I sent Cole over to the neighbor's house with some cookies and a gas station gift card, to thank him for plowing our driveway yesterday.

My hero of the day....Steve!...our neighbor...he came over and snowblowed our whole driveway. And, then after the snowplow came by he came back and did it again. We really owe him, I think that I'm going to make him cookies and get him a gas station gift card. Yeah Steve!!!

We were out shoveling when this guy passed by & offered to plow out our driveway. We watched as he & his friend, following him in a pickup truck, stopped at other driveways up and down our street.

I just wanted to let whoever put these lottery tickets in the Christmas grab bag know the results. I took my time scratching them and just finished a couple weeks ago. I wasn't doing so good...3 free tickets, a $2 winner, a $5 winner and then on one of the last tickets that I scratched (the one that cost $10) I got a $100 winner!!! Thanks!

We're still having fun looking through bins of photos and other memorabilia that we're finding in the basement.

My latest obsession! Joe found them at the hospital when I had Gabriele for my late night snack! After leaving the hospital, I couldn't find them at any store! Joe finally found them at Jewel! You should try them!

I went in to brush my teeth this morning, but couldn't find the sink! Eventually, I hope that we will run out of balloons.

Entering sweepstakes for Tim. My Christmas present for the gift exchange was '3000 Sweepstakes Entries'. Not sure how many I've done so far, but he just won his first prize - a baseball cap & long-sleeved t-shirt from the movie 'Dilemma'.

Today I put on a badge workshop for Girl Scouts. Madi helped me load the car with supplies before we headed there to set up. She slipped on ice by the front step and fell and hit the back of her head. Nikki took her to the emergency room and she got 2 staples.

Annie's math teacher gave her and another girl some extra work to challenge themselves with over the weekend, just for fun. She started working on it on Friday evening. Allison & I were helping her, but she didn't really need all that much help.

Cole (being the student council treasurer) is helping count money that they have collected at school. The money is being donated towards childhood cancer. The class that earns the most money gets a lunch from Olive Garden. Cole's class has the lead pretty much locked in.

Picking up forgotten homework, in the early evening, in his deserted classroom in his almost deserted school. I'm glad someone was there to let us in when we got there.

These two flowers blossomed on one of my plants in my kitchen window today. Makes me think of Amanda and Jazmine.

When Shelby got in the car after school, today, he took this out of his backpack to show to me right away. He said that he drew it during math class, when he was bored because they were talking about lines, again. I like his doodles - he gets so goofy & creative in them.

The flowers that some parents gave me during the spelling bees are still looking so pretty, almost two weeks later!
