Well now...

How often do I get to post on a Leap Day? I've been blogging (we used to call it Online Journaling) for nearly 10 years now (anniversary in April) and I don't think I ever have posted on a February 29th. How exciting was my Leap Day? Well, I stayed home from my usual Friday night crop because the roads are frightening (good thing, too, it started hailing around 7p) and I needed to make Tess's birthday cake...SIX girls coming over Sunday to celebrate and things are gearing up.

E is still sick, he went to the doctor's today but nothing more than constricted bronchial tubes. He's had a history of asthma so when it went to his chest (mine went to my sinuses), he was in a lot of pain. He's actually been home from work since Tuesday, poor guy.

He was so terrific all last weekend when I was laid flat by this bug, that I didn't mind staying home and helping out with the kids tonight. Especially with the driving being so bad.

Okay, now that I've figured out why I can't blog my photos from Flickr over to my old blog, CreativeExile (not that I am at ALL happy about it), I guess I'll settle in here.

I've been running outside for the last two days whenever I've had a chance, to catch pictures of the ice storm that hit the midwest on Monday.

I've been learning a lot about my camera in the process. I've also taken a number of extremely phallic photos--apparently my subconscious is trying to tell me something.

My husband is not at all pleased with the "icy peni$" photos I've shared with him...but he was happy to suggest that he may be a solution to my problem. Or perhaps I'm a solution to his?
