A haiku and bright flowers to tempt Spring from her frosty bed…..
I am either inspired or procrastinating…. Okay, okay, I know the answer to that one.
Spring lifts sleepy eyes.
Pipes in a battered farmhouse
whisper, “Good morning!”
Or, I have a variation on that.
Spring stirs lazy eyes.
Pipes in a pissed-off farmhouse
spit, “Get your ass up!”
Which one do you prefer?:weather:

On Sunday, I got a flat tire. On Monday, somebody backed into my car in Wal-Mart parking lot. I’m afraid to drive anywhere today. I’m afraid the next thing that will happen is that it will blow up.
The nice thing was, it was a very sweet 16-year-old boy who backed into my car at Wal-Mart. He was so worried! He came inside to the customer service desk to find me with a piece of paper with all his information. He had written his name, then beneath that he wrote “male”–I thought that was cute–and his driver’s license number, address, phone number, date of birth. I’m surprised he didn’t put down his social security number. I told him he was a good boy and that I was very proud of him for doing the right thing. I don’t think he did much damage, though it was dark so I couldn’t really tell. I haven’t even gone out to look today. I don’t want to get blown up….
On the upside, it’s a beautiful day with hints of spring in the air. A day for a dog to romp in the now snow-free yard! I’m ready for spring!!!!! You?

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....
