Good morning to everyone. We are still with fog. It is support to rain later. I hope so I would like to breath better. Going to watch the game with my daughter to day. We had dinner with her last night and Aurora was so happy, she giggled most of the time. She is become a real person and not just a baby any more. If you know what I mean.

Blondie, stay safe in that mess, wish your Dr. Would close shop.

Jean, Aurora is so adorable, makes me smile! Hope your next job lets you have more time with her.

Have a good weekend everyone, we may get rain this weekend! YAY.

Here is a cute picture of Aurora for your start to Friday and the weekend.

Good Morning to Everyone.

Blondie, I wish I could. I just can't leave since I am in my last few months of this stupid job. Oh by the way I got a job interview for a part time receptions with this company on Monday. It could turn into full time later. I would love the hours if the pay is worth it. If they pay as bad as they are paying me now, it won't be worth it. I do love working for the company but don't like what I am doing right now. Maybe next winter I can come and see your winter. 

Aurora is doing fine. She survived without mom for a night. Apparently, mom did not have enough faith in my sister to keep her over night so the other grandparents took her while mom and dad went to Whistler to ski. I get to see her today Yea!!!!. Some days I wish I didn't work so I can take Aurora for the night. LOL.

Comment by Catsmom on January 8, 2015 at 9:31pm
Agreed spyder, then we would all be happy. :-)
Comment by spyder013 on January 8, 2015 at 8:06pm
Catsmom, yep...spring appears to have sprung...lol. 81 yesterday and 71 today. Hope winter comes back...to bad we can't take some of other moms weather.....
Comment by Catsmom on January 8, 2015 at 7:58pm
Blondie, all I can say is stay safe, don't know how you breath with that cold. I wish I could give you our temps. Crystal said it was 9 degrees there today, that is warm compared to your temps. Why in the world would your docs, keep the office open, way to cold for that. Stay safe!

Jean, I know you will take care, not fun when you can't breath.

spyder we were 89 yesterday, today is 70, slight chance of drizzle on the weekend. So now we have spring, LOL
Comment by spyder013 on January 8, 2015 at 9:44am
