First Snowman of the Winter of 2011
The first snowman of the year has been born!
We have about 2 inches on the ground in about 5 hours.
I love shoveling the snow while it is snowing.
It is quiet and everything is white.
Beautiful night to be outside.
It's December
I am looking outside and there is a little snow and I am glad we don't have feet of snow on the ground. It has been a nice gradual move into winter and I appreciate that. We are supposed to get more snow today but probably only an inch or two.
I sing in a church choir and last night was our Lessons and Carols service. I was nervous because I had a little line to sing by myself. The concert was good. I wish that I could hear it for myself because as the singer you know the parts that were missed. I had decided not to talk about the negative parts and just focus on the positive. It is always a nice way to start the Advent season.
Lots to do in December and as a single parent for most of this month, I will be relying on friends, grandparents, and surrogate grandparents to get me and the kids through. I know even by ourselves we would be fine but with help we all get through with flying colors.

Blog-Anniversary
It is hard to believe that another year has passed. In November 2007, we were parents of a 3 year old, waiting for our next baby to come in January of 2008. Now we have a 7 and an almost 4 year old. Our lives include first grade and potty training.
In other news, I just found another new blog. Aiming Low has some pretty fun stuff on it.
We are expecting a little snow today after not having any precip for a long time. We'll see if it materializes. I have my doubts.

Quote of the Day
Mom. I don't want to wear an eye patch, because then I would be eyepatched. And one of my eyes would be dark.
All said very earnestly as we laid in his bed at 10pm.

Thank Goodness It's Friday
It is officially Friday as I begin this entry.
Laundry is folded around me, dishes are soaking, and I am hoping I actually get 6 hours of sleep tonight without a small person interrupting my night.
Tonight I watched some really good performances on 'The Sing Off'. It is hard to watch some of them because they are just off but when it is good - it is really nice!
I also watched the finale of 'Top Shot' this week. Another fun show that could do without all the drama. It is weird to watch drama between a bunch of guys that mostly have military backgrounds or are exuding machismo in some way.
My husband actually said something about purchasing a tv. Then I couldn't believe that I actually jumped on it and said 'yes'! It would be so nice to sit in my comfy chair watching a screen that is bigger than 14 inches. Now I need to work on a couch...
Hope you are looking forward to the weekend. I am!
