check out the snow load on those trees!

starting to clear though.

Of course, now the forcasts include a LOT MORE SNOW over the next week. Whoopie! Who would think that I live here, huh? I am SUCH a wuss about the snow – well, I don’t mean that I don’t go out in or anything like that, cause I do. That is, my CAR goes out in in. I don’t go out and PLAY in it – that would mean putting on LAYERS of clothes and BOOTS for pity’s sake, you know. And, it c(w)ould mean getting COLD and/or FROSTBIT or something like that, you see.

I am MUCH too fond of my skin just where it is, dontchaknow? heh.

Anyway – enjoy the pictures. In fact, why don’t you all come up here and enjoy the weather, too? There’s plenty to go around.

weather, that is.

and, to think, I might HAVE to go back to Anchorage next week – for a one day conference – maybe – we’ll see – hopefully soon – maybe not. How cryptic is THAT?

see ya!

Suggested Reading

January 2nd, 2007 / Categories: Moose Nuggets, Reading List / 1 Comment »

I picked the book up in Anchorage. B&N didn’t have the first of the two, but I was able to put my happy little grubs on @Home for the Holidays by Meredith Efken.

If you have ever been a part of any sort of email group – (you know the sort – someone sends and email, and then the group responds to it, each adding their own little twists and turns along the way) – well, you will certainly understand the humor behind the words.

I have laughed so hard today while reading it – and I am nearly 2/3s of the way through it now – that hubby moose surely thought I was losing my mind. I would wipe the tears from my eyes and put my hand over my mouth (thus to stifle somewhat the loud GUFFAWS bellowing forth – too little, too late!) and mutter “sorry, honey” and then read the next section and have to do it all over again.

Lessa is waiting to read it and I am sure that Ladybug will want it as well. Sadly, in this account anyway, I have to go back to work tomorrow. And, I have to find a Soldotnan willing to be interviewed sometime tomorrow also . . . So, I will probably not finish it until Wednesday – at the earliest. Well, we will see, won’t we?

It really is a page turner.

Now – go and buy – and, if you find a copy of SAHM I Am also by Meredith, pick that one up, too. I am still looking for it.
