Hello March

Or better known (around here at least) as my birthday month .. Yep month ..

*disclaimer*  This post it brought to you by late evening ramblings and Whipped Cream vodka and cranberry juice LOL..

March is coming in like a lion - we are in the middle of a winter storm warning and its snowing them some ice mixed in... boo hiss..  I hope this means the end of March goes out like a lamb. I'm flat sick of being cold and bundled up.. I want to paint my toe nails pretty colors and throw on flip flops and maxi skirts and feel the sun warm me up..

I meant to blog Friday and do the usual Friday letters but it was beyond busy at the office and I juggled calls and paperwork all day them came home to log on and finish up so that I was not starting Monday behind the 8 ball.

Later Friday evening I received a call from my daughter and we ended up talking until midnight - that has NEVER happened.. Here's hoping to a better mother/daughter relationship than we have had in the past. She did let me know that even though we have this crappy snow storm coming that my mother is hell bent on going to the dinner theater Sunday night and wanted to know if I wanted to go with her.

At first I said no, I have a ton of paperwork to catch up on and the weather is going to suck. Saturday I find out shes STILL planning on going. My Mother is going to be 72 this month and on her best day her driving is scary as hell, so I told her if it was possible to go and they don't cancel I will go BUT I AM DRIVING HER. I hate to say this but I am praying its cancelled..

I usually don't like KS Wizzard of Oz jokes - honestly most of us here don't LOL but this came across my facebook feed today and I loved it..

Have a great rest of your weekend!! 

2 days ... Are you ready??

We blinked and now Christmas is 48 hours away... Saturday I finished up my holiday shopping before the ice and snow storm hit.. Now I just have to sit and wrap it. Which will most likely be done with the fireplace going and a glass of wine.

Sunday we went up to the hospital to hang out with Dad where  he was waiting to get his permanent pacemaker implanted - which got delayed for an emergency  "heart episode" someone had the misfortune of being in the middle of. So that is supposed to happen today. It looks like he will be discharged Christmas Eve.

Sunday evening was date night with my Mama, we went to the dinner theater. One of me all time favorite actors George Wendt (Norm from Cheers) and his wife were the headliners. I had a wonderful time. I may have ate a little to much and then ordered a seriously decadent dessert ..... Though I only ate half of it - it was super rich...

Yes, that is a piece of chocolate cheesecake, covered in chocolate genache', with a cream puff on the side and a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.. The other half is waiting for me in the fridge to have with my wine tonight while wrapping the last of the presents!! 

In other Sunday news my Broncos clinched the AFC West Championship for the 3rd year in a row and Payton Manning broke the record for most touchdowns in a season!! 

How was your weekend???
