Was that Toto?

Every time I tried to boot up the computer this weekend the power would flake and I decided to let Mother Nature have her fit and stay off the computer. Saturday afternoon we even "enjoyed" three hours without power. During which Bubba decided was a good time to clean up the office... with one window on the morning sun side of the house... duh.

So, the weekend, COLD, blustery, cold... and not all that busy. We went shopping, returned a couple of things, bought a new bedspread set! It was time, and got a few minor errands run. Sunday found us at the bagel store, then me home to enjoy a few hours of peace and quiet while Bubba was out with his work buddies enjoying the football game.

Now this is where I have to use the Cheap Therapy part of this discussion - where on the planet did it become MY job to take down Christmas? AND where did he get off getting cranky when I asked him to take a box (empty) so I could make one less trip up and down the stairs to the basement... oh you poor thing - so sorry I interrupted your taping receipts to paper - like you can't do that at work - or any other time????

FINE - Go get out - frankly I do better without you... So I put away all the Christmas decorations, cleaned up that closet a bit AND did all the laundry, AND re-hotted dinner... NO I didn't cook Sunday night we ate leftovers after my fairly unsuccessful noodle, ham cheese casserole. It called for peas one, I don't do peas... changed to green beans I thought ti worked but frankly if I do that one again ( probably won't) I'll use my mac and cheese recipe instead.

Digressing.

But then the other thought is... you got up, ate a bagel, went out with your friends and came home and sat on your fanny... then had the nerve to call me lazy this morning? SERIOUSLY?

New year... same old Bubba...

On the up side - he's gone this Sunday for the entire week... see ya hon. I be rotten I know... lol

So, back to work for the entire week - heaven help me. Traffic was doable this AM...

And yeah I'm dancing around the subject I don't want to talk about - 5 loses in a row - to what the radio guys called the bottom feeders of the NFL... and we sit on the outside looking in --- no play offs no more football --- heck I didn't even call Dad yesterday afternoon... it went out with a whimper. Yeah we won... what else is on?

I even flipped back and forth a few times but basically stuck with the game- such as was. So fine - everyone can go home, heal up, meditate, whatever it takes... boys we will see playoff next year right? Right?

On another note - what a classless move on the Washington Redskins ownership part - you fire a guy when gets home from his last game of the year at 2AM? Really? You couldn't wait one freaking day and give the man a small slice of dignity? Classless was the only word I could think of this morning... should be an interesting off season for that team...

Ok so Football is done - hockey is in a losing streak - sports is not being fun right now. I have lots of reading material... I'll stick to that.

Stay warm, put a few extra rocks in your pockets to keep to the ground and we'll talk tomorrow.
