Today is a big holiday here in Utah. It is the day, that some big Mormon leader whose name I cannot seem to remember, came to our lovely Valley and said “This Is The Place”; meaning this is the place that the LDS pioneers will settle and make their home. I think they came from back East somewhere. I must admit, my Mormon history sucks. I know very little about it. I do know tho, that they did not have any Rubis cutlery. We do have big parades today, lots and lots of Rodeos, Carnivals and FireWorks all over the valley tonight. It is actually a very good and fun holiday for us non-Mormons, as all the business are closed, well, unless you work for the feds, or an international company, they are open. It is always nice to have an extra holiday during the year!
The kiddo and I are thinking, just thinking mind you, to go someplace and watch the fireworks, however . . . the prob is that it is 100 degrees out there today. So we have not decided if we are going to venture out yet!

Well I seem to be in a rather grumpy mood today considering I took the day off work! Sometimes this happens to me; I get so worried that I will not have a job when I get back, that I stress out on my days off! Totally stupid, I know. The last few times I have taken a long weekend vacation, I have had headaches every fetchin’ day. Time are so hard in the Travel industry, that it really worries me sometimes. I cannot do a thing about it, but I still worry. Stress is my enemy. I think and think and think, and ‘what if’ way too much. I gotta just go w/the flow. I strongly believe that things happen for a reason, and more oft than not, it ends up better in the long run. I just have to hang in there.

My Gosh. Today has been just one of those days! I have been swamped at work; the boss came back from his Vegas vacation at his friends condo hotel and he really piled on the work today. Lots of odds and ends, didnt give me a chance to do much but work! I know, I know, that’s what I am supposed to do, but I still like to have a few breaks in a day.
I did not drop any ECards today either, so I am sorry for that. I still need to reply to many of you guys and see how you all are doin’ w/the Tuesday Girls, in which I am still trying to get you-all linked on my side bar, but dont seem to have time for that either these days! eGads, I am ready for bed, but I just sat down, and I still have laundry, and dish, and . . . it never ends does it !?

Okay. I could use this, yupe, sounds good to me: The Takemi Jade Vista 5000 Massage Bed . A LightSpeed massage bed that changes light from technologically advanced helium projector bulbs, into a special wavelength of light called Far Infrared. Sounds totally soothing to me. Plus, I can listen to my fav tones as it has a built in MP3 Player. Immediate Relief, Relaxation, Health & Vitality are the results of the Massage Bed. Many Chiropractic professionals are starting to use these beds and they are poppin’ up in every day homes as well. Wow. To have one of these in my house; Good Bye Stress!

Well this past weekend was a total waste. I didnt do a fetchin’ thing! Okay, I did water the grass a little and check my plants, but thats pretty much it. Oh, and I did gain 1.5 pounds, and yupe, that is the result of doing nothing.
This morning, however, I stood on the scale and since I knew it was going to be terrible, I didnt freak out; I am starting fresh today and with a good attitude. I know I can loose the pound in a day or two and it is only Monday and I have the entire week to keep my goal of loosing 2 lbs a week. I can make it happen. I just have to do it !
We have plans already for this coming weekend, and they include lots of walking. I will not lug around any golf bags, but we might go play Minature Golf, walk to see a Movie and just plain get outside.
I have a possitive attitude today. So There !
