on September 20th trying to do my part to help. Janet, Brad, and Connie will be donating this Sunday. I am discovering Janet is a bit on the proactive side. I guess I could be a bit more active. I complain enough about not ever having anything to do so her suggesting the platelet thing was probably a good thing even if I can't donate right now.

Well, going to go walk the dog's and gather up the crap for work tomorrow so I can get to bed at a reasonable hour.

Better day!

Much better day so far. Took two ambien last night and actually got some good sleep. Woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed, watch it Connie and Dee, ready to go at 4:00 this morning. I did have some really bazaar deams. Anytime Chet and Shane walk into a dream wearing wolf costumes you have to begin to wonder if you are over drugged.

I did get my car washed finally last night. I have been putting that off for way too long. Now if I manage to get it vacuumed out tonight I will be a very happy camper.

As you can tell we are once again working ever so diligently to train hard here at work. My high hopes of actually getting some training in were dashed when we found out the Trainer from Florida had to postpone her flight in due to a family issue and therefore the BIG boss is going to catchup on her work and not be here today. ARGH!!! I hate feeling useless.

Another Day...

Will someone remind me to work on this stupid page? It's about as boring as hell on a hot day. Nothing ever changing. Same thing is happening in my life to. You think there might be a pattern emerging? I need to start focusing on a few things more things in life. I also need to start getting to bed at a decent hour. Man was I exhaused this morning. Good thing we aren't doing anything at work. Found out today that the BIG boss is going to be sitting in on the next part of our training. Wonder if we will actually begin training. I sit at a desk for 7 and a half hours a day surfing Everquest sites and emailing random people all day. How, do you think, this allows me to learn a blasted thing? I am getting real tired of not doing anything. I am not one who enjoys just sitting around when I know I can and should be doing something productive. I was also wondering why, out of 4 classes, it's our's she has to join? I guess I should be happy. At least, in theory, we will begin training again. I won't have to sit around anymore. Right? Oh, and while I am ranting, what's up with female hormones? Why is it that a woman can burst in to tears just because she is forced to play all day? Shouldn't I have been thrilled with the opportunity to play? Why can't I get something resembling balance in my life? Why isn't someone calling me with all the answers? I know there is some sort of method to all this madness but I will be damned if I can find it. When someone gets the answers will you please call me and let me know? I don't think I can handle another day like today. I know my trainer was a bit confused when I couldn't stop bawling. I don't think I should put her through another day like today either.

Summer!

Loving the summertime. I know officially it's not summer, but when the sun is up and the snowcones and popcicles are plentiful, who can tell the difference? Yesterday I took Abbie, Dexter, and Brutus to the dog park. They had the swimming pools out and you would have thought Abbie had died and gone to heaven. It's a good thing I don't have an allergy to mud. I think she thinks she's part fish. I need to go buy her a wading pool of her own. Dexter decided to let the other dogs pick on him and Brutus went around trying to defend him. I am beginning to think Dexter is a big priss. He let a bassett hound ruff him up. Abbie would have bit the dog's nose off if he'd have tried any of that with her. Dexter is going to have to undergo some serious work if he's going to father Abbie's puppies. Otherwise I think she might hurt him the first time he tries anything.

Last night was a good night. Connie took Dee, Jennifer and me out to dinner and a movie. Jennifer got sloshed. It's amazing what no food, six hours of sun and a glass or three of champagne will do to a body. I have a strong feeling Jen won't be getting out of bed real early today.

I on the other hand am thinking of taking Abbie fishing. It's a bit late in the day already but I would be going up so that she can have fun and I can complain about another bad day fishing.

Happy Mothers Day!

A beautiful Mother's Day for all to enjoy. Time for us all to take a moment and thank our Mother's for all they have done. The simple fact that we are able to be part of this world and experience all it has to offer, should give us a moment's pause and a thought to the woman who made us part of the experience of life.

