Just hanging out on a Tuesday.

   I don't really have that much to talk about today, but I have some computer time and if I go out to the car, I'll just eat more than I mean to( a box of snack crackers and some cookies) and I've been doing pretty well keeping my eating habits a little healthier.  I've discovered that I love vegetable juice(like V-8), it's like a Bloody Mary without the vodka, which I don't really like anyway, but a little sea salt and fresh ground pepper, stirred, chilled with a few ice cubes.  Yummy.  I can buy the big bottle, no one else in the house will go near it.  I've always liked tomato juice, don't know why I didn't try the veggie juice before. 

   We had freezing rain on Sunday.  I went to work at a client's home at 6:30 am and two hours later came out to find ice covering my whole car.  We got about 1/4 inch of ice total, but it was enough to create problems.  It got up past 32 degrees, so was just rain after that, but the side roads that are snow covered turned to ice skating rinks.  I had to call and cancel my 4-7 shift, they said their road and driveway was all ice, I'd never make it up the hill. 

   I watched the Daytona 500 instead.  Ryan Newman won!  The guy that they hardly talked about at all, for the most part just stayed in the race and minded his own business till the last couple laps, then his teammate Kurt Busch pushed him past Tony Stewart for the win!!!  I only get to watch once in awhile as I almost always work on Sunday afternoons, so I really enjoyed this. 

   I've been working on a quilt design for Son, without much luck so far.  I can't seem to make up my mind, find the right combination of blocks that will accept the multiple color combinations of a scrap quilt. There are lots of design possibilities, though, so just have to keep trying.  I've got lots of time for this, so I'm not too concerned.

   My chest congestion is gone.  I found out that there's been alot of people with the same kind of flu virus, the local schools have been hit hard.  They're trying not to close because of this as they have to save their 5 calamity days for snow, and however many more they miss, they have to make up and add to the end of the school year. 

    I had to have a tire replaced on the front driver's side of my car, yesterday.  I walked out to leave for work and noticed that there were some little slits on the side, right next to the tread edge.  These are over 4 years old, so it's time for different ones.

   That's about it for my exciting life, so far this week.  Ya never know, it's Tuesday and thngs could liven up by the end of the week, or not...........
