Signs of Spring in Wisconsin:
1. The Badgers are in the NCAA Champsionship!!! Our reward for kicking some Wildcat butt last night – GO BADGERS!
2. The Sun is emerging from its winter hiatus. It’s re-appearance is a truly amazing event.
3. The snow is gone!!! No more shoveling this season! (I am choosing to ignore the predictions of possible snow next week – it will not stick)
4. It is the flu and allergy season… lots of sneezing, snorting, coughing and hacking… at our house and almost everywhere you go.
5. I am a work-widow. This is the hyper-busy season of Dan’s job at a local Marina. Tis the season that a boater’s fancy turns to the water.
6. Pasty white limbs are now visible in short-sleeves and the occasional optimistic pair of shorts. Sun glasses are advised.
7. Time to celebrate Easter and Dan’s mom’s 91st birthday. Rock on Betty!
8. Baseball season starts next week: Looking forward to another season of rooting on the Brewers. Luckily they have a stadium with a roof – for the confluence of predicted snow and the home season opener.
9. Prom is just around the corner. Guzzy will be going to her second prom in two years… good thing she’s agreed to wear the same dress this time around!
10. My darlin’ grand-daughters are turning two! And, there is nothing terrible about them.. although I will get back to you after babysitting them for a weekend in early May.
