Feb 1, 2011

February 1st ?!!  Yikes, 8.5 percent of 2011 is over already!

Well, the cold front has arrived.  I woke up to temps in the low 30’s and that’s about as warm as it will be for a couple days.

I’m happy to report that the window shades and curtains in the gameroom seem to be working.  The temp in the gameroom was the same as the rest of the house… for the first time on a cold winter day. (yay!)

Even with the shades and curtains, this room still gets a ton of light in the daytime, with the skylights.   The houseplants in the gameroom love it.

This is an ivy plant from a basket my mom sent me for my birthday several months back.   So far so good.

Well, tonight I went out to dinner with friends, and meant to bring my camera to get some shots of downtown Austin at night, but I left it behind.

So, you get the ivy shot instead 😉
