Fleetwood Mac and Palladia


I've already mentioned my cable upgrade. Well, one of the very cool things about the upgrade is I now have this channel called Palladia. It's basically a music channel that plays concerts, and it's pretty cool so far (and, it's all in High Def). As if I needed another reason to spend more time in front of the tube.



Segue to today. I'm a few minutes from leaving work when I find out that tonight's Presidency meeting has been canceled (and to think I had actually remembered this one). Other than a few errands I could think of, what's a girl to do when her meeting is canceled? The answer: Go home, grab dinner, and channel surf. As I'm surfing, what do I discover, but Fleetwood Mac in concert on Palladia. Sweet! Nothing like a little Stevie Nicks after a long day. Of course, my clicker stopped there, and my DVR started there.


I sat quietly and watched for the first half of the show, but by the second, things were a little intense. Let's just say it's a good thing no one else was around so that no one could see me as I bounced up and down on the sofa, and danced around the living room, shaking my booty and my rock star hair (let's face it, I do have rock star hair now), all while playing my air guitar. I also had turned up the volume just a "wee" bit. By the time the show was over, I was whipped into a frenzy and probably driving the upstairs neighbor fairly crazy. After that, I came to my senses in time to watch a new episode of NCIS.

It's the second best Fleetwood Mac concert I've ever been to, and it's the neighbor's misfortune that I have it recorded. Man, I love that band.

LOL! I can totally see you rocking out in your living room to this. My only question is ... why wasn't I invited to come over and watch it with you?

Tidying Up

If you've been watching Netflix much lately, you've probably seen the new series "Tidying Up", with Marie Kondo. She's an expert in cleaning, tidying, and storing stuff, and her method is quite inspiring. I enjoyed the show so much that I ordered her book "The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up", and spent several days trying to get my house more in order. Not that I'm a hoarder - I have a basically tidy home. But the Kon-mari method teaches you to look at your belongings and ask yourself if each particular belonging brings you joy. If it doesn't, it's time for it to move on. I went through all my clothes first, followed by my books and DVD's, followed by the office, followed by the kitchen and laundry room. Whatever didn't bring me joy or a happy memory went into the pile. And when all was said and done, I ended up taking an entire car full of stuff to the local Deseret Industries, to hopefully be re-purposed for someone else to find

New 'Do

For probably the last 10 years or so, I've had pretty much the same hairstyle. For the most part, it's been long, all one length, and I would eventually put it up in a ponytail almost every day, because I couldn't stand having it in my face. It drove me crazy, but I didn't know what to do with it, and at the same time, I liked that I could basically get up and go every day without a lot of effort. For the past several months now, I've been threatening to do something different and drastic, and finally, yesterday, I did. At the recommendation of Angel, I made an appointment with her stylist. It took several weeks to get in, but finally, the day arrived. Angel went with me, for moral support, and to be the photographer. I went in with some basic ideas, but after some consultation and looking at photos with Francine, this is what I ended up with. First, the "before" shot: In process: And finally, the finished product: I can't remember the last time

Triple D Divas Do Northern Utah

Last Saturday, the Triple D Divas met for a day trip get-away to Northern Utah - specifically Logan and Brigham City (with a little touch of Idee-ho thrown in for good measure). We started our journey with lunch at the Bluebird Cafe. Everyone knows about the Bluebird - it's about the oldest place on main street, and is tradition for anyone whose ever done a Logan Temple Trip. We went in to see the Logan Tabernacle, and I snapped this cool picture of the oragn pipes. (Of course, now that we're all in our 40's and have shrinking bladders, the Tabernacle also made for a clean and convenient potty stop.) ...Also a view of the Logan Temple spires from outside the Tabernacle...    From there, it was off to Glossner's Cheese Factory for some squeaky cheese. After that, we went to the Pepperidge Farms Outlet, and the girls all found some cookies and stuff.  But nothing really excited me there.  However, the outlet is located in
