Southern Vermont is digging out the most today from Wednesday's winter storm. Wilmington got hammered with 36 inches, Readsboro was blanketed with 30, and Brattleboro picked up 19 (according to snow totals reported to WCAX Channel 3). Over 230 schools were closed in the region, as reported by Vermont Public Radio.
The edge of the storm reached into some of the Northern sections of Vermont, delivering a greater amount of snow then was anticipated. Burlington saw nine inches of accumulation, while Morrisville tacked up 12.5 inches over in Lamoille County. The Northeast Kingdom and Northern Vermont along the Canadian Boarder missed the bulk of the snow- Island Pond tallied just two inches from the latest nor'easter.
WCAX reporter Molly Smith rode with Tom Hart of Rutland City's Public Works Department while he plowed yesterday to clean up from the storm. Check out the feature from last night's newscast.
Some things to remember after a significant snow storm as we all dig out today:
- Make sure all vents around your home or apartment are clear to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.
- Don't over exert yourself while shoveling. You don't want to add an injury to the inconvenience the storm may have caused.
- Check with your elderly family members and neighbors to see if they need any assistance.
- Be aware of any parking bans that may be in effect.

United States District Court, M.D. Florida, Orlando Division
August 25, 2017
CORDELL ALLEN; ALIA CLARK; PATRICIA DEARTH; CHRIS DEPIERRO; JESSICA LEIGHTON; JESSICA PEREZ; JAMIE RIVERA; LAYFON ROSU; MARISSA SHIMKO; and CAROL SOMERS, Plaintiffs,v.HARTFORD FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY, Defendant.
Roy B.
Dalton, Judge
In this
action, Plaintiffs Cordell Allen, Alia Clark, Patricia
Dearth, Chris DePierro, Jessica Leighton, Jessica Perez,
Jamie Rivera, Layfon Rosu, Marissa Shimko, and Carol Somers
("Named Plaintiffs") seek relief
under the Fair Labor Standards Act
("FLSA") on behalf of themselves
and other similarly situated employees. (Doc. 11.) As such,
Plaintiffs moved to conditionally certify a collective class
of disability claims analysts employed by Defendant Hartford
Fire Insurance Company ("The
Hartford"). (Doc. 51 ("Motion to
In the
present motion, The Hartford moves to dismiss the claims of
four Named Plaintiffs and ten opt-in plaintiffs for lack of
subject matter jurisdiction. (Doc. 96
("MTD"); see also Doc.
132.)[2] Specifically, the MTD argues that the
Court does not have jurisdiction over these claims because
the employees agreed to submit employment-related disputes to
arbitration. (Doc. 96.) Plaintiffs oppose the motion. (Docs.
123, 133.) For the reasons set forth below, the Court finds
that the MTD is due to be granted.
Hartford's arbitration policy covers all employees: (1)
who received a written offer of employment on or before March
7, 2017; and (2) whose first day of work was on or after
April 1, 2012. ("New Hires").
(Doc. 96-3 ("Arbitration
Policy").) According to an affidavit submitted
by compliance officer Maria Q. Fazzino ("Ms.
Fazzino"), "The Hartford requires new
employees to review and agree to comply with an Arbitration
Policy and a New Hire Agreement." (Doc. 96-1,
¶¶ 1, 2.) "When an employee certifies that he
or she has reviewed and agreed to comply with the Arbitration
Policy and New Hire Agreement, he or she receives a
Certificate of Completion, which includes their name and the
date and time they completed the process."
(Id. ¶ 4.) "A Certificate of Completion
is also stored electronically by The Hartford."
support their MTD, The Hartford has produced copies of
Certificates of Completion certifying that Scott Agnew,
Cordell Allen, Antonia Britt, Bretton Scott Brown, Alia
Clark, Melissa Cooper, Chris DePierro, Yanique Dixon, Jessica
Leighton, Michael Milton, Monica Tinsley, and Jordan Watkins
("Arbitration New Hires")
reviewed and agreed to comply with the Arbitration Policy and
The New Hire Agreement. (Doc. 96-1, ¶ 4; see
also Docs. 96-7, 96-8, 96-9, 96-10, 96-11, 96-12, 96-13,
96-14, 96-15, 96-16, 96-17, 96-18.)
on August 19, 2015, The Hartford offered other employees the
option of agreeing to the Arbitration Policy in exchange for
one additional day of paid time off ("PTO
Offer").[3] (Doc. 96-1, ¶ 6.) Hence The
Hartford's Arbitration Policy also covers employees who
accepted the PTO Offer. (See Doc. 96, pp. 4-5.)
In her
affidavit, Ms. Fazzino avers that the process by which
employees selected whether to agree to the PTO Offer was
electronic. (Doc. 96-1, ¶ 7.) "After accepting or
declining participation in the Arbitration Policy, each
employee who responded to the offer received an Arbitration
Policy Certification stating whether they chose to agree to
the Arbitration Policy and the date on which they made their
choice." (Id. ¶ 8.) Baronda Staten
("Ms. Staten") and Steven Wright
("Mr. Wright") assented to the
Arbitration Policy by accepting the PTO Offer and
electronically checking a box that read "Yes I have
read, understand and agree to comply with the Arbitration
Policy." (Docs. 96-24, 96-25.) Based on the foregoing,
The Hartford requests that the Court dismiss the claims of
the Arbitration New Hires, Ms. Staten, and Mr. Wright for
lack of jurisdiction. (Doc. 96.) In their response,
Plaintiffs argue that the arbitration agreements are
unenforceable because The Hartford knowingly misclassified
employees as exempt and engaged in misconduct during the
pendency of Monserrate. (Docs. 123, 133.)
Notwithstanding Plaintiffs' claims of misconduct, the
Court finds that MTD is due to be granted.
Legal Standards
the Federal Arbitration Act
("FAA"), "courts must
rigorously enforce arbitration agreements according to their
terms." Am. Express Co. v. Italian Colors
Rest., 133 S.Ct. 2304, 2309 (2013). Upon the motion of
any party to a valid arbitration agreement, courts must stay
or dismiss litigation of all claims that fall within the
agreement's scope and compel arbitration according to the
agreement's terms. See 9 U.S.C. §§
3-4. Several courts within this District have treated motions
to dismiss in favor of arbitration as motions challenging
subject matter jurisdiction pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil
Procedure 12(b)(1).[4]
agreements are presumptively valid and enforceable.
See 9 U.S.C. § 2. However, arbitration under
the FAA is ultimately "a matter of consent, not
coercion, " Volt Info. Scis., Inc. v. Bd. of Trs.
of Leland Stanford Jr. Univ., 489 U.S. 468, 479 (1989),
and parties opposing arbitration can challenge the formation
and validity of a contract containing an arbitration clause.
Specifically, the Eleventh Circuit recognizes "three
distinct types of challenges to a contract containing an
arbitration clause": (1) challenges to the formation,
or "the very existence, " of the contract; (2)
challenges "to the validity of the arbitration clause
standing alone"; and (3) challenges "to the
validity of the contract as a whole." Wiand v.
Schneiderman, 778 F.3d 917, 924 (11th Cir. 2015).

