Today it's snowing

The second real snow of the winter season.

People drive like idiots and you would think they have never seen snow. They see it all the time. People seem to suddenly lose all track of reality when the it snows. They seem to do the same thing when it rains.

What the hell? I drove home in it. My boss tried to get everyone to leave early, so they wouldn't have to drive in the snow.

HELLO???? We have all lived here for years... We know what snow is. We are old enough to have driven in it for more years than we want to admit... Okay, whatever!

This just kinda drove me nuts today... sure, leave early to avoid the stupid snow-drivers and then be behind on Monday when I start the week. No one else seems to care... because I feel like I am the only one who is actually doing any work during the day! So, technically, I would be the only one who will start out behind.

Yes, it's been a long week, and a stressful week, and the snow and whining only put the icing on the cake!!!!

Bloggy Mom - Jan 20th Blog Dare Prompt

Friday January 20, 2012 -Something mischievous I did as a child.

Our home had a window-like opening between the kitchen sink and the livingroom. We always left the bamboo slide curtains open, so we could see through.

I think the most mischievous thing I did was when the candle on the counter was lit. I would use a piece of raw spaghetti (uncooked), put a mini marshmallow on it, and then roast it over the candle flame.

Desperation will make a 10-year old do anything!!!

Bloggy Moms 1.18.12 Prompt

Wednesday January 18, 2012

Something at home/work that serves no purpose.

{Probably shouldn't be your boss or spouse ;-) }

(How about a fellow co-worker???)

Probably the snowblower we own - it doesn't work and hasn't worked, so it's just taking up space in the garage.

Bloggy Moms Blog Prompt for 1.17.12

Tuesday January 17, 2012

The first time I saw...

I decided to take my son down to Great America. It was awesome. We went down when Tony Hawk was there. My son was a big skater follower, so that was ultimate for him. He got to meet Tony and shake his hand. That was the highlight of his day!!!
