Today, my 10 year old daughter hit a tree while skiing.  Fortunately, she was not badly injured and the xray shows nothing broken.  She will be very sore and bruised for a while though.

She is a firecracker of a kid.  4'4"; graceful like the dancer/artist she is and athletic like the soccer/lacrosse player she is.  Been on skis for more than half her life and an excellent carefree downhiller.  Also an aspiring snowboarder.

So here in the northeast, we have an unusual thing called February vacation that takes place the week of Presidents day.    It is a week off of school and a PITA for parents who need to scramble and figure out what to do with their kids for a week.  Especially tough where the parent or parents work.  Note that the kids also get a week in April for spring break.  But don't feel too jealous since these two weeks + inevitable snow days means the kids usually do not get out of school until the end of June.

Well, I have been a member for a bit over a week and its been great. I found out about this site from the XBL community night ad. Unfortunately, I was too late to get in on the Feb 8 event, but glad I joined up.

I am 42, married with 2 kids - a boy 12 and a girl 10. I live a "respectable" life in the day but now find myself immersed in the dark underworld of XBL. Staying up way too late during the week....
