I am happy because the kids are out of school again today - which means no packing lunches or checking backpacks or monitoring homework for me! I should have been a homeschooling mom - I hate the drill of sending them off everyday.

Hi Holly...my son is off again today too, snow yesterday, ice today. Homework monitoring bites, agreed. I'm happy today because it is beautiful outside (think Ansel Adams), a cat on my lap, a hot cup of java, and a good book (Double Feature 1/2 way through), and a load of laundry in the washer.
Woke-up to no back pain, the snow is melting, and I'm making sweet sausage and rice! 
Are you making the rice Spanish rice? How are you making that dish?Woke-up to no back pain, the snow is melting, and I'm making sweet sausage and rice!
Oh, just a simple affair - Good quailty sweet Italian sausage, onions, and bell peppers nice and browned, a blob or three of homemade marinara, then toss with some cooked rice and simmer away for a bit. Don't forget the buttered crusty bread and sour cream!
To dash good luck on your interview.
Jo Jo enjoy your time off.
Holly sons off 2 days here from school as well. The ice is horriable.

I'm overjoyed today for my sister Sarah and her husband Tony, because they are adopting these two little girls! The girls are named Anna and Nia, age 5 1/2 and 3 1/2, and they have beautiful smiles so they'll fit right in with their new parents! The adoption becomes finalized in April. Welcome to the family, little ones!

@Agincourt Concierge Happy house hunting. Hope you get the one your heart desires. Much happiness for you both!

They are half-sisters from North Carolina. My sister and her husband live in Charlotte so they didn't have to go far! Luckily too the girls are healthy and have no mental or emotional problems. (Sadly, a lot of children in the adoption system are not as lucky.) I just can't wait to meet these two! I'm hoping they can make it to our Memorial Day picnic!
They look so sweet! It really warms my heart when I hear stories of children being adopted into warm, loving homes.
That is just awesome. they are adorable.
