In case you didn’t know, this Wednesday I’m making my first solo grandma visit to see Felix!! I have reached the point where I really can’t worry about Jimmy’s feelings, since his travel time is limited to about 4 months per year (and winter at that). So I’m looking forward to spending a few days hugging the heck out of that little sweetie and maybe out of Mia too! And if Jim doesn’t get too put out about it all, look out – I’ll soon be visiting Ephrata and Chicago!!!
A friend of mine has been offering to take pictures of Felix, and I’ve been meaning to take him up on it and send out an Easter card on time. We were trying to get together today, but it just didn’t happen. Joel was about to be mad at me since I made him change his shirt, so we stopped by the park to grab a shot we could use so the cards would go out in time. We were short on time – Felix had just taken his reflux med, so he needed to eat in promptly 30 minutes. We jumped out, walked down to the gazebo, set up the tripod and bam: ready to go. As I was fiddling with the timer on my camera, Angela walks up. “What are you doing?” Me: “Taking pictures, what are you doing?” Angela: “Ohhhh, ok. My turn.” And she poses for her solo shot. I take it, and show her on the screen. “That’s me!” she says. “Yep. That’s you.” Then she walks away. I figure out how to set up the timer, and we are ready to go. I frame the shot with Joel in it, set the timer and walk over to jump in. Here comes Angela. She doesn’t want to miss the shot.
So this will be your Easter card. Because nothing productive happened after I peed my pants.

So I was putting together an estimate for an iPad app today for this service that is pretty neat. It’s for people to read books to kids online via webcam or just voice like skype. I thought it would be cool for Felix and mom.

Felix is getting fat again.
I put a deposit down on this today, and I am working on arrangements to pick it up sometime over the next 7 days. I have the keys already. That’s all that would fit in my car. It’s a 49cc Honda Ruckus.
I took this picture before splitting these off into a few separate pots to give them some more breathing room.
me and dizzle are coming home on friday and will be in at like 2 or 3 am probably. just for sat and sunday.
cant wait to be home for a bit!
and not ending up with soggy feet. If we are careful, we can avoid touching most of the snow and slush today.
I made meatballs again, and put together calzones to take to the super bowl party.
I switched from Verizon Wireless to Virgin Mobile, which runs on Sprint’s network. My monthly bill is less 20 some dollars, and I have a fancy new android phone, too. My favorite app so far is a police scanner.
So we hear about Chicago getting 2 feet of snow with crazy wild winds – let’s hope you stay warm, Gage. How about some pics??
