Oh the weather outside is...weather.

Don't you think it's soo funny how that weather man made the whole salt lake valley in fear for their lives as if this were the blizzards of all blizzards, and if we didn't get off the roads by 3 o'clock pm, then we'd probably be frozen into a cube and not thawed until next March?  AAANNNDDD it didn't even hit until 6... so much for sending elementary students home at noon!  I was so excited to go outside to a winter (almost) wonderland and  instead, I leave work in a hurry at 5 pm, and on my drive home I see this mean dark grey storm cloud coming in.  Suddenly, from my surprise there was a slight 'flutter' of barely visable wispy snow.  I'm not even joking you, I yelled "THERE IT IS!"  That tretcherous snow storm we've been preparing ourselves for all day.  I'm grateful that I made it home before it got bad though... and Brando and I decided to hurry and make a run to Smiths so we could stock up on candles and a flash light just in case and plan for the worse.  Did you know that Smiths doesn't carry flash lights?  We searched and searched and finally asked someone and they said no...  Pffffft.  Target would have had it...We did however get a 3 wick smelly good Apple Cinnamon candle that B picked out and it lights up our living room quite nicely in the pitch black dark (don't worry, we actually tested it out).  We decided that we had enough in the windy ouchy snow blowing in our faces and made yummy super not good for your nachos at home!  They were SO good.  My Gma gave me a bushell of chilis to make chili verde and I must say... The spaniard in me sure knows how to shine!  Talk about spicey and DE-LISH-US!  haha we ate it all in 3 days and I don't think my stomach understood the word 'Spice' until this weekend.  But it sure was satisfying.  So with our left overs we made nachos, with beans, and cheese, and taco seasoning, oooh and chicken!  A whole pan of nachos-GONE-  Sick, I know but it was oh so good.  hehe...

   So, for some more good news, I am off of work until Monday!  WAHOO, be jealous!  For all I care, it can snow non stop until Sunday night.  I would love to go sledding this weekend and possibly hit up the slopes!  Unfortunately, I'm too broke for slopes, so i'll just have to live with sledding.  How much fun does that sound?    Also, did I ever tell you about my final day, Day 5 of Bikram Yoga?  Yeah, well it was awesome.  What a rewarding class that was for me.  It was suuuper intense, but by the 3rd day I couldn't wait to go again.  I would have gone 6 times, but I was invited to the Jazz game and turned down yoga.  Oh well.  And my goal was to get at least 7 but i'd say considering the fact that one of the teachers said they try and incourage the trial members to come 5 times, which I did, I had it pretty good!  Plus, my friend who I signed up with ( I will not name names ;] ) only did it ONCE! So... ha, beat that!  Seriously though, I would highly recommend trying the 10 day trial and make a goal to go about 5 times.  Now I need a new hobby or something fun.  Speaking of hobby, I've started something fun and warm for winter but I've rambled on a little too long for my (and yours) liking haha.  I hate reading those blogs that are FOREVER long with no pictures so I will update you this week :)  loves.  Happy Thanksgiving if you don't hear from me until after then.  I will enjoy my looong holiday weekend off of work thats for sure.  Oh yeah, and you better believe i'll be out shopping and fighting the black friday FREAKS. 

Stay warm.....cmar
