What's that sound I hear?
Why, its ice sliding off my roof...its 33 here and predicted to be 48 by this afternoon...the Ice Storm 2007 is apparently at an end and we could not be any happier...there is still plenty of ice out there right now, but the icicles are dripping and you can actually see the ground now...offices are open, folks are going back to work (Brian left at 10:00) and while its supposed to rain every day until next Tuesday, I can deal w/ rain...My left buttock is rather sore, and apparently I tweaked my left wrist and inside elbow as I fell and grabbed the door handle...but its very minor and I'm functioning at 99.99%...we ventured out last night and walked down to a mexican restaurant at the end of our road..it was packed with people who were as stir crazy as we were...
Hey Darlene- Your email is bouncing, my response isn't getting to you...send me another email address por favor...
but there was no ice on the ground, so it wasn't hazardous..it was rather nice to get out of the house...and we never lost power, not once...I've got pics, I'll post them in a minute...
So today is back to work for me..I like having a routine and now I feel like I'm ready to go again...
Alas, I've decided not to do Bead and Button this year...registration was Tues at noon and I had completely forgotten..(I was knee-deep in doing my sales tax at the time)...I had looked and looked and this years crop of classes just didn't do anything for me...they are cool and all, but nothing that I felt like I HAD to attend...I don't feel bad about not going, I can of course still fly up and spend some time w/ my friends, but I've got some other things I'm focusing on right now, so its all good...maybe next year...maybe a different show...who knows...
Alrighty then, lemme get on those pics and I'll be back shortly...woohoo!

Donna, will you attend the Dallas Bead Renassance in May?
Love the basket you wove.

Donna, I'm not sure how to respond to your Ice Storm pictures. Do I chuckle or just tilt my head to the left a little, nod and say to myself, "Well, it is Austin, Texas, not Minnesota."

A little sand and a little salt and you should be moving around like nothing happened.

OK...you're cracking me up...the prediction for Cleveland today is 15 inches of snow. I thought you Texan's were suppose to be tough :))
