..or..um...an Aunt to a boy baby. Great Aunt, actually. Boy, do I feel old! Some of you know that my oldest niece is pregnant. Most of you probably don't. Anyway, she found out yesterday that she's having a boy. I was really hoping for a girl, but boys are OK too. It's been hard getting used to the idea of my "baby" being pregnant, but I suppose everything will be OK. It's been pretty tough on her, so if you think about it, say a prayer for her and pray that I don't maim her boyfriend. Thanks.
In other news, it's been snowing very prettily. I didn't go to work today mostly because I really wouldn't have had much work to do if I did go in and there was supposed to be some messy weather during the day today and I had no inclinations about spending the night at the office (I only have one blanket there and no pillows--it just wouldn't have been comfortable). I guess I'll be forced to go to work tomorrow (though I still won't have any work to do) just to keep up the appearance that I'm not a lazy bum. I realize this deception is wrong, but I have to pay the bills somehow.
I bought a heated water bowl for the girls because it's been so cold that I can't keep water outside for them without it turning to ice very quickly. I think they prefer ice blocks. They've rolled their other (frozen) bowl around the yard and they mostly just sniff the heated bowl. I paid good money for it. They're dang well gonna learn how to drink from it!
