Right now I have another attempt at gluten free bread in the bread machine. Will be interesting to see how it turns out if it does.
Still need to get in some exercise today. To cold to be outside so will try to get some inside exercise done.

Have finally got a bit of a fire going in the woodstove. It's only 4F outside at noon.
We really need to go to the store soon, we have very little food in here, LOL. DH is still sleeping.
Having coffee and thinking about making pancakes. We have no syrup, but we have some raspberry jam. Mmm.... And I still have some eggs.______

Well.....so far, had a lovely morning - NOT. World War with my sister face to face and cleared the air....opened her eyes to MY reality. She's having a 'discussion' with dad and from what I can hear, she's getting a schooling and dad's proving me right - that he's disillusioned about a lot of things in life. *sigh*
Other then that, had a nice breakky at home and a chat with DH about everything. Kinda made an action plan for going forward. Will get to laundry today and hopefully some sorting/purging/organizing. Also need to take dad out to grocery shop.
Perhaps a quiet night in with a movie in in order....oh and a decaf w/Irish cream too.2012: The Year Of The Purge!

Had free fun with the kids this morning. Built castles at Lowes Build and Grow clinic, learned to draw dragons at the Bemis Art School's family day, and took a tour of the Fine Art Center with a docent. Gotta love free activities for the kids! Now time to get this place cleaned up.
