Rise and Shine! Yeah I know, that's a lot to ask!! Well we officially all survived to Spring. Soon the trees and the flowers will be budding open. I burned a bunch of fallen timber and cleaned up the yard. Bring on bikini season ;D 10-27-99

LOL Don! Bikini season indeed, although I cannot remember the time I looked good in a bikini, it has been so many years...maybe as a kid LOL.
It is rainy and icy here in Minnesota but I still like the fact that we are getting rain and not snow. It has been one heck of a long winter!
I am still smoke free and very grateful for each day that I don't smoke. I actually took my bicycle out a week ago this past Saturday and took a ride along Brighton Beach and it was muddy and messy but so worth it to me. I was really going through withdrawals this winter. I love biking and know I could not ride back and forth to work and everywhere I go if I was still smoking 2 packs a day. No way!
Have a great week everybody!

Just in from my morning walk. Fell on the ice a couple of weeks ago and pulled some muscles in my calf. Still a long way to go to heal and walk without a limp. I am here and still smoke free.

Checking in from the West Coast where it has been chilly and rainy with snow mixed in during the late evening hours but on Friday, the first day of spring, at about 4:30 p.m., the sky cleared and the sun came out and it was beautiful. This lasted over the weekend and then it got chilly again, with rain and snow mix during the late hours. Still, I notice the buds coming out and a lot of birds making a lot of happy sounds. I saw two poor souls in the corner of the plaza at our office building, huddled and smoking in the cold wind this morning while I breezed by. I sent them a silent prayer.
Ann, I hope your calf heals soon. It's tricky weather isn't it. You mention that you walk around the lake in the mornings. Is that one of the Great Lakes? Which one? I have lately developed a great curiosity about the Great Lakes. They are amazing.
Have a great week everyone!

Your ahead of the game Don...already cleaned up the yard....nice! I am thinking about it and wishing the kids would do it LOL Isn't it true that we did more chores and helped out more around the home than our kids do...is that true for all of you who have kids? I am going to have to start cutting up some cheese to go with the wine i hear daily. None of this will bring back the smoking tho....done...gone...thank God!

Sorry to hear about your muscles in your calf Ann. I will say some prayers that you heal sooner then later. That is painful!

Late but here. Are we getting older? Played cards last night, sat for hours and when we finished and rose to leave, bad knees & backs made us look like a geriatric fire drill!

MK! Gosh, you haven't been around in ages! The last time you were on this site, I think I had just joined. I'm still here and it will be three years come May.
Congratulations on your nine years and one week!
