TUESDAY A.M. and the Olympics...

and it is early, dark and darn it .... cold.....my eyes are red and tired .....up way way too late watching the ice dancing finals last night.....Okay Rosey....I will admit that I don't usually watch most of the other figure skating events but have always followed this event whenever I see there will be coverage. Of course this week there was so much hype over the young Canadian couple from the London, Ont area as well as the other younger competitors from the USA .....what was so wonderful was how both sets are not only good competitors but friends as well....both young meno played hockey against each other when they 8 years old I believe and now to be competing against each other last night for Oylmpic Gold....wow what a performance was given.....I thought we would have a tie for Gold and deservedly so.....but our young Canadians came out out on top and it felt so good to see how excited they were and gracious as well.....they both sang the national anthem loud and proud for sure....

As for other sports I have mostly been watching the curling and it seems like we will see both our women and men's teams have a spot in the final four...that will be fun to watch as well.

Today will be busy.....haircut, accountant coming to do year end for the son's business....Grandson #1 is now 2 years old today and there is party I am told and of course "booms and ache Gramma" (balloons and cake) according to Adason.....Let's just hope that we are all feeling better than last week when the two darlings shared all their germs with both sides of the family and we have all had a nasty round of a horrible gut wrenching flu.....do hope Em has decided against a heavy menu !

We are due to have an arctic air mass infiltrate us this week ending what has been "balmy" weather the past couple of weeks....temps have been only minus single digit Celsius with the occassional plus single digit.....would have thought we were in Vancouver at the olympic events.....oh wait a minute.....no flowers blooming or grass to cut ......guess that I will still have to wait a few weeks on....

Sara....how is your family in North Dakota making out......hope their adjustment has gone well and more importantly everyone is happy and content....
