MOUSE! Yeah... I've not had any visitors yet this season... with this bad azz cold weather, if they aren't already in here... they won't be coming in.

Sounds like it's time for Scoop to call the Mouseinator....

SNOW SNOW SNOW SNOW SNOW! Beautiful SNOW! And the sun is shining - so it's sparkling! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

Dylan has his surgery today... we are getting ready to head to the hospital. It's minor surgery, but we are both a bit on the nervous side. I'm doing my best to keep my cool so I don't freak him out and I think he's trying to keep his cool too... That's my boy! He's a little miffed that he can't have anything to eat... but he's drinking apple juice until 10 AM!

ENJOY YOUR SUN AND SNOW!

REV IT UPx3!!!

Dylan's surgery went well! He's home resting comfortably! His feet are elevated and he has ice packs on his ankles!

All went well until he barfed in the van on the way home... the windows were froze shut... Thank goodness we had the bag they put his shoes in!

We got there at 11 AM, he got all set up and they gave him some drugs to take the edge off... he was sooooo funny! He was totally stoned! They finally took him back at 2:30 and the doc said that he was cracking jokes about not being alseep yet and then he fell asleep mid word!

Dylan did great... glad it's over and he's home and has his feet up!

Hey friends!

Wow, . . . . Spent the last 2 days clearing snow and stuff.

Jules: Glad Dylan is doing fine :O
Scoop: Get that knee in shape sista!, Sleddin' Time!
SQUAT: Did I Miss Something? New Sled? Fill me in.

We got around 14" . On Wednesday, the power went out in the Blizzard. 5:25am.
Since our sump pump is still running about every 10 minutes or so, I wanted to make sure
the battery back-up pump worked. IT Did. So, I went out and started to blow the snow.
Very heavy wet snow. Came in around Noon. Still No power, getting nervous that the battery back up may go dead, so I head over to the folks and borrow the generator.
Your right, Thank GOD for the New 4X4! The folks street was not plowed, IT WAS DEEP!
I get the generator home, and running, and hook the cord up to the REGULAR sump pump and let that baby run for a while. Then Generator dies. Nobody has electricity in the area, so I head North 6miles to The nearest Auto parts store for some new plugs, and Heat.
By the time I get home, The electricity just goes on! Whew! Talk about the furnace running for awhile!
Got the generator running, so it is set for the next adventure. Spent all day yesterday blowing and shoveling again! All nice and cleared. Ready for the next event!
Put about 3 miles on the sled going around the yard. Man that snow is deep! It was flying over the headlights! YIPPPEEEEEEEE!
It is currently 7 below out. and I am fine with sitting at the 'puter.

Going to finish filling out the application for a Corrections Officer Position at the local County facility. Man, would THAT be sweet!

Well Peeps,
TIKI is all restocked, and I AM SORE.
I'll be in the corner getting a full massage from all my female snow peeps!
:O

~later!

Good Friday morning! It's cold out there but beautiful with the sun shining on the snow. I am on vacation yesterday and today. I got some stuff done yesterday, mainly a dentist appointment, a new battery for my truck and some house cleaning and laundry. Today I may hibernate for a while and start doing Christmas cards. I'm not sure why I do them, but some people in my family expect them.

Bradzoo - I'm thinking that one of my cats brought the mouse upstairs since I found a piece of insulation (from the basement boxsill) in my dining room. I am glad they did not bring it into my bed! Yuck! I did find the little sucker when I got home. It was under the love seat in my living room. I moved the seat, it ran out and my cat grabbed it. He didn't kill it, though, so I grabbed a tupperware container and trapped it and I slid the lid underneath. The stupid thing is that I couldn't kill it. It was too cute. I probably killed it anyway because I opened the door and flung it into the snow. It may end up back in my house. LOL!

Julie - I'm glad Dylan's surgery went well. I know what those drugs can do! I'm sure he was funny as all heck!

BigVin - The knee is ready for ridin'! The bumps may hurt a bit, but it can't be any worse than doing squats and lunges. (O.k., no wisecracks about doing Squat!) I don't have my sled here at home. It's at Simonars. I was going to pick it up today, but they are still waiting to get a new handgrip since I had told them the heated handgrip wasn't working on one side. Their parts shipment may have been delayed by the snow because they usually would have it done by now. Hopefully I can pick up the sled tomorrow.

Well, it's time to go do my upper body workout. I was too lazy to get up early this morning to do it.

Hey,

How do I make a smiley face now?

Technology, . . . . . . . I tell ya.

Brother Vinnie - the smilies have been turned off along with the signatures.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>

Glad to hear that you got your electricity back... you would think with today's technology they would be able to keep the power on during these storms...<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I remember when I was little, living in Iowa, during the big blizzards, the power would go out and my dad would load us all in the tractor plow thingy and drive us to the end of our dirt road where the manager of the Holiday Innl my mom worked at would pick us up and take us to the Holiday Inn! We were there one time for over a week!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I had to use 4 wheel drive while driving Big Red... damn thing was totally squirrely during the storm… the back end kept trying to come around. Flipped her into 4wheel and all was gooooood! <o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
I gotta finish this practice final for my math class so I can take the final tomorrow and be done with math!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Next week I will be in the Project Management class all week - preparing for the PMP/CAPM test. I need to find a study group for that one before I take the tests.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
All this school crap is really getting on my nerves!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
HI EVERYONE!!!<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
MERRY CHRISTMAS MERRY CHRISTMAS MERRY CHRISTMAS<o:p></o:p>

I PASSED MY MATH TEST!​

I got 100% on it!! I'm still pulling a 4.0 - All A's in all my classes so far. I AM SO EXCITED!

HI to everyone who finally made it to the new board. It's a little strange out there now... but you'll get used to it!

Yes, Christmas is SOOOOOOOOO CLOSE - now that Math is over, I'm gonna concentrate on prepping for Christmas. Get the tree up ( I KNOW! I've been distracted!) Make cookies and breads. Christmas from the heart not the wallet is my motto. So the boys and I will be making fun things for our family.

I pray that we all have a very BLESSED Christmas and New Year!!!

GOD BLESS!!

REV IT UPx3!!!

Congratulations Julie. I certainly admire your 'focusing' on your studies and determination to do your best. All this in addition to looking for a job/daily stress issues and so forth and so on. Keep up the good attitude. We all can learn a thing or two from your positive outlook/attitude.
