So Much for Resolutions...


I do not think I will EVER do a New Year's Resolution again! I always seem to fail horribly. This year I had a few:


1) Cut Soda Consumption to (1) daily

2) Stick with Weight Watchers

3) Be Organized

4) Dress for Work


So far I have managed to fail at the first 2, I took this picture of my trash can in my office, this is 3 days worth of drinks! I love fountain drinks, but they DO NOT love me. I think that my organs are beginning to shut down due to the High Fructose Corn Syrup and Carbonation.


From now on I am only setting Goals. I can achieve a goal/milestone. So starting today I will cut my soda in take in half for the next week, then we will set a new goal! (More to some on the other Resolutions not being followed!)

FRIDAY!!

Yeah it is finally Friday, well Friday night anyway. This week flew by, and this weekend is suppose to be a major soaker!! I love rainy weekends, nothing to do but put the Jammie's on get the Netflix from the mailbox, make some snacks and veg.
OR
Scrapbook! I have way too many projects started and none finished. I have been trying to get Scrappin' Princess off the ground and it seems like now is the time. I want to spend some serious time getting samples completed this weekend and getting the photos done.

That is my plan right now, who knows what will happen when I wake up tomorrow!

We are supposed to get a couple of storms over the next couple of days. We desperately need the rain but since all of the fires we had earlier it is a little scary. The potential for mudslides is huge. Anyway, on the way in to work this morning it started to just POUR, but the sun came out and was shinning at the same time. I love when this happens! If you watch the rain fall you can see each and every drop glisten. When I was about a mile from work I saw the most incredible rainbow I think I have ever seen. You could actually see the whole thing. The colors were so intense! This picture hardly does it justice!

Why I Should Always Read Directions..




For Christmas I got my Hubby a new camera, his was way out dated, and we researched and researched like crazy until he finally decided on a Panasonic Luminx with a 10X Optical Zoom Wide Angle Lens, 7.2 MP, 3"LCD Screen, ETC. Well when we researching this new camera, I, of course became immediately unhappy with my camera. I started complaining that mine didn't do anything cool, it didn't make any sense, it was really out dated and so on! I left my camera home one day, and my husband got a hold of it and come to find out it DID do all the cool stuff his did, he took a whole bunch of pictures of our fur babies to show me! These 2 are my favorites!






My new BFF!!


This is my new BFF my brand new Wireless Router from D-link! After the nightmare of the last two days my CTO brought this to me yesterday and now life is GOOOOD!

Technology...Love it yet soooo hate it!

I HATE TECHNOLOGY! (not really since I make a living in the high tech arena) I have now wasted two whole days with my stupid router!! I normally work from 7 am to 4pm (PST) I am entering this post at 3:49PM, because I am JUST NOW ABLE to get on-line!



Another day wasted at work...I so would have rather stay home and let the tech guru fix it for me, OH wait that would be me!

Houston We Have a Problemo.....

So I am sure that most of you had today off as it is MLK day. I however had to work. I say I had to work, but WORK is relative as I got in bright and early, only too fine that I had NO INTERNET!! Since it was a holiday and I work in a remote office, that meant no TECH SUPPORT! URGHHHHHHH!!!!

Too Much Too Say...

I am always being told I talk WAY too much! Whenever my reportcards were sent home they would always have the same comment..."Kim is a very bright girl, BUT she spends all of her time talking in class!" Some things never change I guess. Finally after 37 years I still get in trouble for talking all the time!

My wonderful, amazing husband has been at me to start this BLOG for awhile now. So I finally said "What the Heck" ok not really I said something more like "What the %#@!, I'll do it"
