Today is the 1st day of Lent...my first day without chocolate...so far so good. Mass is at 5 pm tonight so I'm leaving work a few minutes early to attend. I'm really looking forward to 40 days of spiritual renewal, and Easter. I've been reading up on the Ash Wednesday service and the reasoning behind the ashes...cool stuff...not just for Catholics either- who knew. It's actually rooted in the Old Testament of the Bible.
We've had a few more showings on the house. They even called early this morning to show it today. I feel kinda silly wishing to be "homeless" but it's such a cool house...some one needs to buy it so Dewey and I can move on. Soon the snow will melt and there will a yard and a house to make "pretty"...Spring IS coming I tell you. Oh, did I mention there's a 70% chance of SNOW tomorrow?.....
Duane and I had a good anniversary, Valentine's Day was nice and now we're making plans for my birthday on the 2nd of March. We're fairly certain we're going to the Hot Springs (we need to soak the old bones...lol) and maybe I'll get to hang out with Tyler and Erika some. I'll probably have to celebrate with Twinkies instead of chocolate cake (ahhhhhh!!) but otherwise it'll just be another year gone. Erika will be 14 next Monday- she's 40 years younger I am...you do the math....Anyway, when I'm around here I'm always amazed at her boundless energy! I wish I had some of it.
I'm off work for a few days and then back on Saturday. Then 2 more days off....rough life, eh? I like my job but we're going to have some new equipment changes soon that may cause some momentary headaches....change is always a challenge...."resistance is futile".... (and wastes everyone's time)....
