Oh....Hello!

It has been so long since I blogged that I forgot my password to get into Blogger.
I had to do the password recovery thingie.
But here I am!

I just wanted to pop in and post a quickie to show all five of you that I am still alive.

Ten Things I Suck AT:
1- Consistent Blogging. You can't argue with that one.

2- Consistent anything...Sometimes there is dinner, other times you are fending for yourself here.

3- Clothing repairs. I have a laundry basket full of shirts that need buttons sewn back on, or jackets that need a small tear sewn up. I don't think the original owners of said clothing even fit those particular items any longer. Let's not even talk about the time I STAPLED on the Scout shirt patches. And I was the Cub Master at the time.

4- Sleep schedules. If I have a good book, I am reading til 3:00am. If not, I might zonk out during the 10:00 news.

5- Removing unwanted hair. My eyebrows look like Sasquatch. Always. And in the winter, my razor gets a break. Tights come in handy for church. And long boots.

6- Resisting Junk. And to CLEARLY specify...by "junk" I mean "junk food"--not the more popular reference to male genitalia. Which, for the record, I have a long-standing reputation of resistance.
JUNK food. If there is an open box, bag or package of cookies, chips, or candy, it will soon be an empty bag. Willpower. Wish I had some.

7- Sudoku. There are just too many NUMBERS.

8- Praying in public. Like for Sunday School opening prayer, or a family dinner. I always pray myself into a corner. "We are grateful for the beautiful weather...and for weather that is....um, uhhhh...(crickets)...pleasing unto thee??!!
(Fail.)

9- Finding an address. Unless the address can be found using landmarks, like "the pink house right behind Target." Truthfully, I am not even sure of where my Norths and Wests are at any given time. Pizza delivery will never be in my future.

Well folks, I am just getting warmed up here, but this is a list of only ten, which brings me to number ten. This is a recently acquired "sucking" and will probably warrant it's own blog post:

10- Zumba.

I thought that was what long boots were for. That's why I bought mine. As for addresses, that's a Lehi thing. That's how we were all raised. I still need to see landmarks to know where I am. And ZUMBA is so much fun. Don't give up on it. As long as you're moving you're exercising. And I remember you dancing your butt off at Ivy Tower with us. You just need to get those moves back. Get your groove on.

Welcome back. I was beginning to wonder if you'd died-- especially when you FAILED to show at the wedding shower tonight. Thanks for the Chinese bike thing-- I'm sure THAT'S in my future...

By the way-- have you seen the awesome boots at Kohl's this year?

Scout patches? Fabric glue, baby!

Love me some Zumba...I play for hours if I'm not careful. Now my mom is actually the master. I think she's up to level 12 which is just way too much for me. My husband just doesn't understand.

I have been knee deep in boxes and I am so behind in all my favorite blogs. I sent you an im on FB but you didn't respond. I knew you didn't want to get caught up with the chatty cathy that I am:) I haven't tried zumba but I know that I wouldn't be good at it. No willpower either and I am seeing that in the cold weather, you don't have to shave as much. I am NOT in shorts and flip flops anymore. Hubby couldn't believe how bad my legs were. I have another excuse....I am unpacking and not thinking about shaving and looking all pretty:)
