Wishful thinking

As you can tell from the change in my blog template I am ready for spring to arrive. I am tired of the cold, frosty mornings. I am ready for more daylight hours as I get a bit on the down side when the sun doesn't shine much. I am ready to see the grass green up and the flowers start to poke their little heads out of the ground. But since it is still only February I know that I have some time to wait.

The sickies have hit our house. Both Tori and Will have sinus/upper respitory infections. So far Em and I have been lucky and haven't gotten it, and I hope I don't have to put yet on the end of that sentence! I took Tori to the doctor yesterday afternoon after she had to call into work for the second day and today I had to pick her up from school. She is feeling miserable. Will manage to get to the dr today too and get some medicine.

We broke down and bought us a new fridge. Our old one really isn't that old, we have only had it a couple of years but so far the compressor has gone out and from the sounds it is making sometimes it just isn't healthy. We picked up the new one on Saturday and currently there are 2 fridges in my kitchen. One still has stuff in it and needs to get cleaned out and cleaned up to try to sell it, and the other one was cooling down so that we can use it. Next on the appliance agenda is getting a new trash compactor. That is the only appliance that isn't stainless at this point, and I found one for around $600 that will fit right nicely. With the new lights we finally got installed and the new stuff we are right uptown. No that does not mean I will start cooking. It just means that it looks good!

We have started thinking about where we want to go on vacation this year. We will be going in October so we have some time to plan, but with all the new resorts that Festiva has gotten we have alot more choices and I am even thinking about Orlando. Do I need therapy?
