Changing my main blogging posts

As a part of simplifying my life, I'm going to be updating only one blog for a while. This one will go on a short vacation or perhaps, a long one. My Shady Elm Farm blog is slightly more personal but has a nice format and makes me always post at least ONE photo every time so that makes it a little fun.

Cold, Cold, Cold and indoor games

So today has been a typical winter day. The wind is blowing severely, there is two or three inches of fresh snow outside and I believe the highest I saw the temp go to was 6 degrees. Delightful. So besides my outdoor chores of loading up our furnace, shoveling off the boardwalk and car and feeding the animals in the garage . . . I have not ventured out of doors today. Doug's commute this morning was a lovely 3 1/2 hours. And I am working on our finances so I can file our taxes at the end of the month and uploading photos to sell things on craigslist.

I did get to play Memoir 44 with Josiah for the first time although his instructions seemed oddly in his favor and I really didn't know what was going on for most of the game. I may want to do a little research on that before I play and get beaten next time.

Not an ideal day maybe. I'm trying to be more positive in 2010 so even though my jaw is still hurting from my sinus infection and we are all stuck at home (at least it's warm indoors) I'm thankful for little things like indoor games and puzzles. I do need to clean the house too. I'll get organized tonight and do a run through tomorrow maybe;). Have a nice weekend.
