Hi Everybody!

One more day of training and have to be there at 6:30am for a "kick off" meetiing at a conference center for the 2010 events. :)

We get to leave at 4pm tomorrow then I'll be on the road and heading home to DH, DS's and kitty cats.

Holly,

I love your new kitty and she looks extremely happy. :D

Sarah, Tell Maddie I said MEOW back to her. :D

I hope everyone will have a great Friday and thanks for all the kind replies.

I know I look tired (and OLD, honestly... :rolleyes:) but I'm very optimistic about this job and feel very fortunate. :)

She is so adorable! :) Thanks for sharing her picture.

Been awake since 4:00 a.m., and now I have to go to school. It is 11 degrees here, with a wind chill of -2. I am so glad that it is Friday.

Wiz -- You have a great attitude about your new job. I think I need an attitude adjustment!:rolleyes:

Morning all. Just hanging on by a thread around these parts. LOL Laundry again and some cleaning. Other than that, not much. It's too cold to get out. Even with the weather being cold we are blessed not to be going through that horrible storm going through the south. I read north Texas got 8 inches! What?

Have a good day everyone. Wiz, so glad your coming home and your training is finally over. :hug:

It's so cloudy here.....thick gray clouds that look like they are FULL of snow. Tonight and tomorrow will be when we're supposed to get whatever we're in for. Hoping the bad stuff stays north of us. I'm right on the edge of the line they've set for who gets ice/snow and who gets freezing rain.

I got groceries yesterday so I'm set for whatever happens. As long as the power doesn't go out.....

Has anyone heard from Becky? She's in Oklahoma and it looked like they got slammed. Hope she's okay.

Not doing much today. I got alot of my chores done yesterday......big stuff like dusting and running the vacuum all over the hardwoods to get the dust "bunnies" and cat hair "tumbleweed" that blows around! :o I'm amazed that Gracie isn't bald by now.....I found enough of her cat hair to cover another cat!

Everyone stay safe wherever you are......Winter is just settling in it seems. Have a good Friday! :grouphug:

My brother made a joke the other day that the movie 2012 was coming true! LOL He's in Tulsa and iced over but they managed to dodge the worst of it which hit more south. Everything is shut down. Oklahoma City where Becky is was hit hard. I doubt she'll be able to get online for a bit but you never know.

Ok all you northerner's I have a questions for you. Can you smell snow? I made that comment to DBF last week end and he has been giving me such a hard time about it all week long. I had to rephrase it that you can smell snow in the air, just like the smell of rain in the desert. He still is giving me a hard time. So, can you smell it in the air?

Kelly - I am waiting for my vacuum to cough up a hairball. LOL Tux's hair is everywhere.

Wiz - Glad training is over for you and hope you have a safe trip home.:hug:

Hi everyone else! Just doing a quick check in here as I have lots of dictation to do. Concentration was getting fuzzy so I'm taking a quick break.

Have a great day everyone!:hug:

I dont know if I can smell snow Tricia but you can definately feel it in the air before it
actually snows!

I can smell the cold coming for sure! When the snow is coming it gets really still outside too.

So there is a distinct smell when it snows or is going to snow. It snowed last weekend and I could smell that in the air. The smell is locked in to my memory bank from my childhood. Maybe it is the cold, crispness of the air? Cold moisture? I have to figure this out before I go over to his house so I can state my case. LOL. He keeps laughing about it. :rolleyes:

Sandy - I love that stillness right before it snows and definitely afterwards. There is something so calming about it as well as the colors after it snows. Love it and miss it.
