Finally Friday!

I look forward to Fridays. I've always loved Fridays and when its Friday, its means we are one day closer to Saturday which is even BETTER than Friday, because it means we are one day closer to Sunday! Did you get all that? Basically I just like the weekend. And I'm really looking forward to just laying around Saturday night and laying around some more on Sunday.

This week we have been running on frozen Pot Pies, chicken nuggets, and some old rice crispy treats I made last Sunday night (just finished the last of them this morning). We have been so busy working and doing training meetings, we haven't had much time to go to the store and it makes me shake my head in shame when I think about how unhealthy we have become. Yes, we do walk around all day long, which is great exercise. And yes, we do stay out in the heat, which makes us sweat like crazy. This means we aren't gaining weight or anything-quite the opposite actually. But this doesn't mean we are fueling our bodies properly and it goes against everything I've learned my entire LIFE! But somehow, despite the subconscious sabotaging-they keep on plugging along... for now.

Evergreen Machine

We have been out here for three months now. It has gone by so fast-just August and September left. We have been out knocking in some of the crappiest weather, all to bring the residents of New Castle County these beautiful babies. Seriously. Have you ever seen better looking trash cans? I think NOT!

The pictures below are from one of the silly things we did during one of our training meetings. Its called "Bear, Hunter, Hooker". Similar to "Rock, Paper, Scissors" but a little more interesting. Its almost impossible to play without laughing. Bear kills the hooker, hooker kills the hunter, and hunter kills the bear. The winner got $$$. Kyle won.

We went a few weeks without hitting our dinner goal, but luckily the last 2 weeks we made it! Its always more fun getting to go out on someone else's tab! Hopefully these next two months just fly by as quickly as the first couple. I'm sure they will. And before we know it, we'll be back in the cold of Idaho.

Heat Wave

So its been really hot lately. The thing that drives me nuts is how much the news is covering this heat wave. Its SUMMER time. It gets HOT. We don't need every news channel on every station at every hour of the day to remind us that we don't want to open our doors or windows or even THINK about leaving the comfort of our air conditioned homes.

Sincerely,

Mikki Young
