It’s cold and she weighs eleven pounds. Somehow she enjoys jumping through freezing snow half her height.

Got new playing cards for a winter of cribbage and they’re so cute - I’m not immune to hello kitty kawaii 😋
Color illustrated cards with hello kitty character on them. Each card is unique and has characters wearing hello kitty hats Joker cards showing hello kitty flying a plane and riding a bike. They’re very cute

Environmental storytelling:

Breena had opinions about going outside to potty in today’s snow
A few tracks in snow where a small dog stepped outside, rejected thr idea of going potty in the cold, and immediately came back inside.

My friend sent me these tonight of a crazy bridge he went over.

I’m jealous or the beautiful land he gets to see.
View from the start of a rope and wood bridge high above a river. Side view of the bridge above the river. It’s so long that it appears to sag. View from the middle of the bridge. The handrail is visible above clouds reflected in the river. Green foliaged mountains frame the scene. A view just of the river and mountains from the bridge

My friend’s daughter drew us and I feel like a real auntie.
A small child’s drawing of two smiling people. Their many fingers are long lines. They have no legs (I think). There is a sun drawn in both top corners of the paper.

Could you draw my favorite school microscope? It’s the model on the first image, and the two microscopy images are from my research two years ago. If one of them could be on a computer screen by the microscope, that would be amazing!!

My sweet neighbor and friend knew I wasn’t feeling well and made me an Indian rice porridge for lunch/dinner. It has a bit of a kick to it, but I’m also just wimpy with spicy food.
