Snow Day

Schools and libraries are all closed today due to ice, but we have power! The boys are working off some energy by dancing with the Imagination Movers.

The luncheon at church today had a Mardi Gras theme. TS enjoyed the glitz.

The boys made a living room fort tonight. It turned out really well! I'm impressed with their construction skills. More pix at http://www.facebook.com/album.php

Buddy Gettin' Down

utterli-image
You haven't lived until you've watched a guy in a worm suit do the "Stanky Leg". Today was the Tulsa Martin Luther King Parade. Best-attended one I've seen in the seven years I've been going. Buddy was a big hit.

Hey, look, it's a sweater!

utterli-image
At long last, I finished my sleeves and joined them on. The end is in sight. I might actually finish it when there are still cool days to wear it!

My first accessory

utterli-image
TS's hair keeps falling in her eyes, and we don't want to get it cut just yet, so I found this little butterfly clip in Kim's tub o' hair things.

BB, tree-climbing expert

utterli-image
"You know, I've been climbing trees all my life, but not trees near overhead lines. 'Cause if you touch one of those lines, or your weight makes a branch touch one of those lines, that electricity will come straight to you. And that can hurt. It may even kill you. And climbing utility poles is really dumb. So, remember, always look up before climbing, and stay out of trees near overhead lines."



That PSA used to run on Saturday mornings on one of the Topeka TV stations. It was obviously quite effective, since I can still quote it, verbatim, thirty years later.
