See if I can't get the right year on my blog title. We got snow today, husband came and picked me up from work. Left my car at work, hope the wheels are still on in the morning. The main roads are slick, they said the interstate is really slick. I might get a snow day tommorrow, maybe not.

I survied another weekend attending a chiropractic seminar. I wish I could use that stuff for my mary kay business, I guess I could, I should try for the 5 year plan. The meetings are not bad, its the staff meeting we have when we get back, Doc wants to know what kind of notes we got and I am not good at taking notes. So I get stressed out, today was not too bad though. This guy Keith Maul is a good speaker, he travels all over the United States doing Chiropractic Seminar.
I have enjoyed my afternoon off, I made cookies and am baking a loaf of bread for toast. Have my chicken soaking in some salt water, fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy for supper. I have some squash in the fridg, I will steam it or stir fry. Not sure.

They are getting ready to start messing things up. They are going to widen our road, they are taking it from our side. It is going to be so messy when it rains and stuff. There were will be a lot more traffic, I think I want to move.

Its raining again, I don't mind the rain most of the time, it sure messes up my sewer. Its annoying when you can't take a dump in your own home, you have to go else where. I guess I shouldn't complain, some people are getting water in their homes. They talk like we may have ice tomorrow. There should be something we can do about it though. My husband is bored, he can't get outside and do anything, so he decided to take a nap. The ground is soaked. They have about 2 inches of ice in Oklahoma.
I have cleaned and done some laundry. Clean sheets back on the bed, thinking about what I can have for supper. Even Miss Kitty is restless.
I think a trip to Wal-Mart is a good idea, get me out for a while. I still have to make those snacks I wanted to make. (Apricot-Walnut Cereal Bars)

Did not get much done yesterday, I need to do a lot today, have to go back to work tomorrow. I have so much stuff. I need a storeage building for my stuff. We have two, husband has them all full of his stuff.The back bedroom is still piled up and down the hall way. This room has little piles all over the place that I haven't decided what to do with. I have to go pay for the rest of the work I had done and talk about them paying for my dishwasher that tore up when they moved it out. It was working before, I have never had to deal with this problem before.
I counted all my loose change last night, I have $80.00 to take to OK next weekend. Better get off here I have stuff to do today.

Wow! Another year gone by, what have I accomplished this past year, I don't really know. The year ended with me on vacation, getting some new flooring put in. I put this off for two years, because I have lived in this house for 35 years come April. I never throw anything away, I used to fuss at my mom, now I am just as bad as she was. Darn I wish she was still here, I still miss her. We had to though, we were tripping over the seams that were coming apart, some of it had waves. I still liked the carpet color, but refused to shampoo, since it was coming apart. We put down laminate flooring in the kitchen and dining room, I love it. I just hope we don't ruin it. We are so messy. I hate housework, but I love a clean house. I am going to do better this year, I swear.
Husband and Miss Kitty are playing chase, I have already chased her around the house this morning. She me woked up hitting the mini blinds in the living room, she thought it was time for us to get up. I was trying to sleep in, not with her around. I am usually up around 6:00 during the week when I work so she is use to that schedule, just because its a holiday, her clock doesn't change. I guess she is our baby now, that our kids have grown up. Sometimes I wish my girls were still little and the grandsons were still little, but then I wouldn't have great grandchildren.
Husband and I are thinking about going to Oklahoma to play slots today, sounds like fun, not sure I want to go though. I don't have much money saved up, I was saving up for Nashville, not that I need that much money, just for my food and drinks. The room will be free, I am so excited.
Back to these accomplishments for 06, I am still working and hope to keep working atleast till pay off my flooring. We took out a personal loan to get the flooring, it will take two years to pay it off. We don't have a lot of bills, I have credit cards, I have one I let get out of control, not sure how that happened, so I am working on that. Husband does not like credit cards, his motto is if you can't pay for it you don't need it. I think he is right, but I have no self control, yes I do, I have stopped charging on that card.
Better go, we are going to Oklahoma! I hope to win some money.
