Superbowl Here We Come

Just wanted to tell you all that due to finances I do not have access to my computer and also no cable tv which means no tv around here without a pair of rabbit ears.

Work is going great and my schedule is Tues through Sat.

I was busy today with laundry, color hair, cleaning and then bathing Manley before listening to the Packers on the radio and through texts and facebook. GO PACKERS!!

I still have my Blackberry so can do a lot on here----it just takes longer with just thumbs vs both hands.

Love you!!

Bald Eagle, Packers and Work

This is a male bald eagle that is resting in the tree across the river.  His white head is kind of in the snow on the mountains, but I think it’s pretty clear!!  He is BIG when flying.  I realized that there is a nest just up the river from me and here it is!

This is the female in the nest.  They come back to this nest every year for the past 3 years that my landlord knows of.  Pretty spectacular!!

And the Packers WON!!!!!   48 – 21 over the Atlanta Falcons.  And lots of people at work thought the Falcons were going to win.  NOT.  It will be an interesting Monday morning when I go into work. 

Talking about work, our computers and phones are all down in the new offices and we will have a very busy first week getting things organized and driving the cars down to that lot.  It will be very different without all of the paging, parts guys yakking and the smell of the garage wafting through the doors when opened.  I am looking forward to it. 

I am reading David Baldacci’s ‘Hell’s Corner’ and then on to Tom Clancy’s ‘Dead or Alive’. 

So, today I am going to get a few things done around here---- like laundry, dishes, vacuuming, and then watch the Bear/Seahawk game to find out who the Packers will play next Sunday!!!  It is sunny out and about 20 degrees so far this morning, so will make the most of it!

Hope y’all have a good Sunday

BBBBBBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Here’s how my day started Wednesday.

Some one hid my car!!  I did find it though. :)

We got more snow the following day too.  Roads are icy and snow covered.  Now it is about 12 degrees above zero, and last night it got down to 19 BELOW zero. 

I got to pick up Kalyn, my great niece, yesterday and spend some time with her bringing in the new year.  We had pizza for supper and went to bed shortly after midnight.  I made scrambled eggs with chorizo and english muffins and fresh-squeezed orange juice for breakfast. Then Jody, my niece, came about 2:00 to pick her up and take her back to Los Alamos.  The roads are not good so I hope they make it without incident. 

Tonight I am going out to Catherine and Mike’s for a prime rib dinner.  The dessert will be a pound cake--- and guess who gets to take the leftovers home!!  (just the dessert)  Manley is the one who really got the invite but I get to drive him out there and drive him home.  Glad I get to eat at least!! 

Nothing much planned for tomorrow except laundry and football. 

Hope y’all have a Happy New Year and keep those resolutions!!
