But It's Good for You

It was the last day of the kids' Winter Break.  I wanted to make it really special.

"Hey, kids, let's go get our H1N1 vaccines!!"



Yep, I did that.

The Morning After

Hay yawl!  Where in the world have I been???  Livin' la vida loca??  Uh, that about sums it up.  Anywho, I have been WAY LAX in posting my 365 pix.  I've been shooting, just not posting lately.  Read my other blog for details.  Cuz I know you really need to keep up with me.

Okay, so here we go.  Remember our blizzard WAY back a couple of weeks ago?  Okay, not blizzard, but really cool, really fast, really over with quickly snowstorm?  Matt and I, really speedily, built a snowman after I got home from work.  It's not every year we get snow.  Our guy was awesome.

I woke up early the next morning to catch a few more photos before our Winter Wonderland disappeared.  That disappearance occured by lunch time, seriously.  But this guy was hanging in there.

It looks like he partied a little too hard the night before.

Goin' Green

I recycle.  Sometimes it just takes me a little time to get everything into the recycle bin at home.

A bit of a backlog here.

Specs

I have reading glasses all over the house.  Many are from the Dollar Store.  But for work, I need something that looks very proper for a law office.  You know, glasses that look important.

Girl's gotta have good looking specs, you know.

You Have A Point

A couple of years ago, we went on a 24-day family vacation out West.  Matt excitedly purchased cactus seeds to grow when we got home.  We planted those seeds and waited.  And waited.  And waited.  Finally, a little teeny tiny cactus started growing.

Then the just-walking little girl of a friend stayed with us for a couple of hours.  She proudly (and quickly) came running into the kitchen with the cactus that Matt had been growing for months.  The upside-down cactus.  Ooops.

When Matt left to visit his dad later that next summer, Mackenzie and I came up with a plan.  We bought a teeny tiny, already grown a bit, cactus in a teeny tiny pot.  We put that pot on the window sill and waited for Matt to return from his summer away.  We told him that his cactus had a growth spurt while he was away.  He almost believed us.

This imposter cactus was repotted last year.  I can't believe how much it has grown.  It's probably close to 4" high now.  Must be my amazing gardening skills.

A Kiss For You

We seem to have these gel window cling things for every occasion.  Oh joy.

I'm Outta Here

I got to leave a little early from work yesterday.  This is what greeted me.

As I made my way home, it seems LOTS of people got to leave a little early from work yesterday.  Traffic was crazy.
