Reasons why...

Today's Topic: Reasons Why I Am Loving My New Job

1. I enjoy the projects, am doing a good job on them (I think) and I can TALK about my work now!

2. These are small projects, so I get them done and feel a great sense of accomplishment.

3. I work in a brand new mirrored glass building and it is awesome. (Except I can't get in sometimes since I don't have a key yet.)

4. The breakfast burrito man comes Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I have never had one, I just think it's cool.

5. We had an ice cream social hosted by the building on my THIRD DAY at work.

6. People are starting to get to know me and talk or at least smile a little more and I am getting more comfortable with them as well.

7. There is a lady that offers "chair massages" (for a price) at least once a month to the employees of the tenants in the building.

8. The drive takes a little longer, but I get to see the mountains almost every morning and evening during this time so I don't mind. (Some days, there is too much haze or pollution to see mountains.)

9. My boss called me Linda today and things started to feel like "work" again. (Long story)


Reasons I Don't Like My New Job

1. I still really miss those WAMers I used to work with.


On another note:

I am really sorry we haven't gotten any of our wedding pictures printed yet. We have a mere 750 pictures on a CD to sort through and print and I just haven't had the time to get to them yet. I guess that's one of the bad things about having a photographer who gives us the right to every photo he took.

I will make it my mission to get the good ones printed by the time any family comes to visit. Bill and Barbara, this may be a stretch for you guys, but we will certainly do our best! :) In the mean time, here is one of my favorites.

Colorado Craft Beer Week

Matt and I decided to join some of our favorite local breweries yesterday at a craft beer festival to help kick off Colorado Craft Beer Week. It's no secret that craft beer is a huge part of the Colorado economy. Everybody just does it so well out here. It was nice to go to a smaller festival than the Great American Beer Festival where there are too many breweries to even get to every booth. Yesterday's festival felt more like a back yard barbecue. I even got to meet the hosts of the Craft Beer Radio show on AM760. There is a picture of me with Turk and the "Gubna" below. In addition to some good beer sampling, our tickets also included a meal of either beer can chicken roasted for hours on the grill (my choice) or a spicy brat (Matt's choice). The chicken was amazing. I even let Matt try some. :) I also had some fun and took some pictures at the light rail. (We were responsible and walked/rode the train to and from the event.) What a fun day! Even better was c...

Millards meet Mallards

We've had some neighborhood visitors recently. This Mallard duck couple has made our yard its home for about a week now. They showed up right before our camping trip and have been around ever since! We can't find a nest but they seem to like prefer our yard, none the less. Maybe it has something to do with the name? My hope is that they really do have a nest nearby and one day I will wake up to little ducklings wandering around our yard!

June Recap in Photos

June was a busy month around here! I managed to snap a few photos here and there. That's better than I have been doing this month. *I apologize in advance for the spacing of the photos as captions here. Does anyone have any tips for better photo settings in Blogger?? At the very end of May, we drove to Manhattan for my brother's high school graduation. I can't believe he is a college student now!! He will be attending K-State this fall. I guess you could consider us a house divided, except for the fact that I am the only one in my immediate family who ventured out down the road to KU! :) The first weekend of June, Bill and Barbara came out for a visit on their way down to Santa Fe. We took them for a hike near Clear Creek. There has been so much snowfall and rain this year and Clear Creek was gushing water. I had never seen it moving so fast. My friend Liz has been bring out my inner artist. She discovered a place downtown called Sipping and Painting, where they literally w...
