Finishin up November!

Sorry I had to post a month into one little post...
I got my New Refrigerator to match my other appliances!!!
New Black Fridge!!!





It Also SNOWED this month and a good one, it started on a Thursday night and ended on a Saturday Night!
Puddi at Dog Park in the snow
I love snow and to just have so much in a short time took me back to when I was a kid in Colorado Springs and it was a huge Blizzard... the lights were out and my Grandma and Grandpa Williams were there.
For some reason I recall us painting the house that weekend too but that could just be a crazy thought in only my mind.



Puddi and snow nothing better
  Finally I had a great Thanksgiving... I had dinner with Margo and her family, then I went to my friend and previous Boss at Symantec Mark Kendziors house for a visit.  He has two great dogs and a beautiful home with a Theater ROOM!  Here are Mark's dogs:
Bandit

Coach

Finally My Dad decided he wanted a new hip on the other side (he liked his new one so much) that he fell and broke is other hip on the 27th, he had a new one put in at 3 am on the 28th and so far is doing great... But I really want them to move up here close to me so I can take care of them I don't care if its in Springville or Nephi just as long as it is not Fillmore, Beaver, Cedar City or St George :)
See you in December!

Night of the Running Dead 5k and Wolverine!

This weekend was a great time..

I had Black Belt Class Saturday morning... and then I had some fun going up to see Jax and Trevon!
We had lunch at Jimmy Johns and while we were there we found out the Anime Convention was in Layton.
Well Juanita and Jax had to go see it so I drove through the Parking lot 3 times for them.

I then had to go home so I could get to my volunteer duties at the Running Dead 5k at the South Town Mall area.
I got there and was quick to start handing out packets and while standing there I decided I was going to do the run.. I have not done a 5k since I lived in Manhattan where I used to do a 5k or 10k once a month.  It was my way of staying in shape for my clients in the gyms.  Well I signed up and realized I didn't have shorts on and I wasn't wearing my running shoes nor a sports bra...
so I ran to Old Navy and bought a pair of Ute pajama bottoms to cut into shorts and wear.

I started the race at a good pace (slow and steady) I finished in 42:30 minute which was pathetic if you look at the fact at one time in my life I was doing 4 miles in 34 minutes... LOL
I had fun and completed the race with a little wear and tear on my bod!

Here is a couple of photos for you to see:

Before the 5K
After the 5k 42:30 minutes later

Condo Transformation 2012 and I love it.


Ok I have wanted to change my floors for the last 6 years and with my Lay off from Symantec I have been able to pay off all my small credit card debt, get some appliances that I really needed and now a beautiful new floor in my condo.
First the before pictures Monday September 24th!
Note the Ugly orange tile on the right that is in the entry way and in the kitchen too...


 This is the day the work started and I was anxious to come home to see this:

And then the work just progressed...Tuesday I came home to this:


Tuesday night I decided to have Mike include the kitchen tile as well so Wednesday no new flooring but check out the carnage in the Kitchen!


Thursday night I came home to tile without grouting in the kitchen and the rest of the floor laid with no base boards I was saying in my head LOOKS GREAT!!!



Finally everything in place and furniture back in the home where it belonged





Finally some area rugs for the marimba and the living room area

LOVE my NEW FLOORS!
