Flippin Cold!!

Winter can officially end anytime now. I'm so tired of this freezing then warming up then freezing again stuff! I have a hundred gallons of heating oil being delivered monday. We've managed fine without using it but now that Emmy is here, I'm wanting to make sure this place stays toasty. I have no idea how much we have left in our tank right now and I'm leary of running it since if you run it without much oil...it can cause it to break. So we're hanging in there until Monday. Jesse fixed the fireplace and we've been burning it at night but the wood they have here is so dry it burns up in no time. Oh well. We're still using our electric heaters too. Hopefully we wont have to burn much of the oil and we'll have it for next winter. You would think all of this cold mess would end soon.. it is nearly March after all! Dang I just realized March is tomorrow... closer than I thought!

They cancelled school here Wednesday and Thursday (nothing was even on the ground.. it had all melted but I guess some part of the county got walloped so they closed all the schools). So I had Emiley two full days in a row. It wasn't too bad... we managed to get through it. lol. But today I didnt have either of them since alley was at her dad's... and it's been nice & quiet. The girls and I have lounged on the couch and taken naps (ariel & Clarity are still sleeping and I think Emmalyn is going back to sleep since she's been changed and eaten). I really should be doing our taxes or getting this place organized but when it's this cold & cloudy outside.. it's hard to get motivated to do anything!

I guess I should get some pics of little miss emmalyn (little blondie as Jesse calls her since what little hair she has, her eyebrows and eyelashes are all this white blonde color) up on this blog. I tried to the other day but it wasn't cooperating. She's such a cute little thing! I'm not bias or anything like that ;o)