I do not and will not ever kiss my girlfriend.
I made up my mind about that long before I had one.
Even though we have plunged consistently deeper and deeper into a profound, unconditional (and recently, romantic) love over these last 3 years of friendship, and it only makes sense that I would've kissed her already, I haven't, and I won't.
Because I don't need to.
Now, don't get me wrong, I'm a very passionate person. At times, I exude enough energy that I can't help but to use my hands and arms to help convey what my mouth is saying. I've been known to get so excited when I'm sharing something valuable, that I even jump up and down or raise my voice to almost obscene levels. I throw my head back and bellow when I laugh and when I'm depressed or upset, I'm not afraid to wear it on my face.
Now that I've found myself passionate about a person, I want to live in the same, vigorous, elevated energy with which I pursue my other passions but I can't. I keep hearing the Bible speaking:
He whose spirit is without restraint is like a city that is broken down and without walls.
– Proverbs 25:28
For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God.
– 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5
It's not that passion is a bad thing, it is definitely a great and admirable thing! But when we fail to control something, then it begins to control us. Sometimes Christians and other people of faith talk about sin like there are some things that are bad in the world and other things that are good, but that's just not the case. Sin happens when a good thing is done without respect of its proper context. For example, one sin we fail to give proper attention to today is gluttony. All of us can agree that food is a good thing: it give us vitamins, nutrients, and energy. It helps our body to maintain and restore itself and on top of that, food is tasty and it actually nurtures us emotionally and psychologically as well! But what happens when we abuse our healthy need to eat? We get sick to our stomachs, we gain unnecessary weight, we binge, we use it to self-medicate, we contract diseases, become sluggish or lethargic, and even die from eating too much or eating outside of a balanced diet over and extended amount of time. This is all gluttony. I don't want my passion for my girlfriend to end like this.
So I've decided that I won't worry about kissing a girl until I'm engaged.
Now, I know good and well that rules are not saviors. They are simply guidelines to help us balance our personal freedoms with our responsibilities to one another. This rule isn't a rule that I think everyone should follow, or even one I'd recommend for everybody because you are not all the same as me. There is NOTHING wrong with kissing, however, I know that kissing would just distract me from my main goal in my relationship, getting to know my girlfriend better.
You could call it creating intimacy. Intimacy has a strong sexual connotation in our culture, but it is not just sex, it is a deep knowledge or understanding of something or someone. Eboni and I want to have that with each other. And physical intimacy often distracts from spiritual and emotional intimacy. We've all seen that couple making-out in the hallway on the day they start dating, only to break up before the week is up. Physical intimacy shouldn't grow at a faster rate than spiritual, emotional, and intellectual intimacy, and those naturally take time, much more time than the physical aspect does. That's why we need boundaries, ALL OF US. Otherwise, when our bodies tell us that we NEED MORE (and they will! Mine certainly does!) we fall into the trap of believing them until we figure out too late that they ALWAYS want more, no matter how much they already have.
Lust and abstinence aren't fundamentally about sex, they're about our desires and whether we can effectively say no to what we want when we don't need it.
Why? Because we are learning to be content. A month ago, I was overjoyed to talk to her on the phone for a few hours once every other week. Because going out to breakfast or dinner once a month and learning her was exciting! Because I have fallen for the way she shares her well of wisdom with such a lovely speaking cadence, and the way her eyes shimmer like the ocean at high noon when she talks about empowering people, because she is passionate about pleasing God like few other people I've seen, and because she wraps herself in strength and dignity as if it were the only clothing she needed.
She is so much more than a hot body and I don't ever want to be distracted from that fact.
So, I suppose that I still am[very] passionate about Eboni, haha. I'm just passionate about her whole person. All that physical stuff will come when it's time. This is more important. This is why Eboni and I have decided to wait together. When I commit myself to learning these hidden, beautiful things about her for the rest of my life, then I get the obvious one: the pleasure of knowing her body. Everyone wants to have a nice body, but only because it might help someone see who we are beyond it. No one is looking to have sex with you so they can get to know your personality, yet everyone gives their bodies away thinking that they'll get real intimacy from it.
The question is, are you willing to do the hard work of demanding that someone love you beyond your body, the way you really want to be loved? Are you really willing to put in the work to know and love a person the same way you want to be known and loved, by knowing their heart and mind before you know their body? I am. And Eboni is too. We challenge you to do the same.

