We were in a blizzard warning, or blizzard watch, or prepare yourself HERE COMES THE WIND, or church and 4H cancelled or something like that. I was confused. But then I saw Marshall hunkered down in the chicken coop and figured something must be brewing. The critters always know.
More creative concentration in full swing...
Then, instead of a blizzard, the sillies arrived. What else do you do on a so called Snow Day when someone "accidentally" smashes a plant?
Mom: "Hey, all you need is a toga!"
Kid: "What's a toga?"
I call this one: "Brave children onward through the snow"
Alternately titled: "Mom kicked them straight out the front door"
Kids outside, peaceful house inside, my Ellie slinks out of the attic temporarily.
Two hours later, he's nowhere near ready to come in yet... and by the way, for all my Southern friends, it was so warm out the dog was panting. True story.
Prelude to bedtime. How do you comb a Dad's hair when he hasn't got any hair to comb?
It's obvious what this is, right?
What, you can't tell?
Hello. It's a Christmas Tree.
The commute to my virtual office is a short one. Blowing snow and ice has Interstate shut down? Whatever.
Not all online chat agents barely speak English and live in India. Sometimes they live in the middle of North Dakota. Some forward-looking companies want their customers to have someone knowledgeable to walk the aisles of their online stores with them, except, in a less creepy way. And if you (by some act of God, or perhaps lack of regard for normal safety standards that most humans have) smashed your Nikon D90 at an off-road race in SoCal... I'll promise we'll get along okay, even though I love Canon. And I'll tell you the Mack Diamond warranty might be nice for "normal and abnormal wear and tear" but it's too bad it'll only cover your gear and not your personal injuries. And then I'll sell you a sweet new Nikon camera.
I am really loving this job, it's such a perfect fit for where I am in life right now.
Oh, and dual monitors? Kicks butt.

So glad you still love Canon, and the job sounds sweet. I love your commute, and your dual monitors! Did that come with the job? :-)
Always love your commentary. It's so sweet the kitty appears when it's quiet. I don't blame her.
Enjoy the snow a bit for me! :-D
Th "toga" shot is priceless! :D And the open-mouth concentration. Some of mine have to stick out their tongue. Kills me.
Nice "blizzard". ;) We were supposed to get hit by "Nemo" or whatever they were calling it.. and yeah. We barely got anything. Then it rained yesterday and melted a lot of it. ;)
YAY for loving your job! :D That's awesome.
Love your job too. Sure beats my 45 minute (each way) commute in Canada, so... weather like yours.
Working on my dual monitors right now. Who'd have guessed it was so easy to do?!
Love love love the kitties. And kicking the kids outside to play? Priceless!
