Well its the last day of February and March is waiting right around the corner. Grab a cup of your favorite beverage and pull up a chair. Don't worry, even though were are in the Dragon's Den this week it's still nice and comfortable, plus the heating bill is cheap!

Got an interview thursday with the power company, passed the pre-employment test I took recently.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Evening everyone. Did the normal sunday thing with the wife today. Went to lunch, did the grocery shopping, and ran a few other errands. She's making meatloaf, homemade noodles, mashed taters, and gravy for dinner tonight. Feeling thousand times better today, head is still clogged up but draining now. Glad the crud is almost gone.
