RTBTCKI (The It is March and It is SNOWING edition)

Posted By on March 23, 2011

At least at this point it is not sticking since the ground is not that cold. Just looks kinda pretty sort of.

Day 5 for the Battle of the Virus vs. Caroline. Every time we think she has this beat, the fever comes back with a vengeance. She is a miserable little girl right now. In these marvelous days of E-mail I got her spelling words so she can at least get that done before she goes back.

So not much else has gotten done this week. But that is because she needs us right now and that is my priority. I might have a go at one thing I want to do since I can work on it while she is on the couch resting.

Well my brackets are a total bust this year with the exception of Ohio State and Kentucky. I don’t think they have gone down in flames that fast ever.

Baseball official starts soon. The Spring Training Games are fun to watch but it is time for the official season to start.

Football is still a mess and what happens at the draft is going to be telling about what is going to happen in the Fall. I think they will get it together but I am not expecting a full season. There is always college football to watch.

Got my images to work for the DragonCon Art show. Now let’s see if I get in. I think Peter finally faxed our guest letters of intent the other day. It looks like the only shows I am in for the rest of the year are Shoreleave, DragonCon (if I get in), and two doll shows I have commitments for. Since that is pretty light, I am going to try to get my Esty shop up and running. Yeah, I have said this before but I really want to this time. Now I just have to figure out how it works.

Fig loves to sit in the front window and watch the world go by. She will sit there until she falls asleep there. I have to chase her off when I want to use my sewing machine because she sits in front of it.

It stopped snowing now but they expect more later this afternoon when the second front comes through.

Has anyone noticed that recently last years touted drugs on TV are this years lawsuit fodder? I really wonder about the testing phase of these drugs and how many drugs that work just as well (if not better) are being pushed to the side for the drugs that the companies have a patent on so they can make more money. Maybe we need to re-examine what we already have on our shelves that we can use to cure our ills already. Also notice how fast the drugs go from prescription to shelf once the patent is up especially the allergy medications. The cost to the patient goes way up because health insurance is no longer footing the bill for the pill.
Caroline is getting a bit frustrated with her Pokemon game. She managed to cruise through the first 3 badges but the 4th badge is eluding her. I told her what she needed to do but it is going to take time to get her Pokemon up to what she needs to get the badge. I think she’ll do it but she is probably going to drop the game for a while and go back to it which is fine by me. She is reading rather than playing a video game.

I am grateful to signs that Caroline is on the mend.
