wind chill right now is 17
Are you feeling better today?
So I just spent the last hour trying to get rubber cement out of my carpetMy darling daughter left the jar ajar and it spilt allllll over!!
This is after spilling paint earlier tonight. I actually went in and woke her up to help....ended up sending back to bed after about 10 minutes. I am just so frustrated with my family after this weekend.
Have you seen the roll-on scrapbook adhesive? That's what we use. It is more like tape so it can't spill.
I can't believe that I woke up to this many pages!! 
It was great catching up though! I'll think of my list later today...
We're supposed to have a winter storm warning tonight too, with 4-6 inches of ice. UGH! I am so ready for some sunshine! 
Did you guys hear that one of the Biergarten CM's died of a heart attack on stage on 1/31? He was only 48, he had been at Biergarten for 24 years and to make the tragedy even worse for his poor family his dad died 3 hours later that same day.
I really am having a hard time with this infection, so I made the decision to stay home last night and miss the Pat Green concert. Instead, I watched TV. The boys spent the night at my brother and SIL's house, so it was quieter around here this morning, and we could take our time getting ready for Church.
I barely made it through Sunday School before I was tired, but we stayed through Church, then I crashed for the afternoon. We met Dad in Rockwall (40 min. away) for dinner at my favorite burger/cheese fry place. I split one with my SIL, but I'll still regret it in the morning when I get on that scale.
I hope everyone gets off to a great week!
Lindsay - I don't know where you are hiding your extra 30 pounds because you look terrific!
I don't know how much weight I would like to lose. I don't think I will ever be down to 120 again. When I got pregnant with DS I weighed 137, and I was so sick I dropped down to 129 the first trimester. The day I delivered him I weighed 167. When I came home from the hospital I weighed 160. I lost his PRECISE weight - 7 lbs. Apparently the amniotic fluid and the placenta were weightless.I dropped 20 more pounds in the first few weeks after I had him and I have been hovering around or just above 140 for the past 12 years. Last year around this same time when I REALLY tried to eat better and drink lots of water I think I got down to maybe 136 or so. Now I am back to 145.
But trust me, it's there! I called my mother today. They had 9 inches of snow this week. So...
She decided she didn't want to wait for the apt. complex to clear the path. She trudged out to her car, cleaned it off, and drove across town to her storage unit to get her snow shovel. If I am not mistaken this is the shovel she has from when we lived where it snowed. Namely Massachusetts. In the 1970's. She got stuck inthe snow at the storage place but they helped her get unstuck. Then they had to help her shut the door to her unit because it wasn't closing properly. She went home and cleared the path with her shovel, then the plow came by and buried her nice clear path. So she went outside and shouted at them that she expected to have a clear path. They did clean it off somewhat, but not to her satisfaction.Oh, my.
Her birthday is Tuesday. I asked her if she is going to do anything, and I told her I have her card but it will be late because I ran out of stamps. She said birthdays are only fun if someone takes you to dinner and buys you nice presents, so for her it is just another day. How does one respond to that?
And poor thing with all that snow!
I wrote a love letter to him. In crayon. I wonder why he didn't respond personally?
So I just spent the last hour trying to get rubber cement out of my carpet
That sounds mighty unpleasant.
I hope everyone has a good Monday! I'll pop in after I get everybody to school!
