{cure for the blues}

So these last couple of weeks I have confirmed what I have known for years. There are two things in this life that can cure all life's disappointments, stresses, tiredness, bad days, long days, and even just plain fed up with life days....you name it and these two things can cure it or at least make it better. These two things might seem trivial and lame, but I am sure that some ladies out there will agree with me on them!


First: A nice cold Diet Coke...let's get this straight
it can't be just some Diet Coke it has to be either in
a cold can or from the fountain with just enough
ice, the bottle just doesn't fly.

Second: A new pair of shoes.

I just got these cute little numbers.

There aren't too many stipulations

for shoes as long as you feel good

in them!

Set For the SnOw!

Last week Spencer told me that he was going to sell his alpine skis and by some new ones. I was a little confused since he doesn't alpine ski very much, he really only telemarks and his telemark skis are pretty dang nice. Me on the other hand my skis are about 4 years old, they work fine so I wasn't about to ask for new ones, but he was going to sell his and by himself a new pair....I will admit I was a little bugged.

The day that he sold his skis he calls me up and tells me that he thinks we should buy me some new skis this year, I was so excited. What a thoughtful husband I have (most of the time ;) ). Well check my babies out they are hot! K2 Missbehaved here is what the description says on rei.com "Fully designed for aggressive female riders, the K2 MissBehaved ski is a soft-snow pro for backcountry adventures and epic powder days at the resort." I am so excited and ready for the snow to fall. If you can't find me at work, you can find me on any black diamond and don't be surprised if I am riding switch ;) Once again thanks Spencer for sacrificing your new skis so I could have some sweet skis for the season.

Ghost and Goblins oh MY....

Halloween this year was a lot of fun! I always start thinking about my costume in September, I know I am kind of weird, but it ends up that I can never find anything that I love. It would be easier if I felt like I could afford the $50 costumes that you can purchase online, but I can never justify buying them because I am only going to wear it once. So I always end up pulling something together that is cheap. This year I was Bat Women and thanks to my friend Paige, Spencer was Turk from our favorite TV show Scrubs. This year we had a party over at Paige's house it turned out great, lots of good food (which is most important), got to hang out with friends, and we even hooked up the Wii and played a little guitar hero. Costumes were a must for our party, and everyone showed up with some awesome costumes. I didn't get a lot of pictures, but Paige got some good ones so for more pictures of our Halloween party go here.
