Good wednesday morning

Floridaboiler · Mar 23, 2011

Good Morning,
Part of our new furniture get delivered today. That is kind of cool. Other than that it is just another day in sunny and warming up Florida. last night I got spam email from my sisters email account. Today I have nothing planned after work so that is a nice change. Other than that not a whole hell of a lot is going on. I need to make a dentist appointment real soon. I havent been in a long time and now that i have insurance I need to get back in the habit of it.
 
have a good day.

Good morning. I'm a little jealous of the sunny and warm....
 
That's cool about new furniture. Post a pic!
 
Not a lot going on here right now either. But, both DS and DD are playing both lacrosse and baseball this spring. That's going to be hell on all of us!
 
Have a good one.

Morning. Went to bed too early, woke up too early. Oh well.
 
It is nasty outside. Rained just about all day yesterday and after midnight it switched over to snow. It is blowing and still snowing and I imagine that there is ice under all that snow too. What a mess this will be for a few days.
 
It has been a long winter. We officially went 118 days with continuous snow on the ground. Had this storm been a day earlier the ticker would still be counting!

Good morning. I woke up insanely early (3:00 a.m.) and couldn't go back to sleep. My brain turned on thinking about everything going on at work today. Oh well. We have a high of 54 today, it must be spring. Our grass is turning green, which means its time to think about dusting off the mower and the rototiller. Have a good day all.

eric,
Ditto on what Benj said....let's see pix, when you get everything set up!
 
todd,
It is basically just schlitty here too~~~>cold, driving rain [and lots of it] *gak*
 
benj,
Lacrosse is making huge gains in popularity here. Lots of entry-level younger kids playing!
It is no longer just a nor'east sport, eh?
 
shadow,
How soon do you usually get your spring gardens planted? What grows well in Boise? I'm curious as to whether you and I have similar growing seasons.

Sis, mom, and I went to a matinee of 'The King's Speech' yesterday.
my review:
EXCELLENT!!!! Worth seeing!
I can understand why it won so many awards.
 
Today I've got bootcamp, then school, then blah blah blah, then a dental appt (hope he can find what the HELL is bothering my upper/lower left side....I'm thinking that I'll need some dental work done in the near future)

Good morning. Supposedly a wintry mix outside, have not looked yet, kinda scared to

Zoe is still sleeping, hope she stays asleep for atleast another hour. In the middle of the night i went to put the new insert in the vaporizer and rubbed my eye afterwards, OMFG! It was horrifically painful for atleast 10+ minutes. I was half asleep and not thinking. Ugh.

Morning. dropped my mom off at airpot this morning - she's off to visit friends in NC for ten days. Taking Powie the wonder dog to vet soon - he's getting the family jewels removed. Right now he thinks were starving him - no food or water since 8:30 last night.
MG that makes my eyes hurt just reading it!

Just the chair and couches are being delivered today. The table wasn't available until May so we have to wait until then for that delivery. After that gets delivered though we get a new big screen tv. Woot!

 We don't actually plant anything outside until May usually. We (meaning DH) start growing seeds indoors earlier. We usually have a bumper crop of tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers and strawberries. We had cucumbers up to our ears last year and DH made some awesome pickles!!

Weather has broken today, with rain falling, and thankfully the temperatures dropping to the 60's. My Spanish Class was cancelled this morning, so I suddenly got 4 hours to myself, and like a sad person, I spent it preparing my own english classes for next week. Will head for a run around 5, rain or shine, at least it won't be hot.

meri,
OMFG is RIGHT! EEEEK!
 
eric,
[homer voice] mmmmmmmm, big screen tv, mmmmmmmm [/homer voice]

You can nickname hime "Conehead the Barbarian"
 
shadow,
Our spring veggies begin in late April-early May. (lettuces, etc)
We grow the same items as you + sweetcorn, squash, pumpkins, stringbeans, snap peas, sweet & hot peppers, carrots, beets, lettuces, spinach, herbs, onions, taters, and other stuff which I'm forgetting. OY!

so, 'splain what it is you're doing in Argentina
 
 
teaching? HS? University?
 
Have you attended many FUTBOL matches down there? (complete with flares, guns, rockets, urine-filled cups)

Here are the couch and loveseat.
 
The new table is due in may. Once that is here I will take a picture of it all together. Please pardon the mess. The kids came home and dumped all their stuff right on the table. I got a recliner also, but I didn't bother taking a picture of that. The end seats of the couch are reclining and electric and they go WAY Back. The end seats of the loveseat recline also but they are manual. We are sitting much higher now as compared to our old stuff. Because the seats are smaller it totally changes the look of the room. It will take some getting used to.

The only pets we have are the kids and the fish so we can only keep the fish off the furniture, but so far it is still no food while on the couches. I will be sitting there with my beer etc while watching tv though. Maybe tomorrow I can get a picture of how far back the couch reclines. You go almost horizontal.

Good wednesday morning
