Got to see my kids on Sunday! The girls played guitar hero and they may not have much rhythm but they are good. They both get very good grades in their advanced classes and are pretty good in sports too. Field and track starts today and they are both in track and various other fields like discus and shot put and relays, maybe pole vault.
It ends up that I am working Wednesday too... so here I am on NOTH when I should be fixing dinner or paying bills or... And, here I am telling you...
It's the weekend and today we reached our high by 8 am. So the only way is up from here and for March warmer days to come. I will be working Monday and Tuesday. I'm excited to get out of the house. You know I will be thinking of you and
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive, to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.
Now that your eyes are open, make the sun jealous with your burning passion to start the day. Make the sun jealous with your happiness ,joy and loveof the day to share with others
The sun is shining! The ice is melting! It is Friday! Softball and Baseball games will be on later today. What a glorious day God has made. I already had calls from 2 friends that shared stories of miracles of their answered prayers. We will be cold again tomorrow and hopefully after that a warm up is on the way.
What do you do when it doesn't get above freezing for two days and one more to go? Well, I worked in the computer room. Got 7 year old taxes ready to shred, filed paperwork, threw away old boxes to be recycled, paid bills (until I ran out of money) and now I need to eat something today as it is almost Friday!
Yes! We are having another ICE storm. So many wrecks on the main roads that have overpasses. But today there is school and the buses are running. Go figure! We are at 24 with freezing rain and snow. It will be mid Friday before our temperatures are above freezing.
Back to adding lots of layers today. It has steadily dropped temperatures all day and I keep putting on more clothes. You can hear the wind whipping out there. We will be near 80 on Monday and have freezing rain on Wednesday. This winter is CRAZY!
Mid 70's today and low 20's tomorrow night. Yesterday and today the winds are 40+ mph. Sinuses are awful. But...
We voted in the Texas Primary (early voting) today. Hubby also bought a bigger and wider pair of shoes to fit his tender toes today. So we are back and settled in, waiting for precious drops of rain that are desperately needed to put out wildfires during this windy and dry spell.
Now that that tune is stuck in your head... we were 70's yesterday and we are 39 and dropping today with light rain and possible snow and 30+ mph winds. Can you say Burrrr?
From shorts to snowsuits again. At least I was smart enough to move and cover plants yesterday. That wind is miserable out there today.
So dogs are all in, actually in Hubby's lap curled up and ready for a nap. I am trying to decide what sounds good to eat during our cold snap.
It is a perfect day for cooking and cleaning as both of them warm you up. I hope you have a blessed weekend and share your smile with others.
I have such mixed emotions about not working almost full time vs now only a couple of days a month. I love working for Kelly and love all the clients. Edward Jones is a wonderful place to work. The new full time girl is so sweet and such a fast learner.
At the same time, it is nice to be home and get things done here too. I got taxes dropped off. Hubby got the pins out of toes and is out of the boot. I have been to Costco, the grocery store, and of course Suburban Plants for eucalyptus plants.
Plants have been uncovered for a couple of days but today some get the plastic put back over them again in my makeshift greenhouse and the tall ones go back into the garage. We will have one or two nights just below freezing even though we are in the mid 70's today and will be back to the 60's a few days next week.
So since it is almost noon, I guess I had better get busy around here. I do have to change my nails soon and get rid of hearts as our Primary early voting starts on Monday and we will vote sometime next week. So Red, white and blue of some kind will be my next theme.
Doesn't take me long to forget what day it is now. I have such mixed emotions as I miss work but I am getting lots of odd jobs done at home.
And of course, that means the coffee pot is empty. At work it would be noon or after before I finished my second cup. Tomorrow, I am taking tax stuff to CPA (new one since my girl retired- boo hoo). Thursday, Hubby gets pins out of toes and we get to run a few errands.
We started this day colder than normal and will be higher than normal before the day is done. It is so hard to uncover my makeshift greenhouse and worry about being 28° as the crack of dawn appears. But 65° to 74° is just too tempting so I am heading outside. Time to uncover plants and clean Hummingbird feeders.
