On the corner of two roads by where I live in Nampa , Idaho , there is a new Chevron convenience store. Now I’m only not disclosing the location to protect the job status of a certain smarty pants who works there. (I’m kidding of course, he’s fun) . I went in last week with my daughter to buy slushies. She had this big crazy bag that she carried in the store. We like to refer to it collectively...

I'm tired of back biting, half truths and misleading he said she said commercials. I'm not saying whom I'm voting for, but seriously, this country is in the crapper!  We are going to half to accept...reasons for people supporting one or the other candidate .  Do your research before you make a decision :)  That's my two cents. I certainly think we can't get any worse off than we are right now.  

...running mate. Whereas I have seen many signs for Obama-Biden including huge ones. In some areas there are big road side signs for Republican County Sheriff and State Legislators, but no Presidental candidate sign. Unusual. There is no way I think this means Obama will take Idaho or Eastern Washington, I'm not THAT optimistic. But I do think this indicates a local lack of passion for the ticket.

...ETF all day on Thursday in SLC. We ended up missing The A.K.A's because we were helping Craig pick out a tattoo, but we stopped by the venue to say hello anyway. Craig  asked Anja and I to drive to Idaho with them on Friday so we did. We were put on the guestlist as being with the band. The Venue in Idaho was tiny and security was full of fail. We left the venue to help  A Skylit Drive load their...

I have lived in many places, and I have come to believe that Idaho has the most amazing sunrises and sunsets of all the places I have lived. I love driving to work or SOE in the mornings, because I get to see the beautiful sunrise. I drive directly north. On my right, I get to see the sun coming up over the mountains, surrounded by clouds, all the beautiful colors. But on my left, I also get to see...

...Obama, hinting that Idahoans should have a major problem with that. The last thing a person gets to hear before the commercial ends it the tag line that this non-republican is "too Liberal for Idaho." WTF? The news is saying that what the pres guys are doing with all their "mud-slinging" is bad...I would really like to know what they think of this sort of thing. Sometimes I feel myself laughing...

...outside loading the back of our SUV when suddenly, I spot him walking into the Walmart with his wife.... OMG it's Larry Gebert !  I look at him, he looks at me.  He's walking right by me.  A true Idaho celebrity straight off the KTVB weather news  (for those of you who don't know.)  So I'm thinking to myself, should I say hi?  Doesn't he get that all the time?  I know it will sound so cool...

...me off in minot at 907am. it was a little late, both ways. i slept like shit on that train ride. tuesday i worked until 103pm. i napped, got up, went to see ellen to say good bye...she planned a trip to idaho for a week. i "joked" about going before.  you know how parents are with school...if i skipped class and happened to win a car that day because of skipping they'd say, "why did you skip class?!"...

I've been throwing around the idea of blogging my thoughts for a long time.  I guess I'll start by telling you all about my "street cred"   I'm a 37-ish kinda girl.  I was 25 for about ten...somehow it always works out.  Can't wait to share what I know, so that other moms know that they are normal and real too. And like Fergy says, I hope I make my Mommy-licious blog t-t- tasty! tasty!    

... The BEST WAY to end a Yellowstone visit all be it a short one (well several hours but felt short lol I guess things always do when you are doing things like this). After a few hour drive through Idaho back to Jackson we crashed in our room and slept hard for 7 hours. (got there at 11pm-ish and got to bed around 12:30am-1am and woke up at 8:15am) After showering and getting ready we cleaned up...
