1st mile down

I did the first mile on the new treadmill tonight. It wasn't too bad, although I wasn't going very fast. I wanna put some time in on it everyday. I had a pretty difficult time getting it in the house and upstairs, but the assembly wasn't nearly the pain that I was expecting it to be. I moved the tv from my office into that room, the exercise room, as it's now called. I think this weekend I'll go pick up a flat screen for the office. Sometimes I like to have the tv on when I'm in here on the computer or doing whatever. I've noticed that I spend more time upstairs when it's hot. Downstairs has all that open space and the really high ceilings. The AC really has to work to keep it cool down there. Up here it gets cool fast. plus the ceiling fans keep the cool air blowing.


I love having an SUV, I can use it for all sorts of things.

Made it to the weekend

The weekend's here, now what? At 9:15 this morning my phone said the temp was 93* and the high for today is going to be 109*. The other shot was for San Diego where the high today is going to be 73*. I know which one sounds better to me. Morg had to come over and see what I was doing and kind of blocked the shot.

It's Hot !

It was back to work today after a 3 day weekend. I was struggling with some work stuff all last week and I wasn't anxious to go back. I'm trying really hard to have a good attitude and remember that I'm in control of how my day goes. The weekend was good. I got to spend some time with the Brown's. Bella and the boys are growing fast. Bella showed me how she is getting better at swimming, and how she can whistle now. The boys are a lot more alert and stay awake for much longer stretches. I got to feed Colton his dinner last night. I talked to Em and she filled me in on what Kye and Brody have been up to. Hopefully I can get together with those guys soon.

I went to the Apple store and got the new iPhone. I already had the iPod touch so I got the new phone loaded up with all my music and all that stuff. I'm still working on entering all my contacts from the address book, I have to enter each one individually. The Apple store in New York is so cool, I had to grab that photo too. I have a couple of photos that I took of the NYC store myself but it's late and I'd have to go downstairs and get them off the laptop blah blah blah. This one looks way better anyway.

I haven't done a blog entry in a while so I thought I would do a quick one tonight. Last weekend the family all came to support Ryan and Sochilt because the 3 babies were blessed in church. It was good to see and spend time with everyone. I had fun going to see Up in 3-D, we played miniature golf one night, had a nice big meal with everyone at Ryan's house on Sunday. It's rare and can be pretty stressful to be with both parents and their spouses all at the same time. The lunch party was went great though. Rob and Brandy stayed at my house with me. Mindy stayed over 2 nights, and Malakye even stayed over 1 night. Mom came out to help with the triplets like a week before. I really enjoyed getting to spend some quality time with her. Whether it was going out to dinner at one of our favorite spots, or the 70 mile car ride out to Em's house, I enjoyed spending that time with my Mama.

Today was my flex day. I went shopping around for a new treadmill. I found one I like but it's big. It comes in a box and I wasn't sure if it would fit in the Xterra. I'm going to see if I can get someone to help me pick it up, get it home and upstairs.

While I was out today I also got a big-boy-burrito from Chipotle and went and saw The Land of the Lost movie. It was kind of silly but it was ok. I used to really like the old tv show. I still like Sleestacks.
