Well the one thing I can say I love about winter is the occasional snow days.  They seem to come up at the perfect time (right in the middle of the week!)
So what did I do with my day home?
So many days I get up in the morning and think of all the things I could get done if I didn't have to go to work, here was a day that I didn't have to go to work, so I better get a lot done.
Besides the...

I received this Tag from Aimeslee

You like to keep lists, so tell us the next 6 creative projects...

The Bachelor...
Well last night I had stamp club so I was not home for the beginning of Bachelor, which usually works out pretty good because then I can just fast forward through all the commercials, and some of what I think are the more boring parts!
I haven't been a fan of Nicky's from the beginning.  While she is beautiful, she has no personality and is pretty much stuck on how great she looks. ...

Its back to Monday after a quiet, but busy weekend.  I'm ready to get back to the structured week. And while I'm glad for what I got accomplished, there is always so much more to do!  So I will take this week and continue to finish things on my list.
Joel and I went out to a new restaurant in town on Saturday called the Corkscrew Saloon.  We have heard wonderful reviews of it, and tried to go...

Had a great day yesterday, in terms of getting things done and plan on continuing that today.  
We tried to go out to see Shawn race yesterday in Akron, but were unable to find parking in Akron!  Why they would close off streets and not have parking areas available is ridiculous!  Apparently they had several events going on at the same time.  Didn't anyone think of the parking situation?  So...

Today my nephew will run again in a competition for the first time since almost one year ago when he hurt his leg and found out he would need surgery!  To see him run is just a sight to be seen and I plan on going to see him today in a race in Akron. Hopefully I can get some good pictures of him?
Also today I have created a list of things I need to tackle.  Some much needed cleaning, scrapping...

I still don't have a PC which leaves me with no printer, and I'm not used to that.  My computer has a virus and I get to bring it home, remove what I want and take it back to have the entire thing wiped clean and begin again.  It will probably be a good thing, since I'm sure there is a lot of unnecessary things that have accumulated over the years, but the time alone it's going to take is not something...

Why is it I get sucked into this reality television?  For the most part I don't watch a lot of television.  In fact there are only a few shows I've enjoyed over the years.  Some which have ended too soon (Studio 60) and some that I have lost interest in from time to time (Grey's Anatomy).  Although right now I'm probably one of the few that is enjoying the Denny/Izzy storyline of Grey's.  And...

...so I finished  The Middle Place by Kelly Corrigan and I have to say from the moment I started reading this book it took me back to my teenage years and brought back memories from my own childhood.  Early on she talks about Wacky Packages stickers (like shot wheels and cap'n crud) I had notebooks covered in these humorous stickers, each one funnier than the next.  And also the T-shirts in which...

Yesterday Chelsea and I met my mother and went to see Marley and me.  I had read the book back when it came out and loved it, and I wasn't too sure I wanted to see the movie, since they never seem to be as good as the book.  But I thought it would be a good choice for my mom since she loves dogs.  Turned out the movie was good - true to the book, and my mom and I loved it.  Chelsea had already...
