My lazy ass weekend

Yes, that's right, I did absolutely nothing worth while this past weekend!
No house work, no yard work,(too damn cold) nothing! I just sat and played my computer game, 1701 A.D. (like way too many hours) This late winter like weather has just got me in a funk! I'm soooo over it! We cancelled our first mo-ho trip, which makes the season even shorter!
Okay, take a deep breath,..... yes,....that's better.
I'll be okay, as soon as the weather cooperates.
But it does seem like life is whizzing by and it seems like I keep waiting for the next chapter.
And I'm not getting any younger!
So on that note, Here is the Cat in The Hat on Aging..........
I found it to be quite fun!
And of course, I stole it from another blog!

Happy Easter

As you can see from the map here, Spring has retreated and winter has returned. And the long range forecast is for below normal temps for the next 2 weeks. After enjoying the last 2 weekends out side, I'm back indoors.

What ever happened to

global warming?

Even the pond I cleaned last weekend has frozen over.

So I'll cozy up in front of my computer this weekend, play my games, and read my favorite blogs, while Craig fixes our Easter dinner. Ham, scalloped potatoes, and a mixture of veggies,(broccoli, sugar snap peas, carrots, and water chestnuts) topped with a cheese sauce.

On a more positive note.......in college Hockey......

Our MSU Spartans won the

National Championship!

Go State!

Spring....Yea Right

Here in mid Michigan, we never seem to get a break. My last 2 weekend posts raved about the great weather we've had. Well, this week we're gonna pay for it. Where the last 2 weekends were about 20 degrees above normal, this week will be the opposite. I knew we'd have to pay for that nice weather sometime.

We really don't get any bonus weather here!

It always averages out.
Okay, enough of this, I'm off to work!

Oh, and my TDS e-mail is still screwed up. I did open a Gmail account, and have been moving everything over to that including this Blog. So if any of my readers have my TDS e-mail saved, please switch to my new Gmail one. I think I like the Gmail better!

Another good weekend!

We had another nice weekend! Temperatures in the 60's!
I took advantage of this and cleaned the pond. We clean the pond about every 3 years. Yes, once you put in a pond, there is maintenance! The first year I scooped out about 100 dead bloated frogs! It's only about 18 inches deep, so the frogs can't bury them selves in mud. And we have no fish. Which is good since a Great Blue Heron found the pond a few years back and now keeps it fairly frog free. Today, I just had to scoop out a lot of debris and pond scum. Divide and re-pot pond plants and refill the pond with water. For the complete set of pond cleaning pics, cleaning pond .
Oh.......And I still cannot get my e-mails!

This sucks

I'm not getting my e-mails!

This started just over a week ago. TDS, my Internet provider, "upgraded" their stuff.

Since then, my main e-mail account has been screwed up. I've made 3 calls to tech support, and they're "working on some issues".

It actually got somewhat better, in that I'd get some e-mails each day but some were"hidden".

Yesterday, I couldn't even get into my account!

So if anyone has sent me an e-mail, and I haven't responded, It's because I either haven't got it, Or I have it and it's "hidden". Hopefully TDS will get things straightened out soon!
