March 12 Nooz

Good morning, It's almost 40 degrees already, the snow is melting and I brought in some forsythia branches to force. About the time we get back from Florida, they'll be in leaf and bloom. Also planted my flower seeds in pots.

Went to Curves this morning and it's dark again when I go, thanks to Daylight Savings time.
It was beautiful yesterday, sunny and warming up. We went to the farm and then over to South Haven via all the back roads we could find. The ice is still on the beach about 100 yards out to the open water. Lots of folks walking around downtown and on the pier and beaches. There are 2 huge house on the parking lot next to Filbrandts now at the corner. I almost didn't recognize the corner on Erie. Saw Jake and April, John Pau and Caleb and Chris, John was in Detroit for a bowling tournament. Then we drove down to Deerlick Park where Tom and Kaycee could go out on the ice and play catch - in the water for Kaycee. Didn't bother her a bit. Stopped at DiMaggio's for early pizza and beer. Ummmmm goood.

Tom called Kelly on the way over to So Haven. She and Jay were getting ready to go roller skating again. She had already run 11 miles that morning and taken a rest. She has been thinking about applying to several important administration positions at MSU. Go for it, girl!

Talked to CC while I was waiting to pick up Leo and Devon Swiat at the Kalamazoo train station from their trip to Florida via Chicago. She could hear the train whistle on the cell phone as it came into the station. They stayed home this weekend, Charles did the lawn work(amazing to already need to do lawn work) on Saturday, Ceece didn't have to work all weekend so they partied Saturday night. Sunday, Charles watched the NCAA tourney, sorry about NCState.

Called LeeceMcFleece when I got home, too late for Chaz and Ray although I want to find out about the Pine Wood Derby results. Lisa got her hair cut, yes folks, it's down or up to her neck. So we need pictures!!! like CC's do. The OU comforter came in for Brady's room so it's finished and he's been up there for a week now, loves it. Congratulations to Brady for being selected for Berea's 13 year old travel baseball team, very competitive. He gets a real uniform and everything. Lisa finished painting the trim in the family room and is thinking of replacing the old oak dining table and chairs in there with a new black set and lighting fixture. Some of you have never seen the incredible change in their family room, so differant and a lot of work on Brian's part. Kudos to you, Brian. Pictures please, Brady of the haircut and the room.

This is a busy week before we leave for Florida. Tomma's birthday is Friday the 16th, cards and letters are welcome. He had a touch of stomach trouble over the weekend but is back to work today. I have to hold a deal together, hopefully, attend a couple of board meetings and rehearsals, pack, arrange for the dog and get on the road early enough to make it to Daphne and Bens for dinner Saturday night in Atlanta. So, no nooz next week but luff to you all and lots of pictures when I get back.
