OMG...disaster...devastation....

The attitude in my house was as if we were doomed and needed to break out the survival kit. Today the phone rang and we had to rush back home... you see a snow machine knocked over something important and we lost phone service and the INTERNET....FOR DAYS!!!! What did we ever dooo??? John ran to the internet cafe' ...to play mobsters.... and then we celebrated Byrd's 11 birthday, shopped, math homework, played life, watched a movie, moved into freshly painted bathroom, washed all the hanging clothes and hung them in the new bedroomcloset, lots of good ol' famliy stuff!

Me Me

The Simple Woman Me Me...from Klondike Kate.


Outside My Window...
Dusky morning, telling me its overcast with snow on the ground, its quiet, all I can see is the under boughs of the spruce tree in the front yard, so big.

I am thinking...
it takes time.

I am thankful for...
distractions.

From the kitchen...
the sounds of a child making breakfast.

I am wearing...
sweats, a long sleeve T, wool socks, and a Sweatshirt.

I am creating...
I am going to create, a mess in the bathroom. Sanding down the tongue and grove, so I can re-stain it.

I am going...
to hang home and do chores.

I am reading...
"The Shinning", again, it was assigned reading for my 9th grader?

I am hoping...
Shane's girl's are all right.

I am hearing...
John coming in from the garage.

Around the house...
is quiet.

One of my favorite things...
bed.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week:
Bathroom and closet remodel, make lungs, laundry, pack, Principal's cabinet, travel, funeral, family, travel, Girl Scouts, rest, finish lungs, dentist appointment for Rose.

Shane taught me...

.. there is not a left sock nor a right sock...
they are just socks.
