It's snowing again!

On Monday I spent most of the day doing snow removal. I think we had about 14 inches. I used my snow blower, which was good, but got ambitious so removed the snow for 3 of my neighbors. I ended up removing snow from my driveway 3 times, but was too lazy to do the others after the first time!

I broke down and bought a Playstation 2. I was looking for a Nintendo Wii, but gave up the search. I really wanted to buy the Dance Dance Revolution game, which is not only fun, but good exercise, and Chelsea wanted Guitar Hero, which simulates playing an electric guitar. So after shopping around we got the game console and the DDR game, with two dance pads so we could have competitions. We couldn't find Guitar Hero so I got online and ended up ordering Rock Band instead, which comes with a guitar, drums and microphone so at least 3 people can play. I also got a few used games that use the regular controller. Chelsea and I have had loads of fun playing a winter Olympic game. I am so bad that we both ended up laughing so hard we were crying. As for the DDR game, I am totally non-musical so I don't have the rhythm to do really well. Chelsea, on the other hand, is very musical and so very good at the game. Fortunately there are different levels so I can play at the beginner and she can play at the more advanced stage.

Eline loves the PS2 also, and had several friends over last night to play. I think I have now sentenced myself to a life of teenagers filling the family room! That's okay, at least I know what they are doing!

School is going well, much less painful than last semester. Most of my classes are on Monday's which gives me more free time during the week.

Work is still good at Old Navy. I am working every Wed. afternoon and every other Friday afternoon. Not many hours, but just enough to give me some extra spending money and to let me have my discount.

Looks like Mike and I will be going to Seattle on Feb. 8th for the weekend. I'm really looking forward to it. Eline's dad will still be here visiting, but he's here to see her, not me, so this will give them some private time. Chelsea will stay at a friend's house so my girls will be taken care of while I party it up in Seattle! :)
