So for Christmas, my Mom gave all the guys in the family an iTunes gift card. My hubbie hadn't used it until just recently and was kind enough to let me buy some songs too, even though it was his present. Yay! I finally had a chance to go snag all those singles I've heard on the radio that totally got stuck in my head. Yay and Yay again! There's ( Read more... )

I really dislike the month of March, probably more than any other month, especially here in New England. It's such a cold, drab month after the snow melts and everything is just a murky gray color, or if there is still snow, it's all dirty sludge. Ugh!

That's the problem with working all these extra holiday hours... there's no time left for anything else, or if there is, being on my feet all day dealing with panicked and ( Read more... )

I finally get a day off and what do I do... everything that got put off while I've been working the more busy holiday hours. Got lots accomplished though! Did all the laundry, finished up the dishes, cleaned the bathroom, baked a loaf of pumpkin bread for breakfast tomorrow, and successfully procrastinated doing any vacuuming whatsoever! I've ( Read more... )

Why is it when bad luck strikes, it always seems to strike in streaks? Maybe it's that misery loving company thing? Eh... I could do without thanks. So after my car up and died and we managed to get me a new used car, Joe's car decided that, being a Florida car, it wasn't going to deal with winter anymore and so up and died. Well, wouldn't work to ( Read more... )
