On My Mind
In bullet form:
- It’s snowing sideways.
- Shortman is out snowboarding.
- He took my car to go snowboarding.
- The hill is 40 miles away.
- His phone is dead or turned off.
- My fingernails may not survive until he gets back.
- I’d like to go finish reading my book.
- I’m about 1/2 way through.
- I am reading a new policies and procedures manual instead.
- I know you’re envious.
- I did get to stay in Michigan this week though.
- Santa brought the cats a new toy mouse.
- The dog killed and ate it.
- Yes, even the plastic bits.
- I’m wondering if the stuffing will reappear.
- Y’know. Sometime.
- We’re supposed to go see these girls tonight.
- If my car makes it home.
- I just wrote a big freakin’ check to the University for the winter semester.
- If I kill him for not charging his phone and letting me know he’s okay in this BLIZZARD, can I get a refund?
- No, really. It’s snowing harder now.
- Shit. Seriously. White-out conditions.
- Okay, it’s stopped now.
- I’m making progress on my knitting project.
- If it’s wearable, I’ll show you when it’s done.
- If I can figure out how to end it.
- Kind of like this post.
—- Here, say hi to the cutest nephew in the world. He loves his Aunt Ree Ree. —-

Edited to say: Shortman made it home. In one piece. We made it to the basketball game. They lost.






My aunt’s dog once ate a reel of cotton. It um, appeared, but only a few inches at a time. Ever after that, the dog would go bananas when they used a pair of scissors.
True story.
Hmmm… you were a bit on edge, weren’t you?

I would be on edge as well. I get freaked out when Conor drives in the rain! And he is 36!
And HOLY eyelashes little boy, jealous.
Whatcha drinking on New Years eve? Me prosecco and mango juice.
I miss my friend.

it won’t reappear. Take it from an expert. Boo ate my coffee table and it was never seen again.
I’m more hoping that Shortman reappears soon from snowboarding; the toy mouse may take a day or two to make it out of the dog. What a cutie nephew! Why do little boys get the most gorgeous eyelashes?

So, we had snow like that on Saturday. And I stupidly decided to drive up north to my brother’s house, which is practically in Wisconsin, which means it gets WAY more snow than the city. When I got closer to his house, it was a blizzard. You couldn’t see more than 5 feet in front of your face. And none of the roads were plowed. It was SCARY!
I don’t care how long you live in snowy climates, you never get used to driving in it. At least I don’t!

Why, yes! That IS the cutest nephew in the world! Ok, maybe a tie with mine.

I’m glad Shortman made it back in one piece.

Are you enjoying Under the Dome? I haven’t read King in a long time because I was just sick of him but I am really enjoying this one!
