    There is not a whole lot going on.  I was very sad to see the Packers lose their conference game to the Giants.  It looked like the Giants wanted it more than the Packers.  I think Bret Favre will retire this year...I hope he does.  He should go out on a good year.  What a career he has had.
     
    On the homefront, my husband has been very sick the past three days.  I took him to the doctor yesterday morning and he definitely has the flu.  I didn't know there was a definitive test for the flu...but there is.  The doctor said it will last 7-10 days.  My husband has been off work the whole week...he hardly ever misses work, it is driving him crazy.  His temperature keeps fluctuating.  A lot of sweaty sheets.  I hope I don't catch it.
     
    Well our Saturn has finallly gasped it's last breath.  We donated it to a local foundation.  It is pretty good timing actually, my husbands grandparents would like to give us their 1995 Buick LeSabre.  The only catch is the live way across the country from us.  We decided to transport it.  It is cheaper than flying cross country and then driving it back.  It was shipped on Tuesday, we should receive it within 7-10 days.  We have had to do some adjusting, with only one vehicle, but it hasn't been too bad yet.
     
    My husband's cousing is getting married at the end of March and we are trying to get reasonable flights to the west coast.  No such luck.  We might have to fly into a neighboring airport.  Actually, if the price is not right, we won't be going at all.  It gets very expensive to fly two people and get someone in to look after our two dogs while we are away. 
     
    That's about it.

    I am sorry to say, but my life is borrrrrring.  I have nothing to write about.  Get up, eat breakfast, walk the dogs, go to work, work, come home for lunch, walk the dogs, go back to work, work, come home, walk the dogs, feed the dogs, feed self and maybe hubby, then go to bed.

    You get the picture.  If my life were a movie you all would be asleep already. zzzzzz

    One thing, my youngest sister is going to the Packer/Seahawk game this Saturday...lucky stiff.  If I could afford the airfare I would fly to Wisconsin and join her.  I am missing all the Packer mania. :...(  The same thing happened the year they won the Superbowl...my husband and I moved to Indiana the summer of 1996, of course the Packers would pick that year to win it all.  The Colts won probably two games that year, and none of the home games were televised because they couldn't sell out the stadium.  How pathetic is that.  During the lean Packer years when they were still playing half of their home games in Milwaukee, if the game didn't sell out the local tv station would buy the remaining tickets so they could televise the game...sweet you say, that's right...sweeeet.

    Now I don't want to give away my position or anything, but the last three days it has been in the 70's here, temperature wise...it is winter for gosh sakes.  Enough with the warm weather.  Yikes.  A friend was recently in Denver, she said it was below zero a couple of days...know that's what I am talking about.  Give me some of that.  Come on I dare you.

    I have to share this video with you.  A pet hippo.