AT&T Gets Immunity…And A Party!
yahooBuzzArticleHeadline = "AT&T Gets Immunity…and a party!";yahooBuzzArticleSummary = "The Democrats gave AT&T total immunity for spying on U.S. citizens, and – why the hell not? – a party, too!";yahooBuzzArticleCategory = "politics";yahooBuzzArticleType = "text";yahooBuzzArticleId = window.location.href;Source: Democracy Now
This is how the Democrats roll: first grant telecom companies (mainly AT&T) total immunity for spying on U.S. citizens and then throw them a party at the DNC. Oh, and don't let the press inside the party. And why the hell not? Invite some Republicans, too.
While we're at it, let's just allow AT&T to sponsor the entire DNC — the singular event that presupposes the new and approved Democratic party, chock full of outraged Progressives and the youthful "let's roll" spirit.
Yeah, that sounds perfect.

Thoughts for the New Year 2012
"Another fresh new year is here . . .
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!
This bright new year is given me
To live each day with zest . . .
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!
I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And sing more joyful songs!"
— William Arthur Ward
Of the holiday seasons that most people celebrate, perhaps you can say that New Year is one of my most favorite. I suppose the main reason would be that it signals a fresh start.. a new year.. new calendar.. new planner.. new almost everything! For me it is symbolic of a new beginning.. a time to let go of past hurts and failures and a signal to look forward to greater and better things to come. Perhaps I like this time of the year because everyone seems to be full of HOPE. I'm sure we are all hoping for a better life this 2012.
I suppose no one really knows what the future holds. We don't really know for sure whether this year would indeed turn out better than last year. But I have adopted a positive outlook for quite some time now. It's not just the hoping and wishing that things will be ok but it's the feeling that no matter what happens, it is for the best. So that's right.. let's charge on to a brand new year.. a fresh start and outlook in life.. Let's cherish the moment. After all, it's great to be alive! 😀

