Feb., my least favorite month

This morning Sydney had her audition for PAAS, which is the gifted music program in Prince George.  She was so nervous I was sure she was going to choke.  She had to sing two songs in front of two judges that she didnt know and it was closed, I wasnt allowed in.  She came out dazed and I asked her what happened and she said " I froze after the first song" I said what do you mean you froze? You didnt sing the second song?  She says "Oh no, I sang it but the judge had to yell at me to unfreeze me after I finished the second song." Oh well.  If she doesnt get it this year she can try out again next year.

We were supposed to get snow this last week but it never materialized (thank goodness) and the lowest temp we had was 9 degrees one night. Since then it has stabled out at about 35-45 during the day and 25-30 at night.  Its funny, last month at this time we were wearing shorts.

We finally made the decision to stay in the house until next spring (08).  It makes sense, even though I really want to get out of here.  I hope it's the right decision.

School is kicking my ass this semester.  It stresses me when I dont get perfect grades and I know that's unreasonable.  I just wont be good at everything, it's a fact of life I guess. I definately know now that I wont major in history or religion, I suck at both. 

Joe is doing pretty good these days, his mood has definately improved since the holiday.  He's starting to save up money to buy a motorcycle (waste of money) and I try to understand why he needs to have one.  He wants a boat too. Oh yeah, and an RV.  Pretty expensive tastes.  I wonder if he would show the same understanding if I demanded a $5,000 purse or a 10,000 computer.  I'm pretty sure he would just laugh.

Anyway, I gotta run. Alone again today and there are kids to beat. Toodles.
