Twins: If you don't tend to get dental issues, could this be a sinus infection that is pushing on a dental nerve? That happened to dh once.
I finished the presentation I need to make next week. I sent a copy to the minister for her input after dh watched it and gave me his. It is 11 minutes long, and doesn't cover everything because we don't have cover everything this first time, only enough to know if we want to learn more and then vote, or just not vote.
I've done absolutely nothing else all day. I'm actually ashamed of that.
Dh walked to the store for the mail but I didn't want to go because of the ice (he said it wasn't too bad.)
Dh also cooked dinner (and tomorrow's dinner at the same time.)
He's watching a movie now so I'll clean up. I missed Big Bang Theory but figured that could wait until it gets posted on our network's website. Or more accurately, if it gets posted on our network's website. They sometimes don't post them. Very annoying.

Harriet thanks for that recommendation. Thought of you when I was watching "big bang theory" last night lead in before the beginning of the Oscar's. After the Betty White line I changed it.
Rested after dgd went home at four I'm going to have to keep a pen and some thing to take notes with when Dr. Oz. is on.
clean tub
sweep kit. dining room & hallway
vacuum living room
nap
dinner
read a chapter
All done! Yea!
BS is back down in my new target range now yea!
My back / hip was hurting so I dosed off after the weather on the couch before dinner.

There's nothing new going on here in Sunnyland. I just wanted to say "hi" to everyone.
I've had a nice restful week....I told dh last weekend that I was going into hibernation this week!

I'm not one to want to be out of the house every day just to "get out of the house". I haven't been out all week except to go to the mailbox. Tomorrow is errand day; can't be put off.
All those experiencing cold, snowy weather --- stay safe and warm.
Oranges...our orange tree is loaded this year. I'd love to share them with everyone if I could. Dh picked a bagful yesterday and there's lots more still on the tree. I don't know what kind they are, but they are very sweet this year.
Time to say good night --- sweet dreams, all.

Getting ready to hit the hay.
Didn't get as much done as I wanted but had a bit of "tummy troubles" today.
I did get a good start on a big stock pot of turkey noodle soup and have beans cooking overnight for ham and bean soup.
I have two totes of kitchen stuff and food ready to take to the MH plus one tote of clothes.
Tomorrow I will take them out and put them away and see what else I have to take.
Saturday morning I will pack up all the electronics which will ride on the bed.
I fighting with the repair service to get a final bill for the window repair in the 5th wheel so I can close that chapter with the insurance company. He keeps having estimated amounts and I want final amounts. He also logged in my down payment as $13 less than I gave him. Glad I have canceled checks.
Headed to bed now.

Hello to everyone!
COLD... COLD... COLD here... * brrrr *
Predicted low of 24, with wind chills in the teens tonight.
I don't have to make myself happy tonight, though -- got that automated phone call: "School will be delayed two hours tomorrow." Yippee!
This is the kind of thing that just makes my Yankee ddil LOL... when we dismiss or delay school for "nothing!" And it IS nothing, as far as I can see... but outlying areas in the school district reportedly have icy roads tonight. I'm not one to question a good thing. Two more hours in bed in the morning... no make-up day... yep... I can deal with that.
I've found yet another "crazy mom" show. I've been watching Dance Moms tonight. Amazing. I don't THINK dniece's dance instructor is quite as crazy as Miss Abby on the show. Goodness, I hope not. I cannot imagine why these people put their children through all this. OTOH... in the interest of full disclosure... we allowed ds to play for a coach that was an even bigger nut than Miss Abby once... so who am I to judge?

Of course, ds was in high school -- he was NOT 8 years old at the time he was having to deal with the nut.
I've also been grading papers tonight... and I did 15 min. "walk away the pounds"... and had a really, REALLY wonderful time taking a nap under my blanket while dh was checking on dinlaws. Hope I can sleep that well tonight. Also talked to dparents. Ddad started 2nd round of chemo today and everything is going fine. If dmom could get some relief from back pain, things might be looking up around there.
Hope YOU are able to sleep tonight, (((
Twins))), and I hope you get some relief ASAP when the rooster crows at the break of dawn...
Waving to ALL, but too far behind to try to post replies to all. Good night, everyone!

It is still snowing and so pretty. They are still plowing. We have a big campus so there is a lot to plow.
I didn't get much snow watching time or knitting time. Today became a people day. Lots and lots of conversations.
