Cattle Drive




I had a wonderful time down in Lynndyl this Saturday "helping" drive the cattle to their summer home in the desert. It was truly an amazing thing to see these cows move along down about 1/2 mile of road and then make a big turn toward the desert. It was also very impressive to see all the farmer men direct them where to go. It is truly an art to get the cows to do what they need to do. I am still a sucker for baby cows and there were a lot of calves that passed by. Moo and I were on one end to stop traffic and her mom was at the other end of the road. We were right by the turn and it was so fun to see this thing of beauty. Cows are not stupid. Okay, so most of them aren't and if you get the smart ones in the front, then the actually know exactly where to turn. It was awesome. Going down to Lynndyl always reminds me of my childhood and the time I spent on the farm with my Grandpa and Uncle. I always thought that I was a farm girl, even though it was only a weekend job for me!

Thank you to Moo's family for letting me be a part of the experience and for supplying me with wonderful food while I was in town!

Other than that, not much has happened this weekend. Friday, I played softball and lost again, but it was as fun as always. I sure do like the beautiful weather of spring and all the fun I get to have outside. I cannot believe that this will be the last full week of school with the kids! Crazy! I will have to enjoy every moment!

Today just plan to go to church and lounge around! Good times. My kind of Sunday!

Have a great week everybody!

Practically Friday!


Hey. This week has been going fast. Have I mentioned that lately? I thought so. I have been out and playing frisbee golf a lot lately so I pulled this classic pic out of me playing last year. It is hard to take pictures of myself playing when I go by myself so this will have to do. I don't think that I have changed all that much since then.

What else? Did you catch the season finale of The Office? It was spectacular. I sure do love that show!

I really don't have that much else to write about. Weird huh?

I hope you are having an excellent day. Later.

p.s. I have been saying "Whatev" a lot lately, so it is now the title. I do have to say that I really think a rotating title is awesome. It just seems to name itself! :) Yipee for me and my genius.

Exciting Eyes!




I went to the eye doctor today. It was thrilling. I will be getting new contacts shortly. Thrilling, I know. I hope they work well because again the eye doc wanted to change brands of contacts for me. I do not know why they always insist on doing this but whatev. I will try the trial pair out and let's hope they easily come out. I have had troubles with some brands in the past. It was hard for me to let them go with a different brand because I kinda feel like if it isn't broken I shouldn't fix it but again: whatev. I did think I was pretty sexy in the fun fake sunglasses they gave me after dialating my eyes. They were pretty big, huh? They haven't changed much. Hopefully, they will go back to normal before I go to work tomorrow.

I am really loving my students these days. I wonder if that is just because I know we are close to the end. I hope not. I sure so love my job.

Not much else to report...well I did get my new satellite receiver in the mail today. My old one erased all the DVR stuff I had in it....twice! So the whole season of The Office. GONE. The past four new episodes of House. GONE. A little upset about that and the fact that I now have to reset all the timers I had on my old receiver. Bummer. Oh well. Whatev!

Tired

Wow. I am tired this morning. Maybe I had too much sun yesterday or something. It was beautiful weather and I took two of my afternoon PE classes outside to play football. Then after school I went frisbee golf jogging again. So nice. I got real tired at about 9:30 but of course stayed up until 10:30. I slept right until the alarm at 6:30 this morning and am still tired.

I am glad time is flying. I am way excited for all the fun that will be happening the next three weeks. This weekend I will be down near Delta to witness what moving the cattle is like for my friend's family. The 30th I will fly to Vegas. (It is part of the fiasco with my plane ticket credit. It is finally figured out now and I still have 250 to use toward a future plane ticket, yipee!). Then I am in Utah for two weeks and get to see Kelly Clarkson on the 11th of June. Then I fly home the next day. Exciting times. Loving life right now!!

Pics and Monday



Today was long and tiring. We had meetings all day and talked about our school for next year. It is all going to work out but it is going to be stressful for the whole staff to figure out all the changes come August. Good times!

Time is flying by. Crazy. Life is just crazy!

Enjoy the slide show from Denver. I guess that is good to post today seeing I don't have much to say today!
