That’s right. I had the day off work…it was 80 degrees (seriously, it was)…and the only thing I had to do was run over to the doctor’s office for a blood draw…in and out in less than 10 minutes. So I had plenty of time to enjoy the early summer-like weather. I decided to get [...]

..oh wait, it isn’t, is it? Here in central Indiana it sure feels like it. I think it topped off at about 77 degrees today…sunny..a light breeze. Very pleasant.

…how I haven’t really missed you. I could have been perfectly content to have you stay far away until, oh I don’t know, maybe next December. But no, you had to show up over night here in Indiana and make my morning more than a little uncomfortable. You decided to visit us with your freezing [...]

Brr…what a difference a couple of days can make in central Indiana. We had temps in the 70s on Tuesday and snow this afternoon. Granted, the snow didn’t amount to anything, but it still surprised me to see snow spitting as I was driving home from work. I always like snow at first, but after [...]

I must say today was a much better day for me than yesterday was. No corporate people showed up at my house to give me a hard time…ha! I slept in until…oh…5:30 or so…got up, fed the cats, put the tea kettle on, fixed breakfast and sat down at the computer for an hour or [...]

Did you feel the earth move Tuesday? Well, I didn’t. I’m in Indiana, the earthquake was on the east coast. I’ve heard a lot of people saying they felt it around here, but I’m not one of them. I heard about it online and immediately thought of my niece and her husband in the DC [...]
