What? No. NO.

Two days ago it was eighty degrees out. EIGHTY. My son sat on our front steps with his shirt off, eating an ice-cream sandwich.

Now it's snowing. Henry's school is canceled. No. This is ridiculous. Cut it out, weather.

All I can say now is, there's a new post over at AlphaMom today. I've got some things to say to Garrison Keillor, over there. If it turns out he's responsible for this weather, he's in big trouble.

Tell me what you're doing this weekend. It better be good, or I can't say what I'll do.

We're playing Kill the Beige this weekend!

We just bought a house from the Beige Beigersons, and our mission is to splash it with real colors as quickly as possible. Master bedroom: Connected Gray. Guest bedroom: Exclusive Plum. Rest of the house: Adjectived Noun.

Grab a brush and come help!

Making stew and watching old "24" DVDs. The best thing to do when it snows on a Friday night!

Saturday - taking 2 kids to swim lessons, then singing with my community choir in a UN Peace in Iraq rally, then having neices & nephews over for a sleepover. That makes 5 kids ages 2-7 for one sure-to-be-loud night....aaaaaaarrrrrrrggggg!Sunday - recovering (I hope)

I'm going to kill all of my co-workers and my boss before we finish moving our office.

I'll finish it up myself. Since I've done the whole thing myself already.

Then I will drown the bitterness in alcohol.

Promise not to reach out through your monitor and kill me when I say it's 75 degrees in Denver? But, we've had enough winter to satisfy anyone, I'd say. So. We're breaking out the GRILL.

I'm home from work tonight because of the snow, even though the other day we were at the park without jackets. I even said to my son, "Friday, if it's nice, let's spend all day at the playground and have a picnic!". Friday, in the hail/ice/sleet/snow, we spent watching Before The Dinosaurs: Walking With Monsters and generally hanging out inside, where it is warm.

I'm in the central Jersey snow. Yuck. But my 7 year old and I went out for a walk in the snowy dark ---- we call it creeping. It's a little slippery but the snow is just magical, even if it is March. Also: in his snow overalls my boy looks so incredibly cute, even if he does try to throw a snowball down my neck.

We are going to an Irish wedding reception, with plenty of good eats, dancing and booze. (But not in that order, I imagine.) May the weather stop its bipolar ways!!

Heh, other than laughing maniacally about our lovely 75 and sunny weather here in San Jose? Well, since the hubby didn't buy me anything for my birthday this last Monday, I'll be going shopping to make him pay for his sloth.

After that I shall dig out my swim suit and attempt to gain at least a small bit of color on my hide whilst I mow the lawn. Yeah, did I mention the husband's sloth?

The rest of the time, I'll probably spend on the sofa watching the one year old assault daddy while he foolishly attempts to nap on the floor.

If I'm brave enough, I'm heading downtown to make out with strangers.

Ok, I know a couple of them, and we have mutual friends, but still.

[Anne]

Let's see. I'll be sitting around the house, hoping that I hear from my boyfriend, and if things really go well that I'll get to see him. Right now I don't even know if he has to work this weekend, though I'm guessing he probably does.

But at least I'm in Florida. *duck*

I'm wearing these shoes:

with something green to drink heavily for the Irish tomorrow, then trying to quit smoking Sunday. Lofty goals, eh?

[Sarah Jackson]

it's 95 degrees where I live and we'll be swimming in the pool. You can feel sorry for me in August when it's 120 degrees and I have melted into a puddle of sweat.

[lolly]

oh, north central MN is FABULOUS this time of year! i'll be fighting my way through puddles posing as ice and snow drifts taller than myself...then i'll resume hibernation until june...thanks for asking

[Lee]

i'm drinking my weight in coffee, listening to music WAY louder than I would be if hubby was still in the house, and contemplating going for a walk [run? trot?] in the f-ing freezing cold. Oh, and mourning the waste of a perfectly lovely pedicure. I'm DONE WITH WINTER! We are officially broken up.

[sarahd]

I like A Praire Home Companion..such relaxing radio.

Weekend plans??? hanging w/ the girls for our monthly moms night out, working out, and probably go to church. It's about balance. Hee hee

[WendyP]

We're going to be staring at the phone, willing the mortgage broker to CALL US. I'll work off some anxiety but somehow ruin our credit rating in one day by buying yarn this afternoon.

[Amy]

I'm not leaving my house because with all the rain and melting, my very long dirt driveway is impassable. So I'm snuggling with my 10 month old daughter while my husband is upstairs working.

[ozma]

I'm going to take a shower. It's been days.

[Mummy Crit]

Interested to read your thoughts on GK. Weekend is almost over, but we get an extra day this time around.

This has been a very good weekend. On Friday night Himself and I drank too much wine and then played music too loud and danced in the kitchen. It was great.

Yesterday I went shopping with #2 because all my good work clothes are *too big.*Why? I've lost 23 lbs. since the middle of January, and that turns out to be between 2 and 3 dress sizes. I bought four suits; they are *small* (normal). One of them looks like an interpretation of something Jackie O would have worn, which is smashing, and another has a sort of Armani-ish vibe and I really think the Jackie O suit is calling out for a new pair of shoes, don't you?

Today I will drive #2 to work and then I will shop in the mall for one of the fabulous new trench coats, because I can now wear clothing that is a) purchased from a regular-type shop and not a fat-lady store and b) actually has some cut and style and is not made out of polyester and/or has elastic waist bands.

When you lose a decent amount of weight your feet get smaller. Who knew?

Not only am I materialistic, I'm reveling in it.

Let's see, chasing a toddler, chasing a toddler, trying to get a toddler to nap (pipedream), chasing a toddler...oh and did I mention chasing a toddler?

This was the week we learned how to climb to the top of the fridge...I'm still scratching my head.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your blog.

[nadarine]

the most entertaining activity of the weekend thus far was last night's attempt to convince my super-stoned coworker that hiding in the office while I sold tickets to patrons was the best idea ever.then she was all "but I want to help! I'm your helper monkey!"I gave up at "helper monkey" and let her out of the office.

Well the weekend has passed, and I spent it visiting my Dad, but this weekend I'll be celebrating my birthday and going to see Rockstar Supernova.
