I keep my eyes open for them. Only three so far this thaw…but funny that two of them are snowflakes…

Not to mention the matching leash and dog outfit.  If you could see her face you would see the HUGE sunglasses of the same color and what must have been custom dyed lips and nails.  The REALLY frightening thing?  For a moment I could have sworn I had dated “her man”.

On the way home from work today I turned off the radio so that I could listen to the puddles.  The sound of car tires rushing through the water is fantastic. 

Spring seems to be on the way.

Its been a night of spring.  Dinner with family, walking, browsing.  Ice cream and coffee, and talks about the future.  Climbs to see fantastic views and games in the church basement.

Comma has been on the move.  A great night for all of us.

By the time I was done I felt ready for the most elaborate Three Stooges prank ever.
