Did I mention that we are having another snow day today? I spent almost all day yesterday cleaning, scrubbing and/or organizing along with baking. It was a busy day, but well spent. I find that I don't mind having the kids home so much if the house is orderly. We invited a friend over today so that will keep them happy for a while. I think I might get out the scrapbooking stuff later and perhaps we'll make cookies too. Might as well make the best of this being trapped inside stuff. The snow if falling quite heavily at the moment. Our front yard looks somewhat like a war-zone. Deep holes, walls built up, mysterious lumps and half covered sleds that have been left out. I try to ignore it as there is nothing to be done. I envy my neighbors with no kids and a fenced in yard. Their snow has never been disturbed and it looks beautiful; virgin, freshly fallen snow. Ah well. My back yard looks pretty at least.

In other news, I've been enjoying They Might Be Giants video podcasts all morning. They do a weekly video podcast for kids, along with their normal podcast for adults. I love that TMBG does children's music. I love listening to their kid CD's as much as the boys do, and it's fun to see them enjoying one of my favorite bands so much.

I feel better today than I have in a while. More on an even keel, less flustered. This is a good thing.

Your yard sounds much more interesting than your neighbor's. Your's sounds like it would be fun to look at and try to figure out what was made before it got covered with snow. Just plain old smooth snow makes me want to run through it and mess it up :-)
