I don't do the whole Lent thing but I thought the whole point of it was to give up something important to you??!!!!!! It isn't suffering if you give up something you can take or leave...........!!

Yes, that is the point - it is supposed to something you love so it is supposed to be hard! I'm giving up coffee this year . . . Mouse and Palmer do not know what is in store for them :grin:

Good morning, MMC!

It is snowing - the kind of snow that I call Christmas shopping snow - big, fat flakes that melt on contact with the ground. My favorite kind!!!

Have a most MERRY day!!!

NO!!!!! I'm not THAT much of a saint! I can barely stand to give up sweets for 40 days.
 
Hey, if you haven't seen a Mardi Gras parade and would like to, you can watch the parade cam at NOLA.com. The cam's resolution isn't that great, but it's fun to watch the floats. I've been looking at it while I eat lunch.

Happy Shrove Tuesday, all!
 
LOL
here is picture of what the top of my desk looks like...

Nothing wrong with that. I think there is still a mini Christmas sock hanging somewhere around our office here!
 
Good Tuesday afternoon, my Christmas friends!

We had a great trip to the mountains this past weekend! We relaxed, mostly, but we did get out to ride around some. We crossed the mountain into TN, but it was so crowded over there, we came right back to NC. We finally got some snow Sunday night, but not enough to stick at our elevation, so we drove up a tall mountain road till we found enough snow for the kids to play in.

I hope every else had a good weekend, too! This weekend is Bernie's 75th Birthday Bash. It should be a blast!

I heop y'all have a great day! cheesy
 
just checking in at lunch! Today is kind of just drrrraggggin for me..I almost wish it was busy like yesterday..I know be careful what I wish for. I have some paperwork I could do that has to be done by the 29th.lol paperwork always makes the day go by quicker...tonight we are going to see a movie with our houseguests.(not sure which one though)and we are going to eat at this Italian restaurant that is very very good. Well that is all for now...have a great midday everyone!

Great you had a good weekend. nice to get a break !!
And another great weekend to look forward to.
 
Good afternoon, everyone!

Has it really been that long? It appears that I have been MIA since Thursday. My apologies. Where have I been? Around... Not too busy, but just a little. Kim and I had an enjoyable weekend. To say that I was sore/exhausted afterward would be an understatement. I finally returned to doing heavy weights on Saturday. It felt nice to lift without any pain. Then, we had our 4 on 4 league at night. Sunday I had to complete an assignment, then I had flag football in the evening. My legs were exhausted. They are not used to running anymore. I need to bring sprints back into my training.

I hope everyone has been enjoying themselves, especially those that had Family Day (Canada) and President's Day yesterday. As a federal government employee, I had neither. We had Remembrance Day (Veterans' Day) off in November. Oh well, at least I am working and getting paid.

Not much happening today. After resting yesterday, I will be returning to the gym after work today... Hmm. What else...?

The weather is a little warm for this time of year... As it has been all "winter." In fact, we should be above freezing for the next few days. It will dip below for less than a week and then the warm weather will return. It is already feeling like mid-March in Ottawa. We will see if this pattern holds. Perhaps, mid-March could feel like mid-April? There are no more outdoor rinks, so I have no outdoor activities to look forward to. With that, I'll take the mid-April weather as soon as possible!

Have a great Tuesday, everyone! Hope all is well.
