Happy Bowling Birthday
to Sharon!!!
Caroline, Cath and I 
celebrated with Sharon,
loads of fun.
And I bowled lefty,
as I still can't lift with my right arm...

Hank loves to go for a ride 
in the van, so we took a 
little trip to StamV to 
drop off a few things to Michael.

Celebrating CJ's life.
She was a colorful, happy person.
Who loved her garden and cars,
but most of all, her son and girlfriends!
She fought a long, hard, brave battle.

April is approaching and so is 
National Letter Writing Month!!!
Last year I joined an amazing group 
of 100 talented and creative women
and wrote letters, cards and art.
I was assigned a Pen Pal and shared
 mail with many others as well.
Being in this group got my creativity 
flowing in new directions and I 
made some nice friends!  

I made a simple book to keep all of 
last years Happy Mail.
This year I am going to add 
my mail daily and when April
is over, my book will be finished too.

Examples of  the mail I received...

Yup, snow again...

Our beautiful boy!

Hank digs for the buried ice,
he carries it around and chews on it.


 All in a dog's winter day!

Becoming a pattern, snow, sun, snow.
Today was sunny but cold,
some snow is beginning to melt.
Now, snow again tomorrow...

Magic Soup, or at least that is 
what I call it.  Healthy eating 2014!

David and I had a bit of cabin fever,
so we drove to Compo Beach.
Pretty every season.
Always amazed at snow on the beach!

People wonder, what do they do with all of the snow?
The town piles the snow up at the beach parking lot.

Look in the back ground and you can 
see the giant piles of snow!!!

One of my favorite places on earth!

More snow, up early, off to see Benny...

Expecting more snow tomorrow...

But, we did have beautiful blue skies
and sunshine to melt some of the snow!

Nice Valentine's surprise,
Michael joined us for dinner!
All four boys for Valentine's Day,
priceless!!!
He still loves Cookie Monster!

Oh Mom, another snow day!

Heading over to Benny's...

It snowed hard all day!!!
Well over a foot of snow,
I am guessing about 16 inches.
Hank can hardly walk...


I dusted the cars, Al raked the side
and back of the house...

David shoveled the deck and 
raked the front.
Hank helped everyone!
Thank goodness we have
Mark to plow!!!
Expecting up to 8 more
inches tonight!!!

February 12, 2014


The calm before the storm...
Expecting a three-stage storm 
and expecting 12+ inches of snow
tomorrow and tomorrow night.
 
Hank just out exploring.

Snowed again, we are over Winter!

Whipped this up today,
just for fun.

I love the pink and green comb.


So pretty, but praying we don't 
get ice damming!

David and I had a Script in Hand
at Westport Playhouse.
Some of our favorite nights at the Playhouse!
