Good morning everyboomie.
Welcome to the weekend!
Yaaaaa! We can stay up late, and have a slumber party, and watch music videos all night.
I'm really bummed out right now. I thought I could actually hear the ocean when I put a shell up to my ear........here in Oklahoma.......a thousand miles from the nearest ocean.
It is nice to know though, that if I get low on cash, I can always cut my hair off and sell it for the copper in it.
I should probably let it get get longer than a half inch though.
My mortgage payment will take a few locks.
No plans here for the weekend except waiting out the cold blast. I took Missy to the park today and it was 28 degrees at 11:00. I thought my hands and feet would never thaw out.
I have Beau and Missy both to keep me warm tonight.
Have a happy day everyone.

Have fun in Wisconsin, and enjoy the ice castles. 
As for tomorrow, my voice lesson was canceled, so I plan to catch up on some games. Hopefully I'll actually have time this time. 
I'll have to practice, too, as I haven't had a whole lot of time for that this week at all.
Taintedfury thinking of you. 
Wishing everyone a wonderful Saturday!
