Mother's last gasp. I hope!!!!

Well I looked out the window last night and everything except the asphalt and the concrete were white. Yes, Mother Nature threw one last fit. At least I hope it will be the last one! Today it is over 50 degrees and all the white stuff is melted. The big mound out front is just a small pile of snow. A last hanger on of the fierce winter we suffered thru. A reminder that Mother can be vicious if she wants to. We came thru the blast of bad weather, and now deserve spring to arrive. The winds were fierce last night too. But nothing like the weather across the other states. Mud slides, and now floods with all the rain we have now! Yes Mother is not at peace yet. I'm sure this summer she will rear her ugly head some more. But we will survive whatever she decides to throw our way.

Mary got a plant delivered today. A start for the growing season. She got some weed paper to use in the garden. You spread the paper in your garden and poke holes for the plants. It keeps the weeds down. And she got some planting soil to put in the garden. To enrich the growing potential. We will soon be planting, and getting the gardens ready for the growing season. The kids will be playing outside and everything will be right with our world again. Except for Mary's older sister Shirley. It will be hard for her without her husband Donald. They liked to work together in the garden. This is the first spring without Donald, but I know she will be strong. Mary and her sisters are tough. They have to be to put up with us men.

Yes the good weather will be here shortly. But I know Mother will have some surprises for us. She never lets us down, just likes to throw some curves our way! She likes to see how we handle the hurdles she throws at us. Mother gives a lot of good weather too. Sometimes we go for weeks with nothing bad happening, then bang, something happens. Just to keep us on our toes. If we have life too easy we get lazy and need the bang to wake us up. Please Mother, just do not make the bang too big! We need time between to regroup so we can fight back. Well enough of my ravings about Mother for now. Life is good and I am happy, my pains are not too bad, and my life is full of good things right now. Lord just bless everyone and help us to be in good spirits. Do not let us ban you from our lives anymore. Thank you for the good things in our lives, and keep the bad times at a minimum. Remember Today's action becomes tomorrow's habit.  Make your habits all good ones! Habits are hard to break! So keep them all good!

Thank you for listening to me RAVE!
