1st day of spring!

  • Yay, winter is over! Here in NM winter was no big deal, but the east took a beating this year.
  • Here’s hoping that things even out and we all get what we need for the spring and summer months.
  • Nice looking day in the forecast of today. Let’s hope she’s right today. Can’t believe a nice little Dutch girl would lie, but I think the occupation requires it.
  • Erin leaves us today. I hope her bout of the flu is now over. She had a rerun of the 24 hour flu the next morning and yesterday it seemed to pass in the afternoon.
  • Nina wants us to rent an apartment in Europe for a year after we finally sell this dump. Sounds like fun.
  • I wonder if Erin will fit into the luggage still?
  • Haboob? Who in the world would name a big wind a haboob? Must be some presidential muslim decree. Haboob my ass.
  • Brother Carl heads to the Netherlands soon. Safe travels Carl.
  • He and his son Zach are doing a river cruise from Amsterdam. Beth and Nancy made their trips sound so good that Carl had to try it.
  • One of my favorite foods, for both breakfast and an evening snack, has been unavailable out here for quite some time. I checked on Amazon for them and found I could buy them in a case lot of 12 boxes, so I ordered a case of unfrosted brown sugar cinnamon Pop-Tarts for about $30. DAMN they taste good!
  • The best part about them is that no one else likes them and they’re all mine! Well, maybe Erin hasn’t tasted them yet, so I may have to share with her.
  • The news parrots just spent around 5 minutes talking about team mascots and they expressed dismay that the NM school’s mascots ranked at some of the worst in the nation. Morons.
  • I’m going to the doctor today for a check up and we’re going to pirate this last visit with Dr. Greene to get things for ML done too. I hate the fact the Greene is leaving the area because of some asshole’s healthcare mandate. Since the ACA was implemented, Dr. Greene has been subjected to serious abuse by the recipients of this new welfare perk. He found a off network group that can still pick and choose patients in Colorado that needs a new doctor and he’s headed there next month.
  • I may have to travel to CO for care in the future. Hey, great excuse to buy a motorcycle! Right?
  • Marylou will shit a chicken when she finds out that Greene is leaving the area and the reason for his leaving. Can’t wait for that conversation.

Have a great day everyone! Love, peace, and chicken grease!
