My BFF




These are 2 pictures of my new exercise room. We are just waiting for the heater and air conditioner to come. It is really a hardship to exercise out there!!! (Ha-Ha)
I hope that everyone had a good Thanksgiving. I had a really good Thanksgiving. I got sick with the stomach bug the Sat. after Thanksgiving. It has taken awhile to feel all the way better.
Shane and I rode our bikes on Sunday afternoon. I didn't feel very well but gave it a good effort. We rode up to High Creek (down by Richmond). It was a really pretty ride. I would like to do it another day when I feel better.
On Thurs. Shane will go back down to the Mount Ogden Eye Center to get his eyes touched up! He is pretty nervous.
The other day while driving a person who I call "pinchface" passed us and seemed to have a really hard time waving to me that day. So Arie asked me why Pinchface and myself do not like each other. I told Arie that Pinchface was my BFF ,that I totally liked her and that Pinchface just didn't like me. Well Arie believed that and thought that was a good answer, but the boys were snickering because they knew some of the really great things that my BFF has done to me. So at our house we have done some joking about how my BFF waves at me, and how I wish that she would just give me a 5 finger wave. Last Sunday in primary my BFF's daughter said a talk in Primary. Yes, that meant that my BFF came into Primary to listen. Arie saw her, hopped up out of her seat and ran up to me (in the front of the room) and announced "Mom, there is your BFF." I was just dying. I do not think that my BFF heard!
Lesson learned- be careful what you share with your kids even if you are kidding around!
