Surely.....Surely.....

My blogging has been limited lately. I'll blame it on the winter weather that has kept me inside and my job that has had me working long hours.

The title of this entry will make sense once you watch this video. I know many of you have seen it, but it makes me smile every time I watch it.

Formal Sprockett

I stumbled upon this photo of Sprockett sporting his new tie. Surprisingly, he didn't mind it too much.

Calm After the Storm

The storm was gone almost as soon as it arrived. I doubt if it lasted 10 minutes. Hail, rain and high winds pounded the house. I had just arrived home and was fixing something to eat. The lights flickered so I thought I should find a flashlight. As soon as I found the flashlight, the microwave beeped signaling that my baked potato was done and then everything went dark. Little did I know that we wouldn't have power again for 32 hours. Janay called me the next day at work to let me know our fence was damaged and a large spruce tree was uprooted. The fence is easily repairable. Loosing an old tree stinks :( It could have been worse.

We take electricity for granted. Flip a switch and the light comes on. Turn up the thermostat and get more heat. We are spoiled.....and I'm thankful for it.
