Shan, you never know--your granddaughter may take a spurt one of these days and surprise everybody. My youngest grandson, 15 months, has been small for his age so far, but he seems to be making some progress. He's had food tolerance problems. Seems like nearly everybody in my family does, but his were more severe for a while.
IamRed, I can understand how you feel. I was tempted to skip this time but I went on ahead.
Robin, I know what it's like to not get to vote in the primaries. In my county there are some years when the only ticket up for vote is Democrat, while other years it has only been open for Republicans. I was surprised this morning to see they were both up for voting.
Kat, I think winter went over the hill--or else up to Wisconsin. I heard a few days ago that one of the Dakotas had record high temperature. Here, the elm trees along the creeks are almost full with leaves now. My Chinese Pistachio, the only big tree in my yard, is already budding. Ornamental pear trees in the towns, and wild plum bushes in the country, are blooming.
Manda, FOUR INCHES of snow? That would be a major event here.
Tropical Breeze, glad you got to visit your boy! I'm still smiling about the dog having Spring Fever!
Poirot, I can't think of anything suitable to say about 10 degrees!
Wayne, I'm sorry, I just couldn't help but laugh when I read that you had merged our "threats." I got this vision of you and me standing over everyone with whips in hand, telling them to go vote!
