News from me.

Today is a much better day and I’m able to carve out some time to write. The biggest news is that Anna got a new vehicle. She got a 2010 Toyota Rav4. It’s a compact SUV that rides higher and more importantly has AWD. She really likes it and that’s the most important thing. Trust me, with the weather this winter, there’s nothing like an SUV with AWD.

School was closed on Thursday and Friday because of dangerously cold weather, lots of snow and also very strong winds. I actually made it in to the office on Thursday morning and Joel informed me that the office was closed. I had enough to keep me busy so I kept working until I left for my annual eye exam.

Oh, on Wednesday, Joel, Kathy, Anna and I watched the musical Lion King. We had gotten tickets to the performance and the seats were amazing. Even though I’ve seen it before, I still can’t help be amazed by the musical especially the puppetry. Needless to say, all of us had a great time at the musical. The weather kept some people away, but it was a still almost full.

We went to one of Anna’s friend’s house for a dinner get together. We seem to rotate between three couples and they decided to host this time. Actually, they informed us that it could possibly be the last time they host it at their present house because they are looking to close on their house and will be building a new home. It was good to catch up with them.

In all honesty, that’s all that took place last week. In so very many ways, not a whole lot happened because of the weather. People pretty much stayed indoors where it was warm. Travel was not advised one bit. I should tell you that with all the school closings, instead of getting off school on June 7th, she’ll only be getting off on June 14th which is four days before the wedding. The bad news is that there could still be a couple more snow days between now and the end of winter and if that’s the case, she might go all the way till the wedding. Needless to say, that’s not sitting well with her, but I keep telling her that it’s something she has no control over. Time will tell and we’ll just have to wait and see how things go.

That’s all from me.
