Snowy Winter and Some Other Stuff

We got another snowstorm and when I woke up it was so pretty outside with everything covered in snow.

Not a bad view outside our porch.

We needed some milk for breakfast. I braved the blowing snow to walk to the coop and Mexican market to get some groceries.

Oh, look, I snow blowed the snow.

I swear I'm almost done with this. At least all the cracks are patched.

I came up with a way to attach our shop vac to my orbital sander. I'd spend the rest of the day sanding.

Magnatiles everyday.

Books everyday.

We got the kids a Lego Advent calendar this year.

I cleaned under all of our radiators. Looks at all these treasures I found from our kids and the previous kids that lived here.

We picked up this game recently from the thrift store. I love playing board games with the kids.

Over the River & Through the Woods to Grandmothers House We Clean

My mom had wanted us to come down to my grandparents home to clean for months. Unfortunately a busy summer had kept us away. We finally made it a week after our honeymoon ended. We slept at my parents home in Cudahy before heading down to Racine. We got home from our trip on Tuesday and left for Milwaukee on Thursday. It was almost like an extended vacation. Before leaving the cities we stopped and had dinner at Foxy Falafel. It was pretty good and I like that she uses sprouted chickpeas. I never knew my grandparents on Poppyseed Tuska's side so Grandma and Grandpa Wojcik were a special part of my life. They both passed away last year after living nearly 90 wonderful years. Their home was always a wonderfully warm and inviting place. The perfect place to spend your Christmas Eve in front of a fire place. Since it's going to be sold, Brooke and I took on the massive task of organizing and cleaning the home. When Scott told me h...

7 Days Down, 158 Days To Go

Umm, well I ended up having a longer Christmas break than I had originally thought. It went really well until the last few days. I had dreaded this day since we met, I always knew it was going to come, but yet I ignored that it would ever happen. Saying goodbye to Scott was the hardest thing I've ever had to do. I've had to do that so many times last year and I still have to do it. If I can get through January and February and I think I will be ok, or so I keep telling myself. I took out a second loan and it got denied, so I'm still as poor as ever until I can figure out what I'm going to do. I'm so glad school starts next week, being alone all day is very hard. I left Scott Thursday night and headed back to Little Chute, which I was glad I did. We're having some family issues concerning my dad's business and the death of his friend. It tears me up to see him like this. I wish I could've stayed home longer. I pretty much did, I left home early Sunday mor...
