I pity the fool...a monthly warning

I pity the fool...who buys a house and doesn't get a plumbing inspection from a PLUMBER!

For those of you who have no idea, I work for a plumbing shop. Yesterday (Monday) I scheduled a couple of my guys to head over to a person's new house. Lets just say they couldn't figure out why their toilets couldn't flush. So I sent a couple of my guys over who thought the people just had a bunch of roots in their pipes from the big trees. NOT SO MUCH! The sewer line was back up from the sewer main all the way to their new house with...human waste!!!! YUCK! My poor plumbers spent 5 hours unclogging the house's sewer lines from the toilets out the house's outside clean out. End result: the previous owners' feces on the lawn and pretty trees.

LESSON: GET A PLUMBING INSPECTION BY A CERTIFIED PLUMBER BEFORE YOU BUY A HOUSE!

Just a quick update!

Well its been pretty crazy around here lately. I have been spending a lot of time working on my PR and Advertising gig for the Mixed Martial Arts event coming up on May 2nd. Last week, the tickets came in to work and they look amazing!! This coming week the fliers I designed will be coming to the shop and I look forward to finally seeing them on real paper! As soon as they come in I will take a picture and put it up here.

The weather here in laramie has been absolutely beautiful!! Yesterday I went up to Vedauwoo for a while and today I spent 2-3 hours up at Blair tracking around with Sage. I even think my cheeks are even a bit red! I am glad I got the chance to enjoy the weather, especially since it is suppose to get really bad within the next couple of days (like 1-2 feet)!

Well not much else is going on here... :-)

My New Apartment!



My new apartment in Laramie is really exciting! I live in a three bedroom apartment with two girls. One of the girls, Beth, stays roughly one night a week and officially lives in Fort Collins, CO. My other roommate, Emily, is a grad student at the University of Wyoming. We get along really well! Emily also has a dog, Otis, and a cat, Tonka. Both animals are really sweet. Sage even likes them a lot!

Here is picture of my room and my walk in closet! That’s right I said it WALK IN CLOSET!! Its pretty amazing!

Recently, I have been working on a Public Relations project for a MMA event coming up in May. My boss at Eagle Plumbing and Heating recently began a new production company here in Laramie and hired me to do PR and Advertising for their first event! Pretty exciting, if I might say so myself!

Well nothing else is really new! ☺

My New Beginning

About a month or so ago, I recently began a new journey. A journey that so far has been challenging and rewarding. I have officially begun my adult life in Laramie, Wyoming, the town where I spent 5 years in college. To me Laramie is an exciting place. I enjoy the mountains, the people, the atmosphere, the weather, and the life I live here.

Though I am recently single, I have been enjoying my free time with girls night, nights out on the town meeting new people, movie nights, and working an 8-5 job. My position as an administrative assistant has been very interesting and so far I enjoy it. The position reminds me of working at the Physical Plant. The guys who work there are full of jokes, fun, and unique personalities. Plus, I constantly feel appreciated by the people I work with.

I am looking forward to this weekend. This Wednesday is Cindy and Kendall’s Four Year Anniversary and they are celebrating by taking a weekend away together. It is a really exciting time for them, FOUR YEARS IS SO LONG!! CONGRATS YOU TWO!! Any who…I will be watching the twins the weekend. This is exciting to me because with working all the time I don’t get to hang with the kiddos as much as I use to!
