The wee smalls, again

My rookie-ness caught up with me again this afternoon, as I allowed B to sleep for a few hours. He just looked so darn cute and peaceful. The house was quite, and T and I were downstairs trying to make a dent in the pictures. T was on a tear to get some frames up, and I was plodding along, trying to help. She managed to get together more than 30 pictures for some frames, and still has more left over. Although I didn't really have a problem with the walls being bare, the frame set in the hallway does add to the decore. I will be sure to let T know that I think it looks great!

The snow continues to fall over night, and I will be out there in the driveway in about an hour and a half, clearing it for the daycare. I enjoy the time outside, so I am certainly not complaining about it. The weather looks like it will hold for the morning, too, so I think that I will try to run the Hazen Trail in Wilder-Norwich. It will be a great chance to put my spikey things to the test. I really hope that a bunch of people snowshoed the trail over the weekend so that it is runnable without snowshoes.

I think that I will take B and Z sledding in Hanover again, depending on how things go. Mebbe just Z, or mebbe just B. Mebbe just me! lol...

Oh, right. Back to the rookie thing.... well, as it ended up, B didn't fall asleep until around 1 am. Yep. No one to blame but me, i guess. I am going to stop looking to find fault in others and simply accept all responsibility and blame for things that don't quite go the way i wished, hoped, or intended. Seems to be easier for me that way. At least I won't go around pointing fingers, right? We'll see, and revisit the concept later. 

In two days I start my career at the Veteran's Administration Hospital here in White River Junction, VT. Should be a good step in the continuation of my nursing career. I will be in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Stay toooooned to see how things play out.

Alright, my first alarm just sounded, so I think that I should get ready to go outside. Well, it is only 4am, so perhaps I will wait a little. Thank you for reading this pretty boring post. But then, it is all relative.....

OH! if you haven't done it yet, be sure to play the little video in the post below. Thx.

Snow, how was your day?

I was reading a blog from a runner in FL, and this was on one of his postings. Snowing here today, about 4 inches so far, so I thought it was rather fitting. Never mind. whatever.

Mr. Tooooter.

Yep. B is tooting next to me. Luckily for me, though, he is on T's side of the bed! SSSHHHhhhhhh...

If you hoped that this would be some profound first posting of the new year, you will be sadly disappointed here. No words of wisdom to depart, etc. Just a post.

Have you seen Wall-E? Be sure to watch the short film about Burn-E. AFTER you watch the feature, though. I will make much more sense, and will be funnier. Who doesn't want funnier?

Sadly, I have been playing with the Wii. I find the basic golf game to be quite interesting. No, I don't put the golf club attachments on. Silly Rabbit. Come to find out, one of my cousins plays Wii quite often, and has gotten her mother hooked on bowling over new year's eve. HA! very fun. the concept, at least.

Running? nah. not much. haven't gone since the week after thanksgiving, then i went yesterday on my way home from work. well, more accurately, i ran HOME from WORK. 5.5 miles, but it took me an ETERNITY. 59:39. Cold, too. when i got home, the thermometer read 12. it was very windy out there, so i imagine that the wind-chill, if you subscribe to such things, was about 0. Brisk.

Wondering if i should take this blog to a new direction. Dunno where. Short stories? Recipies? Nah. just meaderings like this will be fun enough.

Will be posting links to my running (racing) goals for the summer, though. There are a few that I want to participate in. I darenot say 'race', since I am not really competitive, but i do like to be involved. speaking of, i have been tossing around the idea of trying to get involved with Team In Training, a group that races and raises monies to fund leukemia research. thing is, though, there are no local chapters. closest one is in Burlington, VT. just a bit too far. oh well. and NO, i am not interested in starting one here in the Upper Valley.

Alright, you are probably as tired of reading this as I am of writing this, and besides, Ray is here to get Liz. 

Peace, YO!
