Ok, Christmas is over and New Years Day is just a few days away. Now what is after NYD? For most of the country/world it'd be St. Valentine's Day. But us weirdos in New Orleans are different. This coming year we have MARDI GRAS PARADES mixed in that time with Mardi Gras Day on the 18th of February. Along with the traditional parades there are non-traditionals like the Krewe of Barkus dog themed parade, Krewe of Chewbacchus sci-fi themed parade (and actual religion) , satirical parades, shoe and purse themed parades, kids and boat parades. Who knows what else is out there. If you're not in town during early Feb. make plans to be. http://www.mardigrasneworleans.com/schedule.html

I wonder if lawyers go crazy around this time of year. I mean, with people singing Christmas songs all over the place they must be going, "Is that song still under copyright? They are doing a public performance by singing out loud for others to hear."

We were at my moms today when I noticed a butterfly near the ground slowly flapping its wings. Ends up that it had just hatched from a chrysalis and it was drying its wings. Of course I layed on the ground to get some nice photos of the wings spread out when it decided to keep them closed. I was able to get it to hold on to my finger and bring it up for a photos when it flow off into the crepe myrtle for a miniute then away for good. I'll miss the time I had with you Mr/Miss Butterfly. *sniff* Now I have something caught in my eye. *sniff*

So it looks like we have heat for tonight. Almost had too much heat earlier. Seems like while they were removing the old "Freon" lines from the outer wall the guy had a hard time removing a section. (The section ended up having some major kinks in it and they were surprised any "Freon" was moving through it at all.) I guess he was cutting it with a cutting torch and some of the wall insulation got hot and it was smoldering. But nobody really noticed it until some smoke was smelled. Long story-short, they had to spray the hose down the wall to put it out. Of course that leads to water in my closet and could lead to mold in the wet wall. Now we have an empty closet with one wall torn out, a bed full of closet items and have to wait till tomorrow for them to come back and patch the wall. BUT, we do have airflow in the kitchen now. I mentioned that we never had anything coming out the register there and they looked at it and corrected the problem!!! I guess I better see about cleaning off some of the bed so at least one of us can get some sleep. lol

Getting new A/C system installed. Slight problem. Need my closet emptied in the process. No room to place everything. Emergency "garage sale" needed I have a bunch of Stephen King books that need to go. Hard and soft covers. Dinner ask if I have this or that, I probably do. Other items when we get a chance to go thru them. Honestly need a shed and a second job.
