Blitzed....

Okay, Lent is here and once again I'm giving up video games. The hardest of all is Bejeweled Blitz on FaceBook. It's sooooooo addictive and a fun connection to a lot of friends. A great filler when there's a bit of time on your hands. The problem is that it can easily fill a lot of time. So, we're now into day 2. It's hard. I'm being good, but........ LOL. One good thing is that my reading has picked up and my scarf is now a foot longer........

Snowy Sunday Musings

I woke up at 4 AM this morning to the sounds of a stuck snowplow. Oops! It sounded like we were in the midst of a raging snowstorm. Just another six inches. It was a beautiful snow - light and fluffy, just right for shoveling. Although the wind kept sweeping the snow back on the the paths I just finished, it was a great morning to be outside. I really enjoy this kind of weather. Winter is when I feel most alive.

When the shoveling was finished, the hard work was rewarded with the Sunday crosswords for the late morning. Then came an afternoon of reading, football, and some Bejeweled. What a great day.

I was happy to see Pittsburgh win and sorry to see the Giants lose. What a terrible game for Eli and his team. I guess I'll be rooting for the Steelers to go all the way. I don't dare check my fantasy results. Last week I was in last place in my buddy group and in about 21,000 place overall. Not a good year.
