Yesterday, as I typed away at my work desk, I heard the weather sirens going off. I was taken by surprise. I looked out the window and didn't see any tornadoes or storm clouds. Just a normal cloudy day. What the heck? In Wisconsin, it may have been a spring storm approaching from a direction… Continue reading Keeping an eye on the storm

Odd Ball Sunday – Our pets rock and rule

Dessy (Determined, Eccentric, Suspicious, Silly, Yearning) Tizzie (Teasing, Introverted, Zzzzcatcher, Zzzstander, Impeccable, Elegant) Copper (Cuddly, Optimistic, Prepared, Particular, Enthusiastic, Ready) It's pretty… Continue reading Odd Ball Sunday – Our pets rock and rule
