More Fluffy, White Stuff!

The weathermen are predicting 3 to 5 inches of snow, starting about 10 o’clock tonight.  Winter does not want to let go this year.  I love snow when it is freshly fallen, but it loses its appeal after it gets brown and dirty from all the cars.  I must confess though, I do like that homey feeling when its snowing and I get my hot chocolate and am all warm and cozy in my jammies LOL.   

My daughter came back from the doctors and she has chronic bronchitis and she has 3 prescriptions to have filled.  They have her out of work until Tuesday.  Thank goodness she has a good boss and has paid sick time.  I remember the days when I worked and we didn’t get paid when we were out.  A day out was a day of lost wages.  I feel bad for people who can’t afford to stay home and take care of themselves and get better.

It seems everyone you talk to is sick or has been recently.  There is more than one strain going around.  My daughter got both of them within two weeks time.  Poor thing is prone to bronchitis and it makes it hard because she has the type of job where she is on the phone talking all day.  Yesterday, she tried to go back to work and customers were so rude to her and got snippy….telling her they couldn’t understand her.  People are just so patient and kind….(yes that was a bit of sarcasm lol)  People in these days are so heartless, and selfish…of course I am not referring to all …..but the Lord did say in the last days people would be lovers of themselves.  Boy O’ Boy, he wasn’t lying~ lol 

I guess I’ll go see what we are doing for supper tonight….Pizza sounds good    

Have a good night,

Spring where are you?

I saw a robin a few days ago in a tree outside my bedroom window. She was so fat, that she must of been looking for a place to lay her eggs.  My first thought was, “Ahhhh spring is almost here.”  Then I remembered that it is still February.  I am starting to get  ”Itchy” for spring!!!!

I don’t want to get to excited just yet, as we had a light covering of snow last night   I am getting a bad case of spring fever about now lol.  I love winter, but when I’ve had enough of it, I just want to  spring forward! haha   I know, I know that was corny lol

I wasn’t too happy with my daughter’s cat today…as I was making the bed I noticed a slice in the material on my NEW comforter (gasp).  It was from his back toenails which was clipped a few weeks ago.  So, now he is banned from sleeping on my bed.  This isn’t the first time he has ruined a bedspread on me.   Somehow, he never seems to ruin his “Mothers” (which is my daughter lol) things.  So, needless to say I am not feeling the “warm fuzzies” when I see him today. lol  My daughter gave me a saying that was on her mini calendar from work the other day that says…..”He swings from the chandelier, he paws my peanut butter, and he knocks over my drink in the most unfortunate places in the house—but I still love him like crazy.  It’s like a hairball in my heart.”     He sure is a hairball to me today, just not too sure its in my heart lol

How not to answer the phone…:)

Hi!  Glad you’ve found me   As my about me section says, I am generally a happy  (I use the term loosely today)  person.     I was not having a good day when I had to run out to pick my daughter up from work 2 hours after just dropping her off. I had just heated up my lunch in  the microwave when  the phone rang.  She’s been really sick, so I knew I had to go get her. I tell her…. Ok, I’ll be there in 10 minutes.  My lunch has been overheated and is now dried out and cold again. 

I get to her work and sit there for 10 minutes waiting for her, I am getting very agitated that she isn’t outside waiting for me.  I call her cell 5 times consecutively and still she is not answering yet.  What is she doing???? I am getting more irritated and my cell phone rings and I ASSUME (know what they say about that? lol)  that it is her… Soooo, I answer the phone with a loud, irritated tone and say, “I am waiting out here!”  Only to find its not my daughter calling me!  It’s a woman who I have not talked to in a long time..She says excuse me? Talk about embarrassed!   I had a case of foot in mouth disease!  The moral of the story is this, we should always talk to our family with the same kindness and patience we would a stranger!   God is always showing us where we need more work.  Sure glad He doesn’t give up on us!
