Today my goal is to take down the outside Christmas lights. I think it is about time. It is bright and sunny today, no blizzard or inversion and it is supposed to be over 30 degrees. We have those blue icicle lights hanging under the gutters near the roof. I do believe I might even have used some HDMI splitters, but I am not sure. I am not much of an electrician. Anyways, it’s really a pain putting them up, not so bad taking them down, but non the less, a pain all ’round! Every year I dont really want to do it, but I do, and when they come on at night, its really pretty. We have an off white house, so the blue lights really look neat. So, off my butt I go…

This is a story about a friend of mine; she is a little, lets just say, a little ‘out of Utah’. She has been talking to me about moving to LA and having some cosmetic surgery. I feel she would make a good canidate for rhinoplasty in Los Angeles, CA. She want sto make herself more beautiful…..as you read this story you will see what I mean.

It was snowing heavily and blowing to the point that visibility was almost zero when my blonde friend got off work. She made her way to her car and wondered how she was going to make it home. She sat in her car while it warmed up and thought about her situation. She finally remembered her daddy’s advice that if she got caught in a blizzard she should wait for a snow plow to come by and follow it. That way she would not get stuck in a snow drift. This made her feel much better and sure enough in a little while a snow plow went by and she started to follow it. As she followed the snow plow she was feeling very smug as they continued and she was not having any problem with the blizzard conditions. After an hour had passed, she was somewhat surprised when the snowplow stopped and the driver got out and came back to her car and signaled for her to roll down her window. The snow plow driver wanted to know if she was all right as she had been following him for a long time. She said that she was fine and told him of her daddy’s advice to follow a snow plow when caught in a blizzard.
The driver replied that it was ok with him and she could continue if she wanted, but he was done with the Walmart parking lot and was going over to Sears next.

I was reading CNN online yesterday and it was mentioning the possible extra money we just might get in June this year. I guess no one is spending much money these days, so they want to boost our spending and give singles $600 and married people $1200. They also mentioned that there might be a child fund too, possibly $300 per child. Ya know, that would be very nice. I could use the money for sure and I think lots of us could. It would be a very nice present. However, I bet we would be taxed on it at the end of the year. I need business performance management softwareto figure out how to go around that one, heeheehee.

Here I sit, at work, I know, you already know that I am at work. sheesh. Anyways, I have the munchies. really bad. Yesterday I started all over again to loose those 10 pounds, okay, 12 pounds, that somehow magically attracted themselves to me, and no…I have NO idea how this happened! So my point here, is that it is fetchin’ freezing in here. I am drinking cold water in order to not eat anything. This place is littered w/food 24 hours a day I swear. and not good stuff either, well, it IS good tasting, but not healthy. So I am chugging down the water, getting up every hour to pee, and freezing my butt and fingers off! It is so cold!

I am determined to fit back into my women’s lingerie. I have drawer full of nice stuff. Its been there for…..ohhhh, a very long time. I am not going to wear the stuff in this freezing weather, but I figure I better get my was-slender figure back into shape so I can look nice come Spring. Who knows…. I might even get a date by then !

I like naps. I never take them, but I like them non-the-less. I really wanted a nap this afternoon, but of course it did not happen. I think I am slowly wearing myself out tho. One of my New Year Resolutions was not to take a vacation day this year until April. Its too fetchin’ cold to go out, the weather is sometimes depressing (when there is no snow that is) and I always try to save my vacation for the summer. My dad says that I could be feeling down and tired because I am not getting enough sunshine. This is probably right. I need the sun. I have heard that the sun provides Vitamin D. No, not in large sun-burned ways, but just a hour or so of sunlight a day. We have not seen the sun in a while out here. Its been snowing too much; which is good cuz we need the water, but One day of sun would be nice. Either that, or more rest and sleep for me. I feel like bedtime right now and its only 7pm. Maybe a short nap . . .
