Blizzard March 08

Well we experienced our first big snow storm here in ohio today and yesterday. Now I will preference this with we had several storms of similar magnitude in Boston. However people in Ohio are not prepared to deal with storms of this size. We have about 12-15 inches of snow. Esimation is difficult due to the blowing snow which caused drifting. The conditions were pretty nasty this morning and most of the day. The only ones at our house enjoying the snow are the dogs. I thought I would post a few pictures. Oh and I want to give a shout out to Amy and Jessie who made it to Columbus during a lull in the storm on Saturday early morning (2am) but have been stuck there because the roads are too bad for us to drive the 80 or so miles to pick them up. Luckily they were able to find a hotel! I really hope I can see you ladies tomorrow!!!

Black Thumb

People who know me know that I don't have a green thumb...I basically kill plants. Well a few months ago I inherited a bunch of plants from a co-worker who moved to an office without windows. To be totally truthful my cubemate/co-worker Amy and I inherited them. Well I'm happy to report after 6 months all 10 or so plants are still alive and producing new growth. Now I know what you are thinking...it was all Amy right? Well on the contary, the plant that sits on my file cabinent gets cared for solely by me. It did have a down turn after christmas it is now starting to thrive again. It is sending out new growth and everything. To be honest I did some research and discovered it was a philodendron. My success inspired my to get a small plant for my house. As you can see it is doing pretty well....at least so far. I'll keep everyone posted on its fate.
