Dancin' in the rain...





My little sis had a run in with some Kings of Leon tickets last minute. She asked me to go with go so of course I was on board. We got out of town as soon as I got out of work, came home took a quick shower and got dressed. It was still extremely hot here in Pueblo so I thought I would wear a comfy sundress. We hit the road and headed north for Denver and of course hit a major rainstorm on the way. This Colorado weather is insane not to mention I was not really wearing rain friendly attire. I knew I should have wore my rain boots!!!! So it pretty much continued to rain the entire time. The drive up, through dinner at “Gunther Toody’s” ( a 50’s themed diner in Denver) , and through the whole concert. Luckily I never leave home un-prepared and I packed some extra clothes which I changed into at the diner.
At the show we danced in rain to some awesome tunes and got totally soaked! “Built to Spill” opened up for K-O-L and they were pretty great too.
So I failed to mention that we parked about two blocks away from the venue in a “free” parking lot - which consisted of weeds and dirt. We left the show prior to the encore because we wanted to beat the insane traffic that would be sure to follow. I drive a 1998 Volkswagen GTI…NOT the best to drive up a dirt hill after it has been raining for hours and has now turned into mud. So yea we drove half way up the little hill and pretty much slid right back down, after a couple more failed and scary attempts I backed it up and took a different route. We finally made it! I was pretty scary, I had no idea driving on mud was worse than driving on ice. My car just went pretty much wherever it wanted and luckily we didn’t hit any parked cars when sliding because we came VERY close! The ride home was smooth and seemed pretty short which I was thankful for since I was a little tired.

Here are some pics from the day:

She's alive....

That would be me. I haven't blogged in over a month! I've been so exhausted with working overtime and my blood sugar has been out of wack too which makes me feel really tired and fatigue all the time. It really sucks but I try to deal with it the best I can. I did however lose the eleven pounds I wanted to lose, so im happy about that. I'm living with by boyfriend so I'm not working at home right now, I'm actually going into work for the time being. I also applied for a new position at work so I'm hoping I get it and a good schedule too. I got out of work early today went and had lunch with my mom and took a longish nap. It was great! I really love naps, I wake up feeling recharged! Then I did a haircut, watched some American Idol, then went and got a Slurpee (which I have be craving for over a week). In other news my birthday was on the 4th and I turned 28! I can't believe it....where do the years go? I still feel like a youngin' :) Here are ...

Wednesday Window Shopping V.1...

Image
Happy Holidays! Today is the first day of December in case you didn't know - which means you only have 24 shopping days until Christmas left!! This is the first year EVER that I have actually been on top of my shopping through out the year. This only leaves me with a select few I still need gifts for. So instead of doing my "Wednesday Wishes" post I'm changing it to "Wednesday Window Shopping"! I think more than likely this will be a permanent change since I LOVE SHOPPING. So here we go... I think this would make a really awesome gift for that studdly coffee or hey even cocoa drinker in your family or a quirky friend! I have a set minus the mustaches (I wish I had these instead) I love them :) {via} Now how about these for the cute and fun baker in your family!? I just think they are soo cute and I have been drooling over them for quite sometime. I have no idea why I haven't bought them yet. {via} I think these lovely Moccasin Slippers would make suc...

Life with Poe: Sleep, Eat, Poo!

Image
My little Poesy Quinn is learning new things everyday. She has rolled over, can stand up while leaning up against something, and has become quite the babbling boo! She talks and talks and talks in her little raspy voice. She has the prettiest big-open-mouthed smile I have ever seen but of course I'm never fast enough to capture a photo of it. She is taking longer naps and sleeps good through the night waking up only one time to eat. We switched her from breast milk to a new formula since she has colic and it seems to be be working, she seems happier which make me happier. The only down fall to the new formula is the stinky/explosive diapers!!! Awe the joys of being a mom, as they say. Will I miss these stinky diaper one day?? Only time will tell. Here is my stinky Poe sleeping, she is so beautiful!
