Polar Bear Pics in the Seattle Times!

Somebody's hand covers my face, but that IS me, in the paper!! Woo hoo!
...and that's me with my leg in the air?!
Karen's fab polar bear pix made me feel a little sheepish for doing the sloth bear plunge on New Year's Day, in our hot-tub! BENS did the Lake Washington polar bear plunge! Karen's blog, and all the blogs I follow (in the right margin) are very worth taking a peek at. I only follow really really good blogs (and yours, if you're not on the list!!! I have this personality tendency to always want to include people and never exclude them. Where does your personality fall on the include---exclude spectrum? And I wonder WHY we are the way we are, in this respect?)
Cheers,
Meg
PS I'm applying to the Iowa Writers' Workshop 3 week summer program - would you like to join me?!!!!!!!!

Thanks for your appreciative comments Meg and congratulations on getting into the newspaper! I would love to do the workshop, but I don't think that my husband can take three weeks off of work to watch the kids (they will be out of school) so I really can't do it. Have fun, it sounds awesome! Notice that I didn't take the plunge, only my husband did!

Hi Megs,
I have no comment apart from your love of swimming! It looks cold, cold.
I replied to your email by email I'm sorry. I know you rarely read email now.
I'm off to a Boy's Brigade camp for 8 days - as their chaplain! I love you D (Gump)

Hello! It's been a while since I have posted... And I cannot control this process! "It" chose this photograph, of lovely Benjamin and me, which is good, since I suppose it could have chosen anything at all?

2 Questions...

1. What song am I singing in this photo? 2. What is (/would be) your favourite song to sing for Karaoke? Can't wait to read your answers! For some reason I have this burst of childlike enthusiasm. The first crocuses of the season popped their purple heads out of Earth today and said HI! Nana loved her first crocuses each winter, and would get so excited about them, and that the days were gradually getting longer, and that there was this ONE warmish day in the middle of January - her eyes would gleam as she talked joyously... She was such an example of finding beauty in sorrow, light in the long winter, a smile in response to my frown... Bless her heart.

This is Jonathan, who has lived all his life in Kosovo. Eowyn & Coco loved his company. My ailment has now been with me for 3 weeks. I just watched http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ihuv5z6nqWw and was much amused. I don't think anybody reads these blogs any more. The only people who comment on mine are Bens and me. Hello! Is there anybody out there? (or is it in there?) I have become comfortably numb... Bit depressed, methinks.
