We went to the mall today and I bought a new handbag, trouble is it's way smaller than my old one and I can't fit everything in
But is it cute?
He gets back pretty late Friday night, I think. They took two planes, and Deb's DH was on the other one. He thought she needed a break, so she went, too, on her pilot free pass deal. I'm a little jealous! We watched the Samantha Brown show that I'd recorded, and it looks really lovely.
The schools will be open tomorrow I am sure, but then Wednesday is a carp shoot since they are calling for another 1 -2
feet Tuesday night into Wednesday
We're showing 80% chance on Wed., but now the local guys are saying, "It looks like it's tracking pretty far south again, so only the extreme southern part of the state will have much chance of accumulation."
Even D, who wants snow, REALLY wants the snow up north on the ski hills,
not in our driveway. And, of course, he's gone.
Just realised I didn't tell you all this and thought you may like to know that (sorry it's slightly comlicated) my sisters FIL has just sold his London flat to Chelsy, Prince Harry's girlfriend and apparently he's moved in too. Get this though they asked for some furniture to be left so Prince Harry is now sleeping in the same bed that Emma has
Oooh, that's cool!
I know it's ridiculous, but I'm so depressed over the Colts loss.
I like New Orleans and thought I'd be ok if they won. Yea, I'm not.
I'm sorry - like V, sort of.
Sports can hit us weird sometimes. I remember how truly depressed I was for several days back in 2004 when the U of I lost the NCAA championship. Yes, I rooted for them. Yes, I'm an alum, but I was also 10 years out of school at that point, and it shouldn't have mattered that much.
We had a Super Bowl party here at our house with just family and at the last quarter we did squares. My uncle ended up winning $25.
We said next year we should do a bigger one and then we all can win more money.
I felt it wasn't bad at $1/square for a 10x10 grid. I bought 10 of them, so I'm still up $10, and it's kind of fun. Too bad I left before winning anything, though!
I know it's not as bad as the dumping Janet got, but really - it's FLORIDA for goodness sake! Enough with the cold!
You didn't sign up for this.
This has been the longest winter since we've been here.
El Nino. I really hope hurricane season isn't bad without Mitch.
I really hope so, too.
*************************************************
I really wasn't up that late nor did I overindulge, but I had a bit of a hard time falling asleep last night. I admit totally that I got up and got the kids out, then actually went back to bed. Didn't even nap on the couch, sort of snoozing - flat out back to bed.
I've been back up for a while, though - talking to my neighbor and I will be leaving to do the team tennis practice in a few.
She's excited - she got offered a part-time job doing online academic advising at a local college. She (like me) has worked for colleges before and loved it (like I did) and so it's good. But, as she was saying, she applied and did all this, and now is freaking out that they are looking for a 12 month person, not a "school year" position, and what would she do with her kids through the summer, etc. They're in 8th and 3rd now, so really they'd be OK for the 4 hours a day she'd be gone, but she's a little more of a worrier than I am, and I think it's at least partly that whole reality check thing that mostly any of us SAHM's would have about how much life will change once we had to do something every day.
Anyway... I need to think about going, but I wanted to stop in and say hello.
Hope everyone's having a nice Monday so far. I'll BBL.
Glad school is going well!
Thanks Janet! 
/ Then they came home, built a snowman, and now they are playing in the backyard. Me, I too a shower, am doing laundry and am getting ready to make the cord bread top for the chili!
Enjoy your day off!
Must be a sign that I need to talk to Janet! 
- one of our girls had some floating cartilage removed from a knee Friday, then today, both girls who were supposed to play the "second doubles" match on Wednesday decided that they have too bad of tennis elbows to play - one couldn't even serve today. So, now, I am playing on Wed. (assuming we're not snowed in.)
