So for my birthday I had to go back to work after two weeks off. Rough, I know. Afterward we went to a nice dinner at Mai Thai. I love that place. They have the best Thai food. So that was the extent of excitement on my birthday. However, the day before we went for a drive to see Malad Gorge State Park. It's suppose to be beautiful and have a nice falls. I'm sure it would have been if I could see anything through the stinging wind. It was 14 degrees with a wind chill of at least -10. Any exposed skin felt like it was burning off. My eyes kept watering and I couldn't see a thing. I didn't bring gloves and it hurt to take my hands out of my coat to take a picture so I don't have many. And the falls weren't exactly rushing at this time of year. They actually weren't rushing at all. Lucy didn't seem to mind though. She was the only one that had a good time and wondered why we were getting back in the car so soon. Nice drive though, saw hundreds of antelope on the side of the freeway.
Our weekend project now is ripping up the carpet in our bedroom. There are hardwood floors underneath. Whoever painted last must have known they were carpeting so didn't care about the floors. They painted the trim on the wall so there is white paint on the floor all the way around the room. I think they used a sprayer to paint the wall inside the closet without a drop cloth because the whole inside of the closet is covered in misted white paint. Hazen spent most of yesterday sanding the floor. We have moved downstairs for a few days as our bedroom furniture is littered across the whole upstairs. We slept in the "firm/hard" bed last night. It actually wasn't that bad. Back to work on the floors today. Will post pics when we are finished.
