Snow Job

[chomiji]

It's snowing! It shouldn't snow this early in Washington ... maybe by the end of the month, or in January or February. But not in the first week of December. Some of the trees still have leaves on them!

Our snow-sprinkled house and front yard. The round thing is the end of the huge log that's all that's left of the poor chestnut oak that died on us (well, except for the pile of sawdust, which is also visible):

Snow-capped red oak leaves on the remaining tree out front:

These were taken with The New Camera, but they're posted to my Earthlink account. Gotta do that Flickr thing - I ran out of space uploading these, and had to delete some old stuff to fit them.

I'm home because I have 3 doctor's appointments today - I'm between appointments now ... .

We'll have to wait to firm up the "what" - I'm hoping I'll have to worry about my daily radiation treatements by then (it's an odd thing to hope for, I know, but it'll mean my treatments are back on track).

We haven't been to the movies just recently at all, but I imagine we'll try to get to The Golden Compass on Xmas day. I don't celebrate it at all, being Jewish, and Karl's prefectly willing to put it off 'til we get together with his family in early January - so ever since the first LotR movie came out, we've made a tradition of seeing a big fantasy movie that day. (Last year, it was Narnia.)

I would love to see it at the Uptown, which is where we saw the others, but it doesn't seem to be showing there. The movie sites (Fandango, for example) aren't showing movie times farther than 12/20.

So are you busy on Xmas Day? Your family lives way out of town, yes?

Not an issue, the driving thing - we can't really make plans yet (for aforementioned reasons), but there's always the "we meet you at a Metro with the car and take you off with us" caper.
