Not much going on today. Pretty slow again at work, which is nice. It's still cool and a little damp out tonight but at least the wind has died down for now. I think tomorrow's supposed to be cold and drizzly again though, and then warm up a little bit by the weekend. Dunno for sure.

TK was awake when I got home this morning so I hung out with him for a while. Helped him sort through some more of his Lego stuff and did a little schoolwork with him. Went to bed around 11:00 or so and got up at 8:00. We still had leftover chicken so I didn't worry about cooking dinner. And now I'm at work. Soooo exciting, lol.

Noms for the day: Nope.

Song: KFaceTV - Talk Nerdy To Me. I love this :-) It's a parody of Jason Derulo's Talk Dirty To Me.

Best thing: Saw my cop buddy last night :-)

Worst thing: Just kinda eh again :-(

Eh.

Monday night, back at work. It's not quite as cold tonight as it has been but it's damp and windy so being outside for too long isn't super fun. Luckily though it's pretty slow here at work so I can kinda hang out inside for the most part.

So let's see. Stopped by Starbucks on the way home Friday morning for some coffee. Yay for gift cards, lol. Woke TK up when I got home and we went to take care of the kitties. Finished up there then stopped by Target to look at toys and pick up a couple of grocery type things. Got home and played a little GTA V then helped TK with some of his schoolwork. TH got home and we made frozen pizzas for dinner and watched Predator for movie night. He went on to bed and TK and I stayed up pretty late playing. There was a Winter Storm Advisory most of the afternoon and overnight but it never really did anything serious in our part of town. It was cold and we got a little bit of sleet but nothing really stuck. They did go ahead and pretreat some of the overpasses, and there were a few wrecks overnight because of icy roads so I'm glad I didn't end up driving. Plus I was tired, lol.

Thursday night! Cold tonight but not nearly as bad as it was last night. When I left work this morning it was 22 with a wind chill of 16. That's...a little cool, lol. It didn't help either that one of my cop buddies came by and I stood outside for almost an hour talking to him. It was a while before I could feel my toes again :-/ They're still calling for a slight chance of icy shit in the morning, and then better chances for Friday night and Saturday night. So I guess we'll see what happens. On the bright side though it has been pretty freaking slow at work tonight. So that's something :-)

So I got home this morning and TK was asleep. Chatted with TH at work for a little bit, played a little COD by myself, then went to bed. Got up and helped TK with his schoolwork, hung out with TH after he got home, made fish and veggies for dinner, then played a little GTA V with TK until time to come to work. Yay, lol.

January 7

Well, I'm tired tonight but not nearly as bad as I thought I was going to be. I woke up wayyyy too early, lol. Not horribly busy at work, which is nice. It's kinda seriously cold out here tonight though. Right now it's 29 with a wind chill of 19. They're calling for a low of like 24 by morning, with wind chills in the low to mid teens. Oh, and it's still windy as shit. So that's awesome :-/

So let's see. TK was asleep when I got home so I chatted with TH at work for a while then went on to bed. Woke up around 11:30 and TK and I went to Home Depot to get the stuff for the shelves for his room. They didn't have everything we needed in stock but we got what we could. We also went by Walmart and found a couple more posters for the game room :-) Got home and hung out for a while then made veggie burgers and fries for dinner. Oh, and some hummus. Because nom :-) TH stopped by another Home Depot on his way home to pick up the rest of the shelf stuff. So now we have everything! Ate dinner and hung out with TH for a while then tried to take another quick nap before work. It...kinda sorta worked, lol.

Noms for the day: MFP :-)

Song: Royal Blood - Figure It Out. A new one!

Best thing: Finally found the Halo poster we've been looking for!

Worst thing: I just knocked over an almost full cup of coffee on the desk. It didn't quite get to my laptop though, so at least there's that...

Hooray.

January 6

Not much going on today. Still not as busy at work, which is always nice. Not quite as cold tonight but they're calling for a "polar cold front" to blow through sometime tomorrow. So tomorrow night will be windy and colder than shit. Awesome, lol. Oh, and we have a private security company in here doing 24 hour surveillance on a resident's house because her ex husband threatened to take their kids overseas. So...yeah. That's exciting :-/

So let's see. Got home this morning and TK was asleep so I chatted with TH at work then went to bed kinda early. Woke up around 1:00 or so and hung out with TK for a while, then made biscuits and potato soup stuff for dinner. I added shredded cheese and garlic to the biscuits and some chopped cauliflower, bell peppers and onion, and diced leftover ham to the soup. It was seriously nom :-) Ate dinner then hung out with TH for a little bit, took another quick nap, and now I'm at work. I'm thinking about stopping by Home Depot in the morning to get some of the stuff we need to build the shelves in TK's room. Not sure yet, though.

Noms for the day: MFP!

Song: Rage Against The Machine - Bulls On Parade. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Yay for tracking! And no alcohol :-)

Worst thing: Feet hurt, kinda.

Woohoo.

January 5

Monday night, back at work. Yay. And since yesterday was my birthday, I'm a year older than I was last week. Double yay, lol. It's cold out tonight but not too bad. The college kids are still in town but high school started back today so it's a little slower than it has been. I'm just glad that all of the holiday shit is over with so everything can go back to normal for a while.

So let's see. Got home Friday morning and TK was asleep so I took a quick nap. Got up around 8:30 and we went to take care of the kitties. Finished up there then stopped by Walmart for a couple of things. Got home and played a little GTA V then started cleaning up TK's room. Holy crap was his room horrible. He had kinda cleaned it up a while back but there was still a ton of stuff under the bed, and his closet was a nightmare. I guess the biggest problem was that when we moved in he had a bunch of shit just kinda crammed in boxes and it never really got unpacked properly, so it basically just all went to shit. So we bought some storage totes at Walmart to organize things and I told him I would help him get his shit together. Talk about fun, lol. So we worked on his room until after TH got home (he had to work late again), then we decided to order pizza for dinner. Nom :-) Hung out with TH for a little while, watched an episode of Chuck for movie night, then went on to bed kinda early. It stormed for a little while overnight but nothing serious. So that was cool :-)

January 1

Okey dokeys then. Holy crap it is soooooo much better at work tonight!! Still kinda busy but nothing like the epic clusterfuckedness that was last night. So that's good :-) It never did ice or anything though. It was cold most of the day yesterday and the rain started this morning around 2:00 am or so. It's pretty much been like that all day today. I think it's supposed to be a little warmer tomorrow but there's still a decent chance of rain early in the day. Or something like that, lol.

So let's see. Not really much going on the last couple of days. Wednesday morning I got home and TK was asleep so I chatted with TH at work for a while then went to bed kinda early. Got up before TH got home and played a little GTA V with TK for a while. Hung out with TH after he got home then took another quick nap. And then went to work. And holy fucking shit it was busy :-/
