Snow! It actually snowed here today, and it was a challenge to get the chihuaua to go outside.

Pray for me… I need to go to Ikea tomorrow :eek: to get a hook that matches our existing towel bars, so DH will have something to hang his pump on next to the shower.

Do you have cable or satellite?  
How large is the TV in my room?  
How about pets?  
Where do I put my 100 gallon Tanganyika aquarium?  
Who will Kosher the kitchen after Swampy cooks pork?  
What about overnight “guests”?

My back hurts.  
Waiting for half a Vicodin and a glass of Burgundy to kick in.
