Ok, in Chicago, we just got about 8-10 inches of snow friday, then about 5 more yesterday.

Its still February, and we have AT LEAST one more month of winter.

I have been living in a cave, living off of my own body fat, sleeping.....actually more of a dormant-like state.

But that being said....with the recent tweet from our favorite Kat.....I will be coing out of my hibernation and spending more time here waiting for some announcements.



So, I am definitely looking forward to the spring and summer, regardless of PJ's plans.

Dont get me wrong, I LOVE winter. I LOVE the snow and cold.

But right around February 15-20 I start to get a little edgy. I cant wait to start running again. Hopefully some shows, hopefully some other fun stuff awaits me this year.

What are you looking forward to once the deep freeze of winter is over?

  • Chicago is getting hit again tomorrow night, they said possibly another 10 inches..

    ughhh makes me so sad! I keep digging my poor car out for no reason it seems!

    Oh, and I am looking forward to not having A/C and sweating my ass off, instead of being freezing..

    sorry I am having a debbie downer moment.

    No matter how cold the winter.....there is a blazing hot summer ahead, eh?

    Wow, I didnt realize we were getting another snowstorm.

    M, I kid you not, I am going insane! My boss doesn't let me take prestyn outside of the house because its "cold"... Oh my god, its been like 3 months since I have seen outside of their house. Its driving me up the F-ING wall. Not to mention she went on some weird ass power trip and is being SUPER weird. Oh, and now prestyn is all clingy to her after the aruba trip and he won't go to anyone but her.. and if he cant see her, he cries, and she is there all day, so he cries and cries and she comes running and she spends all day with him and I sit there like a total moron. Now she is taking him to gymboree twice a week and told me I could wait at home because she wanted to go with him.. WHAT IS THE POINT of me being there?!?!

    arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
  • It might rain a little...around us.

    but it was windy and sunny.

    so I think if it does rain it wont do so for long.

    our birds tweet all the time. :)

    That bloody sucks!! I didn't want to work for an "at-home" mom for that exact reason. Is she the kind of person that's easy to talk to?? Could you tell her maybe that you need to spend more one-on-one time with him so he stops freaking out on you? I'm sorry to hear that mom is acting weird...ugh...time for a new job???

    I think next time they go on vacation they need to take you with. ;)

    Isn't it like 2 degrees there? I wouldn't want to be out in that...let alone bring a baby outside.

    hahaha oh my god.. don't remind me!

    And, M,.. she works, but she works from home.. only she is always there, and she just hangs out with us. I'm like.. please kill me. When I was hired, its in my contracts that she might be home once in a while.. too bad thats every day!

    I understand and HIGHLY condone parents being with their children, thats awesome. I've worked for people who have written their children off to me.. BUTTTTTT.. why pay someone as much as I make to sit around and watch you play with your child? I would NEVER be able to spend that kind of money and not use it. Its a huge waste. And I feel useless. I could really use my teaching skills somewhere and I am beginning to feel very unused and bored. I think I'd like to work with slightly older children. This position is not challenging me in the slightest.

    Vedd, I'm sorry to have gotten off topic. I look forward to up coming chances to advance my career, and school starting in the fall :)

    Take care of 3 kids under the age of 4....that'll challenge the hell out of you.

    Ok, sorry for hijacking...back to the glories of Spring.

    OK, I know I don't exactly live in cold weather so I really can't talk...but if he was 8 years old, I'd say wrap that kid up and have a snowball fight. 8 months...not so much.

    Hey! :)

    I never experience snow during winter (at least not normally), but I am waiting to hear for the news from Kat!!
    y la banda de Guille... cuando toca?
  • It IS crazy. It's supposed to be 50 today. A few weeks ago we hit 70. SOOOO unnatural. I feel bad for the resort towns near by who depend on winter for money. CNY is supposed to be covered in snow.

    But I totally dig it!
