I haven't posted on our blog in a while, and there is a good reason.....not too much new is really going on. I continue to feel that January and February are the most boring and worthless months of the entire year! In northern California, those two months prove to be extremely rainy. Now, I know that I shouldn't really complain too much, given that much of the rest of the country has been covered in snow or also saturated in rain, but we had 10 straight days of rain! 10! Suffice it to say that we have had quite enough of rain. But it is not over.....next week it is supposed to rain....... every......single.......day.
If you have lived in California, you know that when it rains, it doubles the work commute. This is because no one in California can drive in weather other than clear and sunny...and sometimes that is a stretcch. We are a state of baaaaaaaaaaaaaad drivers. Of course I have my theories about that, but I won't share them for fear of offending anyone. :) It is actually so bad on the roadways when it rains like this, that I strategically use vacation time to work 4 day work weeks during these months. Okay, enough complaining. How long 'till spring???? :)
I plan to go visit Meg next weekend for a couple of days. I'm really looking forward to that! Also, Jasen and I have been working diligently on our new year resolutions.....just the usual weight loss, and for me, stress reduction. I joined a yoga/pilates studio two weeks ago, and so far I am loving it! I am particularly loving the challenge and meeting new people!
Roxy has also seemingly been depressed by the rain and lack of walks, so she is currently on a hunger strike (perhaps maybe the first dog with anorexia?). Matt went on his 6th grade trip to SlyPark with his class. He had a great time, but was sad not to have seen any snow....just some rain! I can't belive that he will be a 7th grader and in middle school next year! Time sure goes by with the blink of any eye.
Happy 60th Wedding Anniversary to G'ma and G'pa V.B.! We wish we could have been there for the celebration!

We are sliding in the snow in CT, it does add a little excitement and color (is white a color?) to the blaw month of February! Finishing bootcamp this week ( 5 weeks, 5 days per week, 5 AM!) so like you, trying to keep up with resolutions!
Cheers,
T&B
Wow, Bootcamp! I'm impressed! :)
I'm sure the snow is exciting....I think I would enjoy it much more than the rain! The rain makes mud....not so pretty. haha.
Keep up the hard work! :)
