It's Snowing!!!!!!!!!

So Happy December 1st. It's my husband's 42 birthday and he's in Singapore. Boo. That makes me a little sad, but I just went to let the fat beagle in and SNOW!!! What a great way to start December. Remember, I am a ski bunny and will spend as much time attempting to face plant myself in a snow bank as possible this winter. Well, until mid-January when I'm having a "procedure" done. Gr. I'll miss the rest of the season...

Birthday boy called last night (as it was this morning over yonder) and that was nice. He'll be back soon and won't leave again for about 2 months. YES! Lots of wink wink, nudge nudge, say no more, say no more.

It's also my mother's 71st birthday. She lives across the driveway from us in an in-law apartment. It's the greatest thing ever. She's here with me (and, Lord that woman is spry) she still works as a nurse and my kids have her in their lives everyday. That could be a bad thing, but my mom's this mellow former Ashram hippie who travelled India and Nepal in her late 50's. She's wicked cool. A little tooooo wishy washy sometimes, but I balance her with my zinging bitchiness.


In any event I'm attempting to neaten up a bit before I host a blog party thing-a -ma-bob tomorrow for Advent. I only know one of the blogger's involved and, well, I think my recent posts may cause some jaw dropping and brow raising...so in an inane effort to provide a buffer, I'm putting up pictures of snowmen and Christmas elves. You'll love 'em. I swear.

Happy December! The snow is covering all the leaves that the lawn guy hasn't removed and we are currently makin' mulch all around our house. Yes!
