Company Fiesta

 All right, as mentioned previously, last night was the company party. It was held at an Italian place up in LA, and the traffic to get there was HORRENDOUS and took me like, 90 minutes and I was SO over it. Then, in true LA fashion, it took me another 15 minutes to find parking, then the parking was about a mile from the restaurant. I was so mad by the time I got there haha. Dinner was fine, nothing too exciting, and then it was just a dance party all night. Everyone was pretty drunk except for yours truly (I did have 1 Shirley Temple, so fun) so it was interesting to see how the drunkness kept going all night. 

Such a fun time! 

Epifanio's Fav Pastime

 I headed over to Utah today, my dad is having his retirement party this week, so I had to come for the festivities of course! Of course, one of the things Epifanio had to do was to work at my computer. 

Then I had to spend the rest of the night fighting this cat off and out of my room, he would not leave me alone, he knows that I don't like a cat haha.

Like sir, get away from my pillows please. 

He's a Hacker

 Today I had to work, but Epifanio was here with me all day, so of course he also worked. First we had to get some cute pics

And then he kept wanting to type on my computer, so during my lunch, I let him pretend to. Then of course he just was typing gibberish as fast as he could, which reminded me of hackers in movies, so I asked him to play that for me. 

It makes me laugh so so hard! I've had so much fun with them here this week and I'll miss them when they leave. 

We're all doing equal work

 Today, the final day before the pictures will be taken, so the final push towards being ready. We had planned a full day of things. Husband and my BIL would be painting the basement, and my sister would be cleaning everything (she has recently started a cleaning company! How exciting!) So since we still had the fellas to worry about, I was on kid duty. I occupied them at first by watching a movie, they chose Sonic 2, of course. Then we needed ore painting supplies, so we all trekked on over to the store. Epifanio carried the tape, as he is a giant man who can do anything.

After a full day of ... everything, we then went to have dinner and I learned that Epifanio eats his ramen noodles in the weirdest way possible. 

What an absolutely insane weirdo. 

Cleaning, cleaning and more cleaning

 I don't know if I've mentioned on here yet, but we are moving! Husband got a job at a university in California, so we are moving our wagon out to Cali after the summer. It's been a whirlwind since we've learned this, and we are listing our house for sale this week. To anticipate listing it, and for the pictures, we have been working non-stop for the last couple of weeks on fixing it up. There hasn't been anything major that we've been working on, just a bunch of cosmetic work. Today, I worked on getting some old glue off of a bathtub. For reasons unknown, the previous owners put some trim on the actual bathtub. So when we redid the floors down there a couple of years ago, we had to take this trim off, and it left the glue. Blergh. So today I decided to tackle that job. It was slow going. I would spray it with a cleaning solution, let it sit for a minute, then I used a scraper to scrape at it and just kept doing that ...over and over and over. Here's what it looked like before I started: 

Then, after several hours of repeating the cycle: 

It worked! It looks great! I am so hype! 

Black Friday 2021

 And now, following Thanksgiving, we get Black Friday celebrations! 

I have to work today, so no shopping for me.

But, I did take this picture of myself at work with a filter, and then I spent all day laughing at it. 

Work, Hard Work

 So, for our anniversary, Husband got me another Lego set. This one... the most amazing of all ... (okay not really)

Lego Friends! 

It took me 2 full days (okay, not full, in my spare time) to put it together, but now I am done! I am so excited for how great it looks. And I can't wait for the next one! 

Hard-Workin' Baby

My SIL and BIL have been staying with us for the past couple of weeks with their 2 year old boy. Today he wanted to wash some cars, so I let him.

Okay, technically I did crop it in a way that his mom is right by him and you can't tell here, but its funnier if he's by himself! He had such a great time.

Lovely Day for a Lunch

Today, at the office, they threw a potluck pre-Thanksgiving lunch. We all banded together to make taco salads, and holy cow were they delicious.

I don’t like that many things (for example. tomatoes, onions, salsa. etc.) so mine looks boring but it was oh so delicious. I can’t believe Thanksgiving is already here, guys!

Summer Party

Today was my work summer party, and it was chock-a-block full of activities, starting from the AM and going into night. The day kicked off with the Fun Run, a 2 mile race that’s always a good time. I struggled a little with running this day, but I still did ok:

After a few hours of working, Chelle and I headed out at 11ish to get our golf on. After we set up in the cart,

We drove out in the cart, and got to enjoy the view

The course was gorgeous, but it sucked. There were so many hills in the course that it was hard to play on, but we did our best, of course.

We ended up having a lot of fun, though, and that’s really all that matters, not the score (which we didn’t really keep) or how well you did (which really wasn’t all that good, ha! But I forgot to do sunscreen, so by the end of the day, I was burned.

But at least now, it doesn’t hurt all that bad. And after the golf, we had a dinner, and a raffle (which I swear I will never win one of the raffles, it’s gotta be rigged!) and then, the party was over. It’s always a good time, the summer party, and it lets me practice my golf once a year.
