But then I already knew that. Today the sun is shining brightly and our local groundhog Gertie in Peoria saw her shadow. This means 6 more weeks of winter. It is 8 degrees here this morning with the sunshine glistening on the snow. It is 46 more days till Spring. We have more snow to come on Tuesday.
I did go out and get my car cleaned off yesterday. The snow weighed a ton and was hard for me to lift a shovel full. The snow that was packed against my tires I just pushed back on the sidewalk. I wonder each time I go out to clean the snow off my car if it will be the last time. I hate to admit it but I think I am getting too old for this.
I am just about to finish the Lisa Jackson book I am reading. It is a page turner and I didn’t want to put it down to go to bed. I was sitting here reading last night about 10:15 when my doorbell rang. I think I jumped a foot. It was only a couple of weeks ago that I received a call from the police station informing me that a registered sex offender had moved into our neighborhood. The police do call all of the people in the neighborhood to give them a heads up. They give you the name, address and description of the offender.
Fortunately for me it was a delivery from a pizza place for my new neighbors. How can can anyone eat pizza at 10:30 at night? And then I remembered it is a young couple in their 20s. When I was that age I could eat pizza late at night too! Oh to be young again!!
Is everyone all geared up for the Super Bowl?? I am not a football fan but my husband sure was right from the days he played football in high school. I must admit that I admire the uniforms that the football players wear though. I only like sports that I really understand like baseball featuring my beloved St. Louis Cardinals and basketball featuring my beloved ILLINI who are not doing so well right now.
Have a wonderful day. Stay safe and be happy!!
Beth
