• It's snowing!

  I'm so excited. It's snowing and I got out of work early. And it's snowing! and my son and his girlfriend are on their way from New York City on the train and I am finally going to meet the amazing Shana! My younger son is not in the habit of describing the women with whom he interacts as Girlfriend or use the L word: love. But this woman is different. He has definitely waxed romantically about her. Uses the G and L words. I am really happy for him. I can't wait to meet her. They'll be staying here through Friday morning when I take them back to the train in Rutland. I want to make a good impression and I want to make her feel welcome. 

  Bonus points: I have Thursday off to spend time with them.

  It's snowing and my husband is such an idiot. He was outside snowblowing the over one foot of accumulation in the driveway. And once again he wore the thinnest, rattiest gloves he owns. And stayed out too long. Again. He says he's learned his lesson and will be getting heavy duty mittens. He's out there again, shoveling this time, and he's got the ratty gloves on again. It's like working with the learning disabled some days with him.

  Blessings abound
