My friends humor me when I wanna practice. AND when I throw out ice cream bribes. Works like a charm!




And then, of course, to counteract all the non-smiling serious I'M SUCH A GUY shots we have these lovelies:


The end.

PoW : Feb 6-13


Bues Pond Park ... thawing out. Was Phil right about that early spring? I wouldn't be mad.

PoW : Jan 30 - Feb 6 ... sort of.

I don't really have much by way of a Photo of the Week this time around. The week flew by and I spent it sick and plowing through boxes of tissues. Well, with the exception of that stint to Wendover which I'm pretty sure made things worse (and cost me $5 to those blasted penny slots).  

I started organizing my external hard drive and came across an old scan. You know, better this for a PoW than some boring photo of my garbage can piled high with tissues (grossed out yet?). So here we have a fun family photo with all the cousins at Christmas dinner. Precious! Such perfect little kiddos with such shining smiles! Happy holidays everyone! Except ... wait a minute. Who is that little gem in the back with her FINGER UP HER NOSE? Yeah. That'd be me ruining the perfect Christmas dinner photo. Can't rip it out for two seconds to take a nice picture. Here's the thing, guys - this most certainly isn't the only picture of me where I'm picking my nose. And let's be sure that if I have that many pictures of me picking what in the world was I like when the camera wasn't pointed in my direction??


SO LET'S RECAP: Big Jess with a nasty cold this week and 'Lil Jess enjoying herself some good old fashioned nose picking. Full circle. See what I did there?

Little E: our resident vampire. But how could you not fall in love with such a toothy little grin?

Ice Castles

So I'm home from work today ... sick. Sick as in my throat is threatening to close at any moment and my head feels as if it could (should, please?) be popped with a pin. Last night's sleep was definitely not solid and I knew I'd just be a foggy mess if I went into work. Good thing I had to go on a flex spending spree in December and bought tons of random medicine. I have high hopes that tomorrow I'll be feeling much better and back on track. Until then, the house is pin drop quiet (except for the rushing of wind outside) and I'm cuddled up on the couch in my warm robe and fuzzy blue socks. Not too bad for a sick day. Now as for that medicine kicking in ... anytime now, thanks.

Last weekend we took a little mini trip up to friend's condo in Midway. We stopped by the Midway Ice Castles. They were all sorts of ethereal, as advertised. The ground is scattered with ice as well so they handed out ski poles and PVC pipes to steady ourselves with. I just so happened to get a child's pole and pretty much felt like Willy Wonka the entire time. Minus the candy, unfortunately.



As we walked through it I was reminded of our own accidental ice sculptures from last year. Maybe we should have left the sprinklers on -- just to see what could have happened. Maybe we could have made a few extra bucks!

Completely unrelated to anything made of ice: this website is killing me. It's so annoyingly entertaining. Hey - everyone seems so compelled to air all sorts of dirty laundry online nowadays anyway. Why not let the internet be your therapist as well?
