Valentines Day

I took the day off. I have cramps, a headache and I didn't sleep last night. We had a horrible ice storm last night & I just didn't have it in me to scrape 6 inches of ice off of my car, struggle to get to work, work short staffed, probably be forced to stay an extra shift then struggle to get back home. Normally I bite the bullet. Not today, sorry.

I've been thinking about buying a new house. I'm not exactly sure what I want to buy or if I even want to buy but I've been looking at what's listed and driving by some of those places. I've lived in this house for 16 years. I bought my husband out after the divorce and stayed here thinking it was best for the kids..........and I still think it was the best thing to do......but time heals and people/needs change and now I'm thinking I might like something different. I live in a brick cape cod...it was built in the late 40's/early 50's. We originally looked at the house in the fall and I fell in love with the mature trees on the hill behind our backyard and with the big old maple tree IN our backyard. The colors were so pretty. I remember thinking how much fun the boys would have climbing those trees and playing in the woods behind the house. I also remember liking that our street deadends and so a kidknapper would be less likely to grab one of the kids knowing he'd have only 1 route of escape. So anyway, I've been keeping my eyes and options open.......we'll see.
