(Though it didn't post at 12:01am like it was supposed to). Anyhoo, I'm home and resting (uncomfortably). Surgery went well, my kidney tube and stone are gone! I have an internal stent on the left hand side but I'm okay with that because it comes out in the doctor's office in 2-3 weeks (no back to the hospital) and especially because it meant they could take that nephrostomy tube out! (The last nearly 2 weeks of that 15 weeks was rough with that thing, my body was simultaneously trying to heal aroun...

I agree with what that passenger said! I hope you weren't stuck too long - did you make it to your daughter's?
It may be brutally cold but it's quite beautiful. I grew up in Northern California and the first real snow or cold weather I experienced was when I went away to school in Iowa. You'll probably roll your eyes and say "it's so overrated" but I would love to see ice on the ocean. Hope you're keeping toasty inside (and it would be even better if your neighbors are outside!)
Seeing the ice on the bay & the ocean never loses it's wonderous affect on me! (If you go to my "Links to more of me" on my blog and click on My Picasa (or Photo) albums, look for "Frozen Valentines" and you'll see our bay completely frozen over!)
Nor does taking a ride out on Sandy Hook to the Lighthouse at Fort Hancock in the off season or standing at the top of the Twin Lights, looking out at the ocean, at Sandy Hook, at New York, at Naval Weapon Station Earl(e?), or walking along the Marina here in town & looking out at the boats & the Ferry & the Navy base & Fort Hancock - all of which I've done more times than I can count (along with other things in this very beautiful area we moved to 3 years ago) and it's always like it's the first time I'm seeing these things!
Heck, I still get WAY excited from a prediction of snow to the point where if I do sleep, I'm always waking to check & see if it's started yet. When it snowed here this October before Halloween, I squealed with glee (as I always do when I see glorious flakes falling!) and called my Hubby, my Mom & my Aunt. I know, I'm a nut but it makes me happy!)
Hhhmmm, perhaps I'll post this as a comment on your blog too...
