Just read my last posts. I have a really boring life when I blog about what I spent at the grocery store. I just pulled some emails--Tony has skipped seminary three times this week. I try this and I try that, but he's....oh well.
We have winter. It snowed a couple days ago, a real wet snow. It was a challenge to get the driveway shoveled. Guess you can tell who did the work. I still have Mr. and Mrs. Bones sitting outside on my porch. Maybe tomorrow they can get put away for the season.
RS keeps my hopping--something every day. I like my job because...and I'm not so crazy about my job because.... I really think there should be a law against making a working mom also a RS president. I'm feeling a little guilty because on Tuesday I was in the middle of kitchen baking and saw on the caller ID that Amy (she's an old, bed-ridden lady who gets neglected by her daughter and I want to personally strangle her daughter and family right now, but that's another story) was calling, which meant that she needed me to come get her out of bed, into her wheelchair and to the bathroom. I ignored the call, the whole time thinking I'm probably going to go to hell for this, hoping that she would call someone else. I just didn't want to do compassionate service right then. The next morning she had a mini stroke. Sue, one of the ladies in the ward, just called to say that she has left Amy who should be okay until her daughter gets home, but I'll call Amy w/i the hour and see if she needs some assistance--just to check on her.
Tony should be calling for a ride here in about 45 minures. My work is out of TAT. Groceries sit on the counter waiting to be put away and there's laundry calling for some attention. Just another Friday.
One of my friends called to ask if I am going to adult seminary tonight. I told I was, so it's a good thing she called, otherwise I might have talked myself into staying home.
Okay, enough for now.
It was THEE biggest game of the year and the cable was out for the first third of the game. Unbelievable. Anyway, three very RED boys were gloating by the victory which now has the 12-0 Utes headed to the Sugar Bowl versus Alabama, or at least that's the prediction.
Jared heads off to school this gorgeous fall morning and as you can see he's wear Ute red. His brothers have turned him to the dark side. The "Holy War" is tomorrow and it's fun to see the kids head off to school in either blue or red. Rafael put up blue Christmas lights last night, which really got Victor's attention. The Utes are favored to win, as they are ranked nationally #8 at 11-0 and BYU is ranked #16 at 10-1. Hmmmm?
Hope he can keep up the motivation as the years pass and classes get harder with no re-takes. He's a great kid. Love that smile. He's headed out with his fellow Scouters here in a few minutes to deliver flyers around the neighborhood that he put together. He's working on a merit badge so needs service hours. The flyers are to inform the neighborhood that the youth (combined mutual) will be going around Wednesday and collecting for a food drive for the Food Bank. Jared and Victor are outside right now kicking the ball around with Tyler, the nextdoor kid, enjoying the sunshine and warmth. It's 59 degrees (unseasonably warm) and so they're outside in short-sleeved shirts. It's way lovely. 
Just finished this book, actually a few days ago, and am into another one. I would recommend this book. It's a modern take on the Ruth/Naomi story from the bible. This is not written by a LDS author, but definitely a faith-based person, so no need to worry about language, etc. Ruth and Naomi go on quite a road trip and I loved the ending in a courtroom involving Ruth and Bo (Boaz)--would love to see it played out on the big screen. 
We had a winter storm this past week and the flowers got buried. So sad. 
, both made region first team. He loves to golf and hates that it's now winter and time to put his beloved clubs away for a few months. Victor is 16 and a sophomore, so he has a couple years to improve. He's dying to get a job 'cause he hates being broke (join the crowd). I told him that he has to wait until February when he can apply at the local course, that way he can have a few bucks in his pocket and course privileges. Anyway, he had a great season (although I think there are a few tournaments come spring?). He played at the #2 position on the team of 18, going to 10 tournaments and the state championship (only 6 from the team went to state) which was really hard for school, since these events were held during school days. This was a building year with a new coach, Eric Bland. Per yesterday's newspaper article:
