woo hoo!

My kids and I celebrated our Christmas last Friday. (people heading out of town etc... makes us celebrate early). I got a Kindle fire from them!

I'm LOVING it! I'm playing on it all the time! Even take it to bed with me at night and play Angry Birds until I can't see straight! ha ha ha!

It was so nice of everybody to give me that. I absolutely never thought I would want something like that. But I just love it. All kinds of fun little games and time wasters! LOL.

I want to bring it to work, but I will never get any work done if I do. I'm sure I'll play games all day. ha ha ha.

Inversion

Utah is going through another one of its yucky weather things. We don't see the sun. The air quality sucks. No snow on the ground. Blech.

It's depressing. Day after day.

I hate snow, but I would actually LOVE to see the white stuff falling just to clear the gunk out of the air!

My poor friend has asthma and has had to use her inhaler a couple times a DAY for the past week. She usually only needs to use it once a week.

So, I post a picture of the sun. Because even though we can't see it.... I know it's there. Up there. Up high. In the sky. Somewhere hidden behind the smog.

Prove me wrong!

Not a fun day


Overslept. On my way to work David calls me to say his car is on fire and he can't get hold of his dad.

I freak out.

I try to find him and can't. Good thing is that I did not see a car fire, so hopefully that meant something positive.

Continuing on to work I come soooo close to a head on collision by some idiot who cut in front of me at Eisenhower on Redwood Road. SO close. I closed my eyes because I was sure we were going to hit.

thankfully we did not.

At work. The copier (Big Rosy) is having a PMS day. (Big Rosy is the name of the machine... not a person). She ran out of paper and it is very hard to load her. She takes big heavy rolls of paper. So I get it in, and then the machine won't load it. So I have to unload, re-load. Unload, re-load. Unload, re-load. Over and over. Finally get the paper in but then I hit the wrong button and told it that it was the wrong paper so when I made my copy it printed soooooo slow it took about 20 minutes to print one sheet.

Then the ink ran out.

Then I unloaded the paper and re-loaded it yet again so I could correct the type. Then made my copies which for some reason turned out HORRIBLE. It looked like someone walked all over them with dirty feet. Barely legible.

So I cleaned the machine, and tried again. Didn't make a difference. The prints suck.

Meanwhile.... I have a stack of drawings on the desk that need to be released, but I hate to do it when the machine will make horrible copies. And every ten minutes somebody else wants something so I go off in a different direction. The drawings are still waiting to be released and it's almost 1pm now.

Gotta change my mojo somehow.

Totally sweet

This is my early Christmas present. My grandbaby. I love watching her grow. She changes everytime I see her. She is just a doll.

Absolute perfection in every single detail of her.

She has the most incredibly long, dainty fingers that I have ever seen. I need to make a cast of her hand before that changes.
