It was below freezing when I went outside this morning and I had to scrape the windows. That is something I haven’t had to do since I moved here from Ohio in 1986. But it is expected to get up to 62 degrees today.

Life is never dull around here. This morning I took my little Geo Metro to Firestone to get the annual safety inspection.

I was sitting in the waiting room and after awhile the inspector came in and told me the inspection wasn’t due until August. I said I think it is due in February. I got it on Feb 11th last year. We went outside and couldn’t find the car. He had gotten the wrong car, a Chev. Prism. In the meantime we were looking all around the lot for my car . . . nowhere to be found. I couldn’t imagine anyone wanting to steal it as bad as it looks. Finally we found it inside the garage. They had gotten it mixed up with the Chev. Prism and were doing a tire rotation on it. They apologized and I ended up getting the tire rotation free. Then they did the inspection. It cost $14.50.

Sis and I went to IHOP for lunch. Then we went to Wal-Mart. We got a new Hamilton--Beach hand mixer to replace the one I've had for years that finally broke. We also got a get-well card to send to Aunt Charlotte.

We filled up the pickup with gas on the way to IHOP.

On the way home we stopped at the grocery store and I got a few things.

I worked until noon today, then went to the beauty shop for my weekly appointment.

After I left there, I went to the lock shop and gave him the books I had done for him.

I stopped at Firestone on the way home to see if I could get the car's safety inspection but they told me it would be a 2 1/2 hour wait and suggested I bring it in early tomorrow morning instead.

We had a Voila steamfresh meal for supper: Roast beef chunks in vegetables with mushroom sauce. It was very good.

It was raining and cold when I got up at 4:00 a.m. and rained off and on all day, only getting up into the mid-40's.

I took a Healthy Choice microwavable meal to work for my lunch.

For supper we had hamburgers and potato salad.

It was cold and wet today. We got some sleet and rain mixed.

Sis brought a pizza from Little Caesar's for our lunch.

This evening I finished up the 2009 books for the locksmith.

I had trouble sleeping and got up at 2:00 a.m. I stayed up until 4 a.m., then went back to bed for a couple more hours.

Phoebe brought Subway sandwiches for us to have for lunch. I also had some broccoli soup left in the refrigerator at work, so I finished that.

We had a finance committee meeting at 2 p.m. and then when I left work after that was over, I went to the bank to cash a couple of checks. Then I went to the grocery store and paid the water bill and got a few groceries. It was almost 4:30 p.m. by the time I got home.

I had got a bag of fully cooked hamburger patties with coupons for free buns and mayonnaise, so we each had a hamburger for supper.

The audit committee audited the church books this morning. They turned out ok.

Phoebe brought us tuna subs and cream of broccoli soup for lunch.
