Yesterday I was sitting at work, when suddenly this blinding light hit me in the face through the window. It was the sun! I know, that isn’t a shock to many people who live in places where the sun actually shines in the winter, but I have lived in the Pacific NW all of my …

Yesterday morning I left the house early so I could get to the Lab Corp office right when they opened, so I could get blood drawn for tests my doctor needs for my appointment on Friday. I can honestly say that I was very impressed by the technician who took my blood – it didn’t …

Yesterday was one of those days when I headed out to work, and within a few miles, realized that everyone in the world (within my sight anyway) was stupid. They were driving too slowly or tailgating too closely. They were passing where they shouldn’t or weaving back and forth – so I’m SURE they were …

Good Morning Everyone! Did you have a great weekend? We had an incredibly lazy day on Saturday, watching stupid sci-fi movies on TV. Seriously they call them B movies, but they really didn’t reach the level of B, in my opinion. We spend quite a bit of time laughing at them. Sunday Russ hung out …
Weekends are nice, even though many of us had a short week due to snow and road closures. The problem with snow days for me is that Hubby works so close to home, that he still manages to go in to work, which means that I’m awake and out of bed when he is so …

And boom, just like that it is Friday! Snow days are awesome for shortening the work week, aren’t they? Yesterday was my first day out of the house since last Friday. It seemed like EVERYONE was in store. I didn’t get much – just a couple of steaks, some pre-made mashed cauliflower and a treat …
It always amazes me after a snow in this area, how quickly it melts off. We can already see almost half of our yard, the roads are clear, and though the temperatures dropped below freezing last night and I’m sure I’m going to be driving along on solid ice, I am more than ready to …
Snow Day # 3 and I have to admit, as much as I love snow days and being home, I’m getting a little itchy to get out of the house. I could have made it to work just fine this morning, as our roads where we live appear to be fine, however it appears that …

Last night the weather started to change, which I am meeting with conflicted emotions. On the one hand, I know I can’t keep missing work, but on the other, I have been wishing for snow for so many years, that waking up to rain – albeit a cold rain – was a little sad for …
Another Snow Day . . . But at the Rate It Is Melting, I’m Guessing It’s the Last One Read More »
Standing on the front porch this morning, around 4 a.m., there was a hush that only comes after the snow. It started falling around noon on Friday, accumulating just under 11 inches overnight. It snowed on and off for awhile on Saturday, then was sunny for awhile into Sunday morning, starting to snow again in …
