Mid-November update

Hi everyone! I know all you BB peeps are busy with the conference right now but wanted to touch base. Finally got the cast off! I have to do some exercises to get it ready for all the falls I will be taking snowboarding this winter but that's okay. My first lesson is in a couple of weeks.

Just been super busy with work and trying to catch up on fun on the weekends. Had to fly off to Chicago Friday for an onsite. Then, Chris and I attempted to see Cowboy Mouth Saturday night but they didn't start until 11pm - and we all know I'm more of a happy hour girl than a late-night concert goer. Oh well.

This weekend, we are going to see Warren Miller's Children of Winter movie. No worries if you have no idea who Mr. Miller is - I didn't either until I got out here. He is a big-time ski movie producer guy. Should be good stuff and a good motivator for getting out on the slopes.

I'll touch base with y'all after Thanksgiving. I am spending it here with the Chastains (that's "my friend Lindsay" to some of y'all) and looking forward to it - but will miss Mom's turkey and mashed potatoes! Until then...

Halloween

Hey guys! This will be short as my eyes are about to bug out of my head because I've been staring at my laptop for the past 12 hours working. However, knew some people could be anxious about the Halloween pictures. So - the guy I was out with was Dog, the Bounty Hunter... what else could I possibly be then... the roll of paper towels he hunted, ie - Bounty. Dawn helped me put together and it was pretty awesome if I do say so myself...
The couple with us are from Charleston too! Rock on with the South representing in the Rockies. They went as Billy Idol and White Wedding - awesome.
And then, here are "my friends Jeff and Lindsay" as the peeps in Charleston know them. They are a stunning rendition of June and Johnny Cash, don't you think?
All in all, a great Halloween. An even better Saturday as we all got together again to watch Clemson, USC (Linds went there), and play CatchPhrase.
Sunday was a beautiful day and spent at Mile High watching the Broncos lose. It was fun and I think I actually got some Vitamin D back in my life.
It hasn't snowed yet - but I hear it's going to snow in the mountains tonight and the ski resorts will start opening up this weekend. I've got my Epic Pass ready and ready to roll.
That's about it for now. Getting the cast off Thursday! Whoo-hoo - will finally be able to open up screw top jars.
Hope that ladies out there have a good girl's night tomorrow and drink a cocktail for me.
Until later...
