		<description>&lt;b&gt;@ madmommy&lt;/b&gt;:
Left to right: Bucky, Beulah, Arthur, Peewee, and Mr. Gnome. :grin: 

Beulah and Arthur are the parents of the other two.

And no, they all don&#039;t sleep with us - one or maybe two for just a little cuddle, but not all night.  This is the only time I remember all four being on the bed together.</description>

		<description>Don&#039;t tell Mr. Gnome that I shared this picture with you.  He was exhausted when he got home this afternoon and went straight to bed.  The whole gang was so happy to see him that they joined him!  (Now you can see why we have space issues at night!)

		<description>&lt;b&gt;@ Pellora&lt;/b&gt;:
I was already saddened because I had &quot;killed&quot; a couple of buds on orchids while repotting.  So seeing my beautiful guy on the side of the road hurt more. :( 

Yes, I am super-sensitive.  Why do you ask?  :&#124;</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;@ gnome de plume&lt;/b&gt;:
 :rotfl: I didn&#039;t even notice those at first, for all the other ugly that caught my eye. WTF is that about? Doors to nowhere??

I thought I was all caught up on work, but the step-monster gave me a few more today when I dropped the madkiddies off for a sleepover. I still need to finish a load of laundry and pack the suitcases and gather up travelling snacks and such.</description>

Don’t you love the closet doors on either side of the entry door?  I am still trying to figure out what they go to since the window shows the front yard and street.   
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
My thoughts exactly on those two tacky doors.   :crazy:   And how big is that entry way?  And fake topiaries inside?  Bad enough outside.

I just can&#039;t see paying for a huge *tract* home that looks like everyone else&#039;s on the block.  You pay big money for a home, it should be unique!

I have seen way too many dead animalies on the roads of late.  All kinds.  Very upsetting to me.

Very windy and cold today.  It actually snowed, didn&#039;t stick because ground still warm, but the temp dropped enough (52 this morning to current 36) (snow at 34ish) for the snow flakes.  I&#039;m guessing the upper levels must be really cold for snow to form and fall.   :cold:   But we&#039;re just coming up on winter, which now doesn&#039;t really arrive until mid to late December.  There was a time, when I was youngun hereabouts, that we would be skiing on 6 feet of nice NOT man made snow by Thanksgiving.  Not any more.  And this year it has been too warm for the making of man made snow.</description>

		<description>I got &lt;i&gt;Not So Big&lt;/i&gt; from the library when I thought I was going to buy property and build. Good stuff.

At the time I was living in an 1100 sq ft house which had only one interior door (the door to the bathroom, and it didn&#039;t latch). By myself, it was more than enough. But half the time, my younger was with me. It was still enough room, but I really could have used an acoustically isolated area (for a couple years, he regularly had 3 noise sources going, each at high volume).

This house is much bigger, but it&#039;s all rooms, so it&#039;s much easier to get cabin fever during bad weather.</description>
