Tomorrow it will be 8 months since Mike so rudely left me. (Not that he could help it; I just get a little testy when the 7th of any month rolls around) So, in testament to him, I am leaving the frozen tundra called Ohio. I have had lovely visits with my son and his family, my sisters and friends, but I am really tired of being cold! So is Gina - she turned three on the 5th of February and has let me know in no uncertain terms that the cold is not her favorite place!! So a short stop to see my niece in SC, then to visit a friend in Charlotte, NC then to the beach in NC to see if they have escaped all of this!! My oh my, I really don't know how anyone lives here. I mean, I know I did as a kid, but my senses must have been dulled because I could not do it anymore! Had a great visit with our friends, Marilyn and Jack in Euclid (luckily, we did not have to leave their house!!). When Mike went to Fenwick, he earned a black oiled wood letter sweater, which he gave to me, and it has saved me because I have worn it almost everyday, along with all my other clothes.
For those of you who have read this before, Janet is now in a "boot" and well on the way to recovery! And I had an unexpected pleasure of having lunch with a cousin from New Mexico, who just happened to be in Cleveland at the same time. Obviously, we don't see each other very often, so it was quite a treat!
Next month I will be rolling into 69 years of age and while I feel like I am 30, the mirror sends me terrible things to see most mornings! Therefore, if either Ellen or Oprah should come across this blog, and would like to give a major makeover to a wandering widow, I would really, really, really like to be a candidate. I would even be willing to work for either party to work off the cost. - Oh well, just a thought. I started this tonight to tell you all something, but, for the life of me, I cannot remember what it was. When I do, I'll check back in. Wishing you all sunshine and warmth. Thanks for tuning in.
