Turks!

Hanging out with neighbors and Tim at Turks! We had a blast....

Stoked?

What does it mean when you are not stoked on someone? Do you want to hang out with them? Would you rather not have them around? I feel like I'm being too hard on him, but there is a slew of emotions lately that I don't know how to handle and I wind up telling him everything that I'm thinking and it turns into him not being stoked on me. He loves me, but not stoked....

I'm sad, confused, and lost lately. I want to tell him all these things I think and feel, but I worry that I just may make it worse. I hate working so many days in a row. I hate working the weekends. I hate staying out late when I have to be to work the next day. I want to curl up in a ball lately and just be! Just be alone, just be sad, just cry if I need to...

I want to be the happy person that everyone thinks that I am... I want the complications to go away, I want to be content again. I want the thoughts in my head to slow down, calm down.

I'm happy that I'm going on vacation in two weeks. I think being with my family will help put things into perspective. I think it will give me insight into what I want to happen from here on out.

Today's pledge: Allow there to be silence. It's okay to sit in a room with someone and just be silent.

Favorite Quilt

There have been many.... This is my favorite. I think it's my
favorite because of the bright colors and because my brother picked
the pattern for me!

I love this picture!

Gotta love a greyhound on a hot day!

Sake and Sushi

This is my first mobile blog entry!!!

Quilts are Finished

I finished my first two baby quilts that I'm going to give away. Well, almost done. I have to hand stitch the binding and then I can give them away. I'm excited and very nervous about giving them away. I hope they are appreciated.

That's all... I'm on my way to Yuma in a little bit. I'm excited about seeing my family!

FYI: I bought new pants last night!

Hole in Pants

So, I'm at work today and it's hot and sticky. Not the best day, but I'm the outside technician and my supervisor want to watch me add chemicals to a tank, no problem, until....

Dun, dun, dun..... I have to disconnect a hose from a bin. I squat down, my pants are stuck to my legs because of the humidity, I have a labcoat, rubber apron, hard hat, safety glasses, faceshield, and big neoprene gloves on which makes it a million degrees hotter and a feel my pants rip! OH SHIT!

Good thing I had the labscoat on for a minute because it gave me time to assess the situation. No one saw it, which is a good thing and it was also fairly small.

When I got back to the lab I found some duct tape, because duct tape fixes everything. I went to the restroom and duct taped my pants, from the inside of course!

Next problem, duct tape does not feel good when you are wearing a thong! The tape is sticky on the ends and it keeps sticking to my ass. I hope people can't tell that I'm walking a little funny today!

This is Life with Kate!
