Winter is taking another (last?) swipe at us. The wind is blowing 22 mph from the NE and the temp is down to 32*. It's snowing like crazy!

Yuck! I hope we are done for the year...they will be golfing in the snow out there.

We got spits of rain off and on today, but not enough to fret about, unlike SOME people we know. In fact, even if we'd gotten a lot more I'd have felt guilty complaining about it.

Ken's having a rough day. The Percocet are making him pretty sick, so he's decided to stop them altogether. He told me not to bother filling the hydros...he won't take them anyway. But I'm going up to Powell and doing it anyway, on accounta he couldn't stop me if he wanted to!

Tonight he's going to try to sleep after taking a couple of Advil. Yeah, we'll see how that works for him.

I don't know why I'm having such a hard time tonight. It isn't me going through all this, but I feel so totally tired - just bone numbing tired. Of course, I had the girls at 5:30 this morning because the morning cook at the school called in sick at the last minute, but that's nothing new and I was up anyway. Part of it is because we put the head of the bed up for Ken (it's adjustable) and it wasn't high enough for him and too high for me. So tonight I'll camp out in the recliner and see if we can both get some sleep. I'm so afraid I'm going to roll into him during the night that I lay there like a statue, staring at the ceiling and almost hoping I don't fall asleep. I'm one of those move-all-over kinds of sleepers.

Don't pay me any mind....just tired and crabby. Ever have one of those days when you'd like to go to bed to get away from your own self because even you don't like you? Yeah, like that.

Oh Blooie, poor you, and poor Ken. Hope you both get a bit of rest and feel a bit brighter tomorrow.

Maybe this can make you smile:

Hey Blooie; besides that I have a lot of mates here on BYC who have got me covered when moral support is needed and/or a virtual hug, I also learnt over the past week that it is OK to have an ‘it’s all about me moment’. Once it’s over, you are refreshed and ready to take on the next challenge and/or help others.

If all else fails .....

Nice work Teila! Enjoy your well-deserved drinks.

Jaeg You must be stalking me, I cannot tell you how many time I've tried to pull a push door. I saw the sign, it just doesn't register. Duh! My brother gets a big kick out of it.

I can do better than that -twice I've strolled into a MENS room and passed by the WOMENS. The last time I was a bit surprised by a couple urinals but I thought family bathrooms have stuff like that & also changing tables. I was washing up and a store employee (male) came in - at first I thought that was 'some nerve' of him barging in and then reality struck.

I think I fixate on the Men sign maybe thinking they are giving some away

I think it's time for early bed tonight. And no I don't drink, I'm just ditsy.
