February 2008

  • My mid-life crisis

     The way I always understood it from the movies, the guy in his 40’s or 50’s looks back on his life and what is in the future…decides he isn’t where he thought he was going to be, therefore makes a change…most times…some crazy change that most view as stupid, the little red sports car or Read more

  • I had one of those therapy dreams last night…you know the kind…you wake up and know that something is supposed to change…not one of those can’t find my high school classroom and can’t get the lock on my locker open because I’m naked from the waste up..those are my “I’m so confused while I’m awake Read more

  • Made a connection with an old friend yesterday…ya…she’s old – a whole year older than me.  She was a dispatcher back in the early 80’s and was also trying to get her college degree.  After she graduated, she moved on and other than an occassional Christmas card in the early days, we had totally lost Read more

  • More snow in the forecast

    I swore I was going to quit bitching and be positive…but I heard the forecast today and they are forecasting measurable heavy snow for Monday…this year, when it is forecast, we get it.I took this picture on my way to work today…the air was like pea soup… and here’s a couple of pictures I took Read more

  • Seven degrees below zero

    On our way home from town yesterday, I told him that I probably should take some pictures so we don’t ever forget the winter of 2007-2008…especially the plowed and drifted snow bank on the west side of the road…Had good intentions, but I just can’t make myself go out there at 7 below.  These are Read more

  • Paralyzed

    Holy crap, Batman…we got it all…everything that was intended for us.  Freezing rain, snow and snow drifts…most gravel roads are completely blocked…there are several people sitting in their cars waiting for plows on gravel roads…county road crews tell us they are doing the highways first – then will start on the gravels – just making Read more

    For those of you who have been around for awhile and know that I think my mother is a narcissistic old lonely woman who won’t give an inch…you will understand when i say…I don’t have to visit my father at the cemetary as she demands nor do I need to spend his birthday and their Read more

  • Salmon pattys

    I love salmon pattys…always have…I love them so much that I can’t even figure out why someone wouldn’t like them.  I”m also very obscessive…I’ve been known to eat the same thing for several days in a row then never make it or eat it for years ie: ham balls.  I was making salmon pattys at work on Read more

  • FLYING IS SO NOT GLAMOROUS

    I don’t know how frequent flyers do it…I’m telling you…flying is just not fun..oh, I don’t mind the actual flight of the airplane..in fact, I get quite a rush during the take off and the airlines I’ve flown on seem to make the skies very friendly….also the “mad dog” security is not bad…although I had Read more
