Good morning all and Happy Friday!!! I am so enjoying having my daughter here.  I have an apartment full of sleeping sailors, and am going to miss them when they go to maine in march.  I am enjoying every second of it.

Good morning, hope you all have a very good weekend. Got a call from my boss last night, she won't be into work, she is sick. So I am playing boss today. At least it will be a somewhat relaxing day for all of us with her gone..LOL

Jean, sorry you had a migraine! Those are the worst. Happy you get to be with Aurora! Give that sweet girl a hug from me. :-)

Blondie hope it warms up for you this weekend. I won't tell you how warm it has been here, I was enjoying the very short winter we had. But then it doesn't get that cold. Don't know how you all deal with that extream cold! Stay safe.

My girl is going to Pensacola, please pray for her safe travels, she I'd driving alone. Scares the hell out of me, but her loser hubby won't drive with her and take the bus back to GA. She says Mom I am an adult... Yes I know, but you are a woman driving alone...I know I worry to much.

Good Morning to Everyone.

Well I didn't make it to Zumba yesterday. I ended up with a Migraine instead. To much work and not enough people to do it so they dump to much on the ones that are left. They had people go home early yesterday and the one left had to do there work plus our own work. Well I get to babysit my granddaughter tonight. My daughter has school on Thursday night and I am the luckiest person in the world. She asked me to babysit. YEA!!!!

Hope everyone is doing great and hope the weather is getting better for everyone. We are back to the rain again. That is a lot better then the fog.

Jean, that's awesome. I want to get a Zumba DVD and start doing it at home. We have classes at the gym where we live, but all are in the morning while I am working. Hope your not as sore tomorrow.

Blondie, stay safe on those icy roads. Praying it warms up for you soon. It does sound very beautiful though.

Such a fun day at work, our computers have decided they want to do their own thing..LOL Boss has decided she is going to do less... Don't look at me, I am not doing her work, have enough of my own!

Anna, did you get any snow this morning? Bruce's sister posted pics for the snow they got this morning in OK.
Comment by Oneofalot on January 14, 2015 at 10:52am

Blondie, I do zumba 3 times a week and just added yoga this last week. Last week was the first time I was able in a long time to finish zumba. My knees get sore and if I want to walk out of there I can't finish usually. I do go to a gym. We have a lot of then. I live in a very busy city.

Everyone be safe out there. Glad that Ohio won. I know I should be for Oregon, but I don't think they brought the team with them. LOL. Yesterday I got most of the day off.YEA. I needed after trying to take a Yoga class on Sunday. I am so sore. I really didn't think I was missing anything in my workout. I was VERY wrong. Tonight is Zumba. Hope everyone gets well soon too. I had that cold, it was bad. Yuck!!!. Praying for all.
