It is so darn cold here in the office. Yeah, it would help if I did not drink so much cold water, but still! It is over 90 outside, ya’d think they would have the heat a tad more normal. Hmmm, I wonder if we could incorporate some type of team building project regarding the heating and cooling systems here at work. Perhaps work with other teams in the building, like the Maintenance team ! Kouzes and Posner at TeamWorx.Com are great at team building programs so I am sure they could help. Our small team of 8 people is a great team, and I am very lucky to be a part of it. Just this morning, my friend from down the row (on another team) was telling me that when someone goes on vacation on their team, they don’t have a back-up person. They have tons of back log work and its no fun. eGads, I can imagine! They for sure, need a team building program! Our team is great; we all have back-up people and when we get back from vacation we are just peachy, and all our work is up to date.

My Gosh. I feel like a bloated whale today, sitting here at work. This is what I ate so far today:
Coffe, Bagel w/Cream Cheese (150 calories) one Carrot, Nectarine, Strawberries, and about 5 glasses of water. This however, is good. I feel totally full. I know its all water, but hopefully it will fool my mind into thinking I am not hungry. Oh, I forgot the donut (250 calories). whoops! The boss brought in Donuts, I really hate that when he does that !
Anyways, since today is pretty much my Monday, I am doing rather well so far. The trick is, when I cook those breaded chicken tenders for my sons’ dinner tonight, NOT to eat them ! ! ! I get salad, okay ?! ?! ?! ?! ?!

This weekend whilst camping, I meet a bunch of new people. It was Family Camp with our Scout groups; Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts and Girl Scouts. The parents that went, have a lot in common with other parents that went too. We all love kids, camping, hiking, fishing, just basic outdoors stuff. I often wonder how couples meet other couples with similar interests if they are not part of a group, like I am. Of course there is always the online couples search, where if you don’t have kids, you can find other couples that like the same things you do. With ‘The Couple Spot’ we all can meet interesting new people, do fun things and not drag the kids along with. Even though it is hard for me to understand sometimes; people DO like to do things without thier kids always around!

Wordless Wednesday, Tuesday Edition.

A view of the Uinta Mountains, oh and I got a little sun burnt too !!

Even though today is Monday, its actually my Sunday. I really love long weekends! Camping was fun, we had a wonderful time. This will be a short post as I will blog more about it later when I have more time at work, heeheehee.
However, one thing I want to mention, is that having contact lens whilst camping is really a pain. Put them in, take them out, plus the dust in the eyes, the wind; its all such a bother. Since we live in a small city, Lasik in San Francisco would probably be a good option for me. I know a few people that have had Lasik and they love it! Even Tiger Woods had the procedure and we all know how good his eyesight is!
It would be so very nice to wake up in the morning and see clearly, especially the beautiful mountains, which still had some snow by-the-way!

Since I live out in the Wild Wild West, sorta speak, we have grocery stores that stock both food and boots; cowboy boots, work boots, and winter boots. I actually used to work as a cashier in the store and I loved it. I would get my all my boots there, really! We use boots a lot out here. In fact, I am taking a pair with camping this weekend! Gotta love the outdoors!
