More Flood Footage

Footage of bottom of hill last night


Pictures of the creek at McClean Park today


The creek today

Andrew and I were actually going to engage in social interaction and physical activity this morning. We were going paintballing with some co-workers at The Edge Paintball Adventures. Unfortunately it got canceled due to flooding. Hopefully we will have the courage to go when we get to reschedule.

Rain Much?












Luckily I live on the top of the hill (the last four pictures are of the bottom of the hill). This is the most water I've ever seen in good ole Park City. The creek down by the park floods sometimes, but I've never seen the water pass over the street like this before. I'm not much in a witty or writing mood, so that short commentary will have to suffice. I hope everybody enjoys their weekend, however wet it may be.

Any Advice?

If anybody has any grand advice on how to deal with the mother of your significant other I would sure appreciate hearing it. I'm really, really, really, really trying hard not to take some stuff she's doing personally, and I'm really, really, really, really trying hard not to put Boyfriend in the middle, but it seems it may eventually become inevitable. Is that ever okay? And if there are situations that warrant it, does it ever turn out well? Ugh. It's making me angst-ridden and nauseous.

Just a Thought

This is all just hypothetical. But, would you find it weird, if say, your boyfriend's mother has him buy her feminine hygiene products? What if he had to buy her an enema on one occasion? Would that be weird? If, say, her son is 30 years old. And, in theory, she is perfectly capable of going to the store and purchasing these items herself. I'm not asking for myself mind you. Just hypothetically-speaking. Just a random thought popping into my head about a hypothetical situation that might happen somewhere.

Labor Day Weekend



Boyfriend bought me flowers for coming home safely from Omaha on Monday. What a sweetie. My mom and I went to visit my brother over a wonderful excuse for a three-day Labor Day weekend. We didn't really do a whole lot, but I enjoyed it just the same. We went to Nebraska Furniture Mart, which is an insanely large place with an insanely large number of idiots people shopping for everything from armoires to zebra-printed area rugs (everything from A-Z, get it?!).


My brother bought a bedroom set, which incidentally looks exactly nothing like this:


We ate at this really suave restaurant called O Dining that had really good Asian cuisine. I had Hot Braised Chicken with brown rice. It was not nearly spicy enough yummy. It didn't make my nose run like I wanted it too though. On Monday, before we left, we ate lunch at the Cheesecake Factory where I ordered a low-calorie, weight management Pear and Endive Salad Crispy Chicken Costoletta and Dulce de Leche cheesecake. At least I took the cheesecake to go.


After driving the speed limit hauling ass for five hours cursing at left-lane drivers the whole way, I got home just in time to spend some quality time with the XBox 360 boyfriend and go to stupid work the next morning.

Ta da!!! Two posts in one day! Anything to get out of work I did this whole post on my 15 minute break. Ahem. Sure.

Keep Her Close


Today Olivia is having strabismus surgery to correct her eyes, which should really help her vision. Please keep her and her family in your thoughts and prayers today. Jodi is really nervous about the surgery. It's an outpatient surgery and a very common eye surgery, but Olivia has been through so much already it is hard for her parents to put her through anything that requires a visit to a hospital. She will have to be put on a ventilator during the surgery, which I'm sure is the most nerve-racking part of the whole thing for her parents. Remember Olivia was on a ventilator the first two months of her life.


I am confident Olivia will sail through this surgery with her usual spunk. I'm excited for her vision to improve to see how this will affect how she "views" the world around her. She's an amazing little girl.

Just Bailey and Me

Pyzam Family Sticker Toy


Savannah at A Kid's Life inspired me to make this family sticker. It looks just like my family! Except for the fact that I don't carry a briefcase to work (just my March of Dimes messenger bag-BAM!) or wear dresses. Nor does my hair do that flippy thing (unless I'm fresh from the hairdresser-shout out to Cha-Cha at Savage Salon). Oh and I have opposable thumbs. But Bailey looks just like that! Except she's about twice that size and has larger ears. And a much longer tail. Okay, so my family looks nothing like that, but it was still fun to make.
