So, they took Facebook and Myspace away from us at work…such sweethearts!!! I mean, we can’t even access those websites on our breaks or lunches…come on, man! I suppose there have been some people abusing our freedoms…because they are being snatched away from us like nobody’s business!!! Pretty soon I am afraid we are going to have to ask permission before we fart…you wait…it’s coming. You know, sitting in a cubicle day in and day out with no windows is SO boring…my one relief was to get on those websites and look at pictures, or chit chat with some folks. Now all I have left are blogs…until they find a way to block that too!
Enough whining about stupid things that don’t matter…
This weekend was BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!! The sun was shining…the sky was blue…it was 80 degrees with a slight breeze…you couldn’t ask for better weather! That’s just Alabama for you. One weekend we have 3 tornados touch down, and a snowstorm…the very next weekend it feels like summer time. I sure would hate to be a weatherman for this area…no one would ever trust what you had to say. But I absolutely love it. Well, I don’t always love the wild swings in weather…that’s how Cole and I end up with all sorts of funky respiratory issues…but I love that winter time is over at the beginning of March and won’t rear it’s ugly head again until October or November. In fact, Ronnie and I are considering a trip to the beach (Gulf Shores) this weekend coming up. I am keeping my eye on weather.com, they keep predicting rainstorms. But, I may be able to handle a little rain if the temps are in the mid-70’s! Anything to get away and go to the beach!!! I miss it! Our beach trip last year fell through at the last minute…gotta love those hurricanes…something about the electrical circuits in the cabins we had booked were messed up…people were getting electrocuted in the bathrooms…OUCH! The word so far is that they have gotten the issue fixed…so, it’s on like Donkey Kong!!!!!!!! (yeah, I said it!)
Mom is out in Utah right now visiting her Peeps…she wanted me to come with her, but, alas…I could not leave work for the billion days she would be out there. It would have been fun to take a long vacation and see my friends and family…I miss the days when I was working part-time and my paycheck was really just for fun…when I could just up and leave and not have to worry about who would pay the electric bill next month. We spend so much time wishing we were grown-ups…and then you get there…I WANNA BE A KID AGAIN!! Cole’s life rocks!!! I wish I had someone wiping my butt for me! I’ll have to talk to Ronnie about that one…hmmmmm…..
I know they are predicting rain for this weekend...in fact, weather.com is saying there is a 60% chance on Saturday...but we just CANNOT put off a beach trip any longer!!!!! It will still be warm...and I am confident that it will not rain every minute of the day. Plus, the hotel we are staying in has an indoor pool...so even if the weather is crappy, we will still manage to have a good time. It will be Cole's first visit to the beach...but it sure won't be his last. Ronnie and I are just beach bums at heart, and we will slide on down to the Gulf any time we get a chance. I am excited to just get away. We got someone to hang out at the house and take care of our mutts...now we can just hang out...lay low, like broccoli!
SNOW!!! In Alabama!!! The top picture was the view out our front window.
On top of my not-so-favorite weather...our heater went out...yeah. Fortunately, it is fixed now...the element broke and had to be replaced. Oh the joys of owning a home.
Cole didn't get to go outside (he was already sick...didn't need to aggravate any of that)...so he and Rico planted themselves in front of the big front window and watched it come down!
