"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

Oh so interesting...

Yesterday, I found 7 shirts for $21, and 4 of them were sweaters. My closet was very excited, because it was feeling a little worn out.

Yesterday, I made a new recipe for bean burgers, and it was disgusting. No one ate it. These are the moments that make me hate cooking dinner. What a waste of time.

Every night, M and E claim that they are going to throw up. We even keep a bucket in their room to keep them from complaining. But last night, GQ actually did throw up. Of course, he did not complain about it, we just found it in the morning.

Everything is closed for the snowstorm. Busses, schools. I look outside and feel disappointed. It doesn't look like a blizzard. It's not even that pretty. The tress have nothing on them. But I guess it is more dangerous to drive in snow here because it is more like ice than in Utah. I miss fluffy beautiful snow. If it's going to snow, can't it be awe-inspiring, instead of like sideways rain missiles?

This is so funny. I love to complain about the "ice snow" here in the Midwest. It's dumb and serves no pupose. No snow balls, no mountains, just little pellets in your face. The snow was up to my windows, but still, this is it? Not worth the hype!
