Total Eclipse of the Moon

This is called "SNOW."  Let's all say it together very slowly. S-N-O-W.  Very good.  Above the snow is what we refer to as CLOUDS.  Lunar eclipse was clearly really awesome.  

For people in other parts of the country.

At least I don't have to dream of a white Christmas.

  1. It was super cloudy here, too. I actually stayed up half the night, watching it online.

    I am THAT lame...or wonderful.

  2. Last night it stormed up more rain to fill the lake formerly known as our street.

    We watched the eclipse today on Jeff's i-phone from the comfort of a booth at Shaker's Coffee Shop. We're super back-to-nature like that.

  3. I'm impressed you stayed awake to catch it. I went to bed knowing I could come out to blogland today and find it somewhere.

"I changed my mind, I want a [pony, scooter, bike, Red Rider BB gun]" A close second place winner is, "Can I have a New Year's Eve party?" Then, "Me, too?"

Too Sick to be Sick

I am sick.  Really and truly sick.  I even took a sick day and felt no guilt whatsoever that maybe I wasn't sick enough to have a "sick day."  Because I am.  My 5 year old was sick, too so I took him to the doctor.  I refuse to acknowledge that I'm sick because I don't get sick.  So with absolute glee, my little boy climbed up onto the table, stuck out his tongue and conversed with the doctor.  I heard something about cloudy ears and antibiotics and then I just turned it off. It hurts when sound reaches my eardrums. We drove back home, I turned on the television, brought in the dog, and let the babysitting begin.  I crawled back into bed and swam somewhere between consciousness and unconsciousness.  The kids came home from school.  I might have acknowledged them.  I made chicken noodle soup from scratch.  I couldn't even think.  My husband caught me in a sway and asked what he could do.  I grunted some terse instructi...

I Hate Pants

I wrote this on my Facebook page: Makayla just wandered upstairs and found me reading on the sofa, pants discarded, as usual. She laughed at me. I laughed at her. Then I realized that Makayla Jensen is not my daughter. Go home, Makayla! I'm not putting my pants back on just because you are here!  There are now two camps.

I found an article of 10 Reasons Why I Hate Pants: Best summed up by this Venn Diagram sent by Scott's cousin:
