Snow moving machine
I just finished shoveling the driveway(s). (We have two..the one that goes to the garage and the one that is the original driveway for the house, and it the one we have to go down to get our mail from the box on the street.) There was maybe two or three inches of snow on the ground and it was the fluffy kind, but I'm still kind of sore. But the Mr ( Read more... ) -

The Birthday Weekend Rules
This is the start of my birthday weekend (because my wonderful,if sometimes exasperating, boss gave me 4 days off..a three-day weekend and my birthday) and the rules are now in effect.
What rules, I hear you asking? These rules:
1. You may eat anything you want, in any quantity, without feeling guilty about it or wasting time worrying about ( Read more... ) -
Pardon me while I get my heart started again.
I worked a mid-shift today and was pretty tired by the end of it. I pulled out of our parking lot and hadn't gone very far when all of a sudden I've got flashing blue-and-red lights in my rear-view mirror!

Second Christmas or, the Kitteh and the Shower
We had "Second Christmas" with the daughter and SIL today. They spent actual Christmas across the state with his parents and brother and others.

And because ( Read more... ) -
The old year now has passed away...
I can't quite believe that 2010 is over. It went by so fast at times and then slowed to a crawl. I went from 5 grandchildren to 7..two healthy twins to join the triplets in mayhem. My personal odometer rolls over to begin another decade next month and I'm still not sure how I feel about that. On the other hand, the Mr. and I are still here and ( Read more... ) -

Frosty the Snowman
We got our first big snow storm of the season today...I'm already tired of it! The drive to work was no fun ..slushy, icy road that hadn't been plowed properly and an accident that we had to go around. And then try to slow down for the ambulance and fire truck that were coming toward us. I was so busy trying not to slide off the road into the ( Read more... )
