Is this January?

If this is how our winter is going to be....I love it!!!  We have only had about 7" of snow. I took this picture this afternoon.

I got my grade back for the hardest test so far that other people had failed and got bad grades on. I got a 95% on it!!  WHEW! Guess I was stressing over nothing. I am mailing another test tomorrow. I am slowly getting done.

We haven't been doing anything too exciting. Clif has been shoveling the snow, cutting wood to keep us warm and still trying to figure out his fancy tv. I have been studying, organizing expos and enjoying retirement! I am organizing a big expo in March at the fairgrounds. The building will hold 30 vendors and I have 17 confirmed so far. I have another freezer meal workshop this Thursday night.

When Clif is done reading all the news and checking emails and I am tired of studying, it is late. We usually start watching a movie about midnight with a bowl of popcorn, go to bed about 2am and get up around 10am!!!  Nice, huh?? Good thing we are both night owls and have nothing to get up for!

Since we don't have cable...yet, Clif has been reserving movies from the library for us to watch. Clif's brother, Devan made me a couple dvds of home improvement shows for me. Thanks Devan!! You Rock!!!

Our neighbor lady, Jan called me today and told me she is going to introduce me to her beautician. I told her I need "the works", cut, color and eyebrow waxing!! I had that all done in October before I moved here. I REALLY need it done!! Clif doesn't think I need it. He's a man, what do they know???

Jan told me to bring my quilt tops over and she will help me finish them. She said I need to get out of the house more. I have LOTS of quilt tops to finish, it will be nice to get them complete.

Until next time.

Happy New Year!

I hope everyone had a good New Years! Clif and I sat home, watched the movie, "Date Night" and had a bottle of wine.

I have been studying, studying, studying!! Trying to get done with my online Medical Transcription course. I have 6 tests to complete and then the FINAL!! Clif found a website that has helped me ALOT. He doesn't want me to have any blanks in the reports and expects ME to get A's!!! The last test I did was the hardest of them all!! I haven't gotten that grade back yet. Lots of other students have said they failed or gotten a bad grade on it, so I am a little worried. This is where I do my studying...on the couch with my blankie. The table next to me is my mini office. I do have an office in the spare room, but it is cold in there and I don't have the view of the mountains from in there.

Today, we had some snow flurries. We have lots of chick-a-dees. One is on the bird feeder we have. They prefer eating the suet, but that is gone, so they are stuck with the bird seed.

Clif cleaned out the shed so I have a place to put my van. He has also been keeping the wood stove going to keep me warm.

The weather can stay the way it has been. I think we can all handle this kind of winter!
