January 2014- Book of the Month

I finished a book for my resolution to read 1 book a month. I read "Blackmoore" by Julianne Donaldson.
I didn't love this book as much I loved the author's first "proper romance" "Edenbrooke" but it was still a quick, entertaining read.
February's book is TBD so I'm taking suggestions. I'm leaning toward "Divergent".

Saturday Seething, part 64 of a 444 part series

I haven't Saturday Seething in nearly a year, partly because I tried really hard to be positive in 2013 and because I couldn't really come up with something clever. Well brace yourself, because here I go...
What is the deal with rude people keeping their headphones on while going in a retail store?!!
I work early mornings and I have some customers that come in to get their morning drink and totally ignore me when I'm trying to greet them, tell them their total, hand back their change or advise them to "follow the instructions on the pin pad", and wish them a good day. I know I shouldn't take it personally but I really don't like how disconnected our society has become from one another. We barely even look each other in the eyes; it is truly a sad deterioration of our civilization.

Crystal Hot Springs

So fun and so salty!!!
It must be my Scandinavian heritage but I sure love hot tubs, hot springs, saunas, etc.... Especially in when it's freezing outside. :)
We went with our cousins to Crystal Springs tonight. The springs are in northern Utah, just north of Brigham City.
We all went there once as kids on a summer camping trip with our grandparents in their motor home. I remember going down the watersides so much we wore holes in our swimming suits!
Tonight we pool hopped to find the hottest one and once we were thoroughly mineral soaked and pruny, we left and headed to grab a late dinner.
Lots of fun on a Saturday night!!

TGIF

It's FRIDAY people!!!!

I remember a cheer/chant/song from Girl's Camp:

Friday, Friday, Friday is my favorite day

Monday's a bummer

Tuesday's just fair

Wednesday's getting better

And Thursday's almost there

But Friday, Friday, Friday's my favorite day. Hay!!

Mid-January 2014

It is already the middle of January 2014. What?!!! How did that happen?!!
I'm already falling behind on my resolutions to read a book a month and blog twice a week. I like to think that it's okay because a least I still remember to think about them and thoughts lead to actions, right? So by that logic, maybe if I think about them enough, then they will happen.
How are your resolutions going?

It's Juan-uary!!

I will be having Family Home Evening with Juan Pablo for the next few weeks.
