Slug!

September 01, 2010 By: Kini Category: Photos

A most bizarre looking slug that we saw at Alex’s bus stop this morning:

At least bizarre to us transplants! On our walk at the local park, we saw a dizzying number of huge slugs on the pathway. Odd. Then again… transplants, that’s us.

First Day of High School

August 31, 2010 By: Kini Category: Kids, Photos

On her way to her first day at her new high school:

We were waiting in the long, car drop off line (still on the road waiting to turn INTO the school) in the rain. Luckily, it was the actual first day of school for this year and being a new building with a lot more students than it’s previous incarnation, it was like there were a lot of new students. She had a great day while at school.

  • Sinus headache all day…can feel the immense swelling in my nasal passages, but can still breath. Thankful for that last bit. #
  • Phoebe wants to go to the pool. It's 63 degrees out. The pool is not heated. #

This Week on Twitter…

  • Sitting on the counter making chocolate cupcakes! http://twitpic.com/2hkkka #
  • Had a nice time at a local(ish) park this evening… Got some nice photos and LittleOne had a great time climbing walls! :) #
  • It's a really REALLY clear morning… You can clearly see the mountain from the balcony– wish the camera could… :-/ #
  • Sitting at the other pool while Phoebe "swims." http://twitpic.com/2hv8wb #
  • Started a batch of the Artisan Bread in Five Minutes A Day…. It's been a LONG time… but I'm drooling thinking about it! #
  • And so it has begun…the little one is sobbing and wants to go home. She no longer wants to be here. :( #
  • It's C-C-C-COLD this morning… #
  • Hand over the coffee now and save yourself from a Gibbs head slap. #

Sunrise

The 5:30 a.m. view from our balcony one morning. I guess it’s a perk of being on the top floor (3rd, that is).
