American Idol

I don’t know about you, but I am not afraid to admit that I am an American Idol fan.  I was also somewhat happy and sad to see Amanda Overmyer leave last week.  Honestly, I thought I would be thrilled, but as I went back and watched her last performance, I was a little sad.

Does anyone notice that Simon contradicts his advice sometimes?  He told Amanda, “Your boring…” and when Brooke White tried to do something different, he told her not to… So Brooke won’t get boring?

I’m not going to lie, Brooke is my favorite.  I guess that’s why it is America’s choice!



Things are looking up…

Stress?  What stress?

 That’s right!  I am stress free and moving on!

Nick gets a whole week off from school next week!!  I am so excited to get to see him and do things together.  We will be heading back up to Glenwood Springs, this time to look at Apartments and Rentals.

I will be continuing with Alpha Relief from home.  For real this time.  I got an official offer!

Why do we have to be so sad before getting so happy?



Depressed

Yeah, that’s me.  I’m not going to lie. 

I’m not depressed in the I-need-medication-ice-cream-and-sleep kind of way.  I’m just plain bummed.  At work, we had a frank conversation yesterday.  The frankness came from the fact that it isn’t reasonable to keep me on from distance at this time.

That means… I am job hunting.  Job hunting is so gross.  I looked in the classifieds and it is really hard to make a decision on 2 lines of print describing a job… what?!?   Do they expect anyone to do that??

I want to know who I will be working for… I want them to know me…

So… if anyone is looking for an employee in the Glenwood Springs, CO area… here I am.  Depressed with the potential to be very happy.

benwedding-030.jpgI went to a wedding this weekend.  In Orange County.  That’s right.  I visited the OC.  I feel so much more cool now that I did last week.

My brother-in-law, Ben,  got married to a beautiful woman, Hope.  Ben and Hope.  I love them.  I posted pictures here.  You can take a look if you want.



Waking up

I woke up in the middle of the night (4am) to the sound of my dog (Bruce) barking at something.  He doesn’t usually do this.  My mind immediately filled with thoughts of someone trying to get into my home.

I launched out of bed and creep-ed downstairs.  Bruce was about half-way down looking toward the door.  I reached my hand down to let him know that I was okay.  All of his back hair was spiked.  My heart beat a little faster.  I reached the front door with my faithful steed by my side… and peeked out the window.  Nothing!

Ok, this is good. 

Next, I made sure that my door was locked (it was).  And we walked to the back door.  Looked out. Again Nothing!

I kneel-ed and hugged my dog.  I love him!!  I told him that he was the best and a very good dog.  And we went back to bed.

He curled up by my feet until I went back to sleep.  I would like to believe that he was thinking, “Amie, I’m watching out for you.”

That made me feel good.



Glenwood Springs

This weekend was fun. 

 We went to Glenwood Springs and looked at homes in the area.  We started with 6 prospects and at the end of the day, there was only one home that was a realistic possibility.

Not too depressing.  It is kind of fun to see a home that you could possibly see yourself living in.

On to the next step… pre-approval of a loan.
