84 - Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal...oh you're so sweet! Taj Mahal...you never miss a beat! You read my emotions, you know what I need, and you came to snuggle with me to help the snuggle need.

Thank you my little ragdoll kitty!

83 - Failed Reunion at Liberty Park

A friend and I tried to set up a reunion with people we attended school with. This was not your normal school, this was a very small, private school with just over a 100 students, K - 12 grade. The school was so small it was like everyone was family.
So you would think since we all felt that way, people would want to show up if they still lived here. People even confirmed they were going to meet us.
Unfortunately, it was only my friend, her two kids, and me. It was quite disappointing. Two other people said later they were there and couldn't find us. It's still frustrating. Don't confirm you're going to go if you have no intentions of going.
This was a failed attempt. We are not planning something like this again, that will have to be someone else.
We were so disappointed...we might have to do some "housekeeping" to keep flakes away. If you don't want to see me, there is no point in saying we're friends.
Can you sense the annoyance in my tone?

82 - Drive

Driving home from school, the sun was just setting after a rainy afternoon. It was a beautiful and I had to capture it.
I hate driving into the sun, sometimes though the view is worth it. Thank goodness for super awesome phones that take great pictures!

81 - Listeners and Speakers

Homework time...homework. I do a lot of studying these days. I'm not complaining, I love school. This book is for my public speaking class. I was entertained by the meaning of listening.
Often I find myself struggling to be a good listener. I'm making it a person goal to be a better listener and not so selective.

80 - Memorial for a Princess

The memorial was beautiful and perfect. Even though it seemed different at first, it was by far the most beautiful memorial I have ever been too. The parents held it together and said hello to everyone.

This picture here is of the balloon release for the little princess. It was sad to watch the balloons go but they all looked so pretty floating away together.

Their daughter will forever remain in my heart. She held a special place their even though I wasn't always around. She was courageous and is a great example of a person who tried to win the battle no matter what.


79 - Princess Crown

Although this crown is beautiful, I didn't buy it for great reasons. One of my friends recently lostly their beautiful little girl to Spinal Muscular Atrophy (MSA). Instead of a funeral, they decided to do something completely untraditional. They had a princess ball in memory of her. I was in need of a crown and found this adorable one at the party store.

78 - Best Brew in SLC

Ahhhh Beans and Brews . This is a great way to start the day. They seriously have the best coffee in SLC.
Not much to say other than I love me some delicious coffee.

77 - My Cube Called Home

One of my colleagues was traveling for business recently. She agreed to take a photo journal of her trip for me...well more like sending me silly pictures through the days she was on the road. I appreciated it a ton.
In return, I started sending her random pictures too. She was having coffee so I sent a picture of my cube at work. Not much to look at but this is where I spend 40 plus hours a week. It's my second home for sure.
This is my cube called home....

76 - Gym Time

Ah, the gym. I started going to the gym with a girl friend in the morning before work. It's hard to get up, but really I like going. I get to spend a little time hanging out with my friend before a long day of work.
This is the gym that we go to. It's small and usually not busy which is nice. We don't have to wait for machines or anything, everything is always available for us to hop right on.

75 - Walking Lady

The woman in the picture is smaller than me. I've seen her walking down this road every day on my way to work for the last few years. Same time each day just walking with intent....rain, sunshine, snow, wind...whatever the weather she is always out there.
Some times I've wondered if I should stop to see if she needs a ride, and then I don't. I always wonder where she is going.

One day she won't be there and my ride to work will seem like it's missing something.
