We finally got the furnace fixed. I know its an old one and all but I don't thing we can afford to replace anytime soon. Hopefully (crosses fingers), we can eek out a bit more time with this one.

The weekend wasn't too bad. We did get out and buy some firewood Saturday so we could have fires over the weekend. I got some virus thing Saturday and I've haven't been feeling so well the past couple days. At first I thought I had the flu, but I don't think so. It could have been something I ate, but not sure.

Went to the dentist appointment which lasted a little longer then expected. And then came back to a cold house. The blower on the furnace went out, the burners still work so we get a tiny bit of heat just because heat rises.

The guy from the third company we called said he couldn't fix it until Monday. So its going to be a long cold weekend.

Mom took yesterday off, so we got a few things done while we had the time.

Wednesday we got to see a bit of the lunar eclipse, then the clouds moved in. But what we did see was great. The next one isn't for another two years.

There is another threat of winter weather for Thursday and Friday. And I dont think anyone is looking forward to it. Sunday I woke up to snow, this is after the rain we got Saturday afternoon. It got warm enough to melt much of the wet snow off. But we had already gone out in the wretched stuff to get things at the store.

I am already sick of the political stuff. Wish it didnt go on nearly as long as it does. None of the canidates are really worth a dime, but I will need to vote for someone. And I dont think I can vote for Peter Griffith or Homer Simpson.

We came tight home after Mom's appointment and the mail hadnt arrived, thankfully. Instead of going out and doing the errands we had, she worked on her taxes. She got the bulk of the work done. All she needs to do is just put it in pen and send it off.

The photos did come in the mail yesterday and they look wonderful. We got enlargements of some of our Paris pics and some prints of things we didnt already have. They all look very nice.

My dentist appointmen, to take care of a couple cavities, is on Saturday. We will do some errnads after we get done.

I am not usually the one to complain to much about winter and the weather we have with it. But I am so sick of winter now. I am not looking forward to summer, but I am tired of dealiwng with the ice, rain, snow and nasty crap. Hope I remember how I feel when the temps are in the nineties. I probably wont, but its the thought that counts.

Mom has a dentist appointment Saturday. We are still waiting for some photos we ordered over the weekend to arrive. I just hope the mail doesnt arrive while we are out and we have to go to the post office to pick them up.

Took the dogs to the vet today. It was its usual fun and games. The vet didnt call us like she said she might if thy dogs heartworm test turned up. So the dogs are healthy and have all the required tests. Dont have to do this whole thing again until next year, thank God.

Havent had a desire to go to a movie yet. Not sure when or if there will be a movie interesting enough to actually make a trip to the theaters worth it.