I was talking with my Mother the other day and she said she was not sure that she had been a very good mom. I thought about this for about 2 milliseconds and told her she was horribly wrong with that thought. The lives of her children may not have turned out the way she had envisioned them to, but all of her children are not only intelligent and smart they love fully and unconditionally those who are part of their lives. They do not judge other's based upon looks or lifestyle. They have the ability to take some of the worst things life can throw at them, gain experience and knowledge and still come out on top and looking better. The world may cut and scar them but they turn the scars into an art in and of itself and still try their best to hold no malice toward the one's who inflicted the injuries. They will give all and ask little in return. When their family or friend's are threatened they become a force to be reckoned with and never has one of them had to stand alone in a fight. When one is in danger of falling the other's immediately form a chain to rescue them. My Mother did not raise fools. We would never try to cheat someone. We do not go around willy-nilly in the world. We have strong family values. We love, laugh, and cry openly and honestly. She not only gave knowledge, she allowed us to go out and use it, learning and growing in ways no other child I grew up with was allowed to experience. Because of our Mother we are incredible people. We may pass through this world never known by all but the one's who do meet and know us do not forget us. We are who we are because of our own choices. Not because of choices forced upon us. I could not have asked for a better Mom. I love her. I care for her. I would do anything for her.

Thank you Mom for allowing me to be me. For good or bad I am who I am because I was taught to be strong in my convictions and true to my heart. Thank you for coming to my aid when I asked for help yet all the while allowing me to learn and grow, love and hurt. Thank you for standing by, while I made choices that may not have been the best but were still mine to be made, and not judging me for having made them.

I Love You Mom!

Florida

I have to say that the time I spent in Florida was really kind of, well, interestingly nice? I landed in Florida around 9:00pm. After 8 hour in the air the only thing I really wanted was a nice soft bed. What I got was nice, soft chicken wings. Jason saw fit to introduce me to the local Hooter's wait staff. I have to admit the wings are pretty good even if the locals have no idea what hot-n-spicy is. I really didn't mind the view of the Orlando Airport either. Really, I was watching the planes the whole time. I did discover that they have this strange thing called alcohol in the beer down there. Unfortunately I found this out after I had downed an entire pitcher by myself. Strange how the legs get a mind of their own. After Hooter's we hit a club in the area. Now, I enjoy Industrial music, I can even manage to listen to Gothic now and again, but to throw both at me in large sums after long plane flights and way too much to drink, and I go into sensory overload. I wasn't sure but I think that if I had half way sober I might have had sense enough to be scared. Since I wasn't, I ended up overly amused. I still think that they were pumping nox or helium through the air-conditioning but since I can't prove that I will just say the air had that, just~sucked~way~too~much~helium~from~my~little~brother's~ballon, feel to it. That and people were talking really fast and I know that beer tends to make things slow down not speed up.

I managed to get even with Jason the next day though. I wake up a bit early usually, since I was in Florida the sun was kind enough to match my wake up hour perfectly, and as Connie will tell you all, the sun is up...I'm up. I got a nice and early start to the day. I got fresh squeezed grapefruit juice for the grapefruit off the tree in his Mom's backyard. Then I forced Jason on to a bike to take a ride around the area and see some of the local nature parks. We got to go up and over the one bump in the entire state. There were no hills there so riding was a cakewalk for me. The lower altitude helped out quite a bit also. We went hiking around in a couple of different areas. It was actually neat. I got some cool pictures of the one real tree in the state. It's a Cyprus tree the size of my Japanese Maple in the back yard but it's a big deal for the Floridian's. Then even have it in a park of it's own. In all fairness the tree is 3500 years old. Kinda cool huh? After that we headed back to his parents and I took a dip in the pool. Jason took a nap. Once I decided Jason had rested enough I made him get up and we took the dog for a walk. Came back. Ate dinner with the parent's then headed out for Jason's apartment down in Lakeland. They call it that cause there are so many little lakes :).

The next morning we were off and running more. Got the tour of the apartment complex, which is a city in and of it's self. They have 3 little lakes and river running through the complex. You can go fishing in the lake right outside your back door if you want. It was awesome. During the night's you can walk around listening to cricket's whirl (they don't chirp in Florida) and bullfrog's croak. It was a really nice atmosphere.

