My new printer came in yesterday. It's absolutely AWESOME! I'm soooooooooo pleased with it! Everything I print is just crystal clear -- you'd think it was a laser printer! And FAST! WOW! I can't believe how much faster this printer is than my old one (not the Lexmark piece of garbage I just bought but the "other" old printer). Even when it copies, it's fast! I'm so very happy and from reading the reviews on it, everyone else is, too!
Abby stayed home from school on Friday with a sore throat. Greg had to work, so she had to come into the store with me. Poor thing spent most of the time sleeping.

Apparently, there is a plague on the Mik Household when it comes to being sick!
Greg has spent the last couple of days in bed. It started with a head cold that he graciously decided to "share" with me . . .
On Monday, he called to tell me that he had the stomach flu . . . I don't think I need to go into detail on that . . .
I started taking some over the counter stuff, trying to ward off the worst of it. I'm not sure if it's working or not, because my head is completely stuffed up right now and my ears are plugged a bit. Hopefully this is as bad as it will get . . .
Weather is starting to change. It's been mild here -- in the 20's or so. Tonight, snow is going to start after midnight. We're forecast to get 3-6" by the time it's all done sometime tomorrow. I doubt there will be enough in the morning to cancel school, but you never know. The forecasters rarely get it right, so who knows how much we'll really get. After the snow is done, the COLD front is going to move in . . . and I DO mean cold! Saturday night's low is supposed to be somewhere in the area of 20 below zero (without the wind chill!). Certainly, the coldest night of the year! I told Aaron he needs to put the geese back in the barn. It's not really warmer in there, but at least they're out of the wind and have some straw to lay down on, instead of the cold ground. The geese are really amazing creatures when it comes to the cold. They literally tuck their legs up underneath their wings and warm downy feathers, so the only thing on the ground is their bellies and with all that fat and down. They tuck their heads into their feathers as well, so they're nice and toasty! You still feel bad for them, though! He also has to go to the feed store and buy another heat bulb for the chicken coop. We have two heat lamps in there and one of them burnt out. The chickens will need that little bit of extra heat with this cold weather coming!
Erica's basketball team is doing better. Last night, they only lost by 8 points! LOL That's pretty good, considering they were slaughtered the other day! They're getting better and it's obvious that they're working hard!
The Dutch Oven University website is coming along nicely. My webmaster has been working hard on it and I've been busy typing up articles and recipes to put on there. I can't wait to start uploading the information, but that has to wait until my webmaster has his end of it completed. It's very exciting to have all of this coming together so well!
So, that's about it. Not much happening . . . just a couple of normal days! Isn't that nice!
