No Class

Yahoo!  No class tonight due to inclement weather. Probably another six inches tonight! Thank you God! I love it!  By the way, Lou, I did check out some X-country skis on E-bay, and I have no clue what I am even looking at!    Here's the rest of my day in bullets (so far):
  • I woke up this morning after a very vivid dream about Anne Frank.  This is not the first Anne Frank dream I have had, but one of the most vivid.  I think I will sit down with her book tonight.  BTW, it was not unpleasant at all but very peaceful.  She was trying to tell me something and I just was not getting it.  Funny, the language was so articulate, as if she was reading to me and even in the dream I was thinking, where am I getting this vocabulary from?
  • Although it has been over a week since I have worked out and I have had a few relapses on my diet I went to the gym today and resumed.  I am so happy to say that not only did I not gain any weight, I actually lost a half a pound.  I just cannot believe it.
  • These snowy days have brought my husband and I together doing fun things  like walking and shoveling, hanging a new bird feeder, watching the bird feeder out the window.  Shopping for the perfect snow shovel (no lie)!  Don't we sound like a couple of old fogies?  I don't care.  This time off has brought us closer together and I am grateful for that.
  • The other night I was talking to my sponsor about resuming counseling about some unresolved stuff I just can't seem to get past.  Lack of insurance has been my dilemma.  Yesterday I got a new insurance card in the mail.  Apparently I worked enough before I got layed-off to be covered through the end of April.  I made an appointment yesterday.  Pretty cool.
  • Lou asked her readers to post a pic that makes them happy.  I have posted a few over the last few days, but the one that really makes me smile is the one of my sweet doggy.  She will be 9 years old this month and she is a very much loved, spoiled, brat!  Scroll down to the previous post, you can't miss her!
  • Have a happy snow day everyone!

Beautiful, Blessed, Day

frozen willow tree
It was so pretty this morning. The snow on the tree branches from the big storm had started to melt and the low temps over night turned all the trees into crystal figurines.  The snow in the pics was up to my knees in most spots.  Wish I had some cross country skis!














 
And then of course there is my girl.   My sweet Shannon Blue.  She will be 9 years old this month.  She looks  like she is posing, but she is watching a flock of Canadian geese about 50 yards away.
