1-11-11 Snow Day Fun ..

A so needed day around here ..

It was so nice to have a day off when we were not expected someplace. Where we were not medicated. Where we had such pain sleeping was the only option. That we knew our surroundings and actually felt like we were part of the day. Not outsiders looking in. It was a good day.

There was breakfast served. Staying in pj's until noon. Watching TV and laughing at all the silly, silly people who were doing silly, silly, things in the horrible weather. Secrets told. Wishes made.

Cleaning sidewalks, driveway, and car. But doing so in an easy way seeing how I pre-treated and used all the helpful hints that were given a few weeks back on a show I was watching. That went off without a hitch. Helping neighbor duct tape nieces back window of her car so that it was protected by the weather a tad bit more.

There was hot tea served. Hamburgers made fresh, no drive-thru for us teen today. Pot pies burnt. Games of cards. Hide and seek. Getting stuck in a tight squeeze while hiding, and having to call for help. Snuggling up in electric blankets and watching movies from the library & catching up on DVR. Telling a very good friend good bye until Spring as he is off for cruises and spring training.

.....

Yes, it was a great day. I hope we have another day off soon. As it was the first time in almost a month (tomorrow) that the teen laughed. Laughed til he cried laughed.

Yes it is true 1-11-11 was the best day!!

No Monday Moan Here ..

So far this morning it has been a good Monday. Yeah it started out the same ol' same ol'. Teen wouldn't get up, it was still dark, etc .. etc .. But for the most part. Positive thinking ahead, it has been a good day so far.

After dropping of CD at school I went and walked 2 miles (woo hoo), came home did the dishes, and started laundry. Showered. (That in it's self is a mircle .. lol) So I am going with this will be a great day.

Keeping fingers crossed that Catcherdude has a good day today, and gets things in order. It has been a rough patch with school work. Why on earth anyone would do the work and then forget to turn it in?? Just baffles me. But we are working hard on remembering. Studying. Organizing. So here is the the power of positive thinking and all will be accomplished today. X (--) X <-- me with fingers crossed. LOL. I am hoping to get to go out today with my camera and do some more practice and test shooting. Last week I took 3 camera classes. I really picked up some helpful tips and ideas. Hopefully I will get some good pictures of baseball this season. I even got a new lens (50mm F 1.8) on Saturday. What I really .. really .. really want is this 135mm F1.8 but that $ will $ have $ to $ wait. But sure is sweet. I went to another teams game the other day. Here is a good shot of what a catcher should NOT do. LOL



Season opener is tomorrow. I can not wait!! But I am sure Catcherdude is more excited than I am. LOL

(pouting, because I will not drive him to the cages. LOL)

I am sure they will be back at school tomorrow. So a 3 day week isn't that bad. Especially for Catcher Dude as he only had a 3.5 day week last week, and a 3 day week this week. LOL. I can not believe it is almost February. January flew by!!
