Winter blues

Hello!

So the beginning of winter is here, is the first snow fall that staying on the ground. I took a couple of pictures of the event from the inside of my refuge that protects me against nature. I don't exactly like winter but I couldn't have a Christmas without snow in the picture, I really do love a white Christmas but once the holidays are over I would love winter to skedaddle out of here. My wife prefers winter over summer because if it gets real cold all she has to do is put on more layers to keep warm, but summer she can only take off so much so she doesn't like that.

My oldest daughter is now bugging for an IPad, she's trying to get any which way she can. Here's the story, when I was doing my list of what to get for the girls I asked her if she would prefer an IPad or an iPod fourth generation, she immediately say that she wanted an iPod because it had a built-in camera. But then her sister got an IPad for her birthday and all changed! This was the most beautiful gadget she had ever seen in her life, I told her that she could wait for her birthday and use the money she gets to purchase the IPad just like her sister had done. She didn't want to do this, so I told her it was too late that Santa had closed his shopping cart already. My wife told her that she was given a fair warning about the pros and cons of each gadget and that she could have always gotten the IPad and a digital camera, guess what she asked for Christmas? An iPod and a digital camera, how redundant is that?!? Well I'll hope she learns something out of all of this and that she doesn't go postal on me.

Sayonara!
