okay, okay - missing in action again!

Well, here I am again after another lengthy hiatus from blogdom! Since my last post in JANUARY, not a whole heck of a lot has changed, other than the weather.

At the end of February I discovered Facebook, at the prompting of my daughter. Much to my surprise, the old people seem to be taking over Facebook! I was under the impression that it was just for the young folks, but my daughter assured me there were old people on it, too (-:

My 30 year high school reunion is this summer, so I've rediscovered many, many old friends and we also have a Facebook site dedicated to our reunion. I've been to several planning meetings and have also had a few pre-reunion reunions with girlfriends. It's funny to me that when you first see how your friends have changed you're taking note of all the changes. After hanging out for a weekend of fun and trips down memory lane they all look just like they did in high school.

We've had an absolutely fabulous spring this year, and it was just last week that I finally had to turn on the AC for the first time of the season. The grass is all green (and the weeds, still battling the weeds), the birds are singing all the time and building nests. They're going through the bird seed at a pretty steady clip.

The lillies I planted last year are coming up, and the amaryllis has already bloomed and is just gorgeous. I would love to be surrounded by flowers, 24-7, so I'm planting new things every year and seeing how they fare through the winter.



I can see out my window (door) that the moon is full...maybe I should go howl at it for good measure. I wonder what sort of craziness is going on in the world tonight because of that full moon....

I will make another attempt at getting back to my blogging...no promises...but I will try harder!

Love and hugs to all the moms out there for Mother's Day tomorrow!
