Things in Pockets, Besides our Hands Keeping Warm...

Brrrr! Are you cold? (Trinis need not reply. And I DEFINITELY don't want to know what colour your Carnival costume is or how many sequins will be adorning your boobs.)

I painted one wall in my living room GREEEEEN!!!!! Which is awesome. It's darker than I thought it would be, and I had a panic moment (as you do), but OH my goodness it looks really good. It's a huge room and the other walls are basic beige. I didn't take a picture of the whole room because it's knee deep in Lego. And there are clothes folded in heaps on the other half of the sofa. Notice the pull-up bar hanging in the doorway for boys to hang upside down. But that one little corner looks terribly House Beautiful.

So, what have you got in your pockets this week my peeps?

We've got Cough Drops, Gloves (Max has gloves in EVERY SINGLE POCKET of EVERY jacket and coat he owns, so he has no excuses!) Packs of Kleenex, Used Kleenex (crunchy and soggy both), A Few Coins, Lists, Lint, Notes From Teachers, Notes TO Teachers (for heaven's sake!) Bottle Tops, Keys (but not the ones we were looking for) Chockie Wrappers.

The bird feeder has fallen out of the tree. Oh travesty! There is a little posse of sparrows glowering at me through the window. I never knew sparrows could glower until now. Glower all you want, sparrows! It's too cold for me to climb trees today!
