Spring!

It's supposed to get up to 72 today and 77 tomorrow. It's wonderful!!! The girls have a daddy visit on Friday, so we will decorate Easter Eggs on Saturday. I hope to go to church on Thursday and Friday. Since no one is coming for Easter, I'm not sure what to cook. Erik will be here and Aubrey and the girls, but that's it. Allison and Chris and Evelyn, and Andy and Christine and Louise and Al are coming the next weekend. I'm cooking Julia Child for them.
I'm hoping to get spring cleaning done in the next two weeks. Maud puked on the sofa last night and now I have to shampoo that. Of course the rugs need shampooing. It just seems that I shampoo and the dogs think "Oh a clean canvas! Let's pee on it!"
We hope to plant potatoes this weekend. Erik tilled up the garden Sunday in anticipation. He moved out Sunday night. All he needed was his clothes, so it wasn't a big job. Pretty sure he'll be back for some meals. Also to help with the garden.

Frustration

The girls had a visit with their father today. He was supposed to bring all the things he still hadn't gotten to Aubrey. He texted her to bring the ring as he had everything for her. She said she would bring it to the evening pickup so that she could look through everything and make sure it was all there. There was back and forth.He said his Mom wanted to start wearing the ring. Aubrey knew she didn't wear rings and called her. She knew nothing about it. Aubrey took the ring, gave it to him and he still has things to get to her!!! Now he lies to her also. He is also living with the "helper". Such a good example for the girls!!! Attorney won't call Aubrey back either. What did she pay him 5575.00 for?! Kim was smoking this morning! I shrank Erik's new Jason Aldean shirt! Didn't know it was in the wash. Alair is whining for a pop tart. I have had it!!!!!!

Fog

We have been waking up to fog for over a week now! The temps. don't go below freezing at night. The snow is going down fast and there are dangers of flooding in many areas. I want spring, but not so fast. There is a lot of mud for the dogs to track in the house also.I want the sun!!!
Aubrey and the girls and i got sick too. We are doing better now and hope it's over for a while. The coughing hangs on though.
Erik turned 21 yesterday. We had hamburgers on the grill, potato salad, baked beans, and death by chocolate. Tasted like summer!!I think he's moving out this week. He will be renting a house that belongs to a co worker of his. Rent is cheap!
I am working on Alair's Easter dress, then a fleece jacket for Claire, then a nighty for Alair. I really like sewing clothes for the girls. Also bought patterns for the other granddaughters for some summer clothes. I have lots of fabric, just need to decide which for who.

Runny Noses

Alair came down with a cold last Sunday... bad cough, stuffy, then runny nose, then hacky cough. No school or dance. Natalie got sick Saturday. We went up to Foley any way and moved stuff. Claire got sick yesterday. Long incubation period.
Temps inthe upper 40s to 50 this week!! Maybe most of the snow will melt. Only 3 1/2 weeks till Good Friday.(planting potatoes)
Aubry has been organizing the things we brought here Saturday. A lot of stuff!!! Still Voldemort forgot things...or just didn't feel like doing what was involved to get the things to Aubrey. If he wants to get rid of Aubrey, he needs to get off his butt and get going!

Moving Day

This Saturday, we go up to Aubrey's neighbor's house and get the rest of her stuff. I hope we can get all of it and not go again. I also hope we have room for it all. Aubrey and the girls have been here 6 weeks now and she is getting restless. She will start transcription now and hopes to work at Barnes and Noble part time also. The girls seem to have adjusted well and seem comfortable here.
Alair has a bad cough and sounds just awful. No dance or ecfe this week.
The temps are warming up. Near 40 most of this week. It feels so good just don't like the slush and mud. As it gets warmer I'll be able to finish my shop though. Kim is building me a brick oven outside this summer. I hope. He's really excited to get started. I told him the shop comes first.
