total destruction, replay

Okay. Apparently, the video I had in my previous post was from a TV station in Japan, and thus copyrighted and banned from you tube. Sooooo, I downloaded it, changed the name, and used blogger to post it. You should be able to see it now. :-)

It was quite amazing to see the water rushing into the city and watch everything wash away. I can't imagine what it must have been like for those people watching it all on the hill.

In other news, I've been a total slug today, no cleaning bug in sight! I did manage to sort all of the change we save over the year. I rolled them up and they'll be deposited in our mo-ho gas account. :-)

I also spread spectracide around the foundation of the house. It kills all bugs and helps keep the house bug free. :-)

And, we're trying a new dish for dinner, barbecued pinapple chicken. We'll have it with asparagus and wild rice.

And back to work tomorrow!

total destruction




Good morning,

I wanted to share this incredible video, taken by someone, as a town in Japan is consumed by the tsunami. You see the sea slowly filling the street, and then carrying away everything!
And back in Lansing.....
We had a nice quiet day at home. All of a sudden, (after watching that video) the snow outside doesn't seem so bad.
I replaced the door lock, and got into a cleaning frenzy. I scrubbed the toaster oven, the microwave oven, cleaned and dusted shelves, and cleaned all the windows and wall pictures. It's amazing how dirty glass can get.
Craig fixed an easy dinner of ham steaks, mashed potatos and gravy and butternut squash.
A nice, no natural disaster, kind of day. :-)
