A few days late :)

So, I don't know if anyone knew, but we went on vacay & are currently hanging out in Colorado. :) 

I didn't intend to take a vacay from blogging, but it just happened. We have been having a blast with family & friends. 

We went to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo on Thursday...tried to get my nose frozen off while walking around, lol. The morning  was still pretty cold, but we had a good time. There weren't many people there so I really enjoyed that. We all I know that I don't really do large crowds. So  it was pretty cool. We started out by feeding the giraffes, and ended with feeding them again. It is just too freaking neat, I know Maddie & I really enjoyed it. 

We also spent a while at the rhino area. We hung around for the trainee demonstration & Maddie was enthralled! 

She was the little girl waving her arm around & trying to answer ever question, even when she didn't really know the answer. Silly girl! And she asked a ton of questions. The poor trainer was probably glad to see us go. Lol, but she was super pt with all if Maddie's questions. 

I really love that zoo. :)

And we have been hanging out & having fun with family. Maddie might be getting a little bit spoiled by Aunt Ruth & Uncle Rich...maybe ;)

Overall having fun. And we went shopping for Broncos everything. We bought a few items, most notable being the Bronco-head. So now she has this one to go along with the cheesehead. I'll have to get a pic with her wearing it during the game tomorrow. 

Well, we are getting ready for a Christmas party & Maddie has a date with Santa! Have fun!

Leaving on a jet plane...

This is a short blog since I'm doing last minute things to get ready for our flight tomorrow. We are all excited & ready for Colorado. :) 

I need some down time away from work & stress. 

Oh yea! I got my bonafide laminated card that says I finished TB Chemotherapy today!! No more TB tests for me! :) 

And I said goodbye to my sweet grandma nurse. She is retiring at the end of this month. She really did turn into a nice lady. :) 

So the TB crap is officially behind me! Yay! 

On to Colorado! 

Goodnight friends!

Dec 1

Happy Monday everyone. I guess it's a good thing I'm not too interested in this MNF game, pretty done in from work...and then shivering my butt off out to my car. I guess I missed the memo that said the temp was gonna be 25 degrees colder when I left work than when I had arrived. I wished I had something more protective than my light jacket. And can I say...Thank The Lord for heated seats!!

I had a good day with good coworkers & better friends. :) 

Something came up in conversation today...I want to know how unethical people sleep at night. Are they missing some part in their brain, or do they just have a switch that they can turn on or off? How can they intentionally set out to hurt people & then go home & have a normal family life? 

This isn't about any one person in particular, just thinking about actions of others & it just baffles me. 

I mean, seriously...I don't know how I can feel extremely guilty about something as small as unintentionally hurting someones feelings, or accidentally taking something from someone else....and other people go on as if nothing happened when they seriously & intentionally try to hurt another. There is no way that I could sleep at night. Really. On the not-very-often occasion that I would take my vocera (small walkie-talkie like phone at work) home accidentally, only to discover it about a half mile from the hospital when it beeps...I have so much guilt if I don't turn around & take it back then. For reals. It's silly, but I think of how crappy it is when we are short of them & hate to add that frustration to someone else. 

 I guess that God has a purpose for us all & even those people are put on the world for a reason. I still don't get it though. 

Don't get me wrong, I break the rules from time to time...like speeding (sorry) or  not paying every bill on time. Or maybe drinking & acting like a fool! :) 

It was just a question I had asked another today & it was rolling around in my head on the drive home. So I thought I would throw it out here for my friends & family to ponder. Isn't this world we live in amazing? 

Ok, I need to hit the sack, another day another $ tomorrow. So, goodnight friends! Sleep tight! 

p.s. How great was the Broncos game last night? :) Go Broncos!
