In the movies...

(this picture was taken when I tried out for a part in Star wars....did not quite get the part.) :P (2002)



Today I would consider my life a comedy. I woke at 3:20 am- Spent 6 hours training 3 new girls, while being evaluated by the corporate quality assurance lady. THEN was sent to Salt Lake to the Job Fair to represent my company- while getting text messages about how they have just moved my pastry case, made my girls throw away my hoagie buns, and sending my newest girl home for wearing the wrong color of pants. This may seem like my life is often a drama flick- but no- I still finish the day, tripping down the stairs, not getting a joke, of making a total fool of myself. thus- the comedy.
I have to still smile- be me- and move on.

Some times my life is a horror film. Usually, if I am home alone and get spooked...then all sorts of craziness inters my imagination, resulting in the mind picture : My Horrific Demise.

My life is at times a romantic chick flick. Sorry- I can't give all his secrets away- if I did that everyone may be as happy as me- and I want to stay the luckiest gal in town.

At the moment- I want my life to be a dream. Well no. I want to be asleep- dreaming. Wake me up if you need me.

High Priestess of Awesomeness

She was 6 feet tall. Thin, White long hair, a CUTE elephant to ride, a bag of fun toys, Many many many friends. She could save anyone, everyone. She Loved flowers- Picked them everyday. Her favorite place to be- was within the walls of a old deserted, haunted school- on an island on the lake. She played her favorite games- anytime she could convince her friends to play with her- Hide and seek was probably her favorite, but a giant cow changing smurfs would also top the list. LIL and WyN to help her with a fast task and keep her laughing. Adese to whomp on anything in her way. Chrys, Stimpee, and Caster to help her get things crossed off her log. She had friends DEL to use her for her powers, Zimba to instruct her in the ways of profession, Irie to listen to her whine, Who and Rip to giggle with, Verton to sing to her and PE to always be there. She had the prettiest clothes. The pinkest wand any girl could ever hope for- and a gorgeous hair clip. ( She sure misses that clip.) Her pixels were perfect.

She WAS- was.

Sad silly waste of time.

Sad to think about anyway.

Flat Face


Do you know about "Flat Face?" When Jordan is sad- he has this hysterical pout where his frown pulls his whole face down leaving it completely flat. Seriously- FLAT. Sometimes its so funny I STILL laugh out loud- and I have been seeing it since he was 2. I looked and looked and looked for a picture of "flat face," but no where- I can't find one. This one gives you an inkling of what it my be like- but really- Nope not at all. This is something I have to document- before its too late. Must take a picture of flat face. Must do it soon. Must not laugh out of this chair every time I look at it.



(Picture was taken when Jordan was4 1/2 yah he was a Cutie pie.)

2 Pep's and an ICB Please

In the mid 90's Little ceasars Pizza was moving up the delivery food chain fast. but their success was not long lived. bad cooperate decision? too many pizza companies, I'm not sure what sealed their fate. I worked next to a little ceasars for several years during this time so I watch the rise and fall of this empire. Being so close to one, I got to know the staff and they introduced me to the the Italian cheese bread. At the time this was a closely kept secret. I attribute the lack of advertisement of the "ICB" as part of their down fall. Italian cheese bread is a favorite by many and espeacially me!

Little ceasars was on fast downward spiral, sure to see the same fate as Godfathers, Pony Express, Bug & fritz, and countless others, out done by the pizza Giants, Pizza Hut and Dominoes. On the brink of desperation someone had the Idea of Hot and Ready Pizza. Now several years later Little ceasars, a company facing the end, has now redefined the pizza industry. Now I would agree that Little ceasars in the equivalent to McDonalds of the burger industry, and I love a good gourmet Pizza, but for a cheap quick meal Little ceasars is the only way to go.

So if your familiar with the terms 2 pep's and and ICB you may already know. On our trip to Little Ceasars recently the girl behind the counter told us something amazing. For the same $5.00 they will make you a whole pizza into the ICB. You have to ask for it and you to have it made but wow it was worth the wait. I would post a picture but it didn't make it home! if you have never had an ICB, don't walk.. run to the nearest Little ceasars and get one!

(if you were wondering... yes this is another Dave post)

sometimes I have random thoughts.

This is somewhat of a journal- or at least bit of me that I could save. I have had an odd week with a lot of interesting moments. Yesterdays post was random thoughts I have about myself. Work, friends, motherhood- it applied to it all. I did get a new position at work that is a bigger challenge. I am WAY excited. I also have some personal goal that I have plans to accomplish and that I can do too! Just kind of a path changing week. Thank Goodness I have Dave and the kids to walk it with me!!! As a side note- I was listening to the radio on the way to work...so yah for 4 blocks. I am assuming the DJ's had a fortune teller type in studio and I only heard a few minutes of the call. a young woman called and said- " I want to start my family, but I want to go to school- I was wondering..." the woman cut her off- and said "I just want to make one thing clear- We bring children into this world to have them live among us- not to live among them. You can have it all- and your baby is going to be a girl." I totally believe in education- but this statement bothers me. A mothers primary responsibility is to nurture, love teach, and shape the lives of her children. I am still bothered. I KNOW we all have different lives and things come up- but to be told- children are to live among us- like what? cats? And when you go on vacation? please Kennel your children.




Look at that face??? It is a privilege to be called her Mommy.

Fast post.

You KNOW you can do it. You just KNOW it- Every fiber of your being is sure of it. And! You would do a GREAT job. No doubts. Not one. You just have to be given the chance. Its the most frustrating feeling. You KNOW. But how can you prove it with out being given the chance.

And Patience- is NOT one of MY virtues.
