Stuff

( To do list for my memory's benefit )

Well, so far we have about 4" of snow on the ground, and it's still snowing. YAY! It's really heavy snow, and it took me about 45 minutes to clear off the driveway, though that was because I was being a perfectionist about it, wanting all the icy stuff gone, too. Benefit of my OCD is that no snow has stuck to the driveway in the two hours since. (Having the temp be just above freezing helps with that, of course.) Whee!

Yesterday was a tired day. I had to struggle to stay awake during class in the morning, and then, after an afternoon of running around doing errands and ending the evening with hanging my work, I was beat. I was really happy to go to bed at 9:30, and even so, I didn't want to get up this morning. But I think that was more to do with the dim quality of the light than exhaustion. Well, that and a warm, cuddly husband.

I did manage to hang most of my show yesterday, thankfully. I was three hangers short, so I need to get those and an extra length of chain, but the pics are at the church, ready to be hung. On the downside, it seems I had too many pics printed and had to bring seven home, as there just wasn't room for them. On the plus side, that means I have work to cover the walls here, again. Yay! (It's been odd having bare walls. Not bad, but odd.)

Oh, and I'd like to thank dickgloucester for more or less sponsoring this show. It would have gone on anyway, as I'd promised to do it, but your recent purchases made it a lot more financially comfortable to do so! (And S, thank you for this semester of school!)

Yesterday's lunch was notable for its tastiness and simplicity. We'd sauteed up some zucchini, onion and red bell pepper in coconut oil the night before, so yesterday I took the leftovers, dumped them on top of a plain beef patty, sprinkled some queso fresco on top and nuked it till hot. Served with half a ripe avocado, and it was really close to perfection. (I've been really enjoying having an avocado or so a day, lately. I'm eager for this next batch to get ripe enough to eat.)

Aaaaaaaaaaaand... I think that's all the time I can spare faffing about. Maybe after I've done my homework I can come back. And hopefully you all (who haven't already) will have posted so I'll have lots to read! *smiles hopefully*

Cheers!

LOL

But Democrats said the amendment would limit access to contraception and infringe on women's rights at a time when Congress needs to focus on the economy and employment. "These aren't the issues we should be debating right now," Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet said on the Senate floor.

Following Thursday's vote, Blunt accused Democrats of playing politics with the issue.


Playing politics with the issue? Seriously? And who started this whole brouhaha in the first place? At least most senators realized that with Obama's compromise, it's a non-issue now. (Not to mention they know where most of their constituents stand on this issue.)

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!
