All things spring.
I found myself looking through a Better Homes and Gardens magazine while I was doing laundry this evening, I wish I could have a garden like the ones in that magazine. They were showing beautiful spring flowers, I think my favorites were the Bleeding Hearts, I've always loved them. I guess I'll have to wait until we move because I'm not gonna work hard on a garden just to have cats go in and use it as a toilet! The magazine also said that the Bleeding Hearts and a few other flowers were no very favorable to deer, which is just the kind that I'll need!
It's snowing again, big, wet, fluffy flakes. I don't think that we'll get enough to worry about, but hey, it's Michigan, you never know! I don't really want it to snow that much anyhow since I'm supposed to be a chaperon for the band this weekend. We're going to Houghton Lake this year, which makes the kids very happy because we get to spend the night. I've heard rumors that the place we're staying has access to a water park of sorts w/ a neighboring hotel. I just hope that they have a treadmill!! There's only 12 kids going this year, of course, Emily is one of them which is why I'm going along. I think I'll take along a book or two to read, either that or I'll nap while they're in rehearsal. In a few more weeks they get to go to Solo/Ensemble, well, the Sr. High band does. I'm sure I'll go along on that one too, but we'll probably take a bus, not sure yet if the school is gonna help out with that or if we'll have to car pool again.
Yes, I still feel icky, my cold is still in full force but now my nose is starting to get really red and sore and dry all at the same time!
Sarah is supposed to come home this weekend, I won't get to see her until Saturday night though, but that's O.K.! I can't take my Christmas tree down until she comes here and gets her gift, so I'm really hoping that she does come home this weekend!!! hehe.
D is watching Shrek the Third, so I have to sit here and type with my headset on and music blaring in my ears so that I don't hear the ending. Em and I started to watch it and got interrupted half way through, so I don't want it to be ruined! Maybe I'll take my portable DVD player to the band thing this weekend and we can finish watching it at the hotel. Yup, I just talked myself into it.
Ahhhh, we have a new family member, so to speak. Christen is now the proud owner of a rabbit. Just what we needed!!!!! I'm sure y'all know what this means.....yeah, "I" will get to take care of it as soon as the newness wears off, either that or it's rabbit stew for supper some night!! NOOOO, you know as well as I do that I could never do that! It really is a cute bunny, it's mostly white but has brown ears and brown around its nose and its feet have a little brown on the tips. Now the talk is that it needs a friend....OYE! The cats all want to be it's friend >:) muwahhahaha....heh, not really, but they do seem to be hanging around the hutch a lot!
The last time I went to see Whitney (my horse) I had to do some mane control...she had some dread locks going on from the wind, whew, they look worse than they really are, but they only take about 5 minutes to untangle. It looks pretty after I get them all out and brushed, looks like she got herself a perm :) Right now she looks like a nanny-goat with all the hair she has....I say nanny-goat because right under her chin she gets a big clump of hair, just like a goat.
I wonder when I'll hear from the Tom about Em's basketball game. I don't usually go when it's an away game because of the two youngest child_units, plus I don't feel well. They should be on their way home by now, I guess I'll just have to wait until his phone comes into range. I hope they won!
I think I want to go out and watch some Food Network now.
Y'all enjoy some band music this weekend,
Love Ya :)
