Back to the grind stone

Since the last posting, Shane and Whitney arrived safely. They are lots of fun to be around. I started back to work on the fifth and we already had a holiday yesterday and a snow day today!
Snow days are nice, but they have to be made up. Ugh! So no holiday in February. Who cares. It is just nice to be back to the norm. We have been celebrating birthdays with lots of family activities and visits. Just what I love. Shane and Matt both have had a birthday. Next is Zack and Whitney in February.
Of course we are getting stuck to the t.v. during these winter months with "24" back on and American Idol. I love me some Jack Bauer. Until the contestants are chosen for A.I. I don't even bother to watch yet. That part is studid. They just need to have the people chosen and then start the show. The young people like the choosing but not me.
Last week I was driving home from work listening to the radio. The d.j. said he was going to have contest in a few minutes and get ready to call. Well me being the senior teenager that I am, I called. It was busy so I would hang up and call back. The next thing I know the d.j. answered. I about swallowed my teeth. The contests was for ticket to see The EAGLES that night in Charlotte. He asked me what was my favorite Eagles song then to sing a little of "Take it Easy." Well you know I did! I WON!!!!!!!!! It was 4:15 and it took me till almost 5:30 to get to West Columbia and pick up the tickets. I got home at 6 and Dennis at about 6:30. We left, got there, went to the restroom, and the show started. I have never in my life been to such a fantastic show. Unbeleivable! Like I have never seen. Those guys may have messed up political views, but they can flat play the guitar! Dennis and I haven't had that good a time in years!
Our little Zack is still the best thing around since chocolate! We enjoy all his surprise remarks and the love he gives each one of us. Blythe is still looking for a job, Matt received an award at work for being number one in his region and number 18 or 20 out of 2000 reps with Blackberry.
Pretty good, huh. Whitney job shadowed last week and began her new job at an endodontist office this week. She is a dental assistant. We are so happy for her. Other than that, we are all just back to our normal grind stone. Take care to all.
