Speak Rich speak

The weather is warmer that it has been in awhile but it is cloudy and rainiy. I guess I like the warmer weather but this drizzle rain is a pain.

A friend of Jess' that graduated a few years ago was in a car accident and is in pretty bad shape. There were three in the car, one died, on is in critical condition and she is in bad condition.

This girl was on the Sprint Med relay team with Jess when they got 2nd at State and broke the school record. Her and Jess were friends. They both did the long jump and she were part of a group of girls that Jess used to hang out with. It is sad.

They were on a trip to Las Vegas and got in the accident in Nevada.

I have a terrible cold and it seems that I have lost my voice. I sit here alone with the dogs sitting around me. The cock their heads and look at me as I try to talk to get more sound than a wisper to come out. Nancy, if you are reading this, be prepared to answer all the calls today if my voice doesn't come back.

This has happened one other time and I hate it. I guess it works out because I don't teach tonight. I am not sure what I would do it I had no voice and tried to teach. Since it is St. Patrick's day, do you thing a magical green beer elixir might be a cure?

Ok, off to start this wet day.

I hate being tired

The weather is going to be in the 50's today. Nice!

I am not a big fan of the Spring ahead thing. I am very tired this morning. The coffee may be my saving grace.

There is a cold bug going around right now and I got it this weekend. Scratchy throat, stuffy nose and sinus issues. I am hoping it doesn't move down to my chest. I hate colds!!

Jess has her first track meet today. It is at ISU and it starts at 4. She long jumps so she will be the first event. I will probably leave work around 2 today because I need to so to Target to get cold and sinus medicine in Ames before the meet. I think there is some other stuff I need but it is early right now and I don't remember.

It is spring break at DMACC this week so I don't have classes to teach. That is a good thing.

Golf practice starts for Drew today. I think he is pretty excited. I will make sure there isn't any beer in my golf bag before I leave so if he needs it tonight, he won't get in trouble.

Ok, I need to get back to the coffee drinking. Spring forward is kicking my ass.
