Fruitcakes in the kitchen, Fruitcakes on the street....

Eleven day break, snow and traveling has happened. Oh, and a holiday. More frozen water lines and propane tanks emptying in the midst of the night, and heaters tripping the circuits and shutting off. At least we are getting pretty good at improvising on the spot, and that's the silver lining. It snowed a bit while we were away for the holidays, and snow accumulated on top of the RV. So yesterday TJ decides to crawl up on the roof and sweep off the snow so that no damage is done. I suppose in hind sight it was a good day to do so, seeing how yesterday was the last day of our military insurance coverage. But ice does accumulate at our front steps, and though I helped each child down to safety...they both slipped and fell on their behinds as we journeyed to the laundromat. No one was hurt, so it was okay to giggle. We began our search for a gym yesterday. It amazes me how I can workout so hard for over a year and all it takes is a couple of weeks of crappy eating to blow it all to shreds. I figure this week is a pre-serious warm up for next week's seriousness. Or something like that. I have no other adventures to report at this time, though stay tuned....tomorrow is another opportunity!
