phew! this week was an odd one…Sick for the first half with some wretched stomach bug which had me completely out with Jay playing nursemaid. Then we had an insane storm, with tons of ice and trees falling everywhere. Our road was closed, and we were without power all day on Wednesday, which actually proved to be relaxing. We lit the fire, and read books. It was great to have a day without the tv and the computer.  You don’t realize how much of your time and energy is drained by technology. I wish that I could just do away with the tv, but I don’t think that’s possible.  I’m watching Martha right now, and am already scheming as to when I can watch my Netflix that just came in, last disc of Season 1 of the Tudors.  raunch.
