    The Perfect Valentine

    Oh boy Valentine’s Day is only 4 days away. I’d better get started on picking out the perfect cards (one serious and 1 funny) for the DH. I love this skit from Kevin James. I think he’s got me pegged. Total LOL!

    Good luck finding your perfect Valentine.

    He’s up… He’s down

    What’s Jack up to? Sorry it’s been a long while since I’ve given an update but things have been pretty quiet on the Jack front.

    I guess that’s due to the fact that this has been the stormiest winter ever. Poor Jack has been mostly stuck inside with doing nothing much but turning into a little Cousin It and growing his hair way too long. Is there a dog under there?

     

    I had to do and ultra close up just to get a pic of his sweet eyes. See. Coming in close. ..

     

    Lately his favorite game is going on the couch where I don’t want him and jumping down with a loud thump when he hears me coming around the corner. Yeah, we do that quite a lot. It gets us through the day. It’s the little things.

    So what have you been up to to keep you entertained this Winter?

    Oh yeah!

    School is in session today. Whew! Looks like nobody will get hurt and I may hold on to that last shred of sanity… for now.

    I hope things are getting back to normal where you are.

    The Ice Storm Cometh

    So we’ve had an ice storm and yes, another school closing. At the first word of an ice storm of course my mind instantly goes to this.

    Yeah I think in movies, tv and music. And though I didn’t love this movie when I first saw it years ago. I find the more I think of it the more I think it’s brilliant, if not for Joan Allen’s hair alone.

    But I digress, the kids are home again, giving me the side eye like they’re wondering why I’m on the computer all day and not being miss happy mommy homemaker and pulling magic birds out of my butt or at the very least getting out there on the icy roads and taking them to the mall. As if.

    Hey, they should be used to it by now . This is just another day mid-week in a little house in the middle of the street in Freshchester.

    This is not a Musical

    So it’s yet another weather related No School day today. Yeah, you can imagine how my kids are feeling.

     

    Me? No so much. Stay warm and safe where you are. 

    Have a good one.

    Just One of Dem Days

    This is a late post for me guess it’s just one of those days which is what I told the DD when she asked how the day went. She tried to glamorize it in song with all sorts of angst and the sultry tones of Monica singing but I told her sadly, it wasn’t as deep as all that. It was yeah, just one of those days where the hours weren’t long enough and I felt I hadn’t gotten enough done but a few lines of writing, some freelance work and a bonus load of laundry.  Yay, the glam life of a writer and stay at home mom.

    But to make her happy, hey, I’ll play the song. Props to her for knowing it from 1995.

    Happy Weekend!

    Is This Getting Boring?

    What’s Jack up to? Poor thing buried is in snow. Well don’t feel bad for him feel bad for me and the DH doing the digging.

     

     

    I had to get the heating pad last night for my back and then we got over a foot more snow over night.  But, Spring is coming we know it right, Jack?

     

    Have a great one!
