Everyone is Private

If you look at my blog there is a chance I look at yours, if you are private please send me an invitation. I totally want to blog stalk!

How do you feel?

I am opening this forum up to everyone...How do you feel about those companies, organizations, people, etc. boycotting Arizona? I guess I really haven't thought about it too much because it didn't affect me until just recently. I have been wanting to go to a really good concert for sometime now but just haven't had the time or felt the money was worth it until they announced the Lilith Fair. So many good artist's are scheduled to go on tour and they had previously announced they were coming to Arizona. Then (dun dun dun) they canceled. Their reasoning is that the venue was outdoors and it is too hot (couldn't they have moved it to somewhere indoors and don't tons of bands play outdoors here?) So then I heard that one of the artist's were blogging that they were not coming to support the boycotting of Arizona because of the new immigration law. Musicians have always supported political acts but when is it too far? Are we not supposed to be a UNITED (states) country? I feel sick to my stomach thinking people (states, etc.) are turning on eachother. If so many states are against the law why don't we come together to solve the issues?

*I would just like to say I don't necessarily agree with this law.

To be depressed or not to be depressed

I have this love hate thing going on with Utah. I love to go out there but when I return home it always takes me a few weeks to get motivated and not be depressed. I am making a conscious effort this time around to not sulk for a week. I have things planned each day and am ready for the summer to begin...bring it on! OK, I will admit I have been kind of sulky today but I am just giving myself this one day. Which goes along nicely with the craziness of the three year old cache. I am officially going to the library and finding myself a parenting book. I am so totally at the end of my rope. Wow, now that this post has really gotten side tracked and completely random I will go back to our short (haha, not really) visit to Utah. It was really beautiful. Lots of rain and cold, which I am sure the locals weren't happy about, but I loved it. It would have been nicer if I brought warmer clothes for my kids but who would have thought such freezing cold temperatures in June? I should have known better. It was nice to just go and relax, chill with family, and be in awe of how beautiful the mountains are. You forget when you live there that it is really absolutely gorgeous. I guess that could be something I am thankful for, living in a barren desert allows me to truly see the beauty of other places. Unfortunately, I didn't really take any pictures of us doing anything cool. Next time I will on top of that. I did however, try to take some of the kids. I am trying to just get a decent pic of the both of them, next we are headed to a professional.
