March 15, 2005 - Tuesday, 7:00 p.m. It was one of those beautiful mornings in Colorado. I was up early today, and out the door and headed for work by about 6:30 am. Grey and cloudy to the east, but the sun was up and headed for the top of the cloudbank. However, to the west it was pristine clear with only a few clouds, and a gorgeous covering of snow on the Peak, and the sun was shining there. It was a good day to be up early and into work. The roads weren't great, but got to work without any problems. This is a month of extremes in the weather. Saturday morning I worked on my homework in my room. I opened up the windows and the curtains. It was over 70 degrees out. More then anything I would have loved to go work in the yard, but it wasn't to be. I just enjoyed the spring like breeze and the sunlight streaming in the windows. I then headed out into my day about noontime, and ended up in Castle Rock at Lynn's for the early March birthdays. It was a wonder party and then I stayed there for the night as we had a meeting in Denver at 8 am. During the night it snowed like crazy and there was about 5 inches of snow on the ground when we woke up. Despite the weather, I climbed into Char and Donny's car and we braved our way to mid-town Denver. Eep!! We saw at least three multiple car crashes in the southbound lanes. (There were only a couple of slide-offs and rollovers in the northbound). Ugh!! Lots of smashed cars (like 15!!) and terrible traffic jams, but we arrived safe and sound at the Denver Bah�'� Center on Bayaud. We had our meeting and headed home about 11:30 am. Roads were clear by then and just wet. Good traveling all the way home. I spent the afternoon working on my bills. Gah!! I hate doing bills, but am SOOOoo glad when I get done. :o) I never did get back to homework that day, and actually crawled into bed about 8:15 pm and was asleep within a half hour. I have been trying to give into the sleepiness more recently. Having found out that I am anemic and working on correcting that, I have tried to be more tolerant of my need for sleep and allowing myself to get the sleep. I am feeling so much better after a week or so of 10+ hours of sleep each night. Gonna get there. Mom, Dad and Maureen are leaving for North Dakota today. Grandma turns 101 a week from today. Hard to believe!! Dad spent the last couple of days at my house working on the basement bathroom. We now have a functional shower/tub AND toilet. Woo-hoo!! Now we just need a door, some texturing paint and sink installation and we are done with it!! What a long project this has been. I'll take picture when it is all done. |
