NOT SURE I WILL EVER BE WARM AGAIN

Wednesday, January 13, 2010

Well, that is how I feel now, but in August when it is up to the 100 degree I will be wanting some of this cold. One day I had to work in a store where the heat was not working but we could not cut off the fan,, so it was as cold inside the building as outside with the air blowing directly on me. I thought the day would never be over. Today I work in a store where every time the large doors opened, the cold air blew right across me. I am again in my jammies all wrapped up in a coverlet with the heat going.

Coco apparently thinks this is allf or her. She is in my lap and snuggling under my coverlet. There is one spot on my legs that is really warm. I hope the little heater decides to stay there. I was sneezing yesterday when I came home so I took a DayQuil and it seems to have knocked it out before it got started.

Hubby called me to tell me he is going on extended shifts and will be working this weekend. We agreed that we cannot complain about that as before Christmas they were talking lay-off which is still a possibility in the future. It depends on the economy and if people have money to spend. I know, we have found ways to cut down on our spending and I know lots of others are doing the same.

Hope you are feeling better! I hate what the economy is doing to the average person. We make cutbacks and they raise the prices on everything while we get less and less for our money. Still I am thankful I still have a job even if I got cut back to part time after 5 years of full time, I know things could be so much worse. Enjoy your little pet warmer! Quincy does the same with me at night, I lay on my side usually and he snuggles against my back. Report Inappropriate Comment

A SLOW DAY FOR ME

Tuesday, January 12, 2010

Well, this was not a real eventful day. Things were slow at work today. I did get to the hair salon this morning and got my hair cut as it was looking shaggy.

It is cold again tonight and we are going to have freezing temps. I am all snuggled under my coverlet watching some TV and surfing on the web. Little Miss Coco is curled up at my feet tonight. She did not want to stay in my lap as she usually does.

Hubby will be home about one and we will sit and have a little conversation before we turn in for the night. So far, my work has been scheduling me for the afternoon shift which allows me to stay up until he gets home

  

COLD DAY

Monday, January 11, 2010

It is still cold here but is due to warm up by the weekend. I went to work today and the heat was not working and we were unable to turn off the fan. It actually felt colder inside than when people opened the door and walked in. I had to sit with my coat wrapped around my legs under my desk. I have been sneezing since I got home so I hope I am not comming down with a cold as a results. I have been really careful this year not to expose myself and get a cold this year

I am home wrapped up in a coverlet with Coco trying to help me keep warm. She is snuggled up next to me and occassionally she gets under the coverlet with me and pushes up against my legs

COLD DAY LOTS OF WORK

Sunday, January 10, 2010

Well, it is really cold here. We went to the market yesterday for about 30 minutes. No heat and just too cold. Everyone around us was closed. The few that were open, were getting ready to leave. We decided not to even try going today. Hubby has been helping me clean the storage area. I have really been dreading tackling this. We really got rid of a lot. We decided if we have not used it for a couple of years, we will not. A few of the things we will be selling at the market. Others have no value to anyone. I had several racks of clothes stored there for both myself and Hubby. We will be cleaning these and probably selling them.
I have lost weight and they are all too big for me. I have some really nice clothes so I should beable to get a little for them. Some may go to a consignment shop.

Miss Coco thought it was all a game. She would jump into the trash bag we had to put things in. She would tty to get between us as we worked and that we should be playing with her. As Hubby moved things to the trash she joined him on every trip. I know she really enjoys us being home with her. Normally, she would be at the market with us and have all her groupies coming by to see her. As I am working now, she is alone more than she has been accustom to. She is adjusting pretty well. I am not crating her as long as she stays out of trouble. When I come home, I find all her toys piled together on the bed as this is where is is apparently spending most of her day.

COMFORTABLE TODAY

Thursday, January 07, 2010

I was not scheduled to work today, so I have stayed in the house. I put on warm sweats and Coco and I have stayed in except to go and get the mail out of the box. Hubby told me to just relax today. He made our lunch today and then keep taking Coco out until he left for work.

I have spent some time on the computer and have finished up my last course that has to be done before the 15th for my pay rate.

Coco is acting like she is spoiled. (I would never know who would spoil her). She was in the kitchen barking and when I went in to see what all the noise was about. She had water and she had food, then she started dancing looking up on the counter. There sat her treats when I picked them up, she really got excited. I know that she could not see them from the floor, and they are sealed, so she should not be able to smell them. But then, she got what she wanted

LOL they know where their treats are no matter where you put them! Quincy can find his treats no matter where I put them and when he wants one he finds me, tags me with his paw and then runs to where I have hid his treats and stares at them. He will keep doing this until I give him one! LOL I think small dogs are meant to be spoiled and babied. Congratulations on finishing your last course! I bet you are glad they are done!
