Park City

Well, our get away weekend is over. It is always nice to get home and back to your things. Jackson did awesome staying with his Grandma Dee and Grandpa George. He ate his first happy meal and polished off the whole hamburger, half of the fries and half of his milk. He doesn't eat like that for me!! He is such a squirrel when I feed him. He slept well, stayed happy and I am sure LOVED the attention he got.

We got up to PC on Friday night, checked into our room and ate dinner at the restaurant in the resort. This is one of those time share deals where you get the room free if you listen to their speel. Which, side note, we actually considered purchasing until we realized that we are really too poor for it. That is good selling. They make you feel like you are this great vacationer and then want you to make a decision right then and there. Luckily I had the wits about me to say, no way am I making this decision right now while I sit here. They didn't want to let us go think about it, but reluctantly we did which is when reality set it and we were like, "what the heck are we thinking." Anyway, we got the free stay and $75. Not bad for a 90 minute presentation.

So is it sad that when you are on vacation all you want to do is sleep in, lay around all day watching TV and movies and eat? We went to main street in PC and wandered a little and had fun in the heated pool mmmmm, but besides for this, I was a total lazy sack. I didn't even take my camera out which is unheard of. It was a really relaxing vacation for us and so nice to be able to leave Jackson with someone we really trusted.

So we watched the movie Tristan and Isolde. Anyone seen it? I liked it and yet was disturbed by it. Let me know what you thought of it. We wanted to go to the theatres and see something, but there is really nothing playing, although Stick It was in the top of our list too, or should I say my list?? Douglas hadn't even heard of it. I think we will go see MI III this Friday. It will probobly be totally stupid, but looks exciting anyway. Dang, I'm an easy sell. Oh by the way that is Mission Impossible III.

I don't want to even think about all I have to do this week. Our yard is dying, my house is nasty, I HAVE to finish painting Jackson's room, I am working, going to a scrapbook all nighter. Ahhhh, just the thought makes me feel major anxiety. I am starting over with Fly Lady. I am even a failure at that. I do really well for a while and then get lazy and forget and it is a slippery slope downhill.

I am photographing a wedding in two weeks. I am really nervous and I have a new lens I need to figure out--also adding to my anxiety.

Happy painting/scrapbooking/working/photographing, cleaning! you can do it! I love the pictures of Christian and Holly. I wish I could meet her. I am really happy for Christian. (I must say I was really surprised when I got their announcement in the mail, too--I am never up to speed on the family gossip)
