This morning there were ambulance and paramedics vehicles outside our building. They were across the hall where a man lives who is recovering from some health problems that had him in the hospital for awhile just before we moved in. They took him out on a stretcher and he was moaning in pain and looked like he had been taking the best otc appetite suppressants because he looked a lot thinner than he had the last time I saw him just a week or two ago.

I sure hope he’s going to be ok. He seems like such a nice guy. When we had that almost two foot snowstorm the day after Christmas he opened his door and asked Andi, who was cleaning snow off the car, if she was going to the store and if she was would she pick some things up for him. Andi did go to the store and help him out. He saw Benton and gave Andi a couple things to give to him.

The day after Christmas we got 20 inches of snow. Saturday we got another 7.7 inches of snow. Tomorrow we are supposed to get ANOTHER 4 to 8 inches of snow.

I just want winter to be over with already. After all the snow we got last year I am so done with that white stuff. I don’t want to see any more of it. The weather people lied. They said that this year wouldn’t be as bad as last year. I don’t know where they got their information from but it was wrong! It’s been colder than last year was and we’ve had more snow than we had at this time last year.

At least this year I have a snow shovel so I can dig out the car when the landscapers come along and plow the parking lot and bury my car. At least the last two storms the snow was light and fluffy. This next storm is supposed to heavier and I won’t be able to shovel it because I have a bad back and have had 2 back surgeries.

I’m really not looking forward to Tuesday into Wednesday…. not one little bit.

I think it’s going to be another bad winter this year. Just like last year there have been a TON of acorns on the trees that are now all over the ground. Last winter we had a TON of snow and it was so cold. Usually during the fall we have several days of warm weather but not really to many of them this year.

I need to get my stuff out of storage because I really need my knockoff ugg boots to keep my toes warm. They are tall enough to use when the snow hits the ground too.

I’ll probably be moving again and hopefully it’s before the snow starts to fall and refuses to quit, like last winter.

Today the temperature got up to 63 degrees!! WooHoo… come on Spring! It was nice enough for hubby to get a few minor rv repairs done to the camper after work. Soon it will stay lighter longer because of the time change coming up.

I can’t wait for everything to green up and the flowers to start blooming. I just LOVE Spring.. it’s my favorite time of the year.

We are supposed to get some precipitation this weekend but it’s not going to be that nasty, 4 letter S-word that we’ve had so much of this winter!! I hope we’ve seen the last of that stuff for a good long time!

Bring it on warmth! I’m ready for you!!

I haven’t run off to some Outer Banks vacation rentals because I couldn’t afford to do that right now. Depression and other life things have kept me away from blogging too much.

Internet connection problems keep me offline quite a bit and it’s doing good today so I’m trying to get some postings done before it goes all wonky again.

The weather here has been very depressing with a ton of snow, some rain and a lot of cloudy skies. Today is bright and sunny and the temperature is supposed to get up to almost 50! I hope the snow is gone until next winter. I’m so tired of seeing white. Well.. it’s kind of dirty white now.. yuk!

I had a job interview on Friday.. I’m hoping that goes well. I have everything crossed that I can cross because I really want to work at this place (I’ve worked there before).

Right now I have to get dressed, go to the store and come back and start changing my other blog.

Have a great day everyone :)

15 Feb 2010 Need to brighten this blog up

I was just sitting here looking at my blog and this theme makes it looks like a cold, dreary winter day. I need to check on some files I have in my online backup and see if I have something a little brighter and cheerier looking.

I need to dump the grays and downer colors for something that will make people smile when they stop by to visit. Something that is warm and reminds us of spring and summer.. not winter. I’m so over winter. We still have tons of snow on the ground and as I go out to the store and stuff I see cars that are so buried in the snow that they probably won’t be able to get those cars out until spring. I’m so done with the white on the ground and the gray of the sky (although the sun is out today.. it won’t last long. They are calling for more snow tonight and tomorrow!)

I’m off to look for something happy for this blog! I hope everyone had a nice Valentine’s Day.

15 Feb 2010 Yesterday was a busy day

Yesterday was cleaning day. I went to the laundromat then stopped at Shoprite, CVS, Ace Hardware and Wawa. The funny thing is I didn’t have to travel very far between those stores. They are all at an intersection.. 1 store on each corner.

I picked up a couple things at Shoprite then went to CVS and struck out (I was looking for Tea Tree Oil and couldn’t find any there). Next stop was Ace Hardware where I picked up a couple cans of “canned air” to blow the dust out my electronics. Then I went to WaWa to get my breakfast sandwich and a couple other things.

After all that I came home and blew the dust out of my computer tower and our two space heaters. Then I had to clean up the dust from that stuff so I dragged out the vacuum and the disinfectant cleaner and washed the floor. I put the laundry away and took a well deserved break.

Today I cleaned the windows. I usually don’t do windows often but living in this camper they get dirty quick. I have to clean them about every 2 weeks.

With all the snow still on the ground and what isn’t snow covered is muddy a lot of crap gets dragged in here on our shoes so I have to shake out the throw rugs and sweep the floor just about every day. That’s the next thing on my agenda for today after I get off this computer.
