We got some snow in a lovely storm. It started with rain last night. Mom had Friday off and we went to the laundromat. She had some winter clothes that needed a good washing. And then it started snowing today. We got at least an inch. And we we even ventured out for some dinner. It wasn't to bad gettting out since it was mostly slush on the roads.

We got about three quarters of an inch of rain last night. There had been a forecast of rain for several days, but we finally got some. Will put off doing laundry till later in the week.

Sunday and all of Monday had been very windy. It is now officially Spring. Flowers are blooming, grass is greening up and trees are beginning bud out if they haven't already.

We finally got the painting done today. But the room looks wonderful. Hopefully it will be a long while before we need to paint in here again.

Last night after we finished for the day, we went out for some dinner and to buy some books. Even though I was tired from all the stuff we did, I still had a nice time.

Failed to mention Natasha Richardson passed away from injuries due to a skiing accident. I liked her and she wasn't that much older then me.

We started painting the living room yesterday but had to stop. Mom had a headache and the fumes got to both of us. We have enough ventilation but for whatever reason we both got a little sick. That and a bit tired from moving stuff around.

Need to go out and get a quart of paint for a small section of the living room we forgot about. Might look at paint chips for the kitchen.

Quite warm today. Got to the lower eighties. By far the warmest day of the year.

Purchased some paint at the hardware store Saturday. We got paint for the living room and Mom's bedroom. Mom is taking off Friday and we will be painting the living room then. Will wait to paint her bedroom, but at least we have the paint for it.

Some of our daffodils have bloomed and others look like they will soon.

We are going to the Nelson today. Not sure what else we will do, if anything.

The weather has been pretty nice lately.

We got an inch of rain Monday evening. So probably cant do a load of laundry until lter in the week unless it rains again.

Saw some deer in our neighbors yard again. When Mom picked me up to run an errand last night, we saw deer in someones yard.

It is supposed to be cool for the next few days. Then it its going to get a little warmer.

Sergei has decided he doesn't like some of the food hes been eating fine for some time. We had good luck with him over the winter. He always ate well and now his old picky self is rearing its head. Almost have to coax him to eat.

I was wrong about the rain total. We got the two and a quarter inches of rain.

The time change was this weekend. It will take a while to get used to. Keep wanting to stay in bed.

Have been typing up some recipes I got out of some women's magazines. Tried a new recipe on Thursday and it is a keeper. I always tinker with recipes I get, either halving the amounts or fiddling with the spices. Have not had a failure with the recipes yet.

We got a lot of rain over night. Was surprised (and I am joking) that the dogs didn't float away with the amount of rain we got. Dont know the total yet, but I would guess we got at least an inch.

It looks like it might rain a time or too later in the week. I just hope I can get at least one load of my own laundry done this week.

Did a load of laundry for Mom yesterday. She need somethings done or else she was going to have to go commando and neither of of wants to do that.

Yesterday it got to 82 degrees. The warmest it has been so far this year. It was so odd to have it that warm. Today is going to be about ten degrees cooler. Snow is pretty much gone.

Tuesday, March 03, 2009

Will do a load of my laundry today and later in the week do a load for my Mom.

Had a headache yesterday. Warmer weather is coming in. The snow will be gone by Friday if not sooner.

We have snow! About four inches of it. It wasn't too bad getting out and about in it yesterday. Came close to canceling my dentist appointment because of the weather. Happy I didn't because its done. The traffic near Bartle Hall was bad. Dont know what was going on, but it was idiots galore.
