Well, Dans been gone again. He gets to come home long enough to sleep, but then is gone at the crack o'dawn. The one night he did come home it was to watch the kids so I could go to my enrichment planning meeting, whoa- who! He works hard and wants to to a good job. This week he is in Colorado Springs, Pueblo, Lamar .... all those places down there. He has another dinner on Fri at Garden of the Gods(click). I am meeting him down there for that.
I feel like I'm being teased when he has weeks like this... "hi, I'm home , I'm tired, going to bed. Gotta leave at 5:30am, won't see you until 11:30pm. I have to leave again early tomorrow. LOVE YA!"

This morning Jake got my cell phone and was "talking" to Daddy. "come home. I wuv you. home!" Zach on Mon. night (Dan was staying the night in Pueblo) came into my room and just needed "to hold your hand until I fall asleep. I'm scared." He only does this when Dan is gone.

All in all, though. I love him! He, himself, never wanted to work this hard. He does like his job and the people he works with and gets to meet.

Tonight I get to do parent teacher conferences on my own. It will be great because my kids are great! It will be quick and easy because I see the kids teachers weekly when I volunteer, so there really isn't anything that goes on that I don't know about.

Being in Relief Society is going to be a REAL learning experience. We (me and my enrichment leader) have decided to NOT do a "super saturday". Oh ya!!! I can't wait to get the back lash on this one. Already 2 of the committee is freaking out.... nicely,but still freaking out. The commitee leader has been in for over 2 years and she tallied up the # of crafts she's done and it totals over 30. I totally back her up!

What are your ideas and some of the HFPE night you like/ remember? (my way of asking for help :) )

The Colorado Rockies are so amazing!! I took this on my way to Grand Junction to meet up with Dan. As many times as I have driven this route the mountains never fail to impress me. It was probably a dangerous stunt to take this while driving winding roads, but .... oh, well. I probably shouldn't have taken the next one either.....





I went to Grand Junction (last Fri. 2/29 ) for a district banquet that Dan needed to be at. I jumped at the opportunity to go spend a night with him and away from the kids. I rented a car, a Nissan Xterra, so that we could drive back together. I have never really toured Grand Junction than to stop right off I-70 for a lunch break to or from Utah. It is really a nice town
