I have to admit to you dear readers that i am addicted to fallout. I played Fallout 3 religiously until i got every achievement on every level and then i stopped playing for an entire year. But, when a friend offered to let me borrow new Vegas and i stayed up wide eyed playing it, it was clear that i had not overcome my addiction. But its OK, i am really really good at it and i can rationalize my Fallout addiction by pretending its helping me with my survival instincts. Luckily i am not allowed to play when the girl child is awake because she dances in front of the TV the entire time. Anyway! Its a beautiful day so get out there and enjoy the fresh mountain air!

Wednesday: biking to work and playing in the sun at 10:48 AMI think that all businesses should bring back the "bring your daughter/son to work" days.

No Sleep Till Thursday! at 11:44 PMWednesday is a strange phenomenon. There seems to be a million things going on on any given Wednesday. This week is no exception. there are so many events happening i get a migraine just thinking of which ones to go to. so take a deep breath get out your planner and celebrate Wednesday right. Start of your day of fun at the nature center for Wild Wednesdays. Can you walk like a bear? Get the answers to this question and learn how to identify the amazing autographs that animals leave behind.

A few years ago, after i had my daughter, i decided to go all Eco with my cleaning products. I found some great alternative to those harsh and icky chemical cleaners but sometimes they can get pricey. after doing some research i found that the same ingredients in the Eco products are things i already had around. Today the Ogden nature center is having an Eco-friendly cleaning product workshop This will be a fun and productive evening spent making non-toxic cleaning supplies for your home. Learn some simple recipes for healthier cleaning products using items commonly found in everyone's pantry. Create household cleaners that will be both easy on the environment and on your wallet. You'll leave with freshly made window cleaner, furniture polish, all purpose cleaner and a host of recipes to create your own green cleaning. OK if your wanting to get out and have some fun then enough lallygagging about its time to speed up the pace. head on over to the union station for jingle bell jazz at the station with the WSU jazz ensemble. Due to the closing of WSU on Tuesday because of a blizzard warning, the November 23rd concert by the WSU Jazz Ensemble was canceled. It has been rescheduled as part of the Jazz at the Station programming, Wednesday, December 8th. In addition to holiday tunes, this concert will feature the music of the Big Band era. Some of the pieces will feature vocalist Sarah Marshall. Also featured on the concert will be the WSU Jazz Combo. No music is more evocative of a period of American History than the Big Band sound. The remarkable thing is how it still continues to appeal to audiences of all ages.

The weekends over, back to work. at 9:48 PM I don't know about you but Mondays are my least favorite day. After a weekend of sleeping in and staying up late and taking my time with all my duties i find myself suddenly unprepared for all of my responsibilities come Monday. My husbands alarm goes off and my daughter wakes up wanting food and i am just not ready. Nothing would make me happier than to get to stay in jammies and watch rugrats all day with the tot but alas i have things to do. So, if your like me and your rushing to get all of your errands done , that you may have put off on Friday, before the sun goes down than i have the perfect Monday blues cure for you.

Practice yoga surrounded by soothing music, candlelight and minimal instructions, just a relaxing atmosphere. Tuition is $45 bucks but you get this yoga class every Monday until the 27Th.