Friday we drove up to Tallahassee to see our friends and my Florida namesake (you know I can't be all bad if people name there kid's after me). It was great to finally meet Sarah and Theo in person. Little Taryn Grace is absolutely beautiful. Big brown eyes. She kind reminds me of the Pepsi girl. She could almost be her double. Anyway, we spent the whole weekend with them. Saturday I went out fishing with "my boy's". I caught a nice sunburn in that one area of my back I couldn't reach to put the sunscreen on and a bunch of blue gills. They call then pan fish down there. I think that's because you have to fill an entire pan for it to equal one fish. I still had a blast out on the river though. That night we went to an oyster bar in St. Mark's Bay. The food was excellent and the company even better. I had grouper for the first time. Jason has oysters for the first time. They gave us a side of lima beans with our meal. Oh my, these things were the size of quarters. I have come to the conclusion the stuff we get here is definitely not ripe if they can get that big. Oh and they tasted incredible and I hate lima bean's. Sunday was Sarah's birthday so Theo and I got up early and went to the store to get the stuff to make Sarah breakfast in bed. She of course woke up and ruined the in bed part of the whole thing, but what are you going to do about that? After stuffing our face's we got dressed and went down to the local Fun Dome. Played video games, bashed each other in bumper boats, made fools of ourselves on the minigolf course, and raced around a formula one track. All in all it was great. That night we took Sarah to dinner at a Japanese Steak House, ironically called the Japanese Steak House then out for fondue. I went to bed happy and full.

Monday we left Tallahassee and headed down the coast to Crystal Water's near Tampa in the Gulf. I had no idea that those pictures of the Gulf were real. I thought they had been doctored to look that blue. I was magnificent. The water was as warm as bath water. Except for the incident of having strange thing's swim out from under my feet it was great. I got to go the local aquarium and see all sorts of things. It was small but cute. They are sorely under funded there. It was kinda sad to see that, but the staff was really nice and uber sweet. We would have watched the sun set over the gulf but the clouds got in the way. It was still a nice attempt at it though.

Tuesday Jason had to go back to work so I spent the day checking out things on my own and put things together so I could fly out on Wednesday. I really enjoyed the day. Walked around the complex chasing strange bugs with two sets of wings. One set for the front half of the body one set for the back half. At first I thought every fly in the state was mating but I was wrong, they really have two sets of wings. Went fishing in the lakes and laid out by the pool. That night we went in to Lakeland city. It's frightening to know that there is a city that shut's down more completely than Salt Lake at night. That place was all locked up by 6:00pm except for the city bar, it stays open until 11:00pm. Scary huh? Jason showed me around and showed me just what it is an Ordinance Enforcer in Florida does. They put baskets in rain gutters to catch garbage and keep it out of the local lakes. It really is a good idea and I suppose someone has to do it. Jason seems to really like his job. He's really big into the environment so it appears to be perfect for him.

Wednesday we got up at 3:00am Utah time to get me back up to the Orlando Airport in time for my flight. I got to see an incredible sunrise on the drive up. The Orlando Airport is one I could stand to live in. They have 44 shops, 40 restaurants, and a hotel all in the main terminal area. I really could live there. The one time Airport Security stopped me it was because they saw my piece of granite I was bringing home on the x-ray and didn't know what it was until I showed them. I still carried it on the plane with me and it could have been a nice weapon if they had thought about it at all. It's heavy and it's in the shape of a triangle so it had a point. I guess because I was this sweet and innocent looking lady from Utah they figured they were ok. I should have smuggled out that pot. Hindsight.

The flight home was not too bad. Southwest had us stretching and doing flight aerobics so we wouldn't get cramped up on our way to Phoenix. Then on the flight from Phoenix to Salt Lake I got to fly with a bunch of Mormon Women on their way to a Conference in Provo. I was happy. Anytime I get to be around beautiful women I am happy. I was also real excited to be going home so they got the city-by-city announcement of location on the flight.

I am not sure what happened after the bags were claimed and food was put in my tummy, but somehow I made it home, got myself unpacked, talked to my brother for 45 minutes, fed the animals, and crashed hard. I did manage to work the next morning right on time.

I had a great time. Learned to be grateful for and tolerate Wayne on a whole new level. Experienced a whole new culture. Enjoyed the sun, the beach, and the babes I mean baby alligator's (which I never saw even one of outside a cage). Grew a bit closer to Jason (not close enough for his liking). Just had fun.

Why do we allow stupid people to procreate?

I finally got that call. Yes the one that takes all my skills and knowledge and puts them to the test.

