Hello...

We are warming up… this needs to stop, we need more snow before spring comes. :)

I had such a fun day. Sitting and waiting for over an hour and a half for them to service my car. I’m pretty patient though, I finished the book I was reading. I got up to stretch my legs, thinking maybe they have forgotten I am here. Lo and behold there was my car and the service guy coming in to get me. This after being told, we’re not to busy, it won’t take long…ha.

I saw an angel walking into Cori’s school the other morning. White sheet wrapped around, sort of like a toga… with an aluminum foil halo. A male angel… makes you go hummm…

Take care,
Sheila

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hope everyone had a nice day today. We got plenty of goodies and candies and cards. Hubby and I had dinner out too.

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone,
Sheila

It's that time of year again...

Hubby went and got our tax software yesterday. He finished the federal and part year Alabama resident, now we need to print the NC forms. Thankfully, we are getting refunds for federal and AL state, and hopefully for NC too. We need all we can get with another daughter starting college in the fall…ha.

The week went by without a hitch. School was delayed two hours on Thursday for the dusting of snow we got. One morning I heard birds’ chirping when I returned from taking Cori to school I guess they didn’t realize it was 25 degrees outside.

Hubby is out playing a round of golf today…I am enjoying the quiet of no TV. :)

Take care,

Sheila

Rain, rain go away...send us snow instead...

Hi all,

We are a little rainy and chilly here. Cori had a two-hour delay at school again on Friday. There was a chance of sleet and roads icing over. Earlier this year they had a couple of kids get killed going to school and a couple of school buses slid off the road because of icing, so I think now they are being more cautious.

I think Hubby is a little chilly; he is sitting in his rocking chair covered with a throw. I had the fireplace on earlier to get the chill out of the room, but I guess I didn’t get enough of it out.

I am going to fix lasagna today with garlic bread. Tomorrow it will be chili…then probably a couple of days of leftovers…ha.

We were planning to visit Mount Airy (Mayberry) today, but we will wait for a sunnier Saturday. No hurry, it ain’t going no where…ha.

Hope everyone has a nice weekend,
Sheila

Nice weekend...

Well, well, well, we had a nice weekend here. It was warm enough for Hubby to play golf this weekend, not once but twice. His usual golfing buddy had knee surgery a few months ago and then after Christmas had a bout of Bronchitis and Pneumonia. But he is finally back at work and was able to play golf Saturday. Then another buddy had a birthday Sunday so eight of them played on Sunday. He also watched a movie with us both days. Jarin bought ‘House of Wax’ (newer version) recently so we watched that Saturday night. Sunday afternoon we watched ‘RED’ with Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman and Helen Mirren. It was a good movie.

Jarin has a bad cold so we went to the minute clinic on Monday. She gave her some medicine for cough that looks like tiny round vitamin E pills. She is only supposed to take them when she has a coughing spell. She also told her to take Sudafed 12 hour and ibuprofen and spray her nose with saline spray. I put off getting a flu shot last year, but I got one while I was there with her.

We are supposed to get up to around 60 today, then cool back down again tomorrow. I was checking the 10-day forecast and it shows snow showers on Tuesday Feb. 8th. Fingers crossed…ha.

Have a great rest of the week,
Sheila
