What happened to Spring?

Is my calendar wrong? Is it not March 24? Brrr it is damn cold out right now and it has been freaking snowing! I thought it was going to get warmer, but nooooooooo now they tell us two more days. What will they tell us on Sunday? Two more? Damn I want spring! Though the sun shining through the clouds and a gentle snowfall on the prairie looks pretty, it only really looks pretty in December. By the time March rolls around I want to see green grass, buds and leaves, flowers poking their heads out. Giggles and laughter as children run through the grass chasing butterflies. It doesn't really matter that we had a mild winter, I am ready!

Work wasn't bad today, but I couldn't wait for the day to end. I wanted to get home and start my long weekend. You know the one the weatherman said was going to be in the mid 40s!? Well, cold or not I am off until Tuesday and I am looking forward to it.

A day for me. No running to the DMV, getting Steve back and forth to work. Just one to relax and do what I want.

Boys lost their 4th game in a row tonight :( It's been a rough stretch and nothing seems to be bouncing their way. I can't even count how many goal posts they've hit in this stretch. The other night there were 5, tonight a couple and a goal disallowed. Argh! Frustrating as all get out, but they are holding their own in 4th place in the conference and better to slump now then in a few weeks. A few days I heard they had 32 out of a possible 36 points. I can remember a day when I was happy if they got 15 points. They've also played 13 games in 24 days. Not worried yet, but I do hope they pull themselves up by the skate laces and get it together.

Oh, I also owe you all an apology. I forgot that Jeannette had gone private with her journal. Feel free to email her and she will add you to her list. Sorry about that.

Ok I just heard it all. New 'broaches' are selling like hot cakes. A lady has taken live cock roaches, glued gems to them, and put them on a leash. You wear them and let them crawl on you. WTF???? Who would be interested in that??? Paaaleease!!!!

I'm going to bed! LOL

Cool (literally, lol) graphic. I am so envious of y'all that do these graphics and tags. I wish I had the time and energy to do it. Hope you've warmed up by now.

yep where did spring go, I'm sick of the cold. I have the week off for spring break so I sure hope it's nicer weather. Broaches with cockroaches, I would kill it. LOL. Yuck. Go CUBBIES, baseball season is almost here.

I, for one, am not interested in wearing cockroaches. Thank you. Snowing where you are? Well, we don't have snow here but it was a rainy day.
Very pretty graphic but I want spring flowers - please and thank you.
