I had really hoped to wake up and find myself snowed in this morning, but no such luck.

The rain has forced cancellation of knitting tonight.  It’s only a matter of time before it turns to ice and then snow.

The pressure is building!  I still haven’t bought Avery’s 2nd birthday stock.  I’ve been foiled on my first two choices.  None of the cottage cheese makers is public, and I guess that’s OK since she seems to be over cottage cheese.  Mars, the makers of her beloved M&Ms, is privately held.  Another choice would be a diaper manufacturer, since I’m guessing that’s where most of Avery’s consumer dollars went in her second year.  More of the well performing Fisher Price/Mattel is under consideration as well.

I wore my snow pants to church this morning and while it seemed like inappropriate attire, at least I made it, which is more than I can say for 80% of the people who usually attend.  I had a nice nap on the couch while MrB roasted chickens and shoveled snow.  Knit.  Watched a bit of golf on TV.

I get some really weird trackbacks here. * Wow!  It’s been a long time since I was the one to lock up the office at the end of the day.

I did it!  I bought some Caribou stock. * Mr.B is going to be a GrandPa!  * Rebecca of wedding photographs fame stopped by for a glass of wine and a bit of catching up.

Mr.B and I took a “Quiet Your Mind” class at my gym.  Part TaiChi, part meditation.  In the warm candle lit therapy pool with live flute music.  It was lovely.  Did I tell you how I kicked his butt at Scrabble this past weekend?

I find it humorous the AntiSpam software Rent-A-Geek installed on our server filters out their very own invoices and statements as spam.  * As of today I’m going to keep the entire day in one box.  Not only might it make things easier for those of you who just can’t get with the new program here, but it eliminates my having to come up with a title for each entry.

Yoga

by Matilda on 02.17.07 at 11:59 PM See more in Life

Mr.B and I took a Partner Yoga class at my gym.  A pleasant way to connect on a Saturday afternoon.  Followed by a burger at Snuffy’s, a place I remember fondly from when the boys were young.

Three Hundred Twenty Days Until Christmas!

by Matilda on 02.14.07 at 12:58 PM See more in Life

I started my Christmas 2007 shopping today with a bargain I just couldn’t pass up.  The trick will be to remember where I’ve stashed it.

Suntan Soon!

by Matilda on 02.12.07 at 12:17 PM See more in Life

I never took a vacation this winter.  You can tell by the paleness of my skin.  The pale is really getting on my nerves.  My Doctors at Mayo have me terrified of a tanning bed.  Today I ordered a propane heater for my deck.  That should make suntan season come sooner to my house.  I can’t wait!

Weekend WrapUp

by Matilda on 02.11.07 at 07:32 PM See more in Life

Saturday:  Mr.B was busy with the screwdriver; the dining room chairs, crib, shower.  We made two huge pots of beef stroganoff.  Sunday:  Church.  Walk.  Hot coco while roasting chocolate marshmallows.  Chess; I lost both games.

I went to church this morning.  Yeah, that one on the front page of today’s newspaper.

Sick Day

by Matilda on 02.09.07 at 11:25 AM See more in Life

Avery is home sick today.  I had brought home some work from the office that I’ll do between loads of laundry.  Perhaps a bit of knitting.
