My Two Percent

Well, my readers are demanding I write more.  I must not disappoint my dear fans, so here I am, searching for a tale to tell.  (Ok my readers weren’t so much as demanding more, but my friend Dawn gave me a funny look today at work and said “you sure haven’t written much lately!”)   I am sitting here sipping green tea, watching the Olympics (wishing it were curling instead of ice skating).  I really enjoy the Olympics.  I especially love all the heartwarming stories about the athletes, they always manage to tell a heartwrenching story which leaves you really pulling for an athlete that you’ve known for all of about 45 seconds.  Over the weekend one tale even brought me to tears.  Speaking of the weekend, it was a terrific Valentines Day weekend, filled with delicious food (lobster tails, steak, gourmet pizzas, wine, wonderful cheeses, etc) movies (Crazy Heart, Trees Lounge, Two Lovers), a Euchre tournament, a trip to the farmers market, some shopping, and I even managed to squeeze in an entire “me day” with the additional Monday off (President’s Day).  A perfect weekend.  Next weekend is my family’s annual water-park trip.  This year we’re going to Kalaharie (Sandusky, OH)  instead of Great Wolf Lodge.  Apparently it’s a bit more “grown-up” and is the largest indoor water park in the country.  I can’t wait!  It will be nice to take a little mini-vacation during these ultra-dreary winter months.  And even though we’re not exactly basking in the sun, being in a gigantic indoor water park does make you forget about all of the gray and the cold and the snow for a minute.
