What We Did Over Spring Break

It was neither felt like Spring or a Break. We were plain busy!

The first two days I finished my business/school portion of taxes so that John could plug the numbers in to the computer program. The result was nice; a return that was 4xs more than last year!

Whitley did a fantastic job helping with Spring Cleaning, ya know, the deep stuff that involves cleaning out closets and drawers and filing and all that good stuff. I also got caught up on laundry and all the bedding switched to Spring comforters.

John got his eyes dilated and tested and we FINALLY ordered him some really nice bifocals with all the bells and whistles on them: transition, no line, non-scratch,etc.

We saw a few friends that we do not normally get to see over the course of the school year and although our time was short, it was sweet indeed!

We have getting storm after storm and some much needed snowfall, which ultimately translates to water!! Surprisingly, I do not mind it as we have had a very mild winter and I know that summer will soon be here..and with a lower threat of forest fires!

I still had 6 jobs I had to run for my cleaning business over break so I'm never really on a vacation until I get out of town all together; I am so thankful to have a job tho!

Our trip to S.Dakota was cancelled due to weather as we had planned to drive it; perhaps another time. I purchased a ticket to see my U. Larry as he has an aggressive form of brain cancer and his time on earth is short. I hope I make it in time to see him. I will be in AZ from the 14-17th.

Other than that, there is 35 calendar days left of my semester, 16 class days and 6 exams to go!!! Whitley has had a fantastic semester and we had a wonderful teacher's conference. The teacher is referring her for the Honor's Program at the Middle School next year so Whit was very pleased with herself...as were we! PHEW!

Right now, my family is waiting on me ot head out the door to eat and to run to Target for a few items. I hope to post next week!

Ta ta for now!
