Utah: Week 3

Still going along in Utah. We have been able to get through three weeks and hopefully soon the weather lets up. It has been hot here, and from what I gather, this has been a heat wave. But I really want it to end soon. Elise says it will be through August we will have this. Either way, I am here now, so it is time to buck up and just get through it.

Popito (my Dad) and Debbie came for a visit this week. They have been traveling around to see the different things. Elise went with them down to Manti, UT. I also had to take them on the Route 92 Scenic Death Drive. My dad was kind of scared. I started to point out all the things on the side of the road and showed him the edge of the mountain/road. He did not like that too much. We ended up in Sundance and it was nice. The restaurant there was nothing special. It was good food, but expensive, which we were kind of expecting. We also were going to go on the chair lift. The entire ride, if you ride it up and back, is 45 minutes in length. Alot of people get out at the top and mountain bike or hike down. My Dad did not want to even go on the ride. So we did not, but that would have been fun.

Zo was really ill last week and finally got better. However, since she likes sharing things, Netter got it this weekend. So I was home with her helping her out. I realized this weekend I need to do more active things and get going more. I feel very burnt out at times, and very lifeless others. It is almost kind of scarey how much I just break down once I get home. And then I can not sleep, so I need to do something different. Maybe this week I will do something more. Even taking a walk every night, or start running.

Anyway, here are this week’s pictures.

  1. Sounds like you guys are having fun traveling around Utah and are really enjoying the new house. Just wait out the heat and then there will be some fun snow to play in. I’m about to start running again, now that I’m all back to normal after having Olive. You can start running “with” me. I’m excited to run again, but I know it’s going to be hard work. Oh well.

  2. Week 3, great job. At least you know your heat wave still isn’t as bad as here. But I’m sure it still sucks!! I feel you on the exhausted thing. As soon as I get home from work I’m just done. My ass hits the couch and that’s it. Good luck with your exercise. I know what I NEED to do, but the doing is the most difficult.
