It is now Saturday.  This week, I have made re-fried beans, and rice.  The beans turned out some spicy since I added a shake of cayenne pepper.  It seems to call for something spice-less such as rice or cheese.  Yet we are enjoying it anyways.  I have discovered on the land we rent that there is a lot of poison oak growing on the land, we do not want these to grow into trees but they are beginning to look more tree like and less like a vine.  Hubby wants to burn them off since he is highly allergic to them.  Yet there is no rain in the forecast.  Not sure that will happen.  Yet not sure it will not.  I am still temped to take my pruning shears out and get rid of most of them.  I know the trunks are not the problem.  I could cut them and throw them into the burn  pile.  Yet I know they will return.  That is not good either.
We are still in January, but the days are too warm.  I live at 4500 feet elevation, but we have been in the upper 60's during the day even though we have been dropping down to low 20's during the night.  It is beginning to feel like spring and most of the snow is gone.  We so need more snow, winter is still here.
I hate the fact I work as a contract employee, I do love what I do, but my check this month will be small since there was not school for the last two weeks of December and I get paid for that time on this months check.  I do not like it when I can not work.  This last week was finals schedule for CUSD where I work the most.  They do not use many substitutes during this week since teachers do not want their classes to take finals while they are gone.  I worked on Friday this week.  I do enjoy that once in a while but it seems lately that it has been too much.  I think this is because we just got off of Winter break and now another week where we do not get to work.  I am thinking about finding a job on line where I could work it from home for times like this, but I doubt I would find much work for these times.
Since today is Saturday and the church we are at has services on Saturday and Sunday.  We have one tonight and two on Sunday.  I guess that is how my weekends always go.  On weeks I do not work, those days I do know I will get to go to town.  I hope it ends up being a good weekend.
