I will go ahead and apologize to any reading this right now. This will be a post of random ramblings and stuff that I have on my mind. Maybe you will at least get a laugh out of my incoherent craziness :)

Topic 1 ~ Work
To say it has been a busy week would be a complete understatement. I have been chasing my tail all week! You must know my personality to understand... I am the type of person who wants everyone to be happy. My darling customers have been very demanding this week, which is not unusual. For some reason everyone thinks I know the answer to everything. I think this too...LOL Not really, but they know if they need something I will search the world over just to answer their question or help them. I have been stressed to the point of pulling my hair out, and when someone wants something right now I have to find a way to make it happen. Otherwise I feel like a complete failure, which I know must be some type of personality defect. I guess that is why I enjoy work so much, people think I am smart and they depend on me...I secretly love that ;) With all that being said, today was the greatest! I finally somehow managed to get caught up today. I was so happy I could have danced all around the office...don't worry I managed to contain my enthusiasm. So tomorrow is Friday and I hope I can wrap up the week with everyone happy and taken care of, we will have to see what tomorrow brings. Tomorrow we have to do inventory. Not so much looking forward to this since we will have to work very late tomorrow. Usually I wouldn't mind, but it is possible that we may get a blizzard tomorrow night. Not really a blizzard, but they are calling for lots of winter weather. I can't say the exact amount right now since they seem to change it every hour. Lets just say today it has been anywhere from 3-11 inches of snow...woo hoo! Your guess is as good as mine on this one. Either way I am leaving my car at home and making Mark come pick me up because I am sacred the roads will be bad when we get finished.

Snow, Snow, Snow
Like I was saying we are unsure how much "SNOW" we will get this weekend. I am wishing for at least 6 inches, more would be great. Are you wondering why I am so excited? I can't wait to take my 4 wheeler out in a big snow and play!!! I can't wait to get together with all of our friends and go ride and do random dangerous stuff. Sledding on car hoods across the pasture and other child like things. Nothing brings the kid out of you like a big fluffy white snow. I can not contain my excitement on this one!!! Endless possibilities... The way things go we will probably get nothing, I guess we will have to wait and see. Either way I am prepared. There is a chance of ice too. Since we could experience power outages I have been working my butt off at the house this evening. I have been washing clothes like my life depended on it! You just never know. If we lose power I want to make sure the laundry is done. I am not cleaning the house, I know if we get snow our house will be a mess from going in and out, so I will wait on that one. I went to the grocery store and bought water and junk food. I am READY...bring it on!!!

Itchy & Scratchy
I have had places on both of my arms for about a week now. I have been itching like crazy! I don't really think much of stuff like this. I have sensitive skin and I break out in small patches that look like hives often. I really thought it was maybe dry skin, but not the case. Finally after all this time Mark figured out what it was. I have poison oak!!! Yes, I know it is winter but there is a very logical explanation to how this happened. Mark and I are both avid hunters. I hunt deer, doves and occasionally squirrels. Mark does a lot more hunting than I do. I have not been hunting lately since deer season ended at the 1st of the year. Still here is the story of my poison oak. Mark has beagles that he rabbit hunts with. Rabbits live in thick underbrush which is where you would find poison oak. The rabbits and dogs get poison oak on their coats which transfers to Mark when he picks up the dogs. Mark ask me to wash his hunting coat, no problem... I scoop up his coat and head to the washing machine with it...thus poison oak on my arms. Nice, huh? Now not only do I have it on my arms but it has spread where I have scratched for the past week. So I guess I will be soaking in a bath tub of Clorox this weekend to try to dry it up. Then I am sure that the Clorox bath will break me out so it will probably be a never ending process...LOL Thank you hunny that was so sweet of you :) Note to self:never touch Marks hunting clothes again!

Random News Stories
ahh how I love the news...

Toyota: Oh how all the truths have come to light. Was I not right a few post ago? Go ahead and stick a fork in them, Toyota is done! I can guarantee you this is no where near over with. The halo that once hung over Toyota has now turned to horns. I feel for everyone who owns these cars including my sister. Can I just say that I bought my Accord new in 2003 and have only had 1 recall on it in the seven years i have owned it :) I can't wait to see how the Toyota story unfolds.

John Edwards: Shame on you as well! I use to really like John Edwards, now he makes me sick. Why oh why do I think there are decent politicians? I try to like them, but they let us down every time. You never know the details of what goes on in a family, but this just makes me sad :( All the lies and deceit. Really...they always get caught so why don't they just fess up in the first place? IDIOTS!!!!

Last but not least

Taxes: So our taxes are done and we get our Federal refund back Tuesday. I was excited to have a little chunk of money to put into savings. How come every time you have a little money coming something soaks it all up? Our escrow account was short because of property tax increases so between that and some dental work I need..tax money will pretty much get here and be gone :( Oh well at least we are getting new cell phones :)

I hope everyone has a safe and happy weekend. Hopefully I will have some great snow pictures for everyone to check out!
