staying late...

So I noticed it had been awhile since I posted (no one else probably did;))and since I have to stay late today to make up for yesterday I thought I'd post.

Birthday went well, good friends, good food and good wine who could ask for anything more?!

I did get a new camera so soon there will be pictures...really I mean it this time.

My Nick turns 16 today! I can not believe it, it really only seems like yesterday that I was holding the most perfect little baby and now he's nearly a man. Time really does get away from us doesn't it?

He has to work, but said he wanted Chinese for dinner so I'll call it in and have it delivered for when he gets home. We have really cut back in eating out and ordering out, so this is a treat, mostly because it's his birthday;)

hmmmm and yummm

My it's been a while, but who cares no one reads anyway and I am a sad show with no pics although with the birthday this weekend a camera for me may be in the offing?

Yesterday I got my package from the Woolen Rabbit and I am in LOVE the colors OMG!!! I will have to get Claire to take a picture and help me get it on here for the record. I am thinking about doing one of Anne's Little Nothing Scarves with it...we'll see.

Other than that it is finally Spring here this week, last week nearly put me under the bed with the rain and snow, but this week's sun and fine temps I'm good as new!

it's all good...

Yay! Mitch won, Dr. Elmer won, Aimmie won, and Nancy won I'm hardly bothered by the fact that pig face Gableman won, all I can say is be careful what you wish for.

It was a late night as Mitch's race was tighter than any of the others, but for once this county did the right thing, however, can NOT say the same for this town...MY GOD what ignorant buffoons! that felt good! But ha! he did win and for that I am glad.

Took the day off, really almost felt like going in but what the hell didn't and I'm OK with that too, I'm sure I'll make up for it tomorrow but that's okay as it will be Thursday.

april fools...

So today I was a total whack job at work! Mouthed off to the Dean's secretary...later apologized all is well and we are now best friends. Had a ton of work to do...the cause...IT'S ELECTION DAY PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!! I am worried sick for Mitch and Teri he is so worthy of the judgeship it isn't even funny and I'm totally scared to death that that bitch Carrie S will win out of partistian ship makes me want to throw up. But I did my part and god bless him so did Bruce.

So I'm off to the VICTORY party and here's hoping I took tomorrow off for a good reason...hangover!

can't even begin...

So it's been no secret that I've been sick, in fact I'm sick of being sick! Well, guess who got the flu for an anniversary gift...BRUCE! Yep, I told him to leave me alone when I was sick but NO, he wasn't thinking with the right head if you get my drift. Of course to be fair one of his students could have totally brought it back with them from Spring Break, it doesn't matter but it was a bummer to have him act like he was dying all day yesterday and putting the kabash on our celebration plans. The kids and I worked around him all day, now they'll get it I'm sure and completely ruin their spring break, and instead of going out to HuHot for dinner we ordered Chinese in...not the same at all but at least I didn't have to cook:)

Most of the snow is gone...and it may actually get up to the 40's this week so by next weekend it should all be gone, unless we get more that is.

Election day is coming (April 1st!)and this is when I wish I actually had people reading this. But since I don't I'll just say: GO MITCH, GO DR. ELMER, GO AIMMIE, GO NANCY!!!

Enough said I'm anxious for all of them since the area is so damn Republican and they all lean Democratic even though they are all running for non-partisan positions, Judicial and school board.
Party affiliation aside they are all good people and we need the change they will bring.

Done...happy Easter!

Later...

yippee!!

Rock on today maybe Thursday...but really Friday in that I don't have to be back to work until Monday. Actually I put in to take Monday off but not sure I want to waste vacation hours just because.

Saturday is our 17th wedding anniversary...man I cannot believe it...more amazing is that we've actually been together 20 years. He's a great dad and husband, he puts up with my moods (for which there are many), he has the cutest smile and the bluest eyes;) I love him!

so I am going to enjoy my three-day weekend (maybe 4) Happy Easter all!

Later....

damnit!

No other words can describe it...DAMNIT...I'm sick again! Actually this is the first I feel "well" enough to even write about it. Started with a little cough on about Wednesday and the bomb fell Thursday night...did I stay home from work? NO! Had plans I couldn't back out of all weekend and now am paying for it. Man even the coffee sucks!

Gotta get the groceries bought and the laundry done though...maybe not...and I may end up staying home tomorrow UGH!!

Later....maybe
