24 hours

We hit 18 degree's today! It was like a damn heat wave, thought about breaking out the sunblock and laying out, ( wonder were my swimsuit is?) not really but it only got down to -4 last night and with the warm up the roads are getting better everyday. We didn't have anyone slide off into the driveway, at least not while I was home, and I didn't have to lock it in 4-wheel drive to get in or out.

We have also had water for over 24 hours!!!!
There will be no living with us now, how will the neighbors ever keep up I wonder!

My husband got his new glasses and contacts yesterday, and boy have they made a difference. We bought a new HD TV a couple of weekends ago and I have been complaining that the picture on it just didn't look right, and he couldn't see it. When we brought it home he hooked it up using the same cables we had for the old TV. We bought the new cables he just hadn't installed them. (its a major job to pull out all of the components in order to switch all of the wires over) and he thought the picture was fine. So last night new glasses in hand (or I should say on face) he sat down to watch the tv and guess what? tonight he comes home and pulls all of the components out and replaces the wires then calls dish TV and orders a new HD receiver. he could finally see that the picture just didn't look right
I guess I better clean the cobwebs down from the corners now that he can see them.

Its a snow day

Odin digging his bones out of the snow
(these aren't very clear, they were taken through the glass and it was snowing)



Today was a snow day!
No they didn't cancel school (thank god) and no they didn't shut down all government business. I just called in sick. Due to snow. By the time I ventured out of the house I was really glad I had, the roads sucked, What I want to know is what the hell the snowplow drivers are doing just driving around? They aren't plowing snow, nor are they sanding the roads, there just driving around. Maybe there afraid they will run out of roads to clean and have to go home early or something.
Its still snowing, we have had about 7 inches so far and we are expecting 3 to 5 more tonight.
I did make it to the grocery store and stocked up on a few groceries just in case it never stops and we are snowed in, haha (that should only happen during the week so we can't go to work)
I hope it keeps snowing for days and days and days, will give me every reason to sit around in my jammies and paint or something!
