Went to get Gas yesterday at Costco; it was only $1.32 a gallon! Let me tell you, with all thats going on right now, that sure made my day. I was thinking about getting Ephedrasil hardcore, as a mood enhancing supplement, but today I am feeling a little better. It is amazing how a good nights sleep helps me. Plus, the weekend is only Two days away and I am so very ready to sleep in Saturday morning.

I am so very angry right now, that I have to get this out or it’s just going to eat me up! Usually Christmas Times goes pretty smoothly in our Family. This year however, I am not doing too well. My Sis and I decided to get my Dad a laptop from Christmas. He really needs one. He does have a desktop, but in the wintertime the pc is in a room upstairs that is not heated; with the laptop he can bring that anywhere and stay warm.
So we ordered one, sent the confirm email to him, he of course showed my Mom and she totally freaked! From what I ‘hear’, she is upset about some Union retirement argument that started at least 10 years ago! He was not supposed to get a laptop unless he contacted the Union. Well, for reasons I wont elaborate on (dying brother in Chicago) he was not able to contact the Union, so therefore, my Mom says he broke their deal and does not get a laptop.
My question is this: What the heck does this have to do with me and my sis getting him a laptop for a Christmas present?! She wont pay a cent for it, she will not use the laptop, it in fact, has nothing to do with her whatsoever ! ! !
So instead of me freakin’ out any more than I already have, I am going to ignore the entire thing (a trait that my Mom does ALL the time) and pretend it never happened.
Dad will get the laptop on Christmas Eve and Mom can not do one thing about it.
…and yes… if any of my family members read this, I am aware of the consequences that will be dealt to me by my Mother, bwah hah hah

I could eat a big huge breakfast every day and never get bored. I love all kinds of breakfast foods too, so yummy! and today I could not resist. I just ate half my daily food allowance and its only 8 am. Scrambled Eggs and Hash Browns from the cafeteria here at work, and wow they were good! In all my years here, I never tried this before. Now I know why; I’d do it every day if I could! Its a good thing we are not going to be at any las vegas hotels either, cuz I would eat everything on the breakfast buffets too!
But I really needed something solid today. Yesterday I lived off Peanut Brittle and had to skip dinner as a result to eating too many calories. But thats okay once in a while

As I sit here on the forth floor of our building at work, I am watching it snow sideways. The wind is just terrible out there; freezing, and the temp is like only 23 degrees – and that is with out the windchill factor! I dread having to walk those 4 minutes outside to reach my car. And Yes, I have timed how long it takes to walk from my car to the front door. Attendence is a big issue here. But I hate being late anyways, drives me nutso. gotta work now, ugh.

Well I guess Winter has finally arrived along the Wasatch Front. I don’t need any Seiko watches to tell me that, I just have to look out the window. It has been so warm this season so far, that I glad we got some snow today. I guess I need to put the Pumpkins away now! They will get really mushy really fast if it gets over 32 degrees out there. But I am glad it snowed, I do love the snow; may it stick around till Christmas cuz ya gotta have a White Christmas!

Wow. This day is flyin’ by and I am not even at work! I am taking today and tomorrow off work; spending a little time alone without the kiddo, heeheehee. But I have been workin’ my buttocks off! Clean clean cleaning up this house. It is really a mess. But I do get a break in just a few minutes. I am actually meeting a girlfriend for coffee! If any of you know me, this is indeed a rare thing. Most all my friends are guys and I have only like, um . . . 3 female friends and one of them is my sister! But it will be nice and I am really looking forward to it; I get to have a delicious coffee, rest a little and gab a little, in person even!
back later . . .

I just got back from the Airport where I picked up my Dad. I have thee best job, as I was able to take one hour off work, in the middle of the day just to go get him. He was in Chicagoland for a week visiting his brother who is in the hospital. It sure is nice to have him back, we all really missed him. My Uncle has stomach cancer, nothing like Plantar Fasciitis, which my other friend Red has, but both are still very painful.
Every day I am so thankful that our family here in SL is healthy. I want my family to be around for a very long time cuz I love each and every one of them So much. XO

Well I really need to get into the Christmas Spirit! I need to get my mind going in the right direction. I need to be thankful for all the wonderful things we have and I need to be happy again. And I am workin’ on the ‘happy’ part. I am taking this Thursday and Fridy off work. I will do the usual; clean house. Strangely enough that makes me happy. Oh, and I plan on resting a little too. Resting always makes me VERY happy, heeheehee. But for now, I gotta work. There are two people out sick. Something is going around work; I had it a couple weeks ago and dont want to get it again!
