Spring seems so far away. I keep dreaming of the windows being open and the children laughing and screaming outside. I can't stand the look of the brown snow-it just likes someone took a big crap. I love snow and playing in it however this seems like a long long winter. I am done cleaning the salt and mud off the floor with the snow pants and jacket everywhere. Sam keeps refusing to wear a jacket and so I have decided that I just don't care anymore.

I think the only thing that has gotten me through is working out at the YMCA. I have to say that I have done very good with Chris having more surgery but this time it is kicking my ass. It has been good times at my house and that the boys all have been trying to please mommy because they are done with me nagging and my new rule is that if it is not picked up it is gone for good.

I have decided that I need to go on vacation without anyone from my house after my mom is feeling better so I am looking for a great place so please let me know if you think of any.
