water pouring down

I should be writing my final bracelet article right now, but I have to mention that this is the second time in the past year that we have had flooding from the floor above. . . except these happened in two different houses.  

So, is there some connection between Fort Wayne, the Price family, upstairs flooding, and who knows what else?  Or does this happen to most people on a frequent basis?

Okay.  Back to writing (which really needs to be paying me more since I'm not getting any byline credit for the freaking work.  Grrr).

Visit with Santa

Tomorrow is Stella's lunch visit with Santa at Sweetwater.  She's pretty excited about it.  The battery in my camera is completely dead (and apparently unable to recharge) so I'll have to make do with camera phone photos and I'll upload them as soon as possible.  We're going to bed so that we can be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for the visit  : )

Snow

It snowed like crazy today!  I don't even think it was in the forecast, or maybe I still have some missing gene that absorbs weather reports.  It is beautiful, and the whole world seems quiet and peaceful.  I love it. 

We bought a tiny little Xmas tree - 3 feet tall - just the right size for Ben (completely allergic to xmas trees, by the way) to dispose of by himself while Stella and I are gone after Xmas.  We're heading down south to pack up the rest of our belongings and visit with family. 

I am not looking forward to the packing of boxes once again, but it must be done.  We'll probably have to give the house a thorough cleaning as well - three boys living there for a year with at least three animals probably leaves the house a little dirty if I had to guess.

I am loving looking at the snowy field. . . enough so, that I'm done blogging about it & I'm just going to enjoy it.  I wish it snowed like this in GA at least once a year.  Right at Christmas would be perfect.
