“Dang
it!” said Mike. He had planned a bike ride yesterday afternoon – and the day
before that and the day before that – but windy conditions prevailed. The wind
at your back is fine but headwinds and crosswinds are no fun. Yesterday, he took
Bess on a long hike in lieu of a bike ride, but today he was determined to
cycle, wind and all.
It
froze again last night – 28 this morning. The forecast is for highs in the 70s
next week, working up to almost 80 on Wednesday the 26th, if this forecast
can be believed. Then the highs drop back into the 60s and it might rain. I
say, “might rain,” because so often it doesn’t. Overall, I guess we shouldn’t
complain about our mild weather.
The daffodils have begun to trumpet that spring is here, and with their announcement we see the need to pull weeds, cut back old growth, and get rid of that pesky grass!
I’m
off on another project tangent, putting everything aside to crochet a shrug, or
shoulderette, to wear to court in a couple of weeks. My basic outfit is a
t-shirt over black slacks, so I thought something that might dress it up a bit would
be nice. I have ordered two shirts from this Etsy company. The first, a medium, was snug, so this one I ordered in a large, and it's way BIG. Too late. I'll just have to make the best of it.
Meanwhile, I have been on an emotional roller-coaster as I prepare my speech. KW

It will be nice when we don’t have to think about this event anymore.
It has usurped my life, but only because I let it. It's my one opportunity to stand up and say what I think, even if my audience is limited. I feel like I'm speaking in the enemy camp, even though they are nice to us.
