What I've learned lately ~

1. The schnoz for turning off the sprinklers is NOT in the big round-plate-covered hole outside. Thanks to Tyler for rescuing me.
2. If you have your christmas lights plugged into TWO separate outlets, and one of them is on a timer, it's hard to remember to turn on (and off) the other half of the Christmas lights.
3. Walking on the treadmill in your stocking feet gives you THREE blisters on the bottom of your feet!

What's new?

Let's see.
• My new muscular bike had to be taken to the shop to get the pedal crank tightened (thanks, Tyler!) It works GREAT now!
• I had a flat tire (cut the corner too close with a tail-gator on my tail, and hit the curb). Cost me $120.
• I got the calendar finished (thanks, everyone!) except for a couple of dates. I'll order it and let you know when it will arrive.
• We (Chad, Cory, Ang, and Angie and I) got our Leopard! Rrrrrrrraaaaggggghhh! It's GREAT!
• I helped Michelle Coleman put together a DVD of their extended family's vacation in San Diego. it was SO fun. I almost wish i could start a new business with Michelle—"save your vacation memories!"
• I cut back Service Missionary service to two days a week (Tuesday and Thursday). They didn't have enough for me to do. This works much better! I had to play the piano for one of the secretaries at the Lion House at a Secretary luncheon. Got free food, too!
• Still trying to get money for the Russian project. But who knows where that will go! Any suggestions? Oprah didn't think it necessary to answer back my inquiry for funds.
• I went on a diet for people with type O+ blood. Sort of just the Atkins. I lost a couple of pounds in a week. Part of the diet is to get off all dairy. Can you believe it! I didn't have chocolate milk for a WHOLE WEEK! Then I had a little yesterday, just because, and it made me sick to my stomach. Life isn't fair!
