so like so many others we've been snowed in awhile.. as someone who loves the snow this was a special treat, but i must say, ice is really not fun at all.
& this particular thaw was a tad traumatizing in its suddenness & severity. like we were caught under a giant ice machine pelting out ice-cubes on us & our house, only the ice-cubes were big. like throwing glass coke bottles at our skylights & windows from all the giant surrounding fir trees. as an infj my nervous system is hypersensitive & i felt like a kitty with my big eyes in, hearing every sound hitting all around the house & roof at once, till i thought i'd run down the hall really fast & get under the bed.. but i didn't, & we made it through intact, without any cracks or breaking.. (well, the house did anyway.)
as we've had to be creative in filling our time these days our valentine's day was spent having yet another board game match between me & mr dad. i'd won the last 2, so mr dad chose the games this time.. & this time he won!
(pix here in my around the bend photo album)
a special post over at the lost & found includes a coloring book i created out of some of my ghost gallery art as a valentine to anyone interested.. i baked mr dad his traditional marionberry pie & raven has chosen the games for the next game match ;)
have i mentioned i need a new radiohead album?
