What is the Author trying to say?

CURIOSITY
He wears a robe of brilliant yellow, so intriguing you wish to reach out and grasp it, but at the same time you feel compelled to stay back for fear of the hideous face that lies between his shoulders. Haunting everyone who gazes upon his cold dark eyes and wrinkled, ghost white skin. He is the sole purpose for every invention and discovery, and lives in the minds of those willing to let him control their actions. His words are as soothing as the melodious sound of running water, yet his eyes seem to scream warnings of the words he speaks. The heart of those he has control over is the dragon he cannot slay. He rarely ventures out to fight it for fear that it will defeat him and take back the victims he has claimed. But on precious few occasions, he does seek out the heart. With only their fists as weapons they fight ferociously. The battle lasts a total of five days until his worst fears come true. The heart has defeated him, leaving his victims to live their own lives free from his influence.

Updated Snow Report

Another 4 1/2 inches fell last night. I measured. More storms are coming Christmas Eve and Christmas day with the possibility of another foot of snow from those storms. I hate to think of this all melting at once. I have never seen this much snow in all my years in Spokane. But, I would take this over ice storm anyday!

FYI family and friends

I have not done Christmas cards yet, and its Dec. 20th. It's looking like you probably won't get one by Christmas. I love you though.

My Favorite Snow Picture



Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Stop, please!




Record snow fall in a 24 hour period in Spokane, Wa. I'm not sure what the totals ended up being but in some areas there was 30". I'm betting it was a good 2 feet. We were home bound for 2 days and have had to dig ourselves out. Try being cooped up in the house with 6 people and a large dog! (Notice the car and how high the snow is!)

My Claim To Fame

The other day I was checking out a few blogs like I always do and thought, "I'll check out my cousin Megan's."
Megan is my Aunt MaryAnn's daughter who lives in California. She's a hairdresser and her husband works for a designer jean co. I love to see what she's up to next because she's going and doing all the time! She's fashionable, adorable and lots of fun!
The first picture I see is of her cutting some guys hair. I think to myself, "That looks a lot like David Archaleta from American Idol." (McCall loves him!) The next picture IS a picture of Megan and David Archaleta sporting his freshly cut Megan do. I couldn't believe it! I knew Megan was cool but I didn't know she was this cool!!! I'm feeling like an 80's has been right now.
