so my folks and their friends picked the worst blizzard-day of the century to hop in the car and drive from Sioux Falls to Minneapolis - the exact path of the crazy weather. why, may you ask? because they're nuts. they're also going to the Dominican Republic tomorrow so who can blame them. i'd want to be getting the H out of dodge, too. in fact, i DO want to get the H out of dodge. but i'm not going anywhere...not with all this snow blocking my way.
regardless of the hazardous conditions, the nutsos made it up here. it only took them 8 hours (counting a trip to Cabellas of course). i'm just happy they didn't end up in a ditch. i'm also happy they ventured up nort here to crystal to see annie because if they didn't, i was going to have a lot of 'splainin' to do...i do hope they get out of here tomorrow. it's a PERFECT time to be heading to the tropics.
nothing new to report from the johnston house. japper is barfing. he has mucho mucous in his throat and tummy - poor thing - and it's preventing him from keeping his food down. god bless him, he feels miserable. annie is recovering nicely, she's got this thing all working for her now "more dora please mommy?" is all she ever says to me anymore and she couldn't say it more politely or with a sweeter tone and smile. she is WORKIN' me over, folks...and i'm letting her. how can i not? i just put her under the knife for crying out loud. she can watch as much dora as she wants...for like 2 more days.
big thank you to uncle aaron for bringing his snowblower over and digging me out this afternoon. that was a lifesaver. between him and my dad and nic shoveling for me tonight, my shoveling escapades tomorrow will be cake. thank you, boys!
march. it's in like a lion.
