sunny, windy, rainy, hailing a tornado and now snow! its April23!

So what is up with the weather out here, goodness. Yesterday was a great, it was sunny in the 70's and I was in capris and a t-shirt. Then out of no where the sky turned dark, the wind began to blow and we were in a tornado watch.... it was kinda funny to watch my co workers freak out and run for the stairwell while I stood at the window and was anxiously watching.... hehehe, oh the things you learn from growing up in Nebraska.
So after the tornado warnings were over the sky remained black and then it began to rain really hard and then hail! I was actually in the Wal-Mart gathering some things I needed for a class and it sounded like we were getting attacked! The hail on the metal roof was insainly loud!!!!!!! Then it just continued to rain the rest of the night. Today when I woke up- SNOW~! Its been snowing most of the morning and it is still snowing around lunch time. I would say we have about 4-5 inches. And here is the kicker!!!!!! ITS APRIL 23! but that is Colorado weather for you, and NE weather as well......
oh well!!!!!!!! good day to stay under the covers :)

Ever wonder why???

I have been doing a lot of driving for work lately and some interesting questions have come to mind.... I catch myself asking hummmm wonder why.

Like I wonder why the sky was created blue. What if it were created green and the grass blue. We would be ok with it, because that was how it was created many years ago.

or

I wonder why the I see a person in hospital attire ( a gown) pulling her oxygen tank and smoking a cigarette.

or

Why sometimes it seems that bad things always happen to good people.

or

Why do we yawn? is it really because we are tired or need more oxygen?

or

Why does it take us 9mo to have a baby and some animals weeks or even days?

do you ever just sit there and wonder on things?

get rid of the winter background!

I have had numerous people tell me to get rid of the winter background! So I figured I had missed St Patty day backgrounds, Easter backgrounds.... I had better not miss the pretty pastels of SPRING. So, today I changed it. I look outside and see the neighbor kids in shorts and flip flops, and I too am in flip flops... it should be a beautiful day here in Co Springs, I need to get outside today and do something as I am not on cal today!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its that time.....

Let the snowflakes fall
Let the latte machines hum
Let the hibernation of the parkas end
Let the hot tubs start bubbling
Let the grills start grilling
Let the shops start bustling
Let the moguls take shape
Let the village awaken

Its Cancer Camp time
I leave in 3 days for a week of fun with my amazing bald heads.
I will try to post when I am there, put will get pictures when I get back for sure!!!

Hot Dog Theory

So on the last season of the Bachelorette Jillian Harris ( A hot dog theory major) informed America of her HOT DOG THEORY. I personally have used this a time or too and have found it to be pretty right on. Here is what she says:
Jillian Harris
Jillian Harris
Jillian Harris, A Hot Dog Theory Major

“Ketchup guys are the easiest to explain,” she tells ET. “I call them mama’s boys. They may not be the right guy for me, but they are good honest guys. They will never cheat. They are usually being dumped, not the one doing the dumping. They usually have a close relationship with their mom. They are good solid guys, who will always take care of a woman.

Raw onion guys never get married according to my theory. Raw onion guys are just raw. They don’t care if their breath stinks. They wear their baseball caps to the side and they just never get married. Fried onion guys get married several times. I don’t know why that is.

Sauerkraut guys: I have dated a few sauerkraut guys in the past, so they are fun and spontaneous, but just like sauerkraut, they give you heartburn and they break your heart. The sauerkraut guys are the ones we are attracted to but are sorry in the end, just like when we put sauerkraut on our dogs.

Mustard seems to be the guy that I am looking for. Mustard is a good combination between the ketchup and sauerkraut, so the mustard guy knows how to put you in your place when you need it, but he knows how to love you and take care of you. The only problem with the mustard guy for girls who aren’t ready to settle down yet is he is too easy of an answer.

Relish I found that relish guys are supper artsy. They are like a ketchup guy, but they are writers or love comic books, are super close with their moms, and have a hard time moving out of the house and growing up.

Thanks Jillian for that bit of humor.... but my question is what happens when they like chili and cheese?????
