Aloha Friday 5 February


Seeing how it is Friday, today’s question is going to require as little brain power as possible.

The question for today: Do you have snow where you live? If so, approximately how much?

I am inquiring since I need to enjoy snow vicariously through others. I live in the Midwest and at the time of writing this post, the ground is brown. My area has only had about 6″ this winter, and that was not all at one time. I want snow.

Aloha Friday 22 January


Seeing how it is Friday, today’s question is going to require as little brain power as possible.

The question for today: What is your favourite winter activity?

Mine used to be skiing, unfortunately it is no longer an option. Now I am content with walking and on the few occasions it does snow, spending s much time in the snow s possible.

Snow-Aloha Friday


Seeing how it is Friday, today’s question is going to require as little brain power as possible.

The question for today: Have you received any snow this December? If so, will you play in it for me, please?

We received a dusting, yet that is still snow right? I sadly, do not see much snow and I *love* snow, it makes me giddy and I miss it dreadfully.

The First- Wordful and Wordless Wednesday

I cannot express how happy snow makes me. Unfortunately were we moved to does not see a lot of snow. I was thrilled to wake to this:


The first snow always seems to be the most magical and the best.

Rambling From An Un- Caffeinated Brain

I do realise how late it is, 10:27am to be exact, but dear readers, I chose to sleep awhile longer after my teens left for school. One of my migraine medicines makes me hungry and tired, it offers little pain relief, yet I do eat and sleep well.
So, I am waiting not so patiently for my late morning coffee. So what is on my mind? Let me pick what little is left of my foggy brain this morning.

  • Sheldon seems to be finished with his growth spurt, which means a lot less food and more vegetables. He appears happy and healthy.
  • The boys are finished with the cross country season. My oldest runs daily, the twins do not. Thing 1 is involved in the school Theatre while Thing 2 is interested in the Foreign Language Clubs and Animal Outreach.
  • Why do children cost more with each year? Better yet, why was this fact not mentioned in the parenting books?
  • My oldest will be going on another summer survival camp in the Smokey Mountains this summer. Those trips are not cheap, but oddly he adores them. I say oddly because, except for running, he detests being outside. *shrug*
  • The colours of all the Autumn leaves are breathtaking and I cannot wait to jump in the large piles. I do so enjoy the crunch of the falling leaves.
  • I am eternally grateful to have a husband who loves me and all my numerous flaws.
  • Books, naturally I must mention books! Someone asked why my ratings where fairly high (except one book, and it was not a bad rating nor a bad book, just not for me). The answer is simple, I am picky. I know if it is a romance novel, I probably will not care for it, as was the case with the lowest rating I ever gave (which was not low). It was a well written book and I am certain many other readers will enjoy it.
  • A “gee whiz” fact about me…holidays do not stress me out. We have the lowest key holidays possible and I cannot imagine it any other way. Bring on Thanksgiving and Christmas, I am ready!
  • For those of you with cooler air and snow, please send it my way. I am very, very fond of both.

Thankfully, it is coffee time. May everyone have a beautiful, fun, and happy Thursday!