Caller: Are you a Supervisor?
Me: Yes, how can I help you today?
Caller: Your technichan doesn't know how to do his job! I can't get on the internet or check my email! Now I want to know why?
Me: Ok sir let's see if there are any outages in your area and check you account status. No problems in your area and your account standing looks good. What are the lights on your modem doing right now?
Caller: There are no lights on my modem?
Me: None? No power light?
Caller: NO!
Me: Sir do you have power in your home?
Caller: Yes.
Me: Is the modem plugged into a power strip?
Caller: Yes.
Me: Is the power strip on?
Caller: Yes. The little light on the power strip is lit up.
Me: Ok, is the power plug to the modem plugged into the back of the modem securely?
Caller: Yes.
Me: What type of modem do you have sir?
Caller: RCA
Me: Sir is there an on/off button on the front of your modem?
Caller: Yes.
Me: Can you push that button for me?
Caller: Hey, the lights on the modem are blinking now. Let me see if I can get on the internet. I can. I am also getting my email. How did you do that?
Me: I didn't sir, you were the one that turned on the power.
Caller: Oh.

Remind me again why we let stupid people procreate?

Tomorrow...Adventures in Florida!

Man, am I getting lazy!

I can't seem to get around to logging on to the computer at all these day's. My excuse, the sun is up. The hour's just fly by now that there is light until 10:00pm. I am too excited to stay inside. I feel a need to be out doing thing's. Enjoying life. Run with the dog. Run with the family. Run with the Connie. Just run. I also see a need to burn the rubber off the bike brakes. Car's are just discovering biker's again. I however, do not wish to meet them so I am getting better at the whole idea of dodge-ball-a-la-bike.

Today has been an absolutely beautiful day. Got off a bit early and dashed up to Dondra's to see my little one. She is growing like a weed. She actually stood up by herself. Not for long, but that's not the point. Connie and I went and got her a swing and high chair and a bunch of clothes and bottles. It made her mom and dad happy. I also, gave her parent's my bike stroller so they can put in a few miles up in the canyon's with her over the next few month's. Figured I wasn't using it and those thing's are too expensive to just let them sit when there is someone who can use it. Dondra and Fuzzy are already have my conned into taking the kids for a weekend so the can have a vacation. Not that I will mind much at all. Cameron is a great big brother. I think he even like's Abbie a bit.

Well, going to go run outside some more. After all, the sun is up.

OK, I am worse than...

Connie and Michelle with keeping this updated lately. I will work on it when I get home.

Florida. Green and flat. Got up today and went biking. We went up "hills" near Jason's parent's home. Well at least I did see a bump or two on the trail. Nice ride though. Then we did about 2 hours of trail hiking this time there was actually hiking involved. the do have some neat assed sink hole parks here. Got to see Florida's version of big tree's. Even took a picture of it. Yeah, there is only one. Then I went swimming to cool off. If the heat doesn't kill you the humidity will. I feel like I am in a sauna all the time.

I found Connie's mom's twin. She live's in Florida and say's she's Jason's mom. Really neat lady although I haven't shared my "Kinky Toy's" book with her yet. :)! We did bond over recipe's and wine though.

Well, it's late and I am pooped. Going to crash now for an hour or two. Have fun ya all!

I had a minute so...

I figured if I didn't update this blog someone might accuse me of following in Michelle's or Connie's footstep's :). I have an arm. It works quite well too. It's a little wimpy but I figured it had never really been strong so I don't seem to be missing much. I have got complet range of motion back which is excellent. Anne is working on the strengthening bit. Before to long I will be all muscle (right :-P). I will be going back to work on Sunday. I get to pick when I go in for the next week because I don't have a set schedule. They forgot to submit all the paperwork to H.R. So next week will be nice and easy going. I have to start out on 6 hour day's just to make sure the typing doesn't cause me too much stress on my shoulder. Whatever. I will be moving to an early morning shift, 5:30am, the following week. We are now closed after midnight so my original shift is gone. My team was split up among others so I will get a whole new team in 2 weeks. Just in time for me to goto Florida. I think I need to talk to someone about that brilliant idea. I am thinking it would be better to just shuffle papers for the next two weeks then get my team when I get back. The same number of employee's will still be there so I will still be able to take them on when I get back, and for now they won't have to panic because they can't get a hold of thier supervisor because she's 1400 miles away. I will have to chat with Amy on that one. As a side note, did I ever tell you my boss has incredible legs. Well she does. I got a real good look at them yesterday. NICE!

