My sister brought an old picture to me that I have propped up by the computer until I can get it framed. It is one of those cheesy souvenir photos from Opryland (theme park that no longer exists). The picture is of me and my two younger sisters. I was 17, and they were 13 and 11. I took them to the park for their birthday presents and we had SO much fun. When we were younger we were not able to do things like that very often. I was waitressing at Cracker Barrel and I saved all the coins I received in tips until a popcorn tin was full and that was for their birthday. We had over $500 to blow, a lot of money in the 80's for three poor girls! In the photo, we  all look so innocent and happy. The hat I am wearing is epic. I was thrilled to see it again. Was a good memory.



After a few days of mild weather, it is turning windy and bitterly cold again. When I took the dogs out earlier, the storm door was nearly torn from my hands. Brrrr.... it's rough to be out in the cold as soon as you roll out of bed. Yoyo hates the cold and always sulks when he comes back in if I made him go out when it is cold and/or raining. he has started trying to get on my bed lately, which makes me crazy. Whe he was a puppy, he did sleep in my bed, but he was kicked out a couple of years ago and sleeps on the sofa. He is sneaky about it too.... waits until I am asleep then he climbs, not jumps. It still  disturbs me and I kick him out. Not sure why he suddenly started that again, unless he is just cold and knows he can make a warm nest in the bed. I will hit the Goodwill this weekend for old blankets and see if he will stop if he has more blankets. It is very cold in this house at night. It doesn't seem to bother Ruby, but then again, very little does. The warmest spot in the house is Nicki's room, as she keeps a heater running full blast at all times. She is always cold and she has an 11 year old cat in her room that needs heat.
