my cloud picture, and random thoughts

I lost my cloud picture for a while.  Don't know where it went, but it disappeared, and it took me a few days for it to upload again.  I'm ignorant of the magical inner workings of Blogger regarding uploading photos.  I always wonder when the triangle with the little flashing bars around it is really doing anything or not, and when a picture takes minutes and minutes to upload and then never does, I think I am just being teased.  

Tomorrow is Sunday and Jennifer, Erik, Ethen, Mia, and Kendall are going back to Denver.  Naturally, it is snowing in the mountains.  I hope the roads aren't too bad, or I hope the wait until the snow clears and they are better.  

On a happy note, the Sooners won tonight vs Okie State.  Now tomorrow will tell if they get to play in the Big 12 title game against Mo.  There's a three way tie and the BCS ranking will decide.  I know nobody cares but me, but I care enough to post it in my blog.  Texas is practically begging to get picked over OU.  Maybe they will, maybe they won't.  Tomorrow I will know.  Either way, life goes on.  

I want to finish the Book of Mormon by the end of the year.  I'd better get my posterior in gear, because I am still in Mosiah.

It's Lorelai!!


Here are a couple of shots of Lorelai that I used my new portrait software on.  I think they are great.  Of course I'm the photographer so my opinion doesn't count for much.  I took them when her other Grandma Cathy was visiting from Iowa and we all went to Bananas Fun Park.  Tell me what ya think!

They're teasing me again

The department got this cool 2008 Jeep Liberty especially for the Traffic Unit PST (me) to drive around during the course of the day.   So far, they are just teasing me with it.  I have driven it for about a day in the past two weeks.  They are making me drive the old 98 Ford F150 traffic truck, and they keep mumbling about needing to add some equipment and stuff to the Jeep but so far it just sits in the lot and my sergeant drives it to work and home every day.  The old truck is a dog.  The Sarge says I can't have the jeep until it is ready.  I know it won't get the radio and mobile computer until Nov 17th.  I will have to drive a dog until then, and probably longer depending on how long it takes them to add the stuff.  Sigh.  

Well, my guy (not really my guy but you gotta go with who's in the race) lost the election.  Now I know how the democrats felt for the last 7 elections or so.  Sorta bummed.
