It's OK

So my new blogging friend, the Prairie Princess, has been doing a linkup lately, and I thought it was high time that I joined up with this one! Its OK Thursday with Amber!

Its Ok Thursdays

IT'S OK................

.....that I was negative my daily calories (as in I ate 2x as many calories as I'm supposed to in one day) in my fitness pal on Saturday. Buffalo Wild Wings and Papa Johns will do that to a girl!

......that all I can think about is the sandy beach and friends that are waiting for me in CA in 6 days

......that I listened to the same 21 songs for my 3 hour drive on Sunday

......that I am not particularly excited about work lately

......that I am extremely frustrated with losing weight

......that my cowhide stool project is totally NOT going according to the plan in my head

......that my house manages to stay a disaster regardless of how many days I clean

.......that I'm already looking forward to Red Dirt at Red Rocks concert.....a full 2 months away

.......that I'm currently scheming the Dart Board Drive vacation.....gettin' in a car with a dart board....lets see where I end up!?

.......that I go to the city to shop and I end up feeling guilty about spending money.....BUT I'll be sporting some super cute racerback tanks while I'm working out to lose said weight (see above)

.......that I'm contemplating a sabbatical from Facebook

......that I'm worried about having enough important things to say to keep blogging faithfully

......that I would like my roommate to move back

    Ugh, don't even get me started on the weight thing. Or the fact that I have a half marathon in 3 weeks and have run about 3 miles total in the last week. BAD BAD BAD.

    I like the new playlist---not as much as last month, but you tell the dj I approve. :)

    I failed you and didn't do It's Ok link up today! I did a different one! But, I'll be back on next Thursday, don't you worry :) There's just a lot of good linkups on Thursdays!

    I took a 2 month sabbatical from FB and it was AMAAAAZING. You should definitely do it.

WILW: laugh 'til it hurts

Image
[Linking up with Jamie for What I'm Loving Wednesday] A few years back, OKTrailerPark Friend and Snowboard Friend and I went to Canyons in Utah for a girls weekend. We had a slope side condo, reduced price lift tickets, wine and the resort swimming pool. Now when we vacation we do it up right. We snowboarded and rode the alpine slide by day and by night we soaked in the pool, wore sweatpants, cooked dinner in our condo, played cards, drank wine and watched this YouTube video....over and over and over and over. the.best.ab.workout.ever. Whenever I'm having a sub-par day, I pull this video out. I mean I do have it favorited on my work computer even! If this video doesn't make you laugh, go to the emergency room NOW! Here is a little note from Ed and Ross's mom, who posted the video. As you can read Ed and Ross were best friends! PLEASE NOTE..... THESE CLIPS WERE TAKEN OVER A PERIOD OF 18 MONTHS.... ED WAS A VERY GOOD BOY MOST OF THE TIME.... I HAVE HOURS

What i'm loving wednesday: winter

Image
[Linking up with Jamie at  This Kind of Love for What I'm Loving Wednesday!] One kind word can warm three winter months. ~Japanese Proverb I'm LOVING..........Winter I love winter! but I hate shoveling snow. As it snowed around here (finally AND 2 days in a row!), I thought about my hatred for shoveling snow....I think if it were either light before I went to work or after I got home, maybe shoveling wouldn't be so bad. So snow and winter go hand-in-hand, how can I love winter if I don't like shoveling snow?   Playing in it of course! Christmas markets, throwing snowballs, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, sleigh rides, hot tubbing, cabins and fireplaces, hot snock-o-late, big snowflakes, crisp untouched fields blanketed in fresh snow. It's a clean slate and I love it! Have a great winter and enjoy all it has to offer! Here is a picture I took a while back my way home from snowboarding at Beaver Mountain, Utah (a great little ski area btw). This is

Losing the farm

Image
When I tell people I work for the Farm Service Agency, I either get a knowing nod like "oh you are one of those government employees" or I get a "what do you actually do?". I've started leading off with working for the US Department of Agriculture because most people have actually heard of that that. We are a small agency within USDA that administers the farm subsidy, disaster and some insurance programs of the Farm Bill. The farm bill is made up of 15 different titles addressing different areas. The 15 titles or parts of the Farm Bill are , the ones that are bolded are the only ones that I directly work with through FSA. Commodity - provides income support to growers of select commodities Conservation - provides funding for farm environmental stewardship thought programs that improve management practices, retire less productive land and protect natural resources Agricultural Trade & Food Aid - funds US agriculture export a
