last week was so sucky and sad because my friend had such a terrible loss, you saw my previous blog. anyway to add to all the strain of losing a child they also have incurred thousands of dollars of debt with the hospital, who worked hard to keep Anthon healthy for as long as they could.

So a fund was set up called Anthon's memorial fund at Wells Fargo Bank, it's simply to help the family pay off the hospital bills. The fund is under Mckay J Anderson - Anthon Anderson Benefit Memorial Fund. You can go to any Wells Fargo Bank and donate under that account. If the bank has trouble finding the account, they may call Jared Garns (personal banker) at 801-798-3522 for assistance.

i know even just a little bit would help them out.

sad day

my dear friends allison and mckay sadly lost their sweet baby Anthon Shaw Anderson on friday.
today i was very privileged to be a part of saying goodbye to baby Anthon.
i just have to say that no one should ever have to bury a baby. and these two people are really good people. allison is a social worker and mckay is a spanish teacher and they have been very good friends to me.
i met allison when we worked together at DCFS and it was a particularly trying part in my life. i was sort of going through a lot of transitions. these two people have been there for me when i was lovesick, heartbroken, lost, broke and ready to give up. two better friends a gal couldn't have.
i love them and i am very sorry for this unfair and tragic loss. i love you andersons, every single one of you.

producitve starts with pay day

i think i was just so excited to not be at work for two days, that i just got supercharged to do some things i needed to get done.

so... 1) bought a couch- pics to come hopefully. 2) got my hair did and i was pretty unhappy with the end result, but mostly because i'm a tiny bit insane but also because it's boring. 3) finally cleaned my office 4) made this kick ass frittata for sunday brunch


a word about this delicious frittata- asparagus, zucchini, shallots, yellow bell peppers, oh my. it was a good time and it was great to see some friends from grad school. they brought so many tasty treats too! brie, bagels, bacon, coffee cake, mimosas- it really was fabulous.

now for the xanax cause monday anxiety is already kicking in. boo.
