While Thinking....

When thinking this week on my way to work (which I don't have long to think since I'm less then two miles from work) I thought "Wow! I'm 50 years old and Aunt Jessie's 100 years old. This makes her twice as old as me." Isn't that cool! I don't know that I want to live another 50 years though.

We had an Ice Storm last night. It started around 4:00pm and the warning said until 7am. Larry went out to get the newpaper this morning and he said it is all slushy out side. It really didn't get cold enough to keep it frozen. Thats good!

I'm staying home from church today. This cold is still hangin on. Yesterday I worked on this piano bench we've had for 15 years and its been setting out in the garge for 10 years. Marylin went with me probably 10 years ago and we picked out some material to cover the bench of it and some foam for a cushion. I finally got around to painting it. I painted the base white and I'm almost done putting the material over the cushion. I just have to do the back side of the lid and I'm done. Then I'm going to put it at the end of our bed. I've got to get it done today, as Jim, my brother, is bringing his dog next weekend while he babysits our dogs and he will keep his dog in the utility room where I've been working on the bench. I'll let you know hoe the bench turns out.

Gotta go for now. Love ya all, Lori

Ok everybody I started my own blog. I came up with the name IROL YLREBOM because this is the first thing that popped into my head. This is my first name backwards along with my maiden name backwards. Why this popped into my head, Who knows???? Guess God did it.

I'm looking forward to going to Aunt Jessie's 100th birthday party on March 2nd. Her party is on March 3rd. She lives in Osage Beach, MO. We are riding with Mike and my sister Marylin. It'll be fun. Erica and Aaron are also going. I'm looking forward to seeing them there.

Dan and SallyRose and the kids came to visit us this past weekend and we got the privlege of babysitting the grandchildren for the first time. It was so enjoyable! The kids are growing up.

I'm gonna go for now. Tooddle ooo! I've had a cold this week and I'm not feeling to good. Hope I get over it before going to Aunt Jessie's. (some people call her A.J. for short :) Lori