The Unfinished Heroes Series by Kristen Ashley
Contemporary Romance
The Unfinished Heroes Series is a series about anti-heroes, or, more accurately, heroes who don't know that they are heroes to someone/anyone. There is a lot of dark stuff in this series, chief amongst it all is the unconventional sex. Because of that all of the books have an XXX rating from me, although they vary in intensity. Currently the series is on sale ($1.99 each instead of $3.99 each book) in anticipation of the fifth and final book, Sebring, being released January 11, 2016. I am reviewing the books in order so the stories can be fresh in our minds when Nick's is available. If you haven't picked up these books, now is a great time to do so!
Overall Rating: 4.5 (XXX)
Quick & Dirty summary: Raiden Miller is a hometown hero, especially if your hometown happens to be Willow, CO, where Hannah Boudreaux has lived her whole life. Hannah didn't fall in love with Raiden the hero, though; she fell in love with Raiden the 10-year-old boy at her grandma's annual BBQ during a game of tug-of-war. Raiden doesn't notice she exists, until suddenly, he does and sweeps her off her feet. But Hannah knows that what you see isn't all that you get with Raiden, not after surviving a war. Hannah knows she's got her work cut out for her, and despite her Suzie Homemaker appearance and lifestyle, she knows she's got what it takes to walk through the fire for her man.
This is my favorite book out of the four books released in the series. Deacon comes a close second, but this one takes the cake. Typical of me, it's probably because Hannah is the slightly dorky, super cute heroine who isn't ashamed of herself that I totally relate to. She knits, makes homemade preserves and takes her grandma to church every Sunday. Not a lot of that screams sexy, but she is, and I love Kristen Ashley for that. The relationship between Hannah and Raiden isn't easy, but it is straightforward. There are a few bumps in the road, but nothing that seems like artificial drama. The book is mostly about how two totally different people settle into each other. How they learn to take each other the way they are, with no intentions of changing them. I like that.
Plus, one of my favorite quotes from any book, any genre is from this one. The first time I read it, I knew it was the truth put in a way I'd never heard of before. "…To be a mother," Mrs. Miller says, "you get to create these tiny little living, breathing dreams that grow up to be splendid things" and every time I look at my kids, I think that's the truth (223). There are tons of other quotes that I love from this book, which is yet another reason to savor this one. The wisdom of Grams, Spot the cat's hilarious antics, and Raiden's words of love all make the novel delightful.
This is the sweetest of the Unfinished Heroes books, and from what I've seen of the Sebring reviews the fifth book isn't going to change that. It's still dark, it's still thrilling, but Hannah gives it a coziness that tempers Raiden's struggles. The book is kind of like Hannah's front porch, and after you read the novel, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.
Is it worth buying? (Kindle $1.99 sale; $3.99 regular)
Something else you might enjoy:
Okay, you've already seen that you need to read the other books in this series. If you're interested in a book about a war hero struggling with his demons, then you might also enjoy Heaven and Hell, written by Kristen Ashley (if you click on the link it takes you to my review of the book), or you can try Making Faces by Amy Harmon, a young adult novel that is so gripping and powerful, you won't notice the absence of sex (again, if you click on the link from the title, it will take you to my review of the book).

