Life Long an Short of it..

Not much interesting is happening here in Iowa ..So I havent been blogging.. But FINALLY last weekend we took a short vacation.. Off to Las Vegas Larry an I went..We had a great time.... It was warmer in Rochester Minnesota on friday nite when we left then what it was in Las Vegas..Was wondering if go to Vegas in March was very smart...We boarded the plane closed the doors an then tell us we have to leave 20 minutes late so they can first DE-ICE THE PLANE...Was not impressed to know that..but they de-iced an off we went ...When we were over the mountains close to Vegas we went through a snow storm was very happy the plane was de= iced then...Cant wait till we can go again..but hope its in the 80's next time..

Cold

YES ITS COLD!! I'm starting to think it will never get warm here in Iowa again.. The wind blows everyday..an Yes we have snow...I would like to know where all the global warming is at that they keep talking about..I'M FREEZEING AN I HATE IT!! This is getting to be a really LONGGGGGGGGGGG Winter. Hope everyone is staying warm an safe...Love an miss you all

Snow

Yes it snowed again in Iowa...Rose an Dad told me there were expecting eight inches of snow more or less...An what does dad tell me he got a few flakes per acre . An what did I get over four inches of snow..Mother Nature sucks.... We have had enough snow this year already..I dont want or need any more..I cant wait till it is 90* out again..Summer hurry an get here!!!!

Ice

Last nite we got a half inch of ice. I dont know if I like ice or snow less..Both make for me an Larry doing chores alone ...Its getting to be a very long winter already..Kristie if you thought our drive way an the walk to the barn was bad before now its really bad..The owners came an put gravel on the drive way this afternoon an I added a five gallon pail of ice melt so hopefully the sun will shine tomorrow an melt some of the mess we have.. I'm more then ready for 80* again.

Happy New Years

A new year begin's with new hopes an dreams.. May everyone find this year happier an heathier..

Snow!!

YES IT SNOWED HERE AGAIN!!

I am so not impressed with mother nature.. Does she not know it should be snowing in Minnesota way before it snows in Iowa!! What is her problem??

Ginger didnt think much of the snow.She sank in it when she wet out to go potty.. Going to be a long winter here with it snowing already...

Back

Yeah!!! We are back online again..You dont know how much you miss internet until you dont have it for a few weeks...

24 hours

Mom has been home for about 24 hours..some hours rougher then others but in all ok. Here she is resting in the recliner.

Mom is Home

She is tired an sleeping but she is home..

Mom

We got there to see mom this morning an she told us she was tired today...Which was understandable when she went walking 6 time yesterday..Today she didnt walk as often but she came to the waiting room an played cards with us this afternoon ,after 2 games of golf she went back to bed she was very tired. That was at 4 an then we came home for the nite..Laura is busy scrubbing stains out of living room carpet. dad is playing on puter an now i am done vaccumeing so the house will be clean when mom comes home..Tomorrow we will be going back up early so we can go to church at the hospital an spend the day with mom...with any luck at all mom will Toot tomorrow so she can get some food..she is still only getting ice water an very little of that an cough drops..The doctor that came to see her today told her to chew gum cause some times it tricks ur stomach in to working..Dad seems really tired tonite so i look for him to go to bed early. Other then that all is well here.

Dumb Dog

Not only once but twice Ginger went in the box trap..Will she ever learn ??? NO I dont think so..But it was funny when Mathew came in the house to tell us the pig farm dog was in the trap..HIm an Mini couldnt wait to let her out...
