Things My Father Taught Me: The best revenge is to live well, and don't let the hate and indifference get to you. It's too easy to forget that life is short and quite brittle. The world cries out for peace, love, and understanding, but everyone is caught up in their own dramas. Step back, take a... Sign in to see full entry.

More Updates and the Story Continues
Good morning. We picked up about four inches of snow last night, but if this area is good at one thing, it is keeping the roads well cleared. The ten-day forecast says it will stay with the highs in the low thirties with lows in the low twenties. Not what I was hoping to be experiencing by now, but... Sign in to see full entry.

We had a lovely walk this afternoon. Instead of our regular two to three miles, we only walk about three-quarters of a mile. The wind was actually quite nice, and we enjoyed ourselves. Lisa is taking a short nap to rest up. I need to keep her moving, but I know that she needs her rest. My brother... Sign in to see full entry.
A 'decent' day outside. It is about 30 degrees, and the big snowstorm they predicted for us last night swept just three miles to the north of us. Amen! While I am not happy about it, we are just 'chilling' here, waiting for something to happen about our house sale and us moving. I'm getting anxious,... Sign in to see full entry.

We took heed of the 'winter storm warnings' I was getting in my email for our home county, and we left Lansing about 5 PM last night. We hit a massive snowstorm in the Gaylord area that lasted about seventy miles. Traffic on M-127, a main thoroughfare, sometimes freeway, sometimes highway that, just... Sign in to see full entry.

Lisa and I decided to take a trip down to Lansing today. This was kind of a last-minute situation, so all we did was pack a bag and jump in the car. We are now south of the Mackinac bridge and headed down i-75 towards Lansing. All is going well so far. I'm hearing there's fairly decent snow down... Sign in to see full entry.

Sorry for the late entry today. It was about 9 degrees last night with an extremely brisk wind coming out of the west-northwest. I think I heard them say that the 'feels like' temp was about -15. It sure felt like it! The wife seems to be doing well. She is still going to bed about 8-9 PM and up... Sign in to see full entry.

It's late, but I thought I'd leave a quick note before the evening was over. It is snowing like crazy here, and the wind is blowing at least 45-50 mph, and it is dropped all the way down to 18°. Isn't that lovely? I really can't complain, although I really want to, by this time last year, we already... Sign in to see full entry.
Thanksgiving Thoughts
We had a sleet storm last night, erasing any idea of going anywhere today. That's alright, we will be just fine. The extracurricular family went to their various homes a day ago, leaving just my wife and our dogs - my family. We have a few things going wrong here, but we are thankful our core family...
