<p>sigh.... Tuesday... apparently today is going to be "I'm a whiney baby Tuesday"  I handed 2 of my workers something to do and both of them whined about it.  Whined like 3 year olds.  they are both 30+ years older than me and I've never had a problem with them getting punchy about stuff before.  Maybe it's the weather and the fact that everyone had to shovel last night. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>So one of my other co-workers loves dreary snowy weather and I'm not really a fan but yesterday when I was driving home it was really nice and pretty so I decided that when I got home I'd text her and tell her she was right it was really pretty out..... then I got stuck in my drive way..... again.  Luckily my neighbor was home and plowing already so while he was doing that I loaded some ha bales in to the barn and fed the horses and when I was done he was done with my part of the driveway so all I had to do was get unstuck and get into the garage!  I made him some peanut butter bars to thank him for plowing. </p>

<p>today might be too busy to really be fun, but the Vegas count down is low enough that it counts as fun already!</p>

<p>Snow (ice) day for us, so I've been having a lazy morning. I did make muffins, so that counts for something, right?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have a great day!</p>

Hey Becca, we still need to catch up when I'm down at Tyson's Corner.  I've been staying at the The Ritz at Tyson's 2.  We should meet up some night to window shop and grab a bite to eat.  I will be down there next Tuesday through Thursday. </p>

<p>Snow day here.  I was hoping to get Avery to school today so I could get some house cleaning done but looks like she'll be pulling out more toys today :(   The ice is bad and I got about 7 traffic alert texts of accidents on the route I used to take to work (DH's route now).  SOOOOO glad I get to work from home when I'm not travelling!  DH is working from home today too so we're one big happy family (ok, not too big with the 3 of us but add the two dogs, two fish and two frogs and its big).  Plan on baking cookies later...  Unfortunately, like Bob said this isn't the type of snow I can send the kid out to play in.  The dogs are hating it too.</p>

<p>Dh took the boys out this morning. It was raining, so Jack's fleece got wet and when they came back in Dh took it off. He didn't put another fleece on him though, so Jack was running around nekkid. Until he found his camo fleece in the living room. It was draped over the back of a chair, so Jack couldn't pull it off, but he kept brushing it with his head and crying at it. So Dh brought the fleece out to me, and Jack danced around for a minute in front of me and then plopped his butt down and lifted a paw. <em>"Put it on me!!!"</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p>(He lifts his paws one at a time so I can shove them through the sleeves.)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Once I got it all the way on him he started wiggling & pouncing around and smiling at me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Dork.</p>

<p>Hi....took Emersen back to the Dr yesterday and she has a double ear infection. Ugh. She started on antibiotics so hopefully they'll kick in quickly. We have a babysitter tonight b/c DH was nominated for CFO of the Year and the awards dinner is tonight.</p>
<p>It was 82 here yesterday- crazy weather. I can't say that I miss the snow!</p>

<p>Poor Emersen  :(   HUGS!!   But big congrats to DH, <strong>Kristi</strong>!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jack stories always crack me up!   And speaking of goofy animals, Dillon has a new best friend/favorite toy ...it's the friggin' plastic measuring tape!  It's a simple one, probably about 5-6 ft. long but he LOVES it!  Drags it around with him, sleeps on it, plays games jumping on/off the bed with it.  Total dork.</p>

<p>Hi all - well, made the trip back from Columbus safely and am back at work (boo!) loaded up with an extra shot of espresso - more will probably be needed to keep me upright</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I will say that hanging around 20-degree temps for a few days can make 40-degrees and foggy conditions seem absolutely balmy by comparison.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hugs to ((((Emersen)))))...but congrats to the DH, <strong>kj</strong>!!!</p>

<p>Yay for KJ's DH.  Man, you really need a break, KJ.  I hope things fall together for you.  Vibes for healthy babies and parental rest/destress.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just got an e-mail that registration opens for the chicago marathon on 2/1.  It is $145 - wow!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Hey - anyone hear from Missy lately?  Torque?</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p><snort> Love the Jack story.</p>

<p>Not so much fun, as bizarre!  I got a letter from the Social Security Admin. that I have been named as a potential witness in  federal investigation!  IT is nothing but a form to fill out, but CRAZY!! <span><img alt="cool.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/cool.gif"></span></p>

<p><strong>Kath</strong> - Heems was a cold puppy!  Kudos to him for making a big enough fuss for someone to notice and do something about it, though! :)</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>KJ</strong> - good grief!  You guys have GOT to be getting a good break soon.  Hope Emerson responds quickly to her meds and that Grayson continues to improve.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Phdac</strong> - federal investigation?  /raises an eyebrow.  :)</p>

<p>afternoon peeps!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>((((((((((((((KJ)))))))))))) and family...and congrats to Will!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jack...*snort*  Also...Dylan....HA!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I've heard from Torque...he's struggling but hanging in.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I took today off as a comp day, had grand plans to get all kinds of organizing done...but after such a hectic weekend, I have to admit, I've pretty much been watching HGTV for the last 2 hours. Heh.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It is snowing here, way more than I had heard we were supposed to get (actually, I'd only heard we were getting rain, so I'm totally surprised.) It hasn't let up at all, and there's at least 2-3" out there now.  Big giant fluffy snow.  I'm surrounded by napping pets at the moment.  Making it very hard to get started on that cleaning!</p>
