I missed you all last week.  My computer is back and working well! After dealing with crazy pop ups and it running very slowly, it's a relief to have it back to normal.

In other news from last week, my sister and I had to bring my Dad back to the ER again.  He was feeling crummy, short of breath and his heartbeat was irregular.  They tried several medications, but ended up having to shock his heart back into the correct rhythm.  It's amazing to see how quickly he feels better once that is corrected.  They let him go back home that night and he had several tests done this week.  We're hoping that when he goes back to the specialist next week, they'll have a plan to help.  Having this happen monthly doesn't seem like a good thing.

Alaina spent the night here Friday.  Our cat Oliver is already tormented when she comes over because she chases him every time he gets near her.  This time she threw his toys off his bed and decided to sit on it.  Good thing he really isn't too fond of it anyway.

 

I saw this cool rainbow spot in the sky on Saturday.  I've heard them called sundogs and they happen when the sun shines on ice crystals in a cloud.  They're not quite like seeing a rainbow, but are still pretty fun!

And the snow continued last week....   I'll tell you more about that tomorrow.

A week of crazy Michigan weather

We've had such crazy weather in Michigan this winter. We usually have a lot of snow by January, but this year we had only a dusting until last week when I shared these pictures with you.  That was on Monday.  On Tuesday the temperatures went up, the snow melted and we got fog, lots of fog!  These pictures were taken at about 1pm, and it continued to get foggier until late in the night when it started to rain.  It was crazy having thunderstorms in January!

My neighbors farm

I thought this drive looked a little creepy with the hand lettered keep out and the fog.

You can hardly see the road!

Down my road, the fog hangs over a field.

So, this was Tuesday.  On Wednesday the temperatures dropped again and it started snowing.  By Thursday it was pretty nasty out and Friday all the schools around were cancelled.  

This picture was taken of a picnic table at work on Friday.  All this snow fell since Wednesday and it's been falling since then.
I think I've seen enough for this year!

On another note - my computer is acting up and I think it's time to take it in for a check up.  I won't be around till it comes back unless I borrow Bob's or Heathers.
See you when I return!

Sad Anniversary

Last month we marked another year of legalized abortion.  The number of babies that have been aborted since Roe vs. Wade is astounding and hard to comprehend.  I recently saw this clip that puts those numbers into perspective in a powerful way and had to share it.
