Painting the Family Room~~~~I really hate painting~~~But like the end results
This is what the walls looked like before I started painting the basement family room. Painting is one of my least favorite things to do, but I am so excited for the end results. I think the brown is so rich it almost looks like suede. My family room is very big, so this project will probably take some time because I paint a little then take long breaks.......

SADY *****Man's Best Friend
Sady came to our family back in 1995. Sausha found her at "Ricks College" when she was attending and since she couldn't find her owners, or a new home she came to live with me.
Even though, she was 15 or 16 years old she always looked like a puppy. She was somewhat of a neurotic dog. (We assumed she had been abused) She never learned how to play, and was insecure, always following me wherever I went. Sady was a very loving dog loved human food. Those big brown eyes were so easy to give into, she really was a cute dog. She was always begging for food and dad used to feed her half of his meals. She keep him company after mom passed away!
Today is a sad day since Sady is no longer with us. She had congestive heart failure and yesterday it become very difficult for her to breath. It continued today, and so I took her to to the vet, were it was determined things weren't going to get any better for her. Kristin and Wendy with her when she passed away! Thank you for being there!

GIRLS DAY SHOPPING
Our day started out at 7:00 am. The roads were horrible until the Downey exit. Just past Pocatello, the snow flakes were some of the biggest I have ever seen, about the size of tennis balls. They were beautiful. I ran into my cousin David Birch at the McCammon truck stop! It is interesting no matter where you go there is usually someone else you know. We also ran into an old neighbor at Tai Pan.
We reached our destination Tai Pan (awesome place) about 10:30 am and shopped 'til 2:30pm. Our feet didn't even hurt, the time went by so fast we thought we were there for only a couple of hours! It was so much fun! and we all got some neat stuff!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!......I had a very low key New Year's Eve....went to bed!
Here's 2008 in "quick" review
Marcio visited us from Brasil in Jan.
I was unemployed from Jan. thru May---I loved being able to stay home, I did work part time during that time however.
Worked for a Dr.'s Office from June thru July and then the end of July
Regional Hearing and Balance Center wanted me to go back to work there, which I did.
The summer went too fast and I didn't even make it to Yellowstone or camping this year.
My aunt Marie passed away in July at 100 years old
Sydney spent alot of time in Dr offices and Hospitals, but the last quarter of "08" she has been doing great! What a blessing!!!!
Alex turned eight in Aug. He didn't get baptized so that is a little disapointing, but will hope for the future. In Aug. I was also released from Young Women's as secretary, and put back in as the 1st Counselor.
Dad passed away in Sept. (see earlier blog) I really have missed him and my mom. Somedays, I feel like an orphan!
Oct-Dec went by so fast I am not even sure what happened those months.
And now it is 2009. Jan. is a birthday month for my family
