V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N.....aaaaah

Yes, it is finally here...."SPRING" vacation. But where the heck did the SPRING part go??? Another storm is brewing and this one worse than the one two days ago! Just where IS this global warming Al Gore is rambling on about???!!! haha

My plans this year are definitely NOT as good as they have been in years past...no trips to sunny Florida, South Carolina, or St. Maarten (although I am headed there next Feb.). I was hoping to get some (cough cough) yard work done, but looks like that yard work will be in the form of snow blowing! Perhaps after this one blows through, that warmer weather will arrive...one can only hope. So....at this point I am looking forward to some house cleaning instead...DOUBLE YUCK!

I did ask Super Sib #2 if we could escape for a couple of days to her place, and she most kindly obliged (Thank you Deed). Leave me a train schedule for the one leaving up the street so we can take that into Boston perhaps....and/or the directions to the one in Revere even. Perhaps I will get "daring" and actually drive into the city! Either way, it HAS to be warmer than it is here, and you said you don't have the snow...Fenway sure looks good and green!

I have to say, I was chuckling when I heard that Super Niece #1 had snow too down in DC the other day....you can kiss those cherry blossoms goodbye Caroline!! haha BTW, am sporting the tshirt you sent me this morning....LOVE IT!

Jr. calls me last night while I am out dining with the gang...tells me 'Mom, I have a problem'...a mother's worst nightmare, right? NO! He goes on to explain that something is wrong with his new bass guitar and/or the amp. or something....ok, first of all, HOW IS THIS MY PROBLEM??
'Mom, I was just telling you....you don't have to go parts for it NOW!' was his response. Uh, Kyle, I don't have to go get parts for it EVER if I miss my guess....YOU DO! So, I hung up and ate my delicious steak and salad with zero guilt. He is a piece of work sometimes, but I love him anyways! Did not love his latest report card however......mostly great, but two very low grades for someone of his intellect....or "supposed" intellect. He will put his nose to the grindstone til June now....Bass Guitar be-damned!

Ok...so I have to also make a trip to see "the mother" this week too....HAVE TO. Been since Christmas (sorry Gretchen...) and I must experience this latest mind slippage myself. Has she mentioned to anyone else that she is going to Italy(?) I believe she told me???? Hmmmm

Ok....off to do SOMETHING today....not sure what. May take in a movie tonight...perhaps the one Andy worked on "Wild Hogs"...it got funny reviews, and he said it was good.

Ciao for Niao!
