Rainy Days and Sundays

Nothing exciting going on in our house today. Well, we did win $7 in the Powerball

drawing last night. Since I spent $5 on the tickets, we made a big $2!!! WHOOPIE!

Kaitlin and I did some Walmart shopping today, much as I hate to go there. She needed some jeans for work, and believe it or not, she'll wear their $16/pair jeans. We raised our kids to believe that you don't have to wear name brand clothes to be cool. Now, they don't wear crap, but they're okay with Target, Kohl's and Walmart clothes. Kaitlin wear her Rascal Flatts t-shirts (she has 11) most of the time anyway - HA! She has to wear shirts with collars to work, so she has an array of polo shirts, but other than that, she's a country girl! Probably why she bought that big ol' truck!

Corby finally got Kaleb's car running again today. We took it on a test drive to Newton. Thank goodness we went before the storms hit!

Other than that it was pay bills, laundry and cleaning house! UGH!

Today's music: Rascal Flatts new CD - Still Feels Good.

Kaitlin picked the CD for our driving today. Big surprise that she chose Rascal (NOT!!!!)

And the quote for the day is from Ralph Waldo Emerson: "To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."

Please

I know there are folks out there who read my blog, at least once in a while. Would you please do me a favor? Would you make a comment every now and then? It's easy...just click on comment, and if you don't have any of the accounts set up that are listed, you can post as "anonymous". Just identify yourself in the comment. I'd like to know how many people out there are actually reading my blog, albeit occasionally. THANKS!

VACATION

On vacation for a few days (return to work on Thursday)...here's where I wish I was... I plan on enjoying some peace and quiet...and possibly, if I get motivated, getting some cleaning and organizing done in the office area of the basement. We'll see if that motivation arrives (it's not here yet)... Good news for Park City residents...recycling came to town the first of January. We are charged $4.00 month (added onto our already high water bill); but it has lowered the price of our trash pickup. The company P.C. contracted with has a much lower price than the company we use. Our company matched the price, so our trash bills went down (considerably) AND we get to recycle. We can recycle almost all our plastics, newspapers, cardboard, aluminum cans, cereal boxes, glass, motor oil, etc. We've got two big bags to set out tomorrow. Just doin' our part for the environment. We are without hot water right now...our hot water heater needs a new thermo-couple? It's a fair

Isn't This Gross?

Corby lets Muffin drink out of his milk glass. Isn't that disgusting? I love animals, but I sure don't share my drinks with them. YUCK! Brandon will be home tomorrow - on his 19th birthday! His last final is at 12:30. Corby & Kaleb are headed up to help him bring his stuff home. I was planning on going, but because Hope is out on medical leave, I can't take off. That's okay - I really wasn't looking forward to carrying his stuff down 7 flights of stairs! YIPPEE - MY BABY IS COMING HOME FOR THE SUMMER! Does anyone else out there love "House Hunters" - the show on HGTV? For some reason, that show grabs me. I like to see the 3 houses the couples (sometimes singles) choose from. Of course, most of them have a lot more money than we do! Saw one last night that was a young couple in Chicago - lived in the inner city, but with 2 kids decided to move to the suburbs. Their goal was to find a house for under $1,000,000. That a million dollars folks! How can peop
