weather or not...

um, yea...that would be weather.
we got hit, yet again, with another
doozy of a storm. that makes for
3 in 3 days! we didn't lose power or
anything like that (many more folks
did, however) and this time it came
through at a "reasonable" hour!
we turned all the lights off and
lit candles in the living room and
sat on the sofa and watched it come in.
(a bottle of cabernet would have been nice!)
SO electric! the sky was lit like
daylight through most of the storm.
all is well. however, gary was shouting
"c'mon storm, daddy needs new siding!"

jessica strickland. what can i say?
wow! she said that she doesn't like it
when people say that she talks a lot.
so let me just say that jessica had
a lot of information to share. and respectfully
i must add that the room was hot (the air
was out in that end of the building) and
what she had prepared to share...seriously,
i wanted to hear....so i was thankful that
she was there to speak, had much to share and
in a warm room where it would have been
too easy to doze off in the back row,
i sat front and center and she held my
attention the entire day/evening!
thanks again jessica for taking the time
to come and speak to our group.
this was her very first speaking engagement~
you'd have never known had she not
divulged that information!

she spoke about a gadget that she uses
to tote around her lenses (designed by
jessica claire) called the shootsac.
something that i decided i needed to have.
i'm sick and tired of trying to locate a
safe place to lay my big bag with my lenses
in it. i'll tell you more about it when
it arrives...i also purchased a new lens.
so i'm excited for fedex to get here this week!!
i feel a little like a junkie at my computer.

hilton families on friday and the big
miraclekids triathlon in chanhassen is saturday!

gotta run....
