What a busy week or two this has been.  I don't even know if I can remember everything to catch up on.  Let's see . . . Last Friday: It snowed like crazy on this day.  It was a mess by early evening.  So I was meeting up with Bryce for dinner and to go … Continue reading Catch Up

What is up with winter weather?  Who finds this enjoyable?   It is COLD.  My electric bill came yesterday and it was WAY over the top.  "Eating-mac-and-cheese-in-January" over the top.  I moved the thermostat down and as I type this blog my nose is literally frozen.  Wo-man was not meant to live this way.  Enough complaining … Continue reading Ice, Ice, Baby
