I died & went to heaven!!!!

I dragged myself to the market today fighting against that part of me that just wants to hibernate!!!  It has turned so cold with wind chills around 10 degs so once I've done my morning ritual of walking 2 miles with Molly I just want to stay in the rest of the day.

I was wandering down the ice cream aisle & always have to look just in case "Dan, Dan the ice cream man" has relented & ordered my kind of ice cream.  It was like pinch me I must be dreaming!













I should back up now & explain how I tend to be obsessive about things ....particularly ice cream......it has to have nuts in it....preferably chocolate covered ones!  This is the best ice cream ever, as  it has chocolate covered peanuts ....so picture..... sweet & salty....yum yum!! It doesn't get any better than that!

 I would stock pile it & get very nervous if I got down to the last container.  I even made friends with the guy that ordered the ice cream in my local market...Dan, Dan the ice cream man!  Oh yes I knew him by name.  I even promised to buy 10 gals a week just so he would keep ordering it!

Then tragedy struck & they came out with some new flavors so Dan, Dan quit ordering  my Tin Roof Sundae because there was only so much room in the freezer case.  I went into an ice cream funk because nothing else filled the void!  I even went back to Maple Walnut which I probably ate for 10 years straight.  It just didn't do it!

So here I was doing the happy dance in the middle of the ice cream aisle!  Do you think it was a little much buying 3 containers?  They had two more but I didn't want to appear greedy!

    LOVE ice cream. And I think 3 containers was being modest - LOL! When the cold hits you need to stock up! By the way - how funny your hubby is a bus driver! Good to know my gift cards will be appreciated!

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Happy "13th" Birthday Liza

Today is Liza's 13th birthday(that is 91 in people years). We are just amazed that she not only is still with us, after being told 18 months ago she wouldn't live 6 months but that weather permitting she still walks 2 miles every morning & another 2 in the afternoon! Check out the slide show.......her friend Lucy came over tonight & they each had a donut w/frosting & sprinkles along with ice cream. It was just too funny as neither one of them can see worth a damn but they knew they were getting something good! Lucy had hers gone in 2 bites but Liza went for the ice cream first & then took her time licking off the frosting!

Sewing, weaving & emptying the waterbed

 Monday morning began bright & early as we needed to finish emptying our bedroom.  Mark was dropping LiLi off before 8:00am as she does not have school this week.  We needed to drain the waterbed before we could take it apart.  As usual we were having no luck getting the water to siphon out & even resorted to having LiLi (all 35lbs of her) sitting on it with us!!  It probably took over an hour & who knows how many tries before it worked.  Got the mattress out & discovered the decking was falling apart.....good thing we decided to do this project,,,,I was able to find a local place so we can just replace it & to be safe I also got a new safety liner & heater.  I don't want to be doing this again for a while!  While Popster worked on replacing the baseboard & window trim in those two rooms LiLi & I started working on this doll kit she had gotten for her birthday.  All the pieces needed to be sewn togeth...
