Sunday January 17th
Where is the sunshine? It was supposed to be a nice weekend. But yesterday in Milwaukee the sun did not come out until mid afternoon and today there was just a glimpse late in the day. But it could be a lot worse. Temperatures around 30 in January are welcome.
Friday night we got together with Dick and Carol in Greendale, it had been awhile so that was nice. Saturday shopped for Mom and saw Muriel. Then headed home mid afternoon. Moved some firewood, and we went to see a movie last night. Up in the Air, I liked it. Not as good as Blind Side but still entertaining and makes you think!
Today I walked down by the lake and see there has been a lot of shifting near the shoreline. Unusual, and not good. Looks like my supports right at the shoreline have been pushed and will need some work before the thaw. And I’ll need to do some work on the shore station to stablize it. Lot’s of deer tracks in our yard also. I’ll need to encourage them to go elsewhere before things start growing in Spring.
Friday I had my job position change. The good news is I was on the right side of WFR (work force reduction) so I am still there. Not entirely surprising. I expected changes at some point just did not know when. So have some different priorities and more plants to work with.
So hope you have a good week. Tomorrow a special day to remember Dad, gone 5 years, and Phil who left us last year.
Thanks for the e-mail birthday card.
We enjoyed seeing you Friday night and had a good meal. Had the boys and Wendy and the grandkids over tonight for Birthday Cake. Tomorrow I will have breakfast with two old frends. This celebrating is fun.
Have a good week!
