Responses etc

SO, in response to some recent comments...

* I sliced my ankle open on the bottom corner of the screen door, although, yes, I agree, any and all of those injuries sounded likely to ahppen to me. No stitches! Just a really gross cut along my achilles tendon, about 4 inches long, just shallow enough to miss the tendon, deep enough to be able to make it open and close and show some goopy stuff. I promise - no pictures.

* "Whipper snipping" is Australian for "weed whacking."

* no, you're right, we don't get snow doays here. Comfort me while I cry...

* a carport is like a garage without a door. Sort of a roof, I suppose. Protects stuff from hail, which we get some of in big storms.

* a hammer drill is a drill that hammers while it spins, so as to pulverise things like stone, brickwork etc. Had I done that to my foot, oh boy... ouch. Good thing I only injure myself on safe things like doors.

* I love Alex's name for the Harry Potter character. VOldypoo!

* How was Naria, Diane?

* I knew that talking about Harry POtter would make Bethany write something!

* I could draw a map of the farm, but I haven't got a scanner. Maybe I could draw it big and take a photo, we'll see. No photos of me in a tie, however.

* Katie M, please send me a picture of your new 'do', I want to post it!

* below is a picture of Shana's weekend, as she described in the previous posting...

Peace, beautiful people!

We don't get snow days at the U of M either! But we still get snow! Dumb law students sued the school for their tuition money on account of snow days.

Matt, Shana and Jess,
Can't begin to tell you how much I am enjoying the "blog". It is like reading a book, speaking of that, I think you SHOULD write a book! Miss you all sooooo much.
Sending lots of hugs and kisses.
Love,
Jan

Woah! I just figured out the clicking on the pictures makes them bigger. Figures that it would take me this long... Anyways, i've just never posted before because after reading all the other comments, I realized I had nothing new to say. Mentioning Harry Potter really made me want to get my two cents in though :P
Still, i'm glad to hear you're all doing well! Have a very merry christmas (if i don't poat again before then)
much <3,
bethany
