What's on my mind today...

 

Today I'm riding the Tuesday Train.

We did get a few snow flurries yesterday. Or as my family puts it, it was "spittin' the snow." Of course nothing stuck on the ground in my neck of the woods. Not sure about the rest of the county. But it was pretty to look out and see it flying around. My niece was going back to college yesterday from her winter break. She was traveling from Barboursville, WV to Wheeling, WV. A little above Charleston, they hit snow. After they had been driving for about four hours, she posted this pic of the interstate they were on.

That is some nasty weather. Glad she made it there safely. Hope my brother spent the night before he headed back home. I'll have to call and check on him this morning.

I'm vamping up my website design side of my business. I've been getting a lot of requests lately from customers and friends who are looking for a web designer. I really enjoy designing sites using the Website Tonight program. It is so easy and gives you total flexibility with your designs.

I found a daily planner on sales at Walmart that I like better than the one I got at the Dollar Tree. I love that the top of each page has a beach scene. Thought I would snap a pic of it before I transferred my appointments. It lays better, the size is more what I was looking for, the dates are already filled in and there are tabs for the months to make it easy to flip ahead and plan. This is for my business appointments. I'll still be using the other one for family and church functions.

I finished the little box yesterday that I was making for my friend. I'm taking it to her at church tomorrow night. Just when I was thinking about what project to do next, my sister called. She had seen the box and the new blue yarn on my blog yesterday. So now she needs a new box for some of her bangle bracelts and silver jewelry. I got it cut out last night and I am going to start it tonight.

After dinner last night, Hubby suggested we play a game of dominoes (yes, I know, old people alert). We haven't played in a couple of years. So we got them out and started playing only to realize we couldn't remember how. I pulled out the directions and there were so many different games and so many rules and wierd score keeping that we put them up and played rummy instead.

I was looking at my new ALL YOU magazine yesterday and saw where Robyn Carr has released three new books in the Virgin River series. These are going on my must have list. I haven't missed one of these books yet. You feel like you know the people and like you live in the town with them. Love this series.

Every year it is a big joke around my house "What Christmas item will I miss packing up this year?" I got everything all packed up last week and we both walked through the house...twice and congratulated ourselves on a job well done. I didn't miss a thing this year....or so I thought. Yesterday, hubby had his first day off since Christmas was stored away. When he sat down at his desk to do some paperwork, we found his Christmas coaster was still out. Oh, well. Missed one. Maybe next year.

 We all change things in the New Year. We make resolutions and goals. We plan and organize. We make tons of changes. I have done all that as well, but one thing I will NOT change is cutting back on Junior Mints. There will still be a dish on my desk at all times and a dish on my end table in the living room. Yes, I am addicted to them and I can't help it. I cut out a lot of sweets and a lot of Pepsi's over the past year, but I refuse to do away with my Junior Mints.
