Happy St Patrick's Day (for real)...

Not that we were at all surprised, but we woke up this morning to see this ( I love that silly headband):

We now have the driveway shoveled / snowblown out (thanks to our wonderful neighbors) - we're saving the front steps for later. We got about a foot of snow, but with an inch of ice coating the top. That, at least, made it easier to clean off the cars. But on the downside, it made it much, much harder to shovel.

Caroline is back to herself, but Jim is still struggling with the bug that has been going around. We haven't been able to get much draft prep done, but at least there are some games on this afternoon that we can listen to (prepping by osmosis). There is something so appealing about listening to a baseball game with a foot of snow on the ground outdoors. Let's you know that spring is on the way.

But until the games get started, Jim is watching "Saving Silverman" (having seen "The Jazz Singer" - Neil Diamond is much better as himself than anything else). Caroline is sleeping. We'll see how long that lasts. =-)

Caroline was less than thrilled to get dressed to go outside this morning.

You expect me to walk in this stuff?!?

Fine - I'm just going to sit here then until somebody comes and picks me up!
