1.22.08 Balanced snow balls

I love it when the snow falls gently and all day like it did yesterday. In the morning, there are always these lovely little sparkling decorations on everything.

1.21.08 Comforter

I know I wasn't going to post pictures of my kids, but this was my day. Both were running fevers for two different reasons, so I was playing comforter, keeper, and medicine doser today.

1.20.08 Captured light

It's so hard to capture light properly on a camera. And forget about truly portraying the moon without special equipment. This image of our living room lamp came out nicely I think because I barely left the filaments out of sight, under the lamp covers.

1.19.08 Eeffoc

My coffee cup at Panera Bread reflecting in the top of my laptop case. Yes, I like my coffee milky. ;o)

1.18.08 Snow cone

A sudden snowfall occurred tonight and dropped these lovely light flakes over the city.

1.17.08 Take a guess

Can you guess what this is? HINT: Think "indoor sports."

Oh, and if you know where I went today, no fair cheating. ;o)

1.16.08 Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic

We like old things--especially old medicine packaging. You can't get the full effect of this one without reading the box:

-------------------------------------------
Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic
Cinchoinine-Cinchonidine-Reduced Iron
Sugar Syrup, Lemon Flavored

For Malaria and Resulting Chills and Fever
Pleasant and Effective!

Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic has no bitter, nauseating taste, and carries the properties of Iron in a tasteless form. An ideal preparation for Malaria Chills and Fever. Continue use for a period of at least eight weeks to control recurrent attacks.

Taken as directed Groves Tasteless Chill Tonic is equally good for adults and children.
-------------------------------------------

Heaven's sakes. Like anything produced in the early 1900s could make Malaria pleasant. *blink* I'm glad Malaria isn't a common epidemic in America anymore. It is one scary disease.

1.15.08 Self portrait

Yes. Self portrait. Look closely. ;o) Hmm...maybe I should have dusted first.

1.14.08 Minimalist keys

I'm a minimalist when it comes to keys. One key for each vehicle in our family. One clicker for the vehicle I drive most. One house key. My alma mater's key chain as an anchor. And the flash drive which holds all my dearest writings.

1.13.08 The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything

My daughter and I went to the movies tonight and saw "A Veggie Tales Movie: The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything." Wonderful show! This is actually a shot of the movie screen.
