From our small drive, stopped at a beautiful viewing area of the Colombia River and then up to Larch Mountain.

I should be adding things to the store, which is what I was hoping to do today. But I had a ton of support things coming through and a few other things that I’ve neglected and really, really needed to get to. So fingers crossed, that I get to adding more product. There is a lot that I need to do on that. I’m not looking forward to it, because I’m tired of sitting in the office….but it has the best set up. Maybe I’ll set up on the patio tomorrow.
We finally watched Knocked Up that we’ve had on dvr for awhile. Â It was much funnier and better then we thought it would be.
I did do good on the tread mill today. But I need to do more on weights tomorrow.
I’m just totally unmotivated right now, I worked hard on focusing today. Other then payroll, I really haven’t focused on things like I really need todo. I just haven’t had it the last few weeks. ……actually more like a month. Between moving and the vacation, I haven’t been able to focus like I’ve needed to. That has got to change, especially when it comes to the store.
It hasn’t help that it an election year and I’m addicted to surfing for more news. And with settling in and all the maintenance and pest issues, it really has put a wench into me actually getting things done like I need to do.
Carol Thompson, a primary school teacher in Sarah Palin’s hometown of Wasilla, Alaska, has been galled by the mainstream media’s infatuation with the governor’s rugged yet glamorous Danielle Boone persona. “What amazes me is the fascination with her back story, when Alaska is filled with women who have much more interesting stories than she does,” she said. “She’s one of hundreds of thousands of very fascinating Alaskan women who hunt and fish and ski and build their own houses. I was living in a tent when I had my child!”Â
Thompson pointed to the woman next to her, who lives in Palmer, a town about thirteen miles from Wasilla. “Bridgette was hiking on a glacier two days before she had her child, and picking blueberries a week after she had her baby. And that does not qualify us for being Vice President.”
**It is great to see that some of the media reports that not everyone in Alaska loves her and some of it is very reveling.

Wow, my brain is a little fried. Finally got all of my work caught up. Been working hard since yesterday afternoon on it…..stayed up late to get all the payroll processed.
This weekend started off a little rough, in that our jeep got hit while parked Thursday night, but didn’t know until Friday morning. Found out while loading it up with the cats so the pest control guy could treat our carpets for the fleas we ended up with from the owner’s cats…icks. Luckly, the folks that hit us left a note. Which total took care of the anger we had at it, but now we have to deal with the insurance crap so we can get it fixed…..which isn’t going to be soon enough. =(
We did some site seeing and went up to Larch Mountain. Which is where Multnomah Falls are.  We got a site we didn’t plan on and it was stunning. I’m hoping to get all our pictures edited tomorrow and maybe get some posted…if my work isn’t overwhelming. I still have to edit Friday’s outing, when D & family visited and our Curacao pics. I really want to get them up for our families this weekend.
Here is a just one of the pictures, Mt Adams :
Now how could we ever move from this? We finally live in a state that we are happy in and it is stunning.
The good news is that we didn’t have to be out of the house as long as we thought and our replacement room divider was delivered….that was sweet. We didn’t expect that until Monday. Now we can have privacy in our bedroom from our patio doors.
Saturday was our college football day and Purdue could’ve won if they made the field goal and a few other things. Like hubby saids, Oregon did everything to lose it and Purdue did everything not to win……ggggrrrr I think we may have startled the neighbors with us yelling at the tv.
Sunday was NFL, of course, with comcast and being on the West Coast we don’t get crap in games. All the good games we wanted to see, we couldn’t…..ggrrrr That so pisses us off. We are planning on going to Direct TV with verizon….at least we can get the NFL ticket, because Comcast royally sucks when it comes to sports…..even on pay-per-view. At least the Colts won, even though the Saints lost. =(
Today it was the gym and then we had to head over to insurance claims….yuck. Still waiting on the other insurance company to verify the liabilty even their clients filed the claim…..ID theft protections. Then after dealing with all the crap, then it was on to trying to finish my work.
Of course, reading the news on the political campaigns just drives me nuts.
Here are some articles about the Sarah Palin and how she “governed” To use that term loosely…..the more that is found out about her, the more worst she sounds. Even worst then Cheney…..more petty and vindictive.
Palin’s Town Billed Rape Victims to Get Evidence
**That is disgusting.
 Working Mothers Against ‘Supermom’ Palin
**Unlike most working moms, she has a support system that they would kill for.
Palin cut own duties as mayor of Wasilla
In office, Palin hired friends and hit critics
**She sounds even worst then Bush.
