Beautiful Tuesday...

Well, today is Tuesday and what a glorious Tuesday it is! It is the last day of January in Wisconsin and normally about this time of year we are facing snowstorms, cold, ice, and severe cabin fever! Instead it is a balmy 50 degrees, the sun is shining and spirits are rejoicing! I took a 30 minute walk today and feel just sublime! It has been an incredibly mild winter with a rare day below 0. I think we have less than 5 snows all winter and those were all after 1 January! It is hard to believe that tomorrow is already the 1st of February. Me thinks it will be a very short winter indeed!

Nothing much going on today. It's just a day as Jess likes to say. No big goings on and no big issues, just a by-the-book, nothing spectacular, every day occurrence type of day! And there is nothing wrong with that. We kind of like smooth sailing at our house! :)

Tonight is homework and housework night at my house. Which usually means pizza, chips and soda for dinner. Healthy, I know! But some nights you just have to do that. My 16 yo son has to play for pep band and his best friend will be over after school to take him and bring him  home. That means 2 teenage boys in the house for dinner. Pizza always works! I think I need to get stock in Tombstone or Jack's or Roma or something!
My 10 (almost 11) yo daughter wants to make cookies tonight to take to school tomorrow for her birthday! Ugh, more mess in the house! As for me I will be working on my research paper for school. I feel like I am already behind and it is only the 3rd week of the semester! Whoops!

Jess is busy at a conference for work this week. She will be gone from today until Friday. With her pending retirement I thought she would be done with those, but I guess not. Well, soon enough. Her last day in the Guard is 29 Feb.

Well, like I said, it isn't much of a day, but at least it is beautiful and it is mine...a day in the life of Claire...
