Granddaughter Dano just celebrated her 28th birthday. Happy Birthday Dano. She was born the same year we moved to Appleton, 1985.
As if I needed to be reminded of how old I am, your Mom and I just got invited to our 55th High School reunion in August. It seems like we just graduated.
I think somebody angered the “weather gods”. We’ve gone from very cold to snow, sleet, and sh– followed by record warm today. Snow tomorrow. Are we having fun yet.
This week we have to endure all the Super Bowl bullsh–. There is the “brother coaches angle” along with Ray Lewis playing the diva role as he plays his last game. Las Vegas is taking bets on everthing from “will Beyonce lip sync the National Anthem” to what color gatorade will get dumped on the winning coach.
Today I begin the annual “tax ritual”. I’ve got my new turboTax software coupled with several drawers of 2012 receipts. It is amazing how many medical receipts get accumulated during the course of a year and we are not considered sickly. My goal is to be notified someday that a medical expense actually went down.
So here is my “glass-half full” closure. We are almost at the end of January which is technically the coldest month of the year. The days are getting longer. I even hear some baseball “hot-stove” babble. Can Spring be far behind.
Stay warm.
Love,
Dad
