Octopus Update

 


Update to my Octopus story.  We ended up going back to the same spot to snorkel and I was able to find my Octopus.  He was in the exact same place as I found him before.  I was able to show him to Jeff.  This time he kept creeping out of his little nest.  I think he was actually curious about me.  I would swim away and he would poke his head up above the coral and then as I swam back he would sink back down in his hole.  But as I kept doing that he began to not go back into his hole but he would just watch me.  I can't wait to go back and see if he gets more used to me.  I would love to see him come out of his hole. 






This is the part of the octopus that I can see.  


This is what the octopus looks like.  It's a Day Octopus.  At least that is what I can find out from looking for pictures of it.

It was so crazy! In the mean time Amanda and I had planned a trip to Seattle to visit Grandma Martenson and celebrate her 88th birthday!  I wanted Amanda to be able to see Grandma before she ...

Girl's Spa Day Out Gone Very Wrong!

Image
A few weeks ago I and a few of my cute co-workers decided to go for a "Girl's Spa Day"! We booked "Bodywraps" and talked about it for weeks, how fun it would be and how many inches we would lose. When they asked if we all wanted to be in the same room we replied sure..it would be more fun that way. We were pumped! The big day arrives and we show up at the appointed hour....little did we know. We each had our own personal body wrapper who escorted us into one big room with four beds and said, "Okay, take off your clothes!" We looked at each other, looked at them and said, "Ummmm, we are not that kind of friends." Hailey didn't mind as she was the only one with regular unmentionables. The rest of us had to don the "paper underwear" that they keep for just such occasions....oh my, it was like wearing a paper thong! We begged for robes...an essential part of any spa experience I have ever had...and were brought some towels ...
