I’m hanging in in the March Madness bracket, still holding on to first place. I want to stay up all night and watch all the games, but let’s face it. I can only have so much fun in one day.

It’s getting harder and harder to come up with something to take a picture of on a day where nothing exciting really happened. Especially when Pinot leaves his diarrhea poop ALL over the dining room floor for me to step in. Jackson is the dog I still like.

Pinot is not forgiven, but he is pretty cute. And bendy. And definitely more comfortable than me.

Tonight we booked an actual vacation in New Orleans for spring break. Robin and I had so much fun there last month and were so sad that Billy and Christina couldn’t join us. I’m glad we’re going now as a family.

The kids had a “snow” day today. In the end there was very little ice or any visible evidence of a winter storm, but it absolutely was cold. Only just barely got above freezing all day. Everything was closed or cancelled except Christina’s dance classes, so I did leave the house at least once. Kinda…

We played Phase 10 tonight, which Robin reminded us is her absolute favorite game of all time. Christina came from behind and won it all. And Pinot was an excellent spectator.

It’s been chilly lately. Today it was under 50 degrees when I went outside with the dogs, but in the sun it felt warmer. I always forget when I’m inside how rejuvenating it is to be outside, even lying in dead grass looking at the dead flowers in my garden. Jackson gets it.

I made this blue sweater for Pinot in less than two days while also working full time and going to cheer and dance because we wanted him to have Penn State colors to wear for the semifinal football game tonight, and you can kind of see it on him. The effort was for naught, because…

I knitted half a sock today, which means I didn’t move from my spot on the couch for like six hours, except to eat dinner. That’s what Sundays are for, though, right?

January 3
Today was kind of an average day. We watched Tangled instead of playing a game. I started knitting Christina’s other sock. I didn’t have to work that hard this week (although I did get a lot done), but I’m glad it’s the weekend.

I finished this sweater today. I was worried it would be too big, but it fits pretty perfectly. I wish you could read it a little clearer, but it’s pretty cool. We had dinner with Rosina and Dion and it was a lot of fun.

I’ve been having some pretty good days at work, which I don’t get to say often. But now I’m ready for another week off to prepare for Christmas! Bring it on!

I took Christina out for ice cream tonight to thank her for cleaning out my car without even being asked. It was nice getting to spend some one on one time with her, even if it was just 20 minutes. The rest of the day was a marathon. They’re all marathons. I just can’t seem…

Mondays and Wednesdays are marathons. At least today was fairly productive. Got some bills paid and some papers off my desk. Such a small thing, but a huge weight lifted because it’s been sitting undone for weeks. Now, at last, bed.

We celebrated Robin’s birthday with Colleen & Co. today. It involved Uno Attack, pizza, and eye-rolling over the Jaguars. I also went to the gym and worked out with the girls, which makes it so much more fun. And we finally got the fire pit out again after having the trees taken care of, so…
