Blow, blow, thou winter wind
Thou art not so unkind,
As man’s ingratitude.
- William Shakespeare-
Lest people think I am completely ungrateful, I list here the things that I am grateful for!
- Thermal undies. Especially Charlotte's heavy stripey ones! Hand-me-downs are so good...
- A waterproof hoodie for keeping the sleet out.
- My warm boots.
- Margo looking amazingly bright and cheery today!
- Meeting helpful smiling people everywhere.
- Getting home to a warm kitchen.
- Cups of tea.
- Good memories of a sunny-ish week last week!
- Grocery delivery, ooohh I love it!
- Feeling almost totally healthy and flu-free... knock on wood!
- And last but NOT least, FUZZY SOCKS!
This website was invented many years ago, when the author kept coming across interesting things in pockets whilst doing laundry. Like small, terrified reptiles. Blogging about raising children in the rainforest, moving them to the UK and watching them leave home one by one to have their own adventures has gradually been replaced by a return to grownup life for their mother, Nan Sheppard, who is an anthropologist, writer and public international law consultant.

I wear fuzzy socks around the house. I LUVZ me some warm feet - at ALL times. The way to make me feel cold - is to get my feet cold.
Warm fuzzies--that fends off the wicked winter weather!
"Oh Fuzzy Socks, we love you so,
You keep us warm from heel to toe!
Say otherwise, I'll clean your clocks,
Don't come between me and my Fuzzy Socks!!"
I love all the things you are grateful for! You know there is a thing that a few of the bloggers I read do called "Grace in the small things", that has a button and you just throw it up once a week or however often you want and list the things your grateful for.
You're good at it!
I believe Ree at Hotfessional.com does it every Sunday...
Boy, doesn't take much to make you happy.
Hi, I'm Skylar. You asked what recording program I used, for that CD, someone recorded it for me. Now I use GarageBand. It's an Apple program and you can download it for free here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/garageband51.html

Hi, I forwarded your question to Skylar...thanks for checking out the blog. She is a blessing and a bit of a wonder.
Thanks Theresa and Skylar! Audobon Ron, there was another quote "I love winter, it really lets you savour a bad mood" but I thought THINK POSITIVE!
Halfasstic, I know... but I can never remember those things so I'll just be random!
I miss all your fuzzy stuff...sigh!
Tee hee!
