kids are home again...

...and loving it.

it is thursday and day 2 of having a house full of wet boots and gloves and hats and empty hot chocolate mugs all over-but i am loving it. at one point i think we had 9-thirteen year olds in our house last night. they were having a blast. the snow was a bit on the heavy side to shovel, but i had the kids helping and a neighbor so we made out fine, just a little achey today. i don't think i have ever seen so much ice before. (i think i like the snow better). our vehicles were so frozen that one of the kids had to crawl in through the back hatch and start it so it would thaw and we could get the doors open.

we were just praying that we wouldn't lose power...i think tim would have driven to the carolina's if we had to go without heat for any length of time. we were lucky-the power lines held. tim's two major ailments seem to be getting much better. we go to the doctor tomorrow. he was bumming a bit yesterday because i wouldn't let him out in the snow. i told him we could go for a walk out in the snow today...but no shoveling for him.

well, i must be going...time for more advil for these sore muscles. (i am getting old) have a great day.

thanks for checking in.

tim and tammy
