There’s a reason you are supposed to jot ideas down in a notebook. Especially if you are past the age of oh…say…27 or thereabout…and have a brain like a sieve. There’s so much I wanted to tell you but haven’t made the time to sit down and write it. Now that I’m sitting here? My brain . . . → Read More: Talkin’ About the Weather

Yesterday I stopped to get gas and was shivering beside my car (with Mimi’s words echoing in my head about why on earth we don’t just move to Oregon where the common folk aren’t allowed to pump their own gas) when the woman next to me and I started chatting. As complete strangers often do, our . . . → Read More: Keeping It In Perspective Here in the Pacific Northwest, the weather has been a little…well…nasty. My inbox keeps filling up with high wind advisories, winter storm, thunderstorm and flood warnings. It’s been interesting. But we are tough (well, most of us…the ones that aren’t weather wimps) and we can take it. This morning, I was sitting in Circle Time with my . . . → Read More: Rain Boots I don’t normally consider myself an obsessive person. In fact, I think most people would consider me just a little too laid -back for my own good. I tend to just take things and deal with them as they come. Well…except for one minor little quirk. (Not that I think it’s a quirk, it’s all those . . . → Read More: The Agony Of DeHEAT Today was an absolutely beautiful day. The sun was shining and it was so blissfully warm. All I wanted to do was go outside and bask in it. The only problem was that I had this list…this really long list of things that I needed to do. Ideally, I’d say that I quickly completed my list, . . . → Read More: A Beautiful Day Exactly a week ago, Punxsutawney Phil poked his head out of his burrow and was frightened by his own shadow, thus predicting six more weeks of winter.

After all, Groundhog Day is just one of . . . → Read More: Never Doubt The Groundhog I realize I should be reporting in on our winter adventures. (Apparently we’ve hit the big news as one of my uncles called Dad to give him instructions on how to deal with all this snow!) I’ve been busy though. I’ve had to keep track of the storms. I think it all started when Shaun kept . . . → Read More: Watching The Pot Seattle is experiencing what is being called an “Arctic Blast”. We’ve had snow and freezing temperatures for the last few days. Granted, temperatures in the teens and low twenties might seem wimpy to many of you (and I’ve never denied being a Weather Wimp) but it’s pretty darn cold for us! We are currently on another . . . → Read More: Lessons in Ice Storms A week or so ago, my blog started to snow. I simply had to smile at all the people that were charmed by it, and wanted to know how they could get snow for their blogs too. Now, I would love to be able to share my wonderful secret to bloggy snow, but I have to . . . → Read More: Snow Isn't For Wimps  |
