Good early morning everyone Up extra early today to take D/S to the city competition of the history fair as he won 1st place in his high school a couple weeks ago with his project on The Iroquois Theater Fire. Don't know if I'll ever understand why people get up this early unless you have to be somewhere.
Hope everyone has a happy Saturday!

I wasn't up as early as Robin but close. Often I find it nice to awaken early and enjoy the start of a new day at a more leisurely pace. Even when I actually worked for a living the worst thing was to be rushed in the morning. It set the tone for the whole day.
Today is the REAL tax day. I was going to do it last Thursday but the brain had other plans so it was delayed until today. I'm not too rushed because I know that I will need to do my part to cut the deficit and write a check to Uncle Sam and the State of Minnesota.
From what the talking heads are saying we will be having a March Snowpacolypse tomorrow and Monday. Snow this time of year can be a real bear. It's wet and heavy and not easy for the snowblower to handle and REALLY hard to shovel. I hope Betty is in good shape so she can take care of it.
I hope all have a great Saturday and wonderful weekend.
Take care,
Mike

Good morning everyone from a coolish Bradenton Florida but I'm not complaining since spring still seems to be on hold back in Ontario. Our daughter and grandson have joined us so we will enjoy entertaining them for the next week. Have a good day!
I will have to take it easy today after all the walking I did at Disney in the last four days.
Have a nice weekend everybody.

Morning Mates. We are in a Winter Wonderland once again, after having it all gone just a day or two ago. Not only that, there is another big one coming Tues. into Wed. so it's not over yet.
Meanwhile, the sun is shining at least, and it is trivia night tonight, so we have something to look forward to.
Good morning from Virginia Beach, where it is "raining cats and dogs". I did slip out this morning to go to Kohl's because I garnered a $10.00 couoon, online. I used that to buy some sauces that were already 40% off. Aerogirl, congratulations to your son on winning a competition! Hope all of my fellow cruisemates have a wonderful day!
Happy Saturday everyone from beautiful Erial, NJ! Slept in until almost 10 am, I don't know how the alarm dog allowed that to happen . Although Marj took her and the rest of the Bad Doggie Gang out early, she usually does not tolerate much sleeping past 8 am.
Had a nice dinner out last night with Marj at PF Changs. Discovered Revolution Tea as a result, excellent stuff. Yesterday we took the 3 dogs to the beauty parlor and got back three cute little Irish girls. ,
No gardening or lawn care this weekend due to the cold but I am fully stocked to fertilize, vanquish crabgrass and beat back marauding moss. I will be tending to the tomatoes I have sprouting in the man cave.
Everyone have a great weekend and Happy St Pats to ye! I am mostly Irish myself but a darned Englishman sneaked into the family tree and gave me my last name.

Oh brother, I just realized I started the morning thread with "Sunday"...thanks to Mike or whoever put me in my place!
Having a week off work has left me totally confused as to what day it is!
Another cloudy and cold wintery day here .Will hot weather ever arrive ?
Hot weather will arrive eventually.
