First Mountain Monday of 09!

I joined the other hordes of mothers at the grocery store today. You could tell who we were. The ones kind of floating around the store, with dreamy smiles on our faces, as we grocery shopped ALONE, while the children were back in their cages classes, where they belong, staying out of our hair learning their lessons like good schoolchildren everywhere. The clerk who checked me out, asked me how I was. I said GREAT, school has started again! The clerk said that the store was much quieter and the moms seemed much happier. I know I was. The boy's doctors appt when fine, we have a blood draw tomorrow, can't wait! ahem. We did some minor med switching in hopes of not killing helping the boy with his moody, defiant little self. At least we have a plan, and that helps.


Sadly, there are no mountain pictures. Not from lack of trying, let me tell you! It was storming most of the day today, so the clouds were covering the mountains. I thought I would travel a bit closer and see if I could catch any pics that way. Well the hill I have to travel on it a bit steep and when I went to go up it, everyone was about halfway up and then turning around. I thought, what a bunch of babies! Yeah, ahem, until I tried. I got halfway up, and well, there wasn't enough traction to counteract the gravity. So, along with everyone else, I turned around. After I got home, the Pea and Jack agreed to join me in looking for some good winter pics at least. The Pea does not disappoint. Nor the crazy dog. Here ya go!

The Pea loves to eat snow!

Can't you imagine standing under this pine tree with me? Watching the flakes gently tumbling out of the sky? Sometimes, (especially if you aren't driving in it) snow can be so incredibly beautiful.






We shall see what the following Mondays bring. Thanks for hopping over, and I've noticed I have some new commentors! Stay tuned for a All About The Tangleds Post soon.
