nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah!!!

i just wanted to let everyone know, i had the windows open today.......the banks we passed with temperature readings on their signs said anything from 68degrees to as high as 72degrees..........it was beautiful, sunny, warm, with a breeze............

yeah, i'm being mean..........but then again, it's supposed to snow later this week.........so i had to, just had to..............

it's days like today that remind me that winter will end eventually................

on another note............i'm debating on joining the challenge........... http://chilechews.blogspot.com/2008/02/stress-less-in-march.html ...............i'm just not sure. it's a great plan, to spend 30minutes a day of mindfulness (meditation, yoga, stuff like that that keeps your thoughts on the now, not the worries)............it would be a good idea, for every day, to take time out and calm down, get centered/grounded, stuff like that...............i'm just worried that trying to fit something into the daily schedule will actually cause more stress in the house..........either just trying to remember to do it, or freaking out when i get to bed adn realize i've forgotten..............i'm hideous at remembering things............even things that happen every day (the number of days i simply forget to brush my hair, until it's either bedtime or we're about to leave the house, is simply uncountable)(and this is bad, my hair is almost long enough to tuck into my pants!)...................and our daily schedule is hectic enough without trying to impose something else onto it..............
i'm just not sure.
i might start doing soemthing like this when i can......on my own time, with my own stimulus.......
if i do, it's prolly gonna be something like learning tai chi, which is something i've been meaning to start anyways to help my health........

on this note, only different........
i really wish i had a friend that lived close enough to do things with.........i love all my good friends.......but my three best friends all live 6 hours away from me, in three different directions.......and i see one of them around once a year, and another twice a year (and we missed one of those times for weather, so it's down to once this year)........the third i see fairly regularly, but we are usually so crazy busy that we dont' have time to hang out and just be girls.............this drives me nuts. i have other friends that are closer, but not really less than a few hours..........and not really the kind that you would call up and say 'hey, wanna go shopping?? i'm going nuts here, i need outta the house'................
i guess what i'm saying is i'm feeling lonely...........
now, this is not a whine, or a ploy to convince a certain nerd to come get me.............this is just a moment of loneliness...........
and said nerd and i will get together asap, as soon as we can coordinate lives, schedules, and money issues..........on both ends.
and yes, we can hope that a certain redhead that i missed on my b-day weekend will be able to come out to something else eventually......................
and we can hope that a certain other redhead will calm down, and we can actually hang out sometime instead of running around like chickens with our heads cut off............
and yes, this has been posted in public.............
and i will try.

i love you girls.....................but i'm still gloating about today's weather!!

Gloat away m'dear. It hit 68 here today and I got the whole house freshened at last by being able to open all the windows.

Granted.... we're supposed to get an icestorm tonight.

That's it - by the by.

We have to get together. The kidnapping plan is commencing (cause I gotta admit, I could use a couple of days of girl time as well. The cats just don't cut it as much as they used to.)

Well, let me know if you decide to jump in and do it. Which reminds me, I haven't done my 30 minutes yet today and I neeeeeed it!

It was only 63 degrees here today but yesterday was 70 degrees. Flowers are blooming, the bees are pollinating, and the butterflies are fluttering. Life is good. (Except for the whole broken down vehicle thing.)
