First Snow 2007

So we had our first big snow storm Thurs. Dec. 14th, 2007. As you can see it was about a foot! I took this picture of the house as I was leaving the driveway for work. As you may have heard we are in for another blast tonight starting around midnight, but this one will also bring rain, sleet, ice with the snow. Ice is not good! I already fell once, I was getting the mail out of the mail box and trying oh so gingerly to walk back to the house. Slip! Bam! Down I went! Luckily nothing broke, just alittle pride as I looked around to see if any of the neighbors saw me sprawled out on the driveway, leopard umbrella (yes it was still snowing) flying one way and the mail from my other hand flying another into the snow. Hurt my right wrist and shoulder a little as I went down, but not to worry, I am fine.

VMG Girls

The VMG
Girls

These pictures are for you Marcia, as you can see Linda and the 2 little ones are growing! Isn't she cute!! See Kris in the background? She was wondering what I was up too. :)

And here are some of the other girls waving hello to you Marcia!! from the front line in Family Practice. They say
HOWDY!

I stopped by the Lab and caught Ms. Elizabeth, she said to say hello to you Marcia!!

And here is the infamous Judy working, I actually got a picture of her and she didn't know it. I told her later that
I had taken her picture and she said "When?"..........and when I told her she said "Well at least you got a picture of me when I was actually working!" Next time I will catch her at the snack machine where she usually is :)


I will get more as time goes by so you can see everyone at VMG. They all said to say hello to you and asked how you are doing down there in the south. I told them and let them know we keep in touch . They miss you too!!

"Big Red"

Well here she is folks.........."Big Red". I finally had to part with my little white Metro LSI 2000, to many things were going wrong with her and she wasn't reliable anymore.

I had seen "Big Red" online when I was shopping around for cars......used cars. I went to different dealerships, looked and and drove different cars but something wasn't exactly "right".

I knew why, she wasn't RED. As you may not know my favorite color is red. And my favorite color combination is red and black. So after looking and trying out different dealerships and cars, I floated back to the car I had looked at in the first place.

And so here she is..............."Big Red!" as we all like to call her. Of course I have leoparded (is that a word? it is in my dictionary!) her up...........got the leopard steering wheel cover going on, the leopard seat covers, the cat paw print license plate covers (enlarge the pictue and you will see it on the license plate) and just the other day my leopard floor mats came in the mail!! I have my little leopard buddy "Leo" who is sitting in the back seat. With winter coming, as you can see by the snow on the ground, I went to Advance Auto Parts and Cher bought me clear floor mats to cover my leopard ones, I don't want them to get all muddy and wet with the winter weather here. I had her windows tinted (to save Sun damage on her inside) and I had the automatic car starter installed, like I had in my other car. It is a MUST here in New England. It is so much nicer to get in a car that is already toasty and warmed up inside. So if any one has any other leopard "car goodies" that I can add to Big Red, send them my way! Oh yea, I am looking for some black magnetic "paws" that I can put on the back of Big Red........:)

Later!
