Yes, this did really happen to me....

I went out for Chinese with my coworker and her daughter today for lunch. Sitting next to us was a table of 3 women in their 60's or 70's or possibly older. They must have all had ADD or something. Here is a small glimpse into the topics of their conversation for the 35-40 minutes we were there....
"I wont touch frog legs"
"I don't buy bagged lettuce because it always goes bad before I can use it up"
"Yea, I was part of the Wednesday bowling league, but it was just too busy, so I switched to Thursday"
"I was at Walmart and saw this fuzzy Nativity blanket. It was labeled $7.99. But when I got home and looked at my receipt, it said $1.99. So I went back and bought 3 more to donate to the animal shelter"
"My mom's dog bed cost $40! That dog has a better bed than I do!"
"We have cats that sleep on our kitchen chairs so much that we had to get fabric to recover the chairs in"
"There's going to be a wonderful show on the Weather Channel tonight. It's about weather on other planets"
"Mother, wouldn't this be wonderful for my chia pet?" (said by one of the ladies to someone who I'm guessing is her mother.)
Something about Notre Dame Football, then something about tennis
"Where's my keys. I can't find my keys."
"Where's our next meal?"
Discussing hunting dogs they had in the past "He was just a little white ball of fur"

I'm not exactly sure how they were able to follow each other, but I had a blast laughing at them on the inside!

New Printer?!?!?!?!?

Can it be true? I'm getting a new printer at work?!?!?! I realize this might not be as exciting for you as it is for me. but what you must understand is that I have the oldest computer at work... by like 3 years or more (and in computer age, 3 years is a long time!) I've only been without a printer for like 3 days at work, but even when I did have a color printer, it didn't print on cardstock which ment I couldn't print the business cards, or the time cards. Now I can print color things at my desk that I would either have to have someone else print, or I would have to print them on the other side of the building, meaning I would have to go to the other side of the building, load the correct paper product in the printer, go back to my desk to hit the print button, back to the printer to collect the printed items, then back to my desk to do whatever I had planned on doing with it. (that is if I remember what I was going to do with it)

I am His. As I pulled into camp today, I was listening to some LDS Hymns. When I pulled my car by the lodge, these words were sung: Fear Not, I am with thee oh be not dismayed for I am thy God and will still give thee aid. I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand up heals by my righteous omnipotent hand.

Rough Day

I can't say it's entirely been rough... just the last 20 minutes. The rest of my weekend was great! (that's for a happier blog post later.) As I was on my way home from a birthday party, I realized tomorrow is Monday. I have to go back to work tomorrow. And I don't want to. Going along with that is I'm sick of my job and I'm sick of complaining about my job. I'm grateful for the ability I have to work and provide for myself. I really am. But this last year, it's been really rough. Between a new boss and new rules and procedures I just dont want to be there anymore. I really dont! I'm sick of disliking Sunday nights so much because I know what the next day will bring. Frustration, anxiety, loathing, genereal dislike, feeling underappreciated. I dont know how much more of this job I can take! I was so worked up about this on the way home that I was crying. Then when I walked in the door of my house, I was to the point of being angry. I practicly threw...
