merry effing xmass

met up with damon in new york last week. wanted more time. was hard to leave.

left jfk for nova scotia on xmas eve morning. got stuck @ boston airport all day waiting for my connecting flight that had nobody to fly it (pilots & crew were snowed in somewhere in the midwest). luckily met a couple of ex-pats living in boston who eventually gave up like me and took me back to their place for some much needed sleep (thanks kim & jason). finally made it after traveling all of christmas day, which ironically had me fly back to new york to catch the new flight.

jingle all the way!

ho ho ho(ly snow)

crikey there is A LOT of snow! we've had freezing rain already so there is an abundance my least favorite thing, ice. it scares me. i love love love the look of the winter wonderland though. i woke this morning to look out the window and felt the tears run down my face, it was so overwhelmingly beautiful. elisabeth (my cousin's almost 5 year old) has made a little snowman on the front lawn. i feel cozy.