See you at Larsen Tomorrow!
Thursday, July 1, 2010
Class information for 2010-2011
2010-2011We are so excited about our upcoming year! It will be hard to top last years production of Wizard of Oz, you all did such a fantastic job! But we feel that Annie and Robin Hood will be just the ticket. We are doing registration just a bit different this year. All registrations will be online and auditions will be held in class. Online registration will begin Monday Aug. 9th at www.reconline.spanishfork.org. Classes will be held on Wednesdays starting Sept. 1st. at Larsen Elementary 1175 E Flonette (300 S) Spanish Fork. This program runs through spring 2011 and will culminate with the presentation of two wonderful musicals. All classes will focus on musical technique, drama and dance skills, as well as give the student a chance to perform in a full scale musical with costumes, props and sets.
All students that register will be in the show.
Auditions are not necessary, but if you would like to audition for a lead or speaking part, please come prepared to read and sing a small song the first two weeks of class, otherwise you may register and we will assign your child a part.
Participants will pay a monthly fee of $40.00 per class. You will receive a discount of $5.00 per student if paid the day before the second class of the month. Each participant will also pay a lab fee of $35.00 per class, which will cover script and costume rental, and a T-shirt. Students may sign up for one or more classes.
Annie Jr.: It's upbeat plot and flamboyant characters have made Annie one of the most beloved musicals in history--what girl hasn't dreamed of performing the title role or playing the outrageous Miss Hannigan? But there are plenty of wonderful roles, a house full of orphans, Daddy Warbucks, Grace, the wicked Rooster and Lily St. Regis and many more. Come and join us in this enchanting show, where the sun will come out and tomorrow is always just a day away! This class is for youth ages 5-18 and will be held on Wed. from 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. We will perform in the large auditorium at Spanish Fork High school in Feb.
Robin Hood Tales of Ye Merry Woode: Deep in the heart of England treacherous Prince John and his cold hearted sister, Lady Kate are taking advantage of Good King Richard's absence. Raising taxes and taking the bread from the mouths of their citizens. But a group of brave men are not willing to bow down to this villainy. Through humor and adventure they protect the people of England until their rightful King returns. This show is full of fun and daring parts. This class is for youth ages 5-18 and will be held on Weds. from 5:15 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. We will perform this in the large auditorium at Spanish Fork High school in April.
Class size will be limited. Sign up early to ensure your place.

Here is the dialouge for the Entre Acte:
Aubrie: Welcome to Spanish Fork Youtheatre's production of Cinderella. We will be presenting today a beloved fairy tale, with origins that date back 600 years before the birth of Christ. There are many different versions of this tale and they come from the four corners of the earth.
Cheynne: There are more than 500 versions of Cinderella in Europe alone. Some vary widely, like the Norwegian tale "The Maid on the Glass Mountain" in which Cinderlad wins a beautiful princess.
Megan: Others, like the traditional German version are quite bloody with the step-sisters cutting off their heels and toes to fit into the golden slipper. But most, all over the world follow a similar pattern.
Rachel: In Vietnam, the story is called "The Brocaded Slipper", in Africa, "Nomi and the Magic Fish", and in Arab countries, "The Golden Sandal".
Julianna: The story has been told many different ways, such as a full length novel "The Glass Slipper" by Eleanor Farjeon, to the toddler book "Cinderella Penguin" by Janet Perlman, to a fully animated motion picture produced by Walt Disney.
Brielle:One version has a fairy dove and a magic hazelwood tree as Cinderella's helpers.
Garred: Cinder-Elly by Frances Minters is a modern rhyme version set in New York City. With the help of a bag lady Fairy Godmother, Cinder-Elly meets the star of a basketball team.
Ari: In a native American version of Cinderella, Little Burnt Face has two mean sisters. She wins the love of an Invisible Warrior by seeing him and describing what his bow is made of.
Sydney: In the book "Favorite Children's Stories from China and Tibet" by Lotta Carswell Hume. Shi-Chieh befriends a magic fish, her jealous step-mother kills it. But Shi-Chieh finds her wishes granted by praying over the fish's bones.
Jessica:The Korean Cinderella by Shirley Climo, tells of Pear blossom who is given a series of impossible tasks by her evil step-mother. Magical animals help her achieve them. And though she is not transformed into a princess, she wins the love of a wealthy magistrate.
Cheyenne B:Tattercoats is a bittersweet, old English story with a magic gooseherd, and a prince who falls in love with Tattercoats even in her rags.
Mckenna:The version we will use to present Cinderella is taken from the story written by Charles Perrault.
Julie: Charles Perrault was born in Paris, January 1628. Son of an upper-class bourgeois family, he attended the best schools and becomes a lawyer in 1651.
Chloe: His Stories or "Tales from Times Past, with Morals" and "Tales of Mother Goose" gave him great popularity and opened up a new literary genre: fairy tale.
Courtney: Among his most famous versions of fairy tales we can find, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Tom Thumb, Puss in Boots, and Little Red Riding Hood.
June: Perrault could not have predicted that his reputation for future generations would rest almost entirely on a slender book published in 1697 containing eight simple stories.
Jannesa: Charles Perrault, did not publish the book in his own name, but rather under the name of his son Pierre.
Cameryn: Perrault chose his stories well, and he recorded them with wit and style. His narratives belong to a story telling tradition that has been shared by countless generations.
Cheyenne: He did not invent these tales--even in his day their plots were well know-- but he gave them literary legitimacy.
MaiLia: Perrault always added a moral to his fairy tales. The Story of Cinderella, has two different morals, the first on being...
Group1: Beauty is a treasure rare.
Who complains of being fair?
Group 2: Yet there's still a something more
That good fairies have in store.
Group 3: 'Tis that little gift called grace,
Weaves a spell round form and face,
Group 4: Of each word makes magic, too
Lends a charm to all you do.
Group 5: This it was and nothing less--
Cinderella's fairy dress!
Group 1: And if you would learn the way
How to get that gift today--
Group 2:How to point the golden dart
That shall pierce the Prince's heart--
All: Ladies, you have but to be
Just as kind and sweet as she!
Megan K: In other words.. Beauty in a woman is a rare treasure that will always be admired. Graciousness, however, is priceless and of even greater value.
Kayla: This is what Cinderella's godmother gave to her when she taught her to behave like a queen.
Baily: Young women, in the winning of a heart, graciousness is more important than a beautiful hairdo. It is a true gift of the fairies.
Natalie: Without it nothing is possible; with it, one can do anything. The second moral is...
E.J.:Godmothers are useful things
Even when without the wings.
Garred:Wisdom may be yours and wit,
Courage, industry, and grit--
Everyone:What's the use of these at all,
If you lack a Friend to call.
Zoey: Without doubt it is a great advantage to have intelligence, courage, good breeding, and common sense. These, and similar talents come only from heaven, and it is good to have them.
June: However, even these may fail to bring you success, without the blessing of a friend. Please sit back and enjoy our show
Everyone: "Cinderella".

