chilling

But not the kinda chilling that my family has been doing! They have survived -40 temps this week. And they've done it so well, they don't need me back!!! Kidding, well not about the well done part, just about not needing me back.

I however am chilling under a fan in Kathy's family room about to watch a movie. We just went for a 45 min. walk with her puppy Duchess. I took my coat, as it's been a little on the chilly side in the evening. But I had to tie it at my waist, it was so warm! And now I'm sitting here trying to cool down!

Good News!! Kathy has decided it's not safe to go to Mexico!! So I'm doing the happy dance!! I was willing to go, but I won't deny I was nervous!!

We are scheduled to go to Tonto National Monument, where they have cave dwellings that you can actually go into. We're scheduled for the Upper Dwelling Tour, which is 3 miles long and takes 3-4 hours, so I guess Kathy IS trying to kill me off! We're scheduled to go on Friday and I'm supposed to be healthy by then, so maybe she doesn't have evil intent.

I am feeling healthier, so the cure seems to be working. I layed out in the sun the last three days, it was pretty nice. I was supposed to be reading today, but I confess, I dozed instead. It felt so good.

Next week is my birthday, Kathy was so thoughtful and enrolled me in the birthday club for the Black Angus restaurant and so I get a free birthday dinner! We'll be doing that at some point next week. And if I'm really lucky I'm getting a new car for my birthday!! Our burb left Mom on the side of the road in -11 weather this past week, so we've been shopping around and have narrowed it down to two. One in GB and one here. The one here is everything I want in a burb, except heated seats. The one in GB does not have nine seats or a dvd player, but it does have heated seats....... I don't have to drive 2020 miles to get it home either. Doesn't sound like much of a dilemma, but it is..... stay tuned and we'll keep you posted!
