Snow Tease

Man weather events are all the rage! It draws more folks to the television than the OJ trial i do believe...and I admit I'm one of them. I never watch the news...unless I want to hear the weather. I dont know why I do it! I fall prey to their crystal ball fortune telling...even though I know they are half guessing. Even with all the fancy gizzmos they use these days to predict weather...they sure are wrong a lot! And by the time it is supposed to snow (3 - 4 days after they start teasing you) I am downright looking forward to a blizzard! Bring it on! I have been getting excited over here...hoping to play in it..and enjoy a winter wonderland. I have postponed major travel and bought extra groceries....so let it snow damn it!



Then the long awaited hour comes and...no snow. In the middle of the night I peak out the window...sure is a draft coming in....but no snow! Morning comes and you guessed it...no snow...well unless you count a dusting. What a bummer! Why all the hype (oh ya...$$...silly me)? They say its cause a dry air pocket developed over the area...so although everyone around us got it...we didn't. I don't care what you call it...where is my snow?



The good news is....it IS snowing..and I think we may have over an inch even. The grass is almost covered in a blanket of the white stuff and my sour puss is getting jolly again. I really need to stop watching the weather forecasts though...they just set me up for disappointment. I would rather be surprised!

oh we are not going to lie to Grant about Santa...but I feel like he can still enjoy him...or from the looks of it...not enjoy him. Its a good thing to fear something this creepy. I had to smooth talk dear husband to allow this event. He think it is absurd...and it kinda is..but this was free and was so much fun! You should have seen the cookies and punch! These pics were mainly to appease the grandparents..they will love it! I'm glad cause its all they are getting for xmas :) (not really..they are the only ones we buy for).



Happy weekend!

The Arizona Candy Climbing Girlie Bits Continuum Post



whatsuuuuuuuuuppp?

Shew this day has FLOWN by. Dont you hate it when work gets in the way of bloggin.

Talked with Arizona tea just a bit ago. I was disappointed they never apologized but was happy that they want to do testing on the UFO to determine what it is and why it is there. Her initial feeling was that it is indeed growth that occurred do to an air leak in the bottle. They use no preservatives. I just find it hilarious...that just after posting about my yearning for a scoby...one lands on my lips! Of course I dont really know whats in this scoby...so i shant save it. However...it is just SO coinkidink (co-ink-ee-dink)- term i often use for things that fall between divine intervention, self fulfilling prophecy and sometimes irony, originally inspired by the book Celestine Prophecy.

Grant is wonderful, fabulous and delicious. His nose is still not running! He does has a very very mild dry cough...but thats only like 3 times a day. I think he is fighting something which is cool by me! Im still giving him an echinachae suspension to give him extra fighting power and of course lots of mama milk (which i read that beyond 18 months can give still him 31% of calories and 38% of protein a day!). Over the weekend we worked on the colors yellow and blue. He doesnt have it down pat yet but he sure does like saying the words! His yellow is DARN cute! Ive tried to count how many times a day he gets hurt...but its impossible. Im guessing somewhere between 10 & 20 ouchhies a day! Its hard being a toddler..very clumsy! Lots of stubbed toes and head bumps. Especially now that he is climbing..oh boy is he climbing! If I dont watch him he is on top the kitchen table!

Made a an appt for friday to have my girlie bits inspected. oh so much to look forward to this month! However...besides the fact that its been over 3 years since ive gone, my arm pit is sore again...and it would be a smart thing to have it looked at before too much time passes. I might insist on some blood work just to be proactive.

gearing up for my big candy cane hunt this saturday! its hard to believe this is the 4th annual already! have i really been here this long? goodness. im excited to see grant participate. should be adorable..will post pics!oh crap...just remembered i need to empty santas mailbox...so i can start penning personalized letters from the north pole. the ultimate irony here is that although i play santa...my son wont get the pleasure of believing in him. however...he can enjoy him as a story. i would just feel wired lieing to him. how does that work at your house?

oh...im FINALLY reading The Continuum Concept by Jean Liedloff! GREAT READ thus far. Im hoping to get DH to read it too. Will review once I finish and hopefully wrap my brain around it.

hope you are having a phenomenal day!