Why won't my Kodak mx1063 easyshare camera charge? At first I lost the original charger, so I bought a new one online. That didn't work, so I bought a new Rayovac Li-ion battery. I charged this and it worked. After the camera needed charging again, I plugged it in and nothing happened. The charging light didn't even come on. What should I do?

Shadow Shot Sunday #10
Hands are my favorite part of the human body. Whether the subject before me is male of female makes no difference, I always look at their hands. I don't care if the fingers are long or short, have good nails or bad, I just like hands. The small hands which belong to my son are naturally my very favorite of all. I love when he holds up a finger describing some new owie through crocodile tears, wanting a kiss to make it all better. Sometimes I mess it up. Sometimes he tells me that I kissed the wrong spot. I do my very best to suppress the giggle that so wants to come out! Instead, I'll ask him to point out his injury to me once more. He'll pause a moment and examine his fingers, choose a new spot and say, "Here, Momma." How simple it is to make things all better in Hugo Land.

How blissful to be in Hugo Land. I really miss kissing little fingers all better, but now I can occasionally do that with my grandchildren.

Lovely! I adore hands too; bad hands on a man turn me off. Funny. Is it genetic??

What a beautiful photo Alissa! I love that it's in black & white. Just gorgeous! Cute story about little Hugo. I don't have children, but sometimes when my dog receives an ant bite on her paw she expects me to kiss it better. As much as I love her, I don't oblige. I give her a little treat instead to placate her. Thankfully that strategy works :D

What a wonderful photo this is! I love hands too. I did a blog post on them quite a while back, with photos. This is a great SSS.

I too love hands, especially large male hands full of character and weathered work scars. You can feel the strengh in these hands by their rugged appearance.
But lil' Hugo's man-to-be hannies are adorable and oh so kissable, where ever the booboo is!

Gorgeous photo and lovely, tender post. I enjoyed scrolling down the page. Hugo looks to be pure joy. Hugo Land seems to be a wonderful and magical place. Nice to remember that some people (children) actually get joy out of snow. Still, I'm glad it's finally starting to melt here where I live.

"Wow! What a gorgeous dress! Right up my alley. Wherever did you find it, or did you make it? Feel like making another one?"
I wish I had the sewing skills to make that dress. I found it at an estate sale. Sold in one of my shops sometime fairly recently as I recall. Sorry...I'd make you one if I thought I could.

B/W makes for some of the best shadows, doesn't it? In color we'd have probably not even paid any attention to the shadows, but this just brings them right out! Nice!
