Power is back on as of yesterday sometime during the day (while we were all at work and school). Seems like when we lose it we lose it- off for 1 1/2 days. Thursday we got a foot of new snow- though its chilly it is going down fairly fast. So much for doing more raking this weekend.
Been spending too much money lately- had to lend myself some for my car payment today. Wish a little banking fairy would drop some cash into my checking account. Is my own fault- have been so good all winter needed a little spending to bring on spring. Time to put the breaks on again.
Think I should look into a second job this summer when school is out. Think I need shopping therapy- not to go shopping but to not go shopping again-ever.
Easter weekend. Not doing much- which is ok- the rest of my foam mounting material arrived yesterday so I should now be able to finish mounting my rubber stamps- am enjoying having them mounted and will be good to get them off the floor (my workspace) before Leo bites holes into the unmounted rubber- seems he likes rubber stamps too. Is like getting a whole bunch of new toys. Also Dave is working for the 13th or 14th day in a row, and tomorrow I think we will chill and watch movies that the Easter Bunny is bringing- one reason there's not much cash left in my checking account.
Have this hyacinth in my kitchen which is making my whole house smell like a garden. Strong...like it -seems like the garden has come inside.
Last night we went to the Monarch's hockey game in Manchester with some people from Dave's office. Was a fun night out- Katie came too, so it was nice to do something as a family. Dave took us to Fratello's for dinner first- had one of their yummy pizza's (Margarhita-spelling?) MMMM. The game was good too- though not really a Monarch's fan per se.
Oh by the way- Maine lost to Michigan State in the semi-finals. But BC beat North Dakota- may watch the game tonight just in hopes a Hockey East time can take it!!! BC is on such a role they well could. Too bad about Maine though.We still love our Black Bears.
Of course the game was funny in itself on Thursday since we had no power-figures- and I'm actually home as Katie and I both had snow days. So we go to my mother-in-law Barbara's house who had power- and she laughed at my shirt- and then I actually couldn't even make it to her house- got stuck 3/4 of a mile in (out of a mile) and she had to come an rescue us further back down the road- which was just a big mud/snow/pothole mess.
Oh well, luckily could get a quick shower and she made us dinner- which wouldn't happen at home with no power- came home at 8:30 to find Dave asleep on the couch and the house still black.
But power is back! (Worse part of Thursday- I'm home but my crafting was limited as it was dark in the corner where my table is- did a bit on the ironing board where the sun was coming in- but that's working on a wobbly table...
Happy easter- hope its spring like in the rest of the world.
