It’s Just Around The Corner

Spring! I enjoy stupid puns. Every time someone says that spring is just around the corner, I think of the above picture! Despite having a big snow a few days ago, the temperatures are rising and the snow has pretty much melted away. We actually got over 60 degrees today!

2021 – What a Year!

At midnight tonight, we'll start a brand new year - 2022. Some have compared a new year to a book. The book with 365 blank pages - one for each day - and said that the book is ours to write.

“Just Write”

I have been at a loss for what to write the past few weeks. I'm not sure if that is because I am busy with other things or if I've run out of things to talk about. Everything I read about blogging always says "Just write!" So here I am - writing. I went through … Continue reading “Just Write” →

A Smile Amid Chaos

All you had to do this week was turn on the news, check your social media page, or surf the internet to see the chaos going on in the world.

Snowfall …

I'm probably in the minority here, but I just love watching the snow fall. This week, they predicted that we would get about 2 to 4 inches of snow. As the snow approached, they began to change their predictions. It was going to be a "hit or miss" depending on where you lived. When I … Continue reading Snowfall … →

Winter Storm and Winter Songs

According to the calendar, it is still officially Autumn.  There are still colored leaves on the trees here in Michigan.  Many people haven't even started raking them yet.  This, however, may be the shortest Autumn I can remember as we were hit today with quite the winter storm! I guess we broke the record today … Continue reading Winter Storm and Winter Songs →

Thank you anti-lock brakes ….

Winter.  Love it or hate it, it happens every year.  For some, they experience it without snow, however, here in Michigan, snowy winters are a sure thing.  Let me say that I do not mind a little bit of snow, especially around the holidays.  I've always wondered what it must be like to live in … Continue reading Thank you anti-lock brakes …. →
