Jesse, you've inspired me to buy this for me and this for the kids. As my grandmother keeps reminding me, Facebook is not a baby book.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am glad that things I am aware of, but don't actually do, are inspirational! You should probably actually be inspired by lisah....

So, the local schools just cancelled for tomorrow and Friday. I wonder if I'll have a snowday Friday! We're only supposed to get a foot, so I'm betting no.

Ah, that's what I get for being a skimmer. Sorry, lisah!

Hahahah! (Also--"only" a foot of snow?!?!)

I am being lazy and not even enjoying it that much. Though I finally figured out I should really take a painkiller to make my legs stop hurting. Also, USA, why a Law and Order marathon TOMORROW? I want it TODAY, not NCIS.

We went to Joshua Tree today, just for the day, which is perfect. All the NPs have Junior Ranger programs which our kids love. So we did that.

We also made Grace take a hike. There is a dam in the park with a little pool of water. It's about a 1.1 to 1.3 mile loop. It was hard for her, but we had a good time. Here's Grace at the beginning of the hike: [link] and Noah hamming it up: [link]

Oh god I hadn't even considered that schools might close for snow. That would be the worst.

I am watching NCIS! Because why not?

(Also--"only" a foot of snow?!?!)

Well, a foot total that's going to fall between tomorrow and Friday. It'll be a clusterfuck, but possibly not enough to close. Especially since my work apparently usually goes by the nearby university, and of course they are on break.

(Also, I didn't mean that earlier post to sound snotty, because I did link to some journal....)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My New Year's resolution this morning was to have today's hangover be my only one of the year.

Heh. That should be my resolution, too.
