Reorganizing, plowing, playing, healing and more!
It's been a while since I posted anything, and yes, I know I say that all the time. I've been up to a lot of great stuff, so I'll just catch up with everything now.
- I've been catching up on a lot of stuff lately. I've had time to go through all my receipts, bills, etc. I'm hoping to actually be ready for tax time this year!
- I've been trying to go through all the photos that I've taken and get them organized. I finally organized all the photos that I got from Carly's wedding.
- I finally got to use my ATV plow. It worked great. It took a little bit of practice to figure out the pattern to use, but I eventually worked it out. The ATV can push pretty much any amount of snow you can put in front of it. I piled all the snow up in one pile, which has the side effect of having some snow left even though it's been warm for a few days. The memory will live on! Seriously though, I'll try to get some photos and/or a video and post them. That will give you a better idea of what it can do.
- Maxine's birthday was yesterday and we went to Red Lobster. It was delicious, but expensive as usual. We had a good time, and we ate cake and ice cream at her place. The ice cream was fudge, and it was delicious. We got her a neck massager, which I could really use right now.
- I've gone pro on Wii bowling. My skill points passed 1000, so I get a special ball covered in diamond shapes. Also, every time it shows my name, it has the word "pro" next to it.
- Melissa and Ryan have a cold. That sucks.
- Speaking of sucking, I ordered 2 vacuum cleaners. Walmart has all of the worst rated vacuums according to consumer reports, and Target wasn't much better. I decided to order online, and got a bagless vac that was well rated by consumer reports. They had a special promo going on, so I was able to get 2 of them for $130. I couldn't pass up that deal, and we can use one on each story of the house. If one dies, we'll have a backup available.
- I've been pretty busy at work, but I have the week of christmas off, so I'm looking forward to that. Hopefully I get lots of games for my Wii so that I can forget about work for a while.
- My mom is doing very well. She's allowed to put weight on her left leg unless she feels pain. She's able to do a lot more on her own. She still has a long time to heal, but she's definitely progressing well.
