The Provo Tab

Oh the lovely, historic, Provo Tabernacle

This lovely old building now looks like this:

And I can't even tell you how sad that makes me.

This building is where I was privileged to perform in a wonderful Thanksgiving program & where later I was asked out on a date by my crush at the time. It was a storybook evening & I truly felt like a princess (later things didn't pan out but that didn't matter at the time, nor does it now.)

Not to mention all the times passing this building would make me think of all the wonderful people who have been able to see this and hold it as a part of what Provo was & is today.

Yes I know I don't have nearly the history & amount of memories with this particular structure that some of my friends have, but I have my own memories. Memories that every time I'd pass this building would come back & make me smile.

Now that's literally gone in an evening. The roof collapsed on the building & they are going to do an evaluation to see if the building needs to be torn down because it might no longer be structurally sound.
And that sickens me.

Christmas time!!!

I don't know about you guys, but we got a lot of snow dumped on us in the past two days. It's wonderful!!! I absolutely LOVE small towns, some business was playing Christmas carols outside while the snow was falling, making the walk we took to the library even more perfect.
My snow hat is out of storage again, and oh how I'd forgotten how much I love it! Super comfy and warm. Makes me miss Montana though...
Lately I've been spending hours with the computer for company- uploading and organizing my family's pictures of 20+ years. It takes a while, thank heaven for digital is all I can think. I'm almost done with part of my Aunt's Christmas present though and that makes me happy :) Now I just have everyone else's stuff to go through...
I put in for a start up kit with this work-at-home company and frankly I'm not too darn impressed. Depending on how things pan out I could either be making 50 cents a product or 15 cents. That's a huge variance and I'm not exactly thrilled about the latter number. They are a small craft and take some delicate work. Called the company to double-check, they were out of the office, will call again tomorrow if they don't call back.
Anyway, time to run- I have some errands to do and the snow has stopped enough that I'd want to venture out of the house. Wish me luck!
