fruitlati!

goodness..more photos....ok these photos here is an attempt to give you an idea of how the balloonists unpackage their balloons, laying them out, then fill them with air. (my favorite photo of these is the last one on this page) anyways, i have yet to work on a balloon crew nor have i have actually been in a balloon yet. that is something i truly desire to do one day, maybe next year. i do know a guy at our church who is a balloonist and will ask to join him on his crew next year IF i can remember.....

once the balloons are filled and they take off, the chase crews start chasing the balloon. the balloonists really have no clue where they'll land as i understand. it's all where the wind blows them. as i went to Jennie's office yesterday after the fiesta, there were a dozen or so balloons over her office, a few landing just next door. a lot of albuquerqueans don't go to the fiesta because we can see them hanging over the city in most places. and Lonna, Jennie's assistant, told me a place i could go view them without going near the field. it happens to be just down the street near Marsha's home. now i gotta go there one morn for the view....

so this morn, i was out of coffee creamer again. so i ran to the main store only to find the small containers again in lieu of the largest. my coffee creamer is CoffeeMate French Vanilla-original. constantly i go to this store and they're out. a few months ago, MY grocery store chain was bought out. i have not been happy with the new store who bought them out. i'm going back to Walmart Supercenter for my grocery shoppin. i've just been runnin to this one for the creamer. need to stop that too....

now what is fruitlati? it's actually a deli of sorts here in the morn, but i just borrowed the name for my title because i'm having fruit for breakfast-yay! the past few morns, i've been doin donettes and it got old quick. can't believe in my younger days at the p.o. i stopped at Dunkin Donuts EVERY morn for coffee and donuts before work-ugh, the thought of it now....lol happy i'm doin a better diet now. my banana and nectarine are delicious this morn despite my Boo doggie sittin here beggin for a bite!
