ARGH!!
I missed my first day of blogging for the year yesterday. DRATS!! and DOUBLE DRATS!!
A combination of someone else using the computer and me going to the Fitness Connection and I spaced out blogging.
Oh well, day one of the new streak. I really don't have too much exciting going on. My new career as a LADC is going well. I enjoy my work and feel appreciated - which is really nice.

Good Supper
We enjoyed a nice basic meal tonight. I peeled up some carrots, potatoes and an onion and baked them in the over with some seasoning salt and butter. Then I fried up some thick pork chops in olive oil seasoned with Lowerys salt. Mmmmmm. I also made some lime Jello, which turned out to be a light dessert. Sometimes the simple things in life are the most satisfying.

movie night
No time for blogging, it is movie night with the family. We wanted to watch 2012, but the stinkin' DVD wouldn't work in any of the players - almost seems like the move was never burned to the disc. Plenty of others to choose from, not sure what we'll watch yet.

Great Family
Just a quick note to say how proud I am of my family.
Sharon, you are AWESOME (yes, like Bolt).
Zach and Jess - shocked and pleased that Zach is actually reading a book.....just for fun. Jess, happy for your new job!
Alex - way cool that you got such an uplifting comment from your professor. Knew you could do it all along.
Nick - last basketball game tomorrow night. Proud of all the hard work you've put in. You know you can hold your head high!

evil people
People who create computer viruses are just plain evil. I hope the fleas of a 1000 camels invest their armpits (my G'ma said that once).
My home computer has been hit with a different virus four days in a row now. I'm guess the first one started a chain reaction. The last one is the worst so far. The others I could run Maleware and "clean" them out, but this one won't even let me start the program. The virus is Antivirus Soft. I'm going to have to take the CPU in and have it cleaned professionally. Freakin' jerks who make these viruses!!!
Also - freakin' Symantec Antivirus won't even recognize the virus. I was able to run a scan and it reported no concerns. Really? Then why do I have ten thousand popups telling me I have viruses and to download their program along without being able to run anything else?
Can you tell I am less than pleased?

Old and Crabby or Wiser With Age?
I just got done doing the dishes. I HATE doing the dishes. I have dishpan hands and a backache!
The ground is still covered with snow and it is still below freezing outside. I HATE cold, ice, snow, etc.!
So, the question is: Am I getting old and cranky or wiser with age?
We've lived in the same house for about 14 years - in all that time we've never had a dishwashing machine. So why does washing the dishes seem so much more horrible now than it did 12, 13 or 14 years ago?
Each winter I seem to become less and less tolerant of the wintery conditions. I've lived in Minnesota for the majority of my life. Why do the winters make me so unhappy these days? It has gotten so bad that I don't even want to leave the house on the weekends - don't want to go out into the cold. I've got friends and relatives saying, "oh, it is so nice outside today." and all I want to do is smack them upside the head and remind them that 33 degrees is colder than the inside of their refrigerator - you don't see me smiling and sitting in there do you?!?
Grrrrrr. When it gets above 6o I'll start agreeing that it is a "nice" day. Until then....Grrrrrrrr.

Iceing my Groin
That just doesn't sound very fun. I was talking with my son who this past weekend placed 3rd in the longjump at the UMAC Indoor Track and Field Championships. He had the injury before jumping and said it was very painful during the competition. I can't imagine jumping 21 feet without an injured groin. His personal best is 22 feet 8 1/2 inches. Hoping for 23+ as the season progresses.
