Veterans Days..

I can't remember when the parade was but I think it was in September for Veterans Day. After the parade, I was lucky enough that my sister gave me two tickets to the BSU game!! The top collage is the parade.

Here is the game. I went with my friend Jasmine. The top collage shows the BSU band spelling out the branches of the military and a class taking the oath and joining the military.

We were seating at the very top of the stadium. You can see the underside of the box. We won of course. It was great times!

I am a bad daughter!!!

I FORGOT!!  How could I forgot!!  My parents celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary on November 15th!!

Turned a frown upside down!!

Last night is exactly what I needed to turn my frown upside down.  My great sister Caitlyn hosted a little Christmas party for all the little kids. I raced home from work and picked up Brehdi. We finally arrived just in time for Brehdi to make a countdown Christmas tree. 

With that completed, it was time to make the gingerbread houses.  What a mess was made.  Marlee, Emma, Wyatt, Brehdi, Kaylee, Nick, Tyler, and Lily were all crowded around the table making a house.  Brehdi’s turned out really nice.  After that was over it was time to play.  Boy did the kids play. 

Unfortunately I didn’t get any pictures but Caitlyn had her camera out so I will sneak a couple of pictures from her Facebook and post them here later. 

As Brehdi and I leaving, her gingerbread house fell apart!!  Sad that her dad couldn’t see it.  Thankfully we scheduled another attempt for Sunday afternoon.  It was nice to be in a happy atmosphere instead of being yelled at.  I haven’t been near family for over a week and it was making an impact.  Amazing how we take what we have for granted.

Bonus is today is Friday.  Just a few more hours to get through and then the weekend will be here.  Saturday will be a busy day.  It starts off with the Meridian Holiday Parade, then the Tuba Christmas concert in Nampa around noon, then babysitting Marlee, followed the Caldwell Nightlight Parade.  Early Sunday morning, I am driving my parents to the airport.  They will be in Iceland for the week.  What a great way to celebrate a 30^th wedding anniversary.  To go experience a new place together.

UGH!!

I HATE PEOPLE!!!

I hate the majority of my coworkes…because of their imcompetence, I get yelled at.  There is nothing I hate worse than getting yelled at for something I didn’t do. 

It has been nothing but negative all day!!  GRRR!!! 

If someone looks at me cross-eyed, I may just cry.  This week has sucked!!!

I am sure that tomorrow we will get an email wanting a reason why so many people hung up. I cant say what I really want to if I want to keep my job. 

To add to the crappy day, I still have to drive home!!  It took me 2 hours to get to work…after taking 1hr 45mins to get home last night.  If tomorrow will be repeat of today, I am staying home!!

I thought it would be such a loverly day with the snow but boy was I wrong!!

I feel like I have to take care of everybody. I really want someone to take care of me.  I shovel my walk and my neighbors walks all the time. But when I am too busy, no one ever does it.  I don’t want to go home and make dinner, or do laundary, or the dishes but I don’t have anyone to share the load with.  It sucks.  Yes it is my stuff but sometimes it would be niced to be surprised once in a while with a random act. 

Oh well.  I guess I will just shoulder the load….and shoveling the snow..

But on postive note…there is at least 6” of snow in Boise.  I really just want to go play in it like a kid.  Unfortunately, that won’t happen and by the time I can enjoy it is dark and then tomorrow it will be all gone with temperaturs reaching high 30” and low 40”.  Guess that bright spot aint so bright..
