It's all about the weather!

Currently there are no health issues on the table so I might as well address the big issue of the day - snow! I would say that we got at least a foot and a half. Probably the biggest snowstorm that we have had in a while. But, when you can stay at home, it's no problem and, here at the condo, they clear it all out for you. So, now we have been totally cleared and we're ready to go.

Yesterday, I went to a neighbor's house to look at the task list that she wished to have done. Nothing major except for some issues with blinds. Those things are the devil's invention when it comes to straightening them out. Everything else is straightforward - some electrical work, painting, a little carpentry, computer work, etc. It'll keep me busy.

As I said above, no health issues, eyesight wise, I think that I am still the same. Is that good or bad? I don't know.

As for other activities, my wife "suggested" that I replace the one shelf in our little laundry area with two - so I did that. As my brother-in-law has said, we squeeze out every last inch of storage that we can.

It's been set up for Sunday to return to my mother-in-law's room to go over her things. Never a happy time - but it's something that has to be done. As I looked at the snow today, all I could think of was how fortunate we were that it didn't snow like this last week! It would have made everything real messy regarding my mother-in-law's wake and funeral.

Like the energizer bunny, I just want to keep going and going and going...
