It's interesting that as soon as you get settled, back into routine after a storm, the wind kicks up and life changes again....

Mom and Terry braved the icy roads to get me a new tree from superstore!

I didn't want to put up the big tree as it takes up half the trailer, so I opted for a 4 footer instead.

Thanks Mom and Terry!

feeling a wee bit guilty

my car is under 2 feet of snow, the highway has not been plowed and the wind is causing near white-out conditions.
I decided not to risk the drive into work.
So I phoned in and discovered everyone else made the trek. 2 girls from Abbotsford, 1 from Maple Ridge, 1 doctor from North Van, the other from White Rock, and all the patients have showed up.
Huh.
Feeling like a wimp....

kids never seem to care how cold it is outside....

So who's all coming to this thing?

send me a quick email if you can make it....it started as a boy/girl party, but the boys are dropping like flies...so we might be having a girl's night!

Don't forget...

more about my fridge...

I made Andrew KD for dinner.
He didn't eat much of it, and I wasn't about to touch the stuff.

Andrew hates leftover KD and I don't blame him.
But I couldn't bring myself to throw away 3/4 of a box of perfectly good KD. So I sealed it in some tupperware and put it in the fridge.
I know full well that it won't get eaten.
So I'm waiting until it goes bad, then I'll throw it out and it won't seem like such a waste.

I'm wondering how many of us have tupperware filled with stuff we should have just gotten rid of in the first place, but instead are just letting them rot.....

I had dinner with friends tonight.

At one point the evening's conversation turned to photography, business opportunities, exploring new projects. As I drove home after I was amazed at the amount of excuses I was able to come up with. Couldn't do it full time, don't have alot of spare time, scared of producing mediocre work, fear of disappointing people.......the list is endless.

Kind of like the list of why I didn't go to Africa.....
