just finished shrink wrapping my living room window, and for the first time can sit near it without shivering! Should have done that a lot sooner.
Old buildings, but nice neighbourhood!
Wind is starting to pick up already in advance of the storm. (-11c)

I forgot write this earlier, when I got home from work I was talking to my wife and we realized LC snuck down into the basement, I went down to get him and he was in the room that is closed off from the cats, I told him to get up the stairs, and I notice the cabinets that were on the wall had fallen off at some point. My heart dropped when I saw it laying there, because that is where I store all my fragile Christmas decorations, I was almost in tears I couldn't even think. I put on my shoes and started going through what I thought was going to be carnage. I did lose some but all my village houses were fine and the Santa praying at the baby Jesus was fine here is the picture http://mymerrychristmas.com/forum/album.php?albumid=542&pictureid=5633 We were quite lucky not to lose more.

that would upset me too! Glad to hear most of it survived and your village will rise again. I love your Santa figure with the baby Jesus.

Us, too ... we've been known to fix hot dogs and watch DVDs of classic Red Sox games. I also like to catch some of the Puppy Bowl, especially the half-time show with the kittens.

Only 30 posts to go to reach 3,600, but I don't think I can do it. Even though it is still early, I think I will sign off until tomorrow. You guys are the greatest. We all did a wonderful job in January 2011!!!

Seawaters · Jan 31, 2011

Okay, Judge Judy!!! Totally love the halftime kittens!!!

good question! I do recall hearing something about heat and a wish for some snow!

reminds me of the saying "be careful what you wish for, you just might get it"

Good Morning Everyone!!!!!! After 4 days of battling a stomach bug I think I may be finally over it. I am feeling pretty lazy after not really eating for 4 days but there is to much to do today to just lay around. We are expecting a major winter storm here over the next couple of days with up 1.5 inches of ice across central Indy. I only have a half of bag of salt left so I will be heading out here shortly to search for a store that still has some left. Then I need to run by the grocery store to pick up some stuff in case we lose power. I hope everyone has a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Stay safe, friend. I will be thinking of all of you the next few days.
