Today's Schedule & The Story Continues

I think yesterday will be the last day that we see 50 degrees here in the UP until next spring. Today is forecasted to hit about 45, with steadily declining temps all next week. Come on, bank loan manager! Lol. I didn't want to see any more snow, let alone drive south in a raging blizzard. I can't... Sign in to see full entry.

Lisa spoke with her aunt last night, and after some discussion, we have decided to drive down to Lansing to see her family today. It was one of those last minute things, so we need to hit the trail ASAP after we both overslept. It's a matter of one of them needing ' A Human Touch.' Lisa says to tell...

On Writing and Assorted Crap

I keep hoping that the day I can safely tell you that we are Florida bound, but it won't be this weekend.
