Strong Wind

January 13, 2009

Hello,

As with much of the Midwest we experienced a strong wind and dropping temperatures last night. I am so grateful for a warm place to be and Leroy to snuggle with in bed. Leroy is so great that he almost always goes to bed first and warms it for me.

I am disgusted. Yesterday when we had lunch I just left the computer on when I had written my letter, but not posted it. Later I came back and found the computer turned off. After turning it back on I could not find my letter.

Leroy explained, "I thought the computer was off and I pushed the button turning it off believing that I was turning it on."

"I am sure I saved my letter," I grumbled, "but I can’t find it."

Serious searching allowed me to find it but only what you see above. The rest of the brilliant piece is gone. Surely, it was brilliant. Guess I did not save as often as I thought I had. I just saved again now, how is that for learning a little bit from experience.

In spite of the cold weather, Leroy did walk to church this morning and I went out and walked this afternoon. As long as I did not go north I felt good, but eventually I had to turn and go north so I zigzagged a bit to break it up.

I balanced the checkbook and I am happy to report that the mistake that was made was accomplished by Leroy. Usually I am the culprit. Glad to have someone else share some of the glory.

Leroy and I made spaghetti tonight and added bean sprouts to the mix. We believe it was quite good and innovative. No same old same old here. Now I will not comment on the pumpkin soup that we made up with not so much success, but we are eating it anyway because a little salt helps.
