		 Tonight, I plan on drinking my weight in Mai-tai's to forget about snow....Actualy, I may have 1...and a little sushi... 
 
tomorrow, put the hardware on my yankee swap plug and box it up... 
tomorrow night, I'm taking the boss lady to see the Pops at the Verizon center ion Nashua NH....I've got a room for the night. so I wont have to drive back to Mass until the morning... 
 
Sunday, hopefully brady and the pats beat up on the Jets, I'm going to next week's game so I wont be dissapointed if he and Moss wait until next week to make the record books.... 
 
and of coarse, deal with that nast ywhite crap that keeps falling from the sky....

		I have a visit with my new PCP today after work.  Great way to start a weekend.  I can't think of anything better.   
Keeping it real for the rest of the weekend.  Plan on watching the Pats and getting my Christmas shopping done.

 Mine started at 40, and I'm not looking forward to 50 when they add another "exam" to the physical. (I believe it's a colonoscopy).  
My only consolation is seeing the look on young guys faces when I tell them about their 40th birthday "surprise" at physical time.

		 I was supposed to get together with Saltfly and the Senior Angler but due to weather now have to get number 1 daughter back to Boston before it hits. Oh well it will make it easier on Sunday just having to sit back and watch the Pats on a rare 1pm Sunday game. 
 
Oh, and a visit to M&D's tomorrow morning so I can finish Numby's X-Mas present.

		 Work today, then Xmas party tonight. 
Tomorrow, out to WMass to help paliaso move, then boogie home before the storm. 
Sunday Pats and beers. 
After yesterday (didn't finish shovelling till 11 last nite), I'm pretty tired. 
Later, 
Rick

Not doing much but rest for the Sunday/Monday snow clean up 
 
Probably sleep late tomorrow, replace wiper blades and windshield washer fluid on Explorer. 
 
Sunday cuddle and Bubble bath with the Misses, She has been in DC all last week.

		Visit my mother in the nursing home, visit my dad in the hosp, he had a heart attack and a stroke this week, hope to get my christmas tree on sat and watch the pats on sun.  That's pretty much it.
