April-Rain-Snow-Flowers

Wow, April 5th and snow! Look as hard as this is to accept keep in mind that we have seen kids bundled up for Easter Sunday – those lovely Easter outfits covered with heavy coats and boots. However, it still irritates and after cold days of winter, we still have this flippin cold sheet!

My brother-in-law informed me earlier it is 80+ degrees in Florida and yes they have sun but in his words it is HOT! Hey, I don’t necessary want hot but warm would be nice! I also noticed the snowbirds are not anxious to return north either. Use to be they headed back to us in late March but no more, they are holding off until almost the end of April. Now that is just plain rude!

On the news front, we got all sorts of stories. I love the Michelle Obama – Queen Elizabeth crap. Ye gads, Queenie touched her first folks, and it was a brief hand on the Queen’s shoulder, it wasn’t like she hugged her for crying out loud. And the Queen didn’t seem to mind, no blistering look like she gave George when he winked at her. Instead she said, “now that we have met, let’s keep in touch.” Personally I found it refreshing and lovely…you go Michelle, we’ll back you 100 percent.

Hey, lost your job, English ain’t so hot, well for crying out loud, don’t go shooting up someplace like that crazy Vietnamese man did – holy dog shit!

Did we just switch centuries of what? All of a sudden we got more and more fools with guns, shooting things up and boot hill is once again active and filling up. And we got folks saying; “s/he was a nice normal kid, sweet, caring, giving and no signs of mental disorder or prone to violence.” Well, honey something has flipped the switch and we got way too many clowns thinking the way to solve whatever is bugging them is to shoot, kill and get killed. Where in hell is the sheriff?

So, the snow has melted, only a few flakes left, but the temp ain’t rising very high and the wind, well, it’s whipping about like it has a mission. I don’t even want to look ahead to see what the weather is gonna be like the next few days – why deliberately depressed myself?

Take care and yes, keep smiling!
