howdy all .. sorry it took so long to get back ...

we got another 4 inches of snow on Friday ... and Saturday was full of taxes and going to Italy, England and Greece ... very therapeutic when working!!

I have 3 more returns to go and I get the last one tomorrow and will work on all of them tomorrow ..

applied for a part-time job ... 9-4, 6.5 hrs/.5 hr lunch .. only 15-20 minutes from home .. not sure of the pay or if I'll get it ... not sure I want it ... but I need $$ so I can work with the mobile home people to see if I can get a new/newer home ...

our lake is still frozen ... don't believe all you hear on TV about the flooding ... we NEEDED the snow and rain ... the farmers are loving it .. but I'm ready for spring ...

saw my tulips coming up .. only about 3 inches high ...

well, I'm tired .. thanks for the thoughts ... will post an update when I find out more ..

Vonn, I knew you would dig thru the snow and find the puter...heheheeh hugssss good luck if you want that job..hugsssss

Frank sorry you feeling like mashed potato...cogfog hits me hard at times too...sometimes I wonder how I will do the work of being the boss...(my hubby teases me...hey you cant remember your phone number at times...how you gonna be the boss...) we just tease thru things....a lot...

Cayo, sorry you had cold eggs....cool he was cooking...yeahhhhh and hope you feeling better in the yoohooo...or whatever you called it hehee

oval track, my fine, fat, and fair fanny!

the main highway here is majorly potholed and has no marking stripes, it's narrow and curvy and visibility is poor, due to encroaching jungle...



and the side roads aren't paved at all!

Good morning all. It's cold this morning, but the sun is shining. Hoping this coffee kicks in soon, lol.

Frank, I think we all become contemplative sometimes. Or as my hubby jokes, we have "doh!" moments. I've had a few of those. It's like a small light bulb shining through the cog fog.

Vonn, Hope the part time gig works out for ya.

Sarah, I think you'll be fine at your new job.

Kay, wow. reading about the roads makes me really glad you guys made it home in one piece. I thought the twisting roads through the appalachain mountains were bad, lol.

it's the absence of any yellow or white stripes that made the driving so difficult...

curves I'm used to - being from the Sierra Nevadas, near Yosemite in California.

I used to drive like Mario Andretti...

Renee - What wonderful news. I am so glad your hubby is doing better and home. I am sure that makes you feel better as well.

Too much to remember to respond to everyone. I hope you are all doing fine.

We got back a few hours ago. DBF skunked me. This was the 1st time ever. The score was 5 to 1. (Keep in mind, fishing is more difficult here than most places.) I had him take a picture with my camera of the 1 fish I caught and he didn't hit save!!! LOL. I was not going to take any pictures of him catching fish because no one would believe it and it would be the great story of the "big fish that got away." I broke down and ended up taking some pics this morning. LOL.

All in all it was a very relaxing weekend. There were a lot of campers but they all left yesterday so it was nice and quite today. The deer came down off the mountains and it was awesome to watch them. I almost forgot to pay attention to my pole. LOL. Jackrabbits were out running around as well. We also saw a bald headed eagle and a bobcat. It was great.

Have a great evening everyone.

Renne, Hope your hubbie is recuperating and that you are also doing ok

Tk -- Sounds like you had a good weekend. I am happy you were able to enjoy yourself despite the hug. Do you eat the fish you catch or let them go?

My oney news is that I have an appointment this Friday at the ms center at Barnes hospital in St. Louis. They had a cancellation so I snatched it up. Otherwise I would have had to wait until June. It is about a 2 1/2 hour drive so I will have to leave around 6 in the morning. Ugh!

TK glad you all had a wonderful time and are home safe and sound

Barb glad u were able to get in sooner, thats always nice to get that type of break, especially if yours can be har to get an appt with.

Fin Sandy Jim Cayo sarah sharon vonn and if i slipped up and misssed anyone howdy howdy howdy

TK, glad you had fun camping. Sounds like it was a blast.

Barb, great news about snatching up the appointment. Hope it goes well.

Frank, and a howdy back to you too.

Renee, hope things are continuing to improve with your hubby.

The sun is shining this morning, the last day of my vacation. A little lumpy and sore this morning, but happy because I got some stuff done this past week.

Have to make a swing by the accountant today to get our tax stuff. It was e-filed, but they still want the stuff mailed in today. The joy of taxes. Usually we're earlier with it, but time seems to be flying by these days.

Hope everyone has a great day.

Hubby is doing as well as to be expected overdid it yesterday and paid for it...we sat around last night and wathed Alvin and the Chipmunks with my mom our kids and 7 of the neighborhood kids! it was cute though and the kids were all good. I have been exhausted and got a stomach virus to boot...then hubby has taken over my side of the bed because it is easier for him but I ain't gettin no sleep!! LOL

Hope everyone is well love you all......didn't Vonn have a big surprise?? Did I miss it?
