I just have to say it…

It’s HOOOOOOOOT in Toepeeeeeeekaaaaaa! (It was 85 at 5:00 according to my van.)

Weather

It’s snowing. I say that with mixed feelings. I like looking at snow. I hate driving in snow. And I’m afraid it isn’t going to be cleared up by Monday. I know that is a long shot but I really want to make it to Nebraska for Christmas and I REALLY want to leave my kids there for a week. If it is all snowy and crappy then I don’t know what we will do.

Really, Mother Nature!! Please!!!

Not only do we get another blizzard, our basement flooded first!!!! For the first time in nearly 2 years we have 1/2 inch of water in one room and it is leaking into other rooms. It appears to be coming in at the floor simply due to the oversaturated ground. But this time something new happened….it came in at the storage room too. Thank god we got our carpet in in the last month. It has been sitting downstairs for nearly a year and the same month we get it in that room starts leaking water. The carpet pieces that are down there are probably ruined….along with all my extra pad (at least the stuff not in plastic). There is water all around the stuff from Bailey’s room but luckily it is all in totes. At this point I think the leftover carpet is all the has been ruined…but I’m not counting my chickens just yet.

For goodness sakes!!!! Enough already!!!!

NO MORE SNOW!!!!! I don’t want to hear about another blizzard!!!!!!

I want to live somewhere that doesn’t have this crap!!!!

Le sigh….

I feel like the Jaws music should be playing in the background all over central Nebraska today….mixed with Jingle Bells. The looming idea of being snowed and iced in tomorrow just makes me irritated….not that I would mind being home again….but I would be stuck there with both the kids….and Michael hasn’t been that fun to be around since he got grounded from video games and computers.

I was sick this weekend. I had the UTI from hell. Ok, I actually had that when I was a child and this wasn’t quite as bad (at least I didn’t end up in the hospital this time). I did end up going to the ER on Sunday night so they could get the antibiotics started because I couldn’t bare it any longer. I would go into details but that definately would be TMI.

Gave in and started playing Final Fantasy XII this weekend also. Not too bad of a game. Rather addicting…I’m not so much sucked in by the story rather I’m fascinated by the gameplay. Very unique new battle system. So anyway, I have a new addiction to keep me busy until school starts….like I really needed that.

Speaking of addictions, the Flash programs for the niece and nephew are almost done. I need to do some more recording of instructions and such but otherwise it is good to go. I need to make one for Bailey now.

I’m really tired still today…and I feel like my head is floating in space….so I’ll go back to floating now….
