Trip to Texas Tech

Traveled to Texas Tech University to watch my nephew play basketball. He's starting freshman, standing tall at 6'10".

Had a blast and it was nice to see family.

The game was exciting,especially after Coach Pat Knight was ejected from the game. See he's not on the bench! Nebraska won, but #15 played and that's what counted.

I'm so connected now

We have a new President

I watched the inauguration all day long. Not much interest at my office, kinda surprised me. I found myself emotional when he took the oath and gave his speech.

Obama!

I've been stuck to the television since yesterday watching the inauguration events. Yesterday's concert was so awesome...Bono, U2, Bruce and John Mellencamp. It's so historic and amazing.

Tomorrow is the day. Can't wait

Back on the blog

I finally made time to post.  I have photos and things made.  I had a busy holiday season and caught a very bad sore throat.  I'm thinking it was a serious sign to stop talking and LISTEN.  It's amazing what you hear when you're quiet.  

Mirror

For some time I promised Jason I would make him a new frame for an old mirror he was going to throw out.  Now if you know nothing about me, you should know this.... I work on "jobi time".  I have this thing about time....no concept of time actually.  I don't like clocks or watches and time floats in odd ways in my world.   I love the night and hate to sleep.   It does make it a challenge since the rest to the world has this thing about clocks.  But, back to this  mirror.  It has taken me several years, I think.  I'm finished with it .  Weird but once I started it, it was finished in "no time".  I love it and will be delivering it soon. (jobi time, again).

Christmas

We had a formal holiday dinner with a small group of friends.  I found this set of dishes at random stop at a random antique store on a random day.  They were meant to be found this random shopping stop.

Mountains

In November we spent a week in the White Mts in northeastern Arizona.  No snow, so no show angels.

*okay just enough snow for snowballs*

MINI is mine!!! & it's blue!

I have been wanting a Mini for the past year if not longer.  I looked and looked and test drove and finally I found her in October.  She's blue, tiny, fast, fun, & perfect.  

*Not actual size*

Dress day

My close friend's daughter is getting married and I was invited to the wedding dress party.  When she tried on the first dress, we all loved it, when she tried on the second dress we didn't love it as much and same went for the third dress, BUT when she tried on the last dress we fell in LOVE with it.  

Historic!

Yes we can
Great day
So proud
President Obama!

The whole view of the blues

Blue with envy

As you may recall my photos of my work space at the beginning of the month. If not check it out on my earlier post.

I finally finished painting all my recycled office supplies. I'm extremely pleased with the end result. Yesterday I rearranged and set up my cubical and I just love it! It's a warm and comfortable work area. I wasn't very productive the pass couple of weeks and the work mojo was off kilter. But, today it was so perfect and productive.

Cruiser Bike

Here's my bike. It's fun to ride and I'm thinking we should take strolls over the lunch hour, too.

Chanel

This is CHANEL, my niece!
