Ramblings

 So much snow!  Even with the snowblower we cleaned only half of the driveway yesterday.  And we have a problem — the town plowed our street but left a huge pile of densely-packed snow at the foot of our driveway.   Ugh.

One of my garden flags apparently blew away in the storm.  The cute one, with the snowman and the Valentines hearts. Or maybe it’s buried under the snow.  Only time will tell. 

At least I can work from home.

I was able to take a walk Saturday —the photos will be posted for Skywatch Friday — but I won’t be able to do that again for awhile.   Pity, because I have a great new case for my water bottle, it even has room for my phone.

Great for walks at Jones Beach or Eisenhower Park.

Yeah, I’m thinking warm thoughts.

Baseball is back.  Yes, it’s just spring training, but still … the season begins March 26.  I’m looking forward to it.

We’re starting to think about summer vacation, a roadtrip to … not sure where.  We don’t want to go too far.  And we’re not looking to spend a lot, we’ve got the cruise planned in October.   And we’re also planning a short trip to visit friends in Florida. Can’t wait.

I’m hoping the landlord keeps her promise and removes the pool so we can make full use of the backyard.  It’s a nice-sized yard, and when we do the barbecues we will enjoy the extra space.

Sigh.  First I have to deal with 2 feet of snow …
