So we didn't get much of the snow we were promised two weeks ago. It was cold and wintry and we got several inches, but nowhere near the 15+ inches we were promised. Very disappointing. But it was a great day to be out running errands, as no one else was out and about.
But, on the upside, the latest (and unbelievably lame) congressional sex scandal was our very own congressman, Chris Lee!! YEAH!!! Buffalo has made it to the big time!!!!! If you call sending a picture of oneself with no shirt and flexing one's bicep a sex scandal. I would personally call it cheesy and lame, and while the guy appears to be slime, I'm not at all sure that by congressional standards that's even close to a scandal. So either the guy has far worse stuff that has yet to hit the fan, or he's way to much of a weenie to be in congress to begin with. I suspect a fair number of congressfolks do far worse than than this on the way in to work each day and you don't see them resigning! Plus, it was a potential sex scandal with a woman! That's a novel twist. Maybe that's why he was out of there so fast.....the Republican party couldn't stand the idea of a sex scandal with someone of the opposite sex! I think he set the record for how quick it went from when the story hit to his resignation. It was about 2 hours! And I just got my voter registration card, so will be able to vote for his replacement!
My cough is nearly gone, sometimes. So hopefully the pneumonia is far behind me now and it just may be time to start hitting the treadmill again. I started a 12 week program at the Y, back in November and I think it will be more like the 20 week program.....oh well.
She loved Curious George.
Who wouldn't love Elmo?
She got here first Tattoo! Unfortunately the piercing place wasn't ope so that will have to wait.
Our bar before......
This was our basement bar before. Clearly one of the ugliest things ever. SO. using stuff laying around the house (ceiling paint and an old bathroom mirror) to brighten up that corner of the basement AND make it NOT hideous. Let me know what you think. I still have some of the red fabric if you want it....I pawned the mirrored tiles (and many broken ones) off one on someone on Craig's list.
And after....
Kat is going to give Tae Kwon Do a shot. We will see. In her first and only personal lesson, she spent most of the time hiding underneath the chairs in the room. Maybe this week will go better?Her swimming on the other hand, is going great. I'm amazed at how natural the underwater swimming thing seems to come to her. She still struggles to keep her body on top of the water, as she can only focus on kicking OR moving her arms, but not both. But underwater, she does both with ease
