lazy

Post by: Chris on February 18th, 2008 | File Under Every Day Things

I am probably going to upset some people w/this post but right now I just dont care !
Let me tell you why.

I work on the 4th floor of our building. And I do admit, sometimes I take the Elevator. I know, I know, its appaling, terrible and just down right lazy! Today was one of those days that I took the elevator. Hey, its Monday, what can I say?! I rode up w/this, hmmmmm, person. They got off on the 2nd Floor. My Gosh People ! Can you not take ONE flight of stairs!? I have heard it all before tho; my knees cannot take the stairs, I have a hard time breathing, and it takes me too long. Well. Do you know WHY those things happen ?! ?! ?! Its because you are 200 pounds overweight! Of course your knees hurt and you cannot breath, heck, you prob cannot breath when sitting in the fetchin’ chair doing nothing!

Okay, I think I am done venting. *sigh*

What a way to start Monday.

XO

Being the musician that I am, one of the places that I must visit is Branson Missouri. The history of that place is totally awesome! Some of the greatest stars in just about every venue of music has performed there. Even today, you can see a show called, Legends In Concert. The Blues Brothers (my all time fav), Aretha, Stevie Wonder and Elvis may even perform for us. They have great vacation packages that include accommodations, food, shopping certificates, and show tickets. No worries there, they think of everything. Which is just what I need, a stress and worry free, relaxing vacation at a great price!

They even have a Amazing Pet show. I have seen one of these before and they are so neat! The Cats and Dogs can do the most amazing tricks. Of course, they are all trained with positive reinforcement. I can tell the animals love their trainers. Branson
has so many different things to do; Museums, Rides, Golf, Movies, Shows. Water Rides, Go Carts and much more. I am SO there!

tired

Post by: Chris on February 16th, 2008 | File Under Every Day Things, Family

Saturday night and no movie night for us this time. We are just going to calmly watch TV. The kiddo has been sick all day. I dont think he moved, other than from his bed to the couch, and the occational bathroom break. I feel so bad for him, he just cannot shake this cold. I on the other hand, have been working very hard all day; cleaning, washing, shopping, waiting on the kiddo hand a foot - you name it I’ve done it today. And man am I tired. I could use some of those legal steroids I have heard about. I need strengh to continue on as I am fading rapidly. Good thing bedtime is soon….

changes

Post by: Chris on February 16th, 2008 | File Under Every Day Things

I am trying to find a Theme that I really like. I find them, but then the comment responder doesnt work, or I have things on my Sidebar that I need to get rid off, like on this one. That RSS big icon totally bugs me. I guess they made it that large so that us people would not need reading magnifiers! I do have an idea on how to get rid of it, but I am rather tentative on going into the Theme Editor and changing the programing. Last time I did something like that I had to bug my sister to fix it all ! And I am really really trying to do this by myself. So, if you keep seeing different stuff on my blog, its because I cant find a Theme that I like, heeheehee.

TV Update

Post by: Chris on February 14th, 2008 | File Under Every Day Things

OK. Remember when I mentioned I bought a TV and then two weeks later it went on sale for $150 less….? Well I finially have it all straight now. Yesterday we went to Costco to see if they would honor the coupon 2.5 weeks later. They said NO. However! This is what the lady suggested I do: She said, go back in the store, by another TV at the sale prices, come right back to her, and return it using my old reciept with the more expensive price. My Gosh. So….we go by another TV, go right back and the lady acts like she never seen me before, asking me why I want to return it, is there something wrong, etc. At this time I am starting to sweat as I dont need another TV ! ! ! She then has to call a manager over who opens the box, makes sure all the stuff is in there and guess what!? He said the Remote was missing. My Gosh. Startin’ to sweat more here…..I then ask her “Do you not remember me…? I was just here w/the coupon?” She looks blankly at me. I tell her um, the TV never left the store! So finially right before I throw a fit, she puts the funds back on my card as a credit. I just about fainted. This is a large amount of money ! ! ! Ya’d think they would have just done it the easy way. sheesh.

Since Spring is just around the corner I have decided we need to get out and get some exercise. A good way to have fun plus get lots of exercise is to play paintball. I would have as my weapon of choice, a tippmann a-5. These babies have adjustable stocks, flatline barrels and my gosh can you accessorize: padded gun case, stealth mask with visor and anti fog lenses, deluxe harness and an ammo hopper to top it off! I know, it sounds like a manly thing to do, but I have always liked shooting things. I used to carry a small 380 when I worked up at the ski resort. Plus I went shooting a lot with my old sheriff friend. Maybe I can get him to come play paintball with me. Such Fun !

delay

Post by: Chris on February 14th, 2008 | File Under Every Day Things

Wow. We got so much snow last night! Over a foot our place, possibly Three Feet at my folks house. So much snow that school is delayed 2 hours this morning! In all my life here in Utah, I do not ever remember school being delayed because of snow; it’s just unheard of here. We drive, walk, plow thru it all and just go w/the flow. It’s FUN ! ! My son is stuck at my parents home till school starts. I hope they dont mind…. Anyways, the weather will change as Monday it is supposed to hit 45 degrees. It will all melt. pooh.
