Yes, those are icicles

I know updates have been poor (nonexistent) today, and for that I apologize.  I've got a couple pics to post though.  This pic however is just a reality check of why I didn't post much today - I've been scraping ice off our (interior) windows and putting up plastic (which apparently insulates better than our crappy windows).

Can we really bring up a child in such squalor?

Ok, just kidding.  We really are very blessed by this house.  It just has old windows.
