New Adventure

I am on to the next adventure. I am a dog owner. I had a 3 day trial which was increadibly difficult and emotionally draining. But we (Sasha and I) survived and now we belong to each other.
Sasha is the Hannah in the last blog. But I think Sasha fits her better and within 2 days she answers to it very well. She is a quick learner of anything that brings love or treats.
Advertised as a Blonde Lab mix. She is probablly more mix than lab. Not sure all what but i love that she is smaller than a lab and has the beautiful blond/red color of a lab. She claimed me just after a day, but it took a few days for me to decide that i would do her good as well. We have walked together, shopped together, hiked together, cried together, been on a doggie play date and eaten together. She will be a great pal!

Hannah

This is Hannah, I just met her today. She is a beautiful girl. She is a yellow lab that is mixed with something else.... no one really knows for sure what. But she is small for a lab and has beautiful white patches and some dark coloring on her tail. I am very seriously considering adopting her. We are going to spend some more time together and get to know each other a bit more, before that decision is made. Don't you love how she poses for a picture? what a girl.

Book

So i have decided I am going to write a book. I'm horrible at English but figure if i can get the words on paper someone else can make them read properly. Its entitled Life is a Rainbow A perfectionist guide to living life in color. I figure I'm pretty experienced at believing in being perfect and living black and white. I should share what i am learning about finding the color in life.
Work however is so busy right now that i just come home and crash at the end of the day.
Love reading all the updates on every ones blogs. Thanks for letting me share in the fun.

Perfect Weekend!

Spent the weekend away. Spa, Sunshine, Shopping, St George, Seven Wives Inn, it was a great combination! I am laying in the pool down there thinking; "Why don't I live in St George?" I havn't figured out the answer to that question.... so maybe some day I will and I can enjoy all those things every day.
The Seven Wives Inn was delightful. A huge Pioneer home withh all kinds of amazing bedrooms and bathrooms built into the closets. They had amazing breakfasts. I had a Yogurt Fruit Granola Parfait served in ann ice cream goblet. I felt sinful to have such a great meal for breakfast.
At the Spa i had a body scrub and wrap in lavender/aloe oil. Then a massage. It was most relaxing.
I enjoyed hours floating in an very very cold pool on a very hot day. It couldn't have been any better.
Then dinner at Anna & Kyles on the way home. Kyle made homemade Tortialls for tacos. What a feast. They are the funnests hosts.
All in all it was a perect weekend.

Spending

I am busy spending my tax return! its so much fun! I have added insulation to all of my home - hope the gas bills go down. Waiting for the HVAC guy to come and price an AC unit. Ordered some additional kitchen cabinets. Bought some kitchen hutches. Arranged to have my fabulous electrician finish the power updates in the next couple of weeks. It is all so much fun. Oh i also had my contractor weed and feed my lawn in hopes that it will do better this summer. I love tax return time.

latest happenings:

Work and more work. Love my job but it is getting into the crazy time. New computers, new images, new software and lots of headaches.



Went to an Image Consultant presentation and found out that it doesn't matter how tall I am, if I can walk in high heels I should wear them! That made me happy. I get tired of the short men in the career world who ask why I would wear heels when i'm so tall. I think they are simply jelous and I tell them I wear the heels because "I CAN!"



Milton and boys cut all the dead limbs out of my cherry tree last week. It looks really bare. but at least it is now living and not just dying. I hope they get to make something beautiful out of all the red cherry wood.

Spring Flowers

The first flower of spring has come out. I love that I have not yet planted flowers at my house. But I have flowers blooming! and even better they are purple. I think this house was meant for me, even with all the work that I had to do and all the work still left to be done. I am so happy to have my home with its purple spring Flowers!

Can anyone tell me what kind of flower it is?............................
