Lazy Sunday

Well, not really lazy, but it's going to be from here on out. Went down and visited mom and got her stocked up on supplies. We had a good visit. It was messy driving, though, with the melting snow and salty spray kicked up by cars in front. It's supposed to rain later this week, so I suspect the snow will disappear completely by Tuesday or Wednesday.

We went out last night and saw the new Bond flick, Quantum of Solace, with Shaun and Mary. We all kind of liked it. I enjoyed Casino Royale more, but this one wasn't bad, and it was neat to see the Campo in Siena again. We had drinks there in June.


After the movie, we headed back to Shaun and Mary's for drinks and snacks. S & M also surprised me with a birthday cake and a card containing lotto tickets! (I didn't win 6/49 last night guys, and I am going to scratch the other tickets as soon as I finish this post... If you don't hear from me in a while, you'll know I won! ;-)

I'm also going to light a fire in the fireplace as soon as I finish this post, and we're having an easy dinner of baked potatoes and roasted maple/dijon salmon. The salmon is our usual Sunday night fare. Reading by the fire will be what's in store for this evening.

Here's a pic of yesterday's snowfall. It could have been much worse, I guess. Other areas received significantly more accumulation.


And here's our current background on our home computer. Poolside in Tuscany. And yes, those are my feet, and yes, I took the photo that way on purpose! ;-)
