On another note, school starts for me on Saturday!  I'm going to keep up with this blog!  I am!!

Back to Work

Well, I'm back to work today and back to school on Saturday. I do not want to let my little bloggy blog go by the wayside, so I'm going to spend time every morning writing. I plan to do a few updates this week by posting my favorite blogs/websites, and then adding these blogs to the side of this web page.

I think I'll make this public once I post those favorite blogs!

I am thankful to have a job, but I am not ready to go back to work!

WOOOOO!

I am hoping and praying that this snowfall will happen on Thursday! We are right on the rain/snow line! I'm trying to learn how to read the models, but I'm just not good enough yet to post those models and make sense of them. BUT PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let it SNOW! This weather nerd needs it!!

On another note, I joined Weight Watchers Online today, because I just let myself go crazy over the holidays. So I'm putting a stop to it, RIGHT NOW! Hopefully, I'll get at least 10 lbs off this month. That's my goal, anyway!!!

Interesting Data-Flood of 2009

The Peachtree City NWS just posted some interesting data about the flood that affected Georgia in 2009.

Epic Floods of 2009 http://www.srh.noaa.gov/ffc/?n=0909epicflood

This link provides information about the highest river crests during the flood. Several records were set.

This flood I will never forget. I have never seen the interstate flooded, but it was on my drive in to work one morning at the 24/75 split coming in from Georgia.

At one point, all the roads that lead to my home were closed and I wasn't sure how I was going to get home from work! Luckily, one route had opened up by the time I got to work.

2010!

Well we made it to 2010! Typically, Stacey and I always say that even years are terrible years. Well, I'm not falling into that this year. I am PERSONALLY going to MAKE this year a good year! Positivity, folks! Being an optimist is annoying to those around you, but it makes me feel better so I'm going back to being optimistic!!

On the other side, I got to have lunch with my dear friend, Amber, and her family yesterday! What a great way to end 2009! I miss her so much! I think that real friends are a rare treat, and I am so blessed to have her as a REAL friend in my life! Even though I knew her for such a short time, I feel like she's always been around! She truly makes me laugh out loud!

I'm trying to decide when to put this up on Facebook for other people to read. Right now, I'm just not that comfortable, but I don't think it will be long now!!!

Happy 2010 everyone!!
