Kids say the cutest things…

Someone reminded me earlier of something my nine year old once said (he was 3 at the time) He was about to do something very naughty when I nicely reminded him to “choose the right” he turned and yelled back at me ” I don’t want to choose the right mommy, I want to choose the left”.

Â

Kids are so cute, sometimes even when they are being naughty. Today is his ninth birthday. Happy Birthday Dallin!

King of the Geeks

My husband has come up with the brilliant plan of shaving his head if they succeed in getting Seth Godin to Utah. I better back up a little. One of my husbands all time favorite writers, Seth Godin has said that if the local geeks in Utah can get 500 people to agree to hear him speak at $50 a pop then he will make an appearance here with his new book. My husband along with other local fans have started a major campaign to make sure this happens. Then came the brilliant plan, If they reach there goal my husband along with 3 other Seth fans are going to shave there head bald. brilliant huh.

Â

Now this is not the first time in my husbands life he has decided to Bic his head. He shaved his melon once before and ran into Steven Tyler of Aerosmith who rubbed his head and asked if it was real.

MIA

MIA for a few days for spring break. Going to fun and sun in socal.

Note to Self…

Â

Don’t drink Mt. Dew before bed.

Â

I was up half the night with my mind racing so of course I’m totally exhausted today, so guess what more Mt. Dew its a vicious cycle.

Â

I was on a total health food kick, working out 3-4 times a week and eating like a rabbit, then life got crazy and the diet went out the window. Why is it that some people can change the kind of breakfast cereal they eat and instantly drop 10lbs. and there I am killing myself dieting and working out and getting no where. Then there are those people who have a baby and a week later are back in there size 2 jeans. Genetics are not fare. I’m convinced that I am genetically unable to loose weight so I’m rebelling and eating and drinking whatever I want. (thus Mt. Dew at 10:00 PM)

Â

OK enough of my pity party back to the diet and yes I promise to give up not just Mt Dew, but all soda.

Â

I’m off to a business luncheon were I not only have to pretend to be awake, but have to try and find something on the menu that fits within the newly rejuvenated diet.

Â

P.S. Victory on the no soda thing at lunch, but complete failure on the healthy menu choice. We went to Chinese food, and I had deep fried chicken pieces smothered in lemon sauce, fried rice, and a deep fried egg roll. I don’t think I could have consumed any more grease if I tried. Oh well there is always tomorrow.Â

I hate Twitter

OK no not really, Twitter really is a pretty cool service, but my husbands phone goes off every 10 min. with texts from his group of friends. I don’t mind it sometimes, but during Easter dinner, come on. If he would turn it off in the evenings when we are trying to watch a movie it wouldn’t be so bad, and please don’t text and drive at the same time. Well enough of my ranting and raving.

Spring in Utah

Last week the weather was beautiful, sunny and in the 60’s, today 4 inches of snow. That’s spring in Utah for you.
