Made it to work by walking in the streets -- very few sidewalks shoveled.
I can only complain so much about that, having done a halfassed job on my own.
Snow-ready hiking boots, heavy coat, hat & etc make such a happy difference.
And boys -- let's watch the swearing.

I hurled too, but it was my own fault. Too much expensive chocolate at one sitting. It was stupid, but I've never even really had a hangover. On one level, I was probably really overdue for something like that to happen. Still, the visuals were quite shocking and hopefully will not be repeated. IoN, I'm wearing my "What Would Lester Freamon Do?" t-shirt.

Also, I frequently get text messages from Tracfone advising me of various offers - I think those do not count against the minutes.
That's correct -- offers from Tracfone aren't deducted from your minutes. FTR, I have had Tracfone as my regular provider since 2004, and have been reasonably pleased with them. My Tracfone is my only phone, and it's worked out just fine for me.
Oh no, Cash! I hope it's just a 24-hour thing. Poor you.
Our flights today (OKC to Atlanta, Atlanta to Albany) seem to still be happening, so hopefully I will get to see my family again soon! I didn't really miss being with them too much on Christmas Day itself, but it still doesn't really feel like the holidays until I get to see my parents, lounge around in their house, and try to stuff all their presents into my suitcase for the flight home.

stuck in NH. Shoulda bailed Sunday, damnit. I don't exactly have many vacation days left before they start anew in May.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My car is pretty much buried in snow. This is going to take a while to dig out.

Because books.
We got off pretty easily -- only six to seven inches here, looks like. But it's windy and freezing.
Oh, ugh, Cash. I hope it passes quick.

It was also snowing here in Prague! But only an inch or so.

We got next to no snow and the sun is bright right now, but the wind is outrageous!

Cashmere, I hope your stomach feels better immediately.
We're all up and moving already. Noah and Grace have a bug of some sort. And, for the first time in weeks we are cookie free. I think I need to remedy that immediately and make some more.
I finished a photo book from A&I (Suzi, I thought it was a royal pain, but maybe I think that because of gathering the photos which took days?) and I'll pick it up in Hollywood in a week or two. It was fun to look through pictures of the twins -- and essentially I just did it for their 2nd and 3rd years. I'll do another one in April of this past year.

Ugh, Cash- my sister had a similar thing after her youngest was up all night Wednesday night/Thursday morning.
Hoping we don't get it...
