mam and maddie blog....

Yesterday was weird. No one at work felt the earthquake. Nobody. But it made the news so I am not crazy. lol! I had a good day yesterday! I felt good at work....more confident and myself. Oh, the girls stayed on the other side of the room talking and whispering and stuff.... but I can't let that bother me. I just can't. It isn't going to change so I need to change how I react to the situation.

Maddie wants to write on my blog.

"My new word that I learned at school is we and to. I can spell them and read them. I know both.I woke up early this morning at mams. And I was watching TV and had some sugar toast. Sugar toast is not healthy but it is good. Know why sugar toast is not healthy? Cuz it has sugar on it. I got hit in the head by a Frisbee at school. Angela did it and she is smaller than me. I wasn't mad. It was kind of my fault cuz I looked back and it kind of flied into my head. Last night Lauren and I had fun. We jumped on the bed, we played monopoly but I just pay her money. I'm done. Goodbye and da do de o so." (that's maddie talk)

Well.... that was entertaining. Had some kids over last night as you can see. Had a good time with them. Andrew and I stayed up until after 11. The rest went to bed around 10. Lauren was having so much fun jumping on the bed and then just shut down. She does that. When she is done.... she is done. Too funny. You can tell by the pictures. And then there is Dylan. I don't know why Punkin' loves him so much. I guess because he is gentle with her.... doesn't overdo it with affection and stops when she wants him to... and he doesn't pick her up. She hates that. Every time he is here she finds his lap.

Toby was thrilled too.... Sandy girl came to spend the night! Ryan brought her over and when they walked in the dogs both flipped out! We had to put them outside right away so they could run around and be happy! They really love playing! Maddie is trying to teach Sandy tricks right now. lol! The rest are still sleeping at almost 7.

Well.... I am done, too. Hope your day is great and your weekend is long!

What's Ahead:
Showers will be sticking around for most areas Saturday morning, then tapering off in the afternoon. As we get into the afternoon, most areas will dry out with a few sunbreaks. Highs will range from near 40 in the zone to low 40s elsewhere.

We all dry out Saturday night, and that'll lead to areas of fog Sunday morning. The fog should burn off leaving midday sunbreaks, but clouds increase in the afternoon, followed by rain developing in the late afternoon and evening. Highs will stay in the low-mid 40s.

That rain should be through by Sunday night, leaving us with a nice little dry streak here Monday through Wednesday. Each day will feature morning fog, then clearing with highs around 50.

Rain returns on Thursday, then showers for Friday. Long range forecasts hint at perhaps a little cooler weather for the following week, but nothing too scary at this point.
