if you don't like the weather...

wait 5 minutes. How true it is here in Cinci. I woke up yesterday to crazy thunder, and today I woke up to snow. I'm freezing, but I refuse to turn on the heat. It will be back to normal temps in a couple days. Ben wanted to turn on the AC a few day ago! I'm stingy. We did turn on the house fan. Coolest thing. I'd never hear of one before this house. Just open the windows and the fan circulates the air through the whole house! Creates a nice breeze. I only needed the AC for a few weeks last summer. Electric/gas bills were a bear all winter, but relief is in sight. Yea seasons!

Updates.

Not too much to report. B's been off school this week. We both worked alot. I did my taxes, and expected to owe some money, but it turned out to be a reasonable amount. (thank you house/tution/self employed credits) Ben did his taxes; his refund is going toward drum equipment . *hrmph* I find it hard to be supportive of "fun" purchases right now with my own tight budget, but then I remind myself that I'm not his mother and he's an adult. He's been amazing about helping me with a million things and he may never have the opportunity to spend a thousand dollars on recording equipment ever, ever again... *sigh* I'm just jealous.
On that note, it a beautiful spring day here in the tri-state area, and I wish you were here.

XOXO

boo!

sorry its been a while, but B's been hogging the computer recently. He had a few final projects due last week. He's working on some neat stuff. Some day he'll get around to building me a web page, though I don't know what I'd put on it. *hrm* any suggestions?
Saw Little Shop of Horrors this week. E and I had subscription seats, but this was our last show. I think we're going to do it again next season. Wicked is coming!!! LOVE that show. Read the book and/or see the musical. Either way, a good time.
All in all, a good week. Worked alot between the two jobs, but I'm off tonight and intend on spending a nice relaxing evening in front of the computer playing Sims 2. B's working. :) *sigh* good times.
