So Jen and I both have the day off today and it feels great. Jen and I both slept in and woke up to falling snow and you know what we didn’t care.
We instead all piled inot the bed and had Lucy join us too, then we just talked about what we were going to do today, and about how excited we were with the upcoming holidays. We had a nice warm breakast, then we went outside for a snow ball fight and to shovel the driveway. Lucy would run after the snowballs then tried to eat then. There was a moment in it all when I stoped and thought to myself life is good, and I am very lucky to live the life I have.
Tonight Jen and I are having a dinner party. Norm’s b-day was on Monday and so we are having him over for dinner, along with Connie, and my parents. Baked ziti, tossed salad, and angel food cake with a mix of different berries will be served and I can not wait because my stomach is startng to rumble.
Maybe some uno, then its back to reality that all days can not be perfect day because we have to go back to work tomorrow.
Until tomorrow let it snow, since we have no place to go !
Love to all who enter here…

Two more days and its my birthday month ! I can’t wait. Jenn has two surprises, and no matter what I say or how I threaten to torture her she will not tell me anything. Damn !
This weekend was eventful or uneventful depending on how you look at it. We are picking up hours at Ed’s while Joel is away, so Friday was spent at Ed’s Jenn and I watched a movie, and spent time with the dogs. Saturday morning we had some fruit and toast, then walked to Max’s parade. While we were in town we grabbed some coffee. I love Brockport’s own java junction. The parade was nice. Saw some people I knew, and neighbors. After the parade we walked the canal with the dogs. I love the new bick path they put in the year before last. Truly in the last couple of years I have opened my eyes to all of the good things anout living in a small town. I appreciate everything this town has to offer. The cute shops, the festivals, and all the other things that are organized during the holdays. It is a nice feeling. Plus Jenn and I have gotten to know some of our neighbors, so that feel good spirit is there too. Matty loves that he lives near two of his friends he has made from story time, and that has helped him transition. Oh about Matty (as he would like to be called ) instead of Matao. I called him that one night and he said I want to be called that by you and Mommy two. So it stuck, and it continues to catch on. Anyways … we have yet to hear from our social worker about the family member that wanted him. so we continue to wait and hope for the best.
So to continue this weekends wrap up. Saturday night my parents watched Matty and Jenn and I went out to dinner and shopping for some spring/ summer clothes. We got some good deals and some really nice clothes. When we got home we played with the dogs, and put Matty to sleep, and our night night time followed shortly after. Sunday we had breakfast in bed, did some yard work, picked up some groceries, and had Temoc and Xochitl over to play with Matty. They all wanted pizza so we ordered veggie pizzas and enjoyed being with them
Today back to grinding for the bills !!!

Imagine if you will having the next 6 days off from work. Well that is what I am going to have off. I can’t wait. I bought some frames the other day and after painting my hallway about a month ago I will complete the makeover by finding the perfect place for these frames. I will alos have plenty of time to workout, try new recipes, read and watch some movies I have been wanting to watch. Jenn has three of the six days off and we already vowed one of those days will be spent in pj’s . Everything else in our lives is going well, foster care has been slow we had a 6 year old stay with us for a week while a family member was contacted. Next week we will have a 7 year old stay with us long term at least 5 months. So we take it day by day. We had a b-day party for Joel yesturday, good food, family, friends, who could ask for more. Happy b-day Joel ! The house is finally finished. all the remodeling, painting has finally come to an end and I only had one meltdown. This summer will be busy taking care of what we want to do to the outside. I can’t wait ! Peace to all who enter here.
