March...

Well, today is March 3rd and it is your typical Monday. Oh, except that it has been raining hard which made it difficult to sleep keeping me up all night. It also caused our power to go out sometime between 3:30am and 6:15am when the girls finally got me up along with Hunter who came in and said someone forgot to turn on his light, meaning his night light. Power finally came back on around 6:30am or so. Getting up late put us leaving late, getting Tyler to school on time, barely and then Hunter to school and me late to work. Oh well. The weather is saying that the rain will be turning over to snow this afternoon and also this evening. So maybe, just maybe I will get to see snow this season. I was beginning to think I missed the snow for the season since we were in Altamonte Springs for Thanksgiving. Marti is saying it will be my fault for the snow since I was complaining. LOL.

Brien is starting to think that there ought to be a Rock Band Anonymous group for us addicts, meaning Marti and I. LOL. We play every weekend and I must say we are getting better all the time. She plays bass guitar while I play on the drums. Some songs are easy while others prove most challenging. This past Friday night while we were over, Marti and I played for a couple of hours while the guys played pool. We were playing songs mostly on medium level. By the end of the night I just had to try my luck on the hard level. So, I tried Metallica's "Enter Sandman" and even though I came close to failing somehow I managed to survive the entire song scoring 86%. Then we all thought it would be funny if I tried expert on the same song. Once again, I survived the entire song even though I came close to failing several times. I scored an 86% again. I was very proud of myself. Then Saturday, while the guys were working on pulling out the truck engine on James' truck, Marti and I played again. I tried that same song on hard level and this time scored 90%. Rock Band makes for a great stress relief.

The kids are doing great and are looking forward to Moo-Moo and Pop-Pop coming out in a month. They will be here late Tuesday, April 1st through early Sunday, April 6th. We are looking forward to their visit. I think my parents are still planning on coming out the first part of May especially since I will be graduating and I do plan on walking. I have worked very hard for this and I want to enjoy it.

That's it for now.
