Stormy Christmas

It's a wild and windy night, and I'm thankful to be indoors... Reminds me of the opening of Madeleine L'engle's "A Wrinkle in Time." This is the worst storm I've seen in Redwood City in at least three years... maybe even in the six years we've lived here. It's funny, I used to live with big thunderstorms all the time in Indiana, but they're just not common here on the West Coast... I kinda had the heebie-jeebies, and then Luanne walked up the stairs (she had been fast asleep last time I had seen her), and I about jumped out of my skin! Well, I'm grateful to be safe and warm inside the house. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.

you are so right... josh and i had read through the first three books and really liked them (we're still struggling with Many Waters), so i thought the disney movie would be great. it was SOOOO bad. it was laughable. they re-wrote the whole plot at the end! i can sit and cry at the end of that book because it's so beautiful, and all i wanted to do at the end of that movie was throw something at the TV.
