Hello there Internet.

 

This week has been rather long, so I am thankful it is over.

 

I am also thankful that the snow is almost gone.

 

The robins have shown up, and that means spring is on its way.

 

What are you thankful for this week?

Hello Internet.

 

Hello Blog.

 

Why didn’t I post yesterday?   I woke up late.

 

Then there was the 6 inches of snow on top of 1½” of ice that I had to deal with.

 

That meant that I had to leave early so I could creep through town so I could get to work.

 

I did not make the scones.

 

I was busy spending time with my girl and I didn’t get to the store to get all the required ingredients.

 

Next week, it will be done.

Hey there Internet.

 

It is Monday and I am nosy.

 

1. How and when did you learn to swim?
2. How and when did you learn to drive?
3. How and when did you learn to tie your shoelaces?
4. How and when did you learn to cook?
5. How and when did you learn to type?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

1.   I can not remember learning to swim….mom?  dad?   do you remember???

 

2.   My dad taught me to drive in Moore, Oklahoma the year I turned 16.   I’ll never forget him taking me to the high school parking lot and teaching me to park..great memories.

 

3.  Again…don’t remember

 

4.   I learned by watching my mother all my growing up years.

 

5.   I learned to type in high school on one of the first electric typewriters…the school didn’t have the funds to purchase new ones.   I think I was in 10th grade.

 

How about you?

Today I am thankful.

 

I am thankful for…

 

♥  Superman putting up a new curvy shower curtain.  Now there is no attack of the shower curtain every morning.

 

♥  The gorgeous weather this past week.   After months and months and months of 5-25º weather, the 60º was down right luxurious.

 

♥  Finding out from a commercial that by eating Lucky Charms I’m getting in my daily required amount of whole grains to make me healthy.   Who knew!?!

Dear Survivor!

 

Even though Philip and his teeny tiny fuschia briefs, and his “secret government agent” job are just entertaining….he is irritating me to the nth degree…he must go!

 

Signed,

Already disturbed by the first episode

 

PS.   I really like Ralph.

Today’s TWD is Chocolate Oatmeal Drops.

 

Oh….chocolate you spoil me.

 

Oh….oatmeal, you help me to be healthy.

But when we mix them, I can have the best of both worlds.

Who needs Activia when you have Chocolate Oatmeal Drops Brownies???

Thank you Caroline and Claire for such a great pick.

1. What’s a pretty good sign that your day at work or school is going to be rough?
2. What’s a pretty good sign that your day at work or school is going to be terrific?
3. What’s a pretty good sign that you should probably eat out?
4. What’s a pretty good sign that you’re going to spend more money than you should?
5. What’s a pretty good sign that someone you’ve just met is going to be a pretty good friend?

1.  When I get dressed and nothing looks right.

 

2.  When people smile at me.

 

3.  When there is nothing in the house to eat.

 

4.  When the car breaks down.

 

5.  When they actually ask about me and are genuinely interested in me.
