Six days in a row almost makes a whole week

This is a variation of something very nasty (and yet, oh so funny) that someone shoe-polished on my sister’s get-away car at her wedding.  I was immature, and I laughed.  So sue me.

Just Humor Me A Little Longer

Then I’ll get off the Whiny-Baby-Express about how cold and icy and nasty it is here. My poor kids, who haven’t seen snow in over six years, can’t quite figure it out. They run outside to play, shrieking with glee about the snowball fights they want to have, and the igloos they want to build, [...]
