Things are actually warmer than they are in the states which is unusual.
We’ve been getting the remnants of what the East Coast has been getting...but nothing is sticking.
Kids are good...getting ready for one to graduate in June.
Enjoying a bit of a break from sports right now which had kept us busy.
How’s things on your end?

OMG! Graduating!
Busy, busy, busy on my end. Still working full-time and taking care of my Mom. She still gets around with a walker, but I am chief cook and bottle washer. LOL! She just turned 90 earlier in the month. So far she won’t let me bring someone in, even one day a week. *sigh*
