Still snowing here, beautiful, big flakes, like a swirly snowglobe. We have about 6" now.

Thanks....when I got to see the heartbeat it was pretty cool...just a white flashing "light" sort of...but still, a heartbeat...it's so weird to think that another person is GROWING in my uterus! LOL


I loved loved loved being pregnant. It is the most amazing thing to carry that little person for 9 months..... <3 I hope you have the best pregnancy ever and are able to enjoy every minute of it. I carried my son high and waaay out in front--my husband called me 'bassetball'..

You couldn't tell I was pregnant from behind~~till I turned around and then it was holy moley that's a belly! hahaha! aww.. makes me miss it--a little.

course that was 15!!! years ago.

Ginger, my EE, laid her first egg. It's not blue or green as I hoped it would be. It's kind of pale pink. Here it is with one of Roz's and Maisie's eggs.

HMMM!!! That would make Rustler a LOT OLDER than he seems. Shoulda known.

Snowing heavy with thunder and lightening. Sticking to cars and decks, but way too warm (46*F) to last.

jbear, I'm cancelling out your request for more snow with mine for no snow.

hallerlake, Congrats on the egg.

I think that the insurance company, the VW dealership and the auto wreckers are all in bed with each other. I contacted the Green Car Company in Bellevue that specializes in VW TDI engines. They think they can do a complete engine replacement for about $4,500. Waay less than the $10,000+ quoted by Chaplins to our insurance. I thought this would be great news, called my agent who said I need to get an itemized bill from Chaplins (now waiting 4 hrs for that to be faxed to me), and once I get that, we need to "discuss with our adjustor if engine replacement is indeed a good option for you." By the exaspereated tone I heard, I think they have all made up their minds already that they are going to scrap our car! I think the wrecker must need a TDI in otherwise great shape for parts. Grrrr. I would think it would be a no-brainer to have the thing towed a few more blocks to someone who can repair it for less than half what VW would charge! They have had our car since December 16; you'd think we'd have SOMETHING to drive by now! NOTHING has been done yet!!!

At this point I am so mad at the whole lot of them, that if Greencar said it's not worth repairing (which they won't), I'd take the car back home and turn it into a shiny red Slug Bug chicken coop! How cool would that be?

No, our coop is too small to put a light in. It does have two small windows.
