Heading into the weekend, Spring is getting closer and the sun is starting to feel some warmth here. And a special weekend to celebrate Mom’s 91st birthday coming up this week. She has had a rough 91st year. Her knee is pretty bad and not walking much, and not a good candidate for surgery. But she has adapted well to the wheel chair and her new assisted living apartment. And overall keeps a positive attitude. So we will see what the next year brings. She has said it is OK to pray for her not to have pain, but not to pray that she lives longer. These pictures are back from the 70’s and 80’s I believe!
Chris and Marie had a wonderful time in Florida. The weather was warm until a couple of nights when they were about to come home, but still not bad. So coming home was a ‘jolt’, even though we are having a mild winter here in Wisconsin. I see this morning it is 77 in Boynton Beach, 41 in Albuquerque, and 29 here. That’s Fahrenheit Charles! But my goal is to get to Florida each month this winter, and we are doing pretty good. We will have another long weekend in March. I have a project going on in the kitchen and hope to accomplish a little more on the next trip. Work continues as a challenge as I keep busy with projects but the plants are down from the economy, and the printing industry is a dying industry not a growing one.
So the days are getting longer and Spring is getting closer. Lent starts this week. Stay positive and enjoy life. It sounds like there was some good news for Charles wife, we will keep the prayers for that to continue!
