It looks and sounds good. I have an appointment to give two massages Friday morning. I think if they like my work I'll take the job. If something better comes along I may give it back but it seems like a good place to start.” 8:57:25 AM 3/15/06 “Sounds positive, Sass! More good things are coming your way, I know it! I have just over 4 weeks left of student teaching. I'm ready for it to be over! Working on my portfolio for my final graduation requirement. (Except for the one quick class I have to take this summer.) My parents basement flooded again. THey had 11" of snow, and got 4" of rain on top of that. Needless to say, the entire area is soggy and many people have water problems. Worst thing is they're in FL and the house is in MI. My sister is headed there on Friday, and I might be as well. HOpefully the flowing water into the house will subside by then.” 4:13:28 PM 3/15/06 “Snowing again...any doubts I may have had about being able to use my new x-country skiis this week-end are gone...forcast another 3-7 inches on top of Monday's foot...going to work is going to be a b**ch this morning...the roads will be slippery and crowded with SUVs flying by...I'll probably see the usual one or two in the ditches and I drive less than 2 miles to work...they hate me...my car performs horribly in snow after it's been churned up by wider wheel-based vehicles...so I really poke along at 35mph max...even at that speed I've done 360's when trying to slow down at the bottom of a hill in someones slushy wake...and that's downshifting!” 4:50:08 AM 3/16/06 “might get up to 9" here but has not started yet” 5:24:34 AM 3/16/06 “Good Morning hugs....52 degrees and not too bad outside....in the 70s today.......partly cloudy....and possible showers.....we need rain.....we are about 7" under normal...and we have brush fires....I guess yesterday they had a "controlled burn" that got out of control (go figure) and was burning badly and getting close to some homes....sheesh...why would you have a controlled burn when there is a burn ban???.....” 5:47:03 AM 3/16/06 “We're due 1-3 after lunch. Not enough to get happy about. I never got to use my skis this year, or snowshoes. =( My poor tulips and daffodils will be shivering today.” 5:47:17 AM 3/16/06 “My email is not working arrgh, morning sunshine” 5:52:23 AM 3/16/06 “Sass.....how did it go yesterday????????” 6:03:17 AM 3/16/06 “Really well.

Time to start running around doing all my errands this morning. I need to get more prescription cat food from the vet this morning, and finish cleaning my mother's effing house. Her house isn't big, 2500 sf, but the way it's laid out it's pain in the keister to clean and maintain. The fun part for her is my dad has officially started the retirement process so he's started doing things around the house. Not finishing any of them, but starting them.” 6:54:16 AM 3/16/06 “Good morning....yawwwwn....” 6:55:16 AM 3/16/06 GOOD MORNING !! “Sunshine today.

I was up and in the litchen at 6, only to look out back and see a bloody big blue heron looming over my koi pond. I ran out to chase it off and it just looked at me. I had to walk within a few feet of it to get it to fly away. It had no fear of me. Of course it was as tall as I am too. All fish accounted ofr so far as I can tell. Grrr. HPM is now on his way to Pisgah NF for his annual spring break trip with our Scout troop. I know where they are going but I have no idea as to the ezact itinerary. The man in charge of this trip never picked an effing route. Oh fun.” 6:16:14 AM 3/18/06 “treebait...we use big, lightweight plastic screening to keep deer from our garden...it's almost invisible...would this work for your fish until they get too big for herons? http://www.gardeners.com/Lightweight-Deer-Fence/default/StandardCatalog.YardPests_FencesBarriers.11331.cpd koi are so cool http://www.keirinponds.com/ Herons are fearless...I watched one watch an alligator stalk it for an hour...I think it was playing with the reptile....
