Full Moon yesterday. Boogedy, boogedy!
I was out in the cold yesterday in my German made car. It was 10 degrees below zero. Suddenly my display screen on the dash board started flashing all kinds of colors and warning signals. Whoa! My right rear tire was low on air (it reminded me of Lost in Space TV where the computer utters “danger Will Robinson, danger). I’ve been through this drill before where cold weather drops tire pressure. So I pumped up the tire. Problem solved. Wrong. The car computer doesn’t reset automatically and there is a 7 step procedure that you have to go through. Really? I thought computers were to make things simpler.
Your Mom is true to her word. While you Grasshoppers and Grandchildren were growing up, I would play basketball contests with you. I was pretty good at shooting a basketball so I always won. I mean always. Your Mom would take me to task for “not letting you kids win”. Her point was that it would build your self-esteem and it would encourage you to try harder. Now with her new iPad, she has been playing Words (Scrabble equivalent) with multiple kids simultaneously (I don’t know if you can lump her favorite Son-in-Law in as kid). Over the last week, your Mom has lost intentionally every single contest so that you all have good feelings about yourself. I bet you are all feeling great about whipping your Mom’s butt.
Grandson Dominic has been accepted into a Youth Volunteer Police Department program. I have to admit he looks impressive in a baby blue shirt decorated with sewn on ID badges. Sounds like a great program.
Green Bay Packers. Lambeau. Noon. Sunday. Very Low temperatures and dangerous wind chill. It is not football when your tongue sticks to the goal post!
Love,
