The Grill Cover Wars

I let the dog out. I prepared the hair dye, "Nice and Easy" #130. What a joke, nice and easy. The dye is on, the dog is to quiet. I take a peek. I open the door, out I go with dye all over my head and no shoes, let alone no coat. The fight begins. She's got the grill cover and it is a tug of war that she is definitely winning. The cover is ripped, the ice is flying and so am I. I take a spin with my bare feet on the ice. Away she goes with the grill cover in mouth. I recover. (have I mentioned my back was killing me before this started?) Now away I go I get a piece of it, I get a little more, I win!!! She jumps and grabs the cover in her mouth. I loose my grip, ah but I regain control! The neighbors I am sure are hysterical as they peer out the window over this lastest fight. I put the cover very high, put bricks on it. I go in. Ah, but not for long as she has climbed up and has gotten the cover again. I heard the bricks fall. This time I put on shoes. Grill cover battle #2 has begun. People walking down the street turn Jersey's attention to them. I've got the cover and off to the shed. Now if she figures out how to get it out of there I quit! Times up I am taking the dye out, but she is quiet again. I'm not looking as with my luck my hair will fall out.

Not Rolaids

How do I spell relief? Taking the boobie holder off!

MOM HELP!!!!!!!!!

How many times have you heard it? MOM HELP!!! Of course your heart stops and you run. When my kids were little a scream like that meant blood usually. This morning the phone ran with a MOM HELP call from my 25 years old. "My car is stuck" Of course I ran. I was so happy for the call. It is nice to still be needed.

Nature in White

It snowed last night! Jersey had a glorious time at 4 this morning running around and eating it. To the right is the view out of my classroom. Only 8 rooms have this view and it is special. We see the deer, foxes, turkeys and nature. Very nice for the kids. It is raining now, but the weather man said more snow will come in a few days. Hopefully another delayed opening too!

A Great Day

Saturday was wonderful. The morning spent with the oldest daughter, the evening with the youngest daughter. What a glorious day. By the way, please don't blame us if a blizzard hits.

A New Day, A New Year!

2009 - So many changes are going to happen this year. So many happened last year too. What is the difference? I have a child getting married this year. That is huge! That is exciting! I have many more blood tests and treatments to get. That is scarey! I worry about everything and everyone. I must in this year have more faith. Is that possible? It has to be.

Headlights

Driving at night has always been something people complain about. It bothered me during rain. Now it bothers me more. Especially with all the new fangled headlights out there. I just wish that people would leave well enough alone sometimes.
