Winter Wonderland
Dec. 27th, 2004 11:57 amIt is very pretty outside my office. There is fluffy white snow on the ground, and the sun is shining. It just all so sparkly. Mind, I wasn't thinking the snow was so great last night as I was driving through the storm.
The holiday is over, and I managed to enjoy most of it, which was definitely a question going in. Turns out it's very hard to be glum when you get to hold a cutie patootie niece. ( Warning - the Surgeon General has determined that viewing the picture within may lead to death by cuteness. )
I got an assortment of loot in addition to the electic leg o'sex, including a teensy FlatFoto digital camera. It's not a great camera (maximum res is one megapixel, the lens is tiny, and there's no way to view the photos until you download them), but it's only 3/8" thick and the length and width of a credit card, so it's very handy to carry. The picture of the niece above was taken with it, as was this picture of one of the places my brothers and I used to play.
Yesterday I went down to see Alex. We got a few light flurries mid-afternoon, so we did an early dinner so I could get on the road before the real heavy stuff started coming down. ( The best laid plans... )
Today I am at work, but after 5:00, I am off for the rest of the year. Woo!