Today has been fairly productive. I turned into "Jiffy Lube", as Connie would say. Changed oil and filters in 3 vehicle's. I would have done the lube also but dad was out of grease and I was to tired to run to AutoZone one more time. My car is running much happier now. I also finally got around to burning the guck out of the engine. No more knock. If I would just change out the roter's and fix the bent strut I would finally have everything done. Well, except for replacing Abbie's teething episodes, but I have to goto a juck yard to find those parts.

I am now going to shower and change. Wayne and Jeannie have invited me to BBQ and fix thier computer, oh and get sloppy assed drunk (that's a given when you are with Wayne). Soo, I am off to do that. Maybe I will network my house tonight too. I need to get that done soon. I am getting tired of my Aunt using my computer because her's is slow. It's not my bloddy fault she own's a POS I offered to help upgrade it several times over the past few year's. I digress.

Have a good weekend all and hope to catch you all later.

Time to change things.

I am going to use this waste of time my Doctor has seen fit to apply on me and rehash the whole blogspot and get my website up and running. Paying for a damn domain name and I haven't done anything with it. Not a wise thing. So there ya go.

Ahhhh

I am home. I missed my computer. I am truly becoming that geek that I never wanted to be. I can't imagine not having access to a computer at all. I thought I was going to die when I had to deal with a dial-up connection. There is no hope for me. I have become a product of society. Dependent upon technology. *SIGH* Oh well. I may as well enjoy it.

I got to have my boy over the weekend. His grandmother took him home and left him because she was tired of having to entertain him. I have never had to "entertain" Cameron at all. The kid is 10 for hell sakes. He can entertain himself. So we went up and saw his Mom and Abigail then can home and made turkey and cheese quesadilla's and played Pokemon while watching Iron Chef. Oooo, now doesn't that sound like a whole lot of work. Tomorrow is his first baseball practice of the season. He made the team of the older boy's (I have no idea what they call them now a day's), so he's pretty excited. He will be the team's pitcher. That kid has a pretty mean arm on him. I took him to the dog park with me a couple of month's ago and watched him throw the ball just as far as most of the men that were there. One of the guy's actually had a contest with him to see who could throw the farthest. Cameron almost beat him. All I could think was "that's my boy!!" You know if I have half as much fun with his sister as I do with him I might just stay young after all. Maybe I will be able to forego the whole idea of having my own kids.

Mom and Daughter are doing well

Both are adorable. I will get things thrown together and get the pics posted this weekend.

I can rasie my hand now. Not real high but I can lift it. I am driving myself about too. The doctor didn't release me to driving but he didn't exactly tell me I couldn't drive sooo... I didn't know I had to get permission to drive. Anne pointed out to me I might want to get permission. Well can't get a hold of the Doctor until next week and I wouldn't want to waste his time anyway.

Lorene, sorry about the puppy. I wish that you didn't have to go through that.

I will keep you all posted about the going ons of Mother and Baby. Take care of yourselves and those around you. You never know when or where they will need you most or you may need them.

I think these are off...

I know that I hate shoes far too much for these to be anywhere near correct. I think Lorene and I may have had our answers mixed up.

Which Evil Criminal are You?

Time to do something.

Anything would be good. I am starting to go stir crazy. My family took me to see "Phantom" at the Pioneer Theater yesterday. I enjoyed the play. The trip up to the the play house was even more interesting. I recommend riding the train for a few hour if you are looking for some good entertainment. We had the preppy homeless gal who ranted about Social Security. The drunk tumbler, who thought my dad was the saftey net. I believe my favorite was the Book of Mormon chanter. The singing of the verses while swaying back and forth just couldn't be topped. For all you people watchers...take the train.

Coma or pain?

What would you choose? I can either be in pain and remain conscious or take a couple of Loratab and be out cold for the entire day. Loratab never used to affect me this way. Maybe old age really is creeping up on me. At least I got my hair washed today. Had to go to see Tiffany and have her wash it but I have a clean head now. I really hate dirty hair. Makes my whole body feel dirty.

Tomorrow I think I will go to Border's and find me a book or two to cram some reading in before I get back to work. My parents have been good to me. I have certainly been able to get lot's of rest. I kind wish they would make me get up and get moving though. It would have been nice to go get the books today. Oh well. C'est la vive.

Well at least it's not a urinal
