February 5th

Does it sound like I'm counting down the month? Road crews were clearing this away yesterday morning on my way to work, so I stopped for a shot at where Eleanor and I got in big trouble last Thursday night. It's the blowing snow that covers the road. I asked one of the road crew if a snow fence might be possible and he said they were thinking about it. What's to think about?! A one-time fence, or clearing the roads every day? I love our county road crew, but that defies my logic. I was thrilled to drive home on asphalt last night, the first time in over a month. Ian goes to work before me and just called to say that it's down to one lane again, and tracks at that, so I'll be driving out to the highway and to go in through California.

It's going to be a rough day at work again today. Our staff has been hit hard by influenza B so we're operating an a skeleton crew of the survivors.

This color is a huge departure for me so I'm wondering if my color appreciation has changed because of all the dyeing I've been doing using purple, or if Amy has finally rubbed off on me.

Cool shoes! I so appreciate people who can pull off that color. Alas, I am a brown/black/tan kinda person. (sigh)

Go for the purple!!! After all it's a regal color and we are royalty you know ;)..............

Well, I'd say that's a good color to rub off on you! If you ever get tired of the purple, I'm sure you'll find plenty of volunteers to take them off your hands :)
