February Twenty Sixth

Cute-bear-9

We just finished having lasagna for dinner and are now watching Lost in Space Season one… Waiting to have a brownie for dessert… I had another bit of a lazy Saturday today… Well I did wash the bedding, towels and rest of the laundry… Battled ants in the boy’s bathroom and wiped down the boy’s bathroom… I started the taxes yesterday so had to order some ink for the printer today so when the taxes are done I can print them out… I also ordered me some pants for work… I got caught up on blog reading… posted photos on facebook and in my photo blog, Not Just Roses… I texted with son1 to let him know that some bills had came… he may stop by tomorrow to pick up his mail…

Son2 had a friend over today… They played the card game he got son2 last week at the bday party… Son3 spent the day playing Playstation 2… Hubby was playing video games too…

Hubby also made pancakes and fried eggs for breakfast… Our Saturday morning breakfast topic this morning was about son2 getting his driving permit… some of his friends are already driving, so we also talked to him about not getting in the car with them as they are not allowed to drive anyone in their cars under 18 until they are 18… son2 says he is fine about waiting to get his permit til he is 18… time for hubby to get a job and son2 to get a job and then we can get son2 a car to learn to drive in and get his license in…

We were supposed to have snow and rain today… but not a drop, here anyway, maybe in the foothills… It rained all day yesterday…and it is still cold today… warming up tomorrow and then maybe rain by Wednesday…

Off to work again tomorrow… I so need a vacation… I usually have one in January and then again for Easter… but Easter isn’t until the end of April this year… and then if I get the new position… how will I squeeze in vacation too… five weeks of them even… tomorrow I have a huge ad to set but have help… it’s mad about shoes sale time again…

The boys both have history homework this weekend… and son3 and I have reading to do… and hubby is going to the grocery store tomorrow… and we need to take a walk and feed the birds again, have some leftover popcorn from son2’s party last week still… I also need a haircut… I had so many things I was going to get done today…

Hubby has brought my brownie with ice cream…

Lent is coming soon… March 9th… I’m making a list of things to do and not do during lent… And we start daylight savings time March 13th…

Now we are watching the last disc of F Troop season one…

Still have CSI, the Mentalist and Fringe to watch from this week too…

Happy Journaling…

February Twenty Fourth

cute-bear

Aren’t these bears just too cute… I found a bunch of different ones going through Google images…

Another week of February almost done… Son3 has had a bunch of homework this week… especially writing as they are getting ready to take their state writing tests next week… we just finished writing four paragraphs about a genie granting three wishes… and yesterday we had to write three paragraphs on his favorite story out of his school reading book…

Son2 is home from tennis, they had their first scrimmage today… they went to a tie breaker but the other school won… he didn’t go to practice yesterday as he had gotten behind in homework… he still needs to finish writing his essay tonight on cruelty of animals…

Tomorrow will mark exactly two months since Christmas day and we are still crazy busy at work… they added associates to the schedule for the rest of the week so we can get cleaned up but then the weekend will come and it will just get tore up again… we are still putting away all the shoes that we opened from the trucks and are setting the woman’s floor with all the new spring shoes… today we had our weekly count and I think we have tons of mark downs again next week… it just never ends… I think they just finished the interviewing for the lead position today… now just waiting for them to make a decision… As far as most qualified that would be me… but a couple have potential… and a couple have either changed their minds or are just not qualified… so we’ll see…

It is so cold this winter or maybe it is just me… We have the heater set at 68 degrees but it is still chilly… I don’t remember past winters turning the heater up so not going to now as we want to keep the bills down… it is only going to be in the 40’s the next two days with rain and maybe even snow actually in the valley…

Waiting for the boys to get out of the showers… we’re having parmesan chicken and mashed potatoes for dinner… and watching Hogan’s Heroes… Big Bang, Rules of Engagement, CSI and The Mentalist come on tonight… I’ll be taping them as I was fast asleep last night at 8:30… can’t wait til we change the clocks and the sun is up longer… the sun is beginning to peek out just before 6am now and stay up til almost 6:30pm…

Will be good to come out of hibernation so I can quit eating and get more done around the house… I just want to sleep, watch TV and eat…

Speaking of which, time to eat dinner, so I can watch TV and go to sleep…

Happy Journaling…
