A couple of pictures of the cross stitches I've made this year for Christmas

Body World

Holy Cow! I went with Cara, Colleen and Marilyn to the Body World Exhibit on Tuesday and let me tell you that it was AMAZING!!! I was a bit nervous at first because I wasn't sure what to expect, but man, it was awesome. The most incredible part was the baby section. This might sound bizarre, but they had babies from the womb. They were in a tube in fluid and they were from 5 weeks after conception up to 9 weeks. The 9 week baby (I refuse to use the term fetus) was SO amazing, You could see the fingers, toes, eyes, mouth, every single little detail. I could not believe it. Wow!!! If you get a chance, please go see it.

New Phone

Well, it's been a while since I've checked in here. It's so sad to think that Summer is over. The high for today is about 65 degrees, tomorrow it's supposed to drop to 55, then Saturday it's supposed to drop again to 40 degrees with Rain and POSSIBLE SNOW showers all day. Needless to say, I am NOT looking forward to that. I am not ready for the cold weather to set in at all. I want it to stay 70/80 degrees for at least another month. Seriously, I hate the snow.

Anyway, I got a new phone. It's the LG Dare. It's pretty cool. I'm starting to get used to it. It's taking some time, but I think that I'll get the hang of it pretty soon.

I know this isn't very long or anything, but I think I'll sign off. I have lots of work to do today. Better get started on it.

Mother Nature Hates Me and I'm Begining To Feel The Same Way About Her

It's my own fault, because I vaugely knew that she (Mother Nature) did not like me, but I didn't realize how much until this week. I foolishly thought that I was under the radar, but I guess not. I was at the top of her hit list this week.

So, I slept with the window open on Saturday and I've been paying for it ever since. I can barely talk this week. It's been SO much fun to have a sore throat and a cough ALL week! Yesterday, my throat was so dry I started to choke and cough and it was like I was trying to swallow my uvula or something. It was horrible. (For those of you who don't know, the Uvula is the little thing that hangs down in the back of your throat). This week I've been told that I sound like an old women, a smoker, and that I sound like I've been smoking dope because my voice sounded so mellow and low. (just in case you don't know, I'm not an old women, nor do I smoke cigarettes or dope) Although, I do have to admit that I like the smell of dope, I've NEVER smoked it. AND if it's dope and Stetson Cologne combined, then I really like it. It brings back fond memories of high school and a certain boy named Tom. But that's another story for another day.

Anyway, I'm very happy today is Friday. I plan on going home, opening a can of Chicken Noodle Soup and taking a swig or two of some Tylonel and then entering into blessed Dreamland. Nice way to spend a hot weekend in June huh. Such is life I guess.

Something must be in the air

So Liisa received flowers from an agent today to thank her for her help on a case. And then I got a call this afternoon from an agent telling me that he was sorry he was so grumpy to me earlier today. He felt bad and wanted to apologize. Crazy, huh! (might not sound that way, but believe me, this is a rare day)

I am stuck at work until 5 o'clock tonight. Ugh. I wanted to go home five hours ago. This has been the longest week. Even though I love having three day weekends, I hate the four day week afterwards. There is always so much to cram in and the week seems longer than a regular five day week.

So, Katie had her baby about 4 weeks early. She had a boy, he's actually very healthy for being so early. He weighed 3 pounds 5 ounces and was 15 inches long. Very tiny, but cute. They named him Alijah Wayne. (not that thrilled with the first name, but whatever)

Let's see what else is going on? Hmmm, nothing much, really. Work is work, pretty much the same thing over and over as usual. Except, I totally miss Woolsey!!!!! Woolsey, come back, please!!!

I'm supposed to drive to California in September, but Gas is already at $4.00 a gallon out here and I read on KSL today that "they" are predicting that by the end of the summer it's going to be up to $7.00 a gallon! I can just imagine how much it's going to cost to get to Cali and back. UGH!

Thrusday, May 29th

Woolsey, I'm TOTALLY missing you!!!!!! But, I'm heading out the door to the dentist and so I will have to expound on that subject later. :-)

What is Fruit Juicy Red?

This was on the can of Hawaiin Punch I had today and it just struck me as a funny way to put things.

Made me laugh, so I thought I'd share.
