All is quiet here but very very cold.  It&#39;s so nice of the midwest to share it weather with us but really, don&#39;t do us any more favors.   lol    Where is spring?   (far far away I&#39;m afraid)<br /><br />Jim has a mandatory meeting after work today (even those off this week must attend) and the inside talk is that this is the &quot;beginning of the end&quot;   and they will finally get a date when their jobs will end.   Deb didn&#39;t confirm that but she sure didn&#39;t deny it either.   We will see.   We do know that the plans to replace Jim&#39;s car and one other have been scrapped.<br /><br />Deb - you have a lovely home and the picture of all the snow is beautiful but I&#39;m sure you are tired of it.   How great that you still live in the home you grew up in.    I&#39;m sure the house holds many memories for you.<br /><br />Tonia - somehow I missed your last post.  I&#39;m sorry they are changing your shift and you will be taking a pay cut but you are right - at least you have a job.    You have been on the night shift for so long it will be quite an adjustment changing times but hopefully now you will have more time to visit CruiseCrazies.<br /><br />Cheryl - have fun with Scotty today.   I&#39;m sure you will find a way to keep him amused til his Dad gets home.     That&#39;s a great picture of Greg on his ATV.<br /><br />Ed - you certainly had a busy day.  However did you find time to work?   lol    Good luck at your meeting with AARP today.<br /><br />Carmen - how did DH find his family or did they find him?    I&#39;m sure it will be a wonderful reunion for everyone.<br /><br />Time to get some laundry going.   Deb&#39;s machine is broken so Michael is coming over to do laundry later on and I have some towels that need to be done first.    Then he can have the washer and I&#39;m getting out of the house so he does the laundry - not me.    I can be mean when I want to.   hehe<br /><br />Hope everyone has a good day and stays warm and safe.    I&#39;ll check back later.<br /><br />
