France Here I Come!




I'm so excited. My husband I booked our tickets last night for our trip to France in March. We stay at his mom's in Gordes for a few days, then at the end of trip we go to Paris ! I'm so excited. Just so, so excited! It's been 2 years since we've been in France and it's been too long since I've been away.


I'm also happy to report that I've been keeping up on my laundry and staying organized!

Feeling a bit like Frankenstien



Well, the trip out to Salt Lake City, Utah, was so fun and it really came at the right time. It was great to see my sister and see her living in her new town. And it was great to see my parents. Time with your loved ones is so important. And I so glad that I did not hesitate in asking for time off from work.
So I stayed up with my family in Park City, where the ski resorts are. Downtown Park City is a quaint. We had fun walking around looking at the book stores, clothing stores, art galleries and restaurants. The ski resort, The Canyons, was beautiful. They had many ski runs and at times it felt like we were the only ones on the mountain. I went snowboarding and mind you it's been about 6 years since I went boarding last. I wasn't too bad actually. However, during my last run down the mountain I had a hard fall on my bum and I landed right on my tail bone. Ouch!

Fast Forward a few days now and my neck is so stiff. I can barely turn my neck side to side. Uhhh. I've never experienced neck pain like this. And I feel so bad for people that have chronic neck pain. If this is what it feels like all the time, I would go crazy. I hope it will heal soon. My honey booked a massage for me this Friday. So I know I have to let the masseuse do her thing and I'm sure there will be much pain involved why she works out the kinks. But I have to let happen. Right now when I turn my head like I'm Frankenstein! Stiff city!!

I will say, it was all worth it. The fun and the memories I had will always stay with me. It was so great to see my family and I'm so thankful that we could all be together!

Free


This past week had been a very long week. Friday finally came and went I was ecstatic. 2 weeks ago I put in my resignation for a fun little part time job I had on the side And although it gave me a bit of extra fun money..it wasn't worth it in the end. I would end up having to go to this job almost straight after my corporate day job and then this second job wouldn't get me out until 9p.m.! So that was enough of that! I did not like coming home late at night and feeling as if I had just walked in the door only to get ready to go to bed. I worked my second job for about a year. But I think leaving it was the best thing for me now. On my last night, Friday, I locked up the place and I was just happy to be done with it! I worked with some really great people so the whole experience was not too bad! But I just feel like I'm free! Yeah!

I'm going to Salt Lake City, Utah this coming week. My sister just moved out there and my family is visiting her. I've never been there so I'm looking forward to it and I'm looking forward to snowboarding too. I haven't been on the slopes for about 5 years. So I'll basically be a beginner on the board. Oh well I'm sure I'll give people a good laugh if they watch me.

Snow ~ here I come!
