I guess it's been awhile since I've posted anything. If you keep up with facebook, I guess that's where I spend most of my time. If you're not a facebooker, well, then, I guess you get to be patient while I figure out I haven't been on the site in awhile.
So... updates... well, Eldora finished Easter weekend. I ended up NOT having to work on Easter! It was great -- ended up spending it with my family and that was much better! :) I don't miss the early mornings, that's for sure!!
I'm still working for the company in Broomfield - HPMI and I'm essentially our "Wellness Coordinator" which is fancy language for an "Event Coordinator" or something along those lines. Once my boss nails down a date for an event with a client, then it's up to me to get everything else prepped and ready for the actual event. I have to make sure we have people down to work the event as well as any materials, etc, needed. I get to go to most of the events we do, so that's pretty fun. I'm really enjoying it!
BIG NEWS: I finally just turned in my CO Teaching paperwork yesterday afternoon!! I know, it's been YEARS since I first started the process, but decided that if I want to sub in the fall, then I need to get moving. SO! Hopefully I'll find out soon what's going on. soon = month or more.
Tomorrow, we head up to A-Basin for their yearly Festival of the BrewPubs, which will be really fun! We enjoyed ourselves last year and this year we're taking some friends up with us. I'm totally stoked!!
Well, I'm off to work... I have some web clients that need attention! :) |

Today is the day for the white stuff!! It's been snowing since last night and now they are saying Boulder has 12 inches of snow! That's so crazy!
I made it into work today - via bus - and it was no big deal. Getting home is going to be another story. The main highway from here to Denver is closed and so, therefore, no busses really running. Hence the difficulty getting home.
Thankfully, I have a wonderful husband who is on his way to come and get me. He was smart and drove himself to Boulder and is gracious enough to "swing by" Broomfield on a newly-re-opened highway. Lovely boy!
I hve 10 more working days up at Eldora! Woo-hoo! The first weekend in April, I'm participating in Level 1 Certification for Ski Instructing. Talk about "oh so cool," right? It will teach me a bunch of stuff, I'll get paid a wee bit more, and it will help me get a job at a different resort if I want. You get higher priority for work, so might as well make it worth my $300. Yeah, I know. It's a lot. But if I come back to work at Eldora next season, then I get it back! :) Yes!
Going back to the snow we're having -- Eldora has needed snow for many moons, so this will definitely help with the ski instructing. Lately, the snow has been relatively icy in the morning and then crystalized mashed potatoes in the afternoon. Yuck. It's kinda fun to do a hockey stop, but it's super heavy and doesn't really spray all that well. But tomorrow? I'm guessing it will be a MUCH better day.
But then, I have to make it up the mountain, so we'll see how that adventure turns out! :)
Until next time!

Yes, I'm finally back online! We upgraded to a new server. I'd give the details, but I'm guessing no one will really care. Either way, we have a killer fast server now and yes, the online part is working now! Woo-hoo!
As mentioned in my last post that was forever ago, I have a couple of jobs I'm juggling. Therefore, no time to post, but I will be getting my time back soon! Eldora is closing on April 12, so I'll get my weekends back!!! I'll miss working with the little munchkins, but I'll be glad to have my life back again. :)
Let me know what's going with you!! |

I don't even know where to start! A lot has happened since I last posted -- I have a feeling too many aren't reading this, but if you are, here's a quick scoop. I will try to elaborate later...
I have 2 new jobs and love them both. The first job is working at the nearest mountain resort. Yes, I'm a ski instructor for Eldora. It's been great and I'm loving being up there. Not only do I get to teach kids (mostly) how to ski, I can also "free" ski if I don't get work! This past Monday found me all over the mountain -- fabulous snow and sun!!!
The second job was just upgraded! I started out as a glorified admin with a few additional responsibilities. "Client Data Specialist" was the official title. We organize health screenings and other healthy events like that and I'd be the one in charge of taking all of that data and spitting out pretty graphs and reports for the client. I also had an "office manager" hat as well as an "IT" hat.
The new position is now "Event Coordinator" as the girl in this position recently left and moved to another job in Denver. She pretty much organized all of the events we offer. I figured it would be fun, so now I'm the one in charge! :) While we're searching for someone to replace my old job (which will be changing a bit), I'm doing both my older position and now this new one. Holy cow, are there a ton of things to do!! It will be good to stay busy, but I will be out of sorts until April. We have a million events that are going on and I am the point person for all of them. PLUS I still have to run the reports and keep all of that organized. It will be insane for awhile - until I can get everything in order.
Whew!
Just get me through April and then the ski season will be over and I can "relax" and only have 1 job to think about. |

Thanks to all of your notes regarding the migrane headaches. I haven't had one since then, but I'm also trying really hard to limit my stress and find ways to relax so they can't happen again.
I have a few ideas in the works and will share when I can!!!
Hope all is going well!!! |
