Tuesday, March 17, 2026 The doorbell rang about 9:00 tonight. That was different. Keith checked the door camera (obviously) and said, “It’s Louise,” before I could get to the door. There she was! “It’s St. Patrick’s Day and I made you green fluff.” Wow! How special is that? She said she googled green fluff and

Monday, March 16, 2026 I saw a Kickstarter for an end table that makes pictures automatically with a marble in sand. I thought Keith would like it. I told Benjamin to order it for me so it would be super-secret. Delivery time was a mystery, but hopefully it would come for Christmas. It didn’t. They

Sunday, March 15, 2026 They have been forecasting snowmaggedon all week. We were supposed to get 1-2 feet of snow. Big winds. Don’t go outside. It was supposed to start at 5pm yesterday and last until 4am Monday. It started. It stopped. It started. It stopped. The wind blew, then it didn’t. Some places got

Saturday, March 14, 2026 We had amazing sandwiches from Alleycat’s Gourmet Sandwiches in White Bear Lake before seeing the Lakeshore Players’ Oscar Wilde play this afternoon. Neither of us had ever seen it before, although it is very famous. The first act is short and really just a lot of exposition – it does make

Friday, March 13, 2026 Our whole family woke up at Benjin’s house – which is good because that is where we all went to sleep. It was winding to beat the band. Garbage cans were everywhere in the street. Big day of wind before BIG snow is coming Sunday. We were all snug as bugs.

Thursday, March 12, 2026 We left Nancy’s and headed to Benjamin’s about 4:30. Bye, Nancy! We had a great laughing visit. We sat on the couch with Benjamin and visited for about an hour. The couch makes you face the front door with its frosted pane. I saw a shadow approaching and announced that someone

Wednesday, March 11, 2026 “It won’t turn off!”“What won’t turn off?”“The bathroom fan.“That’s okay. We have a man for that.” (But he was gone picking up Donna)“But it smells like burning. It’s smoking!!”Ohhhh. “Turn off the power part thing in the basement.” (I am excellent with specifics)“I don’t know where it is, which one it

Tuesday, March 10, 2026 I came up this morning and Keith was all set up for work! It was like olden days! He is talking with former coworkers about a temporary/contract/full-time/part-time/? job, so I actually thought he was doing work about maybe doing work. He was arranging a song for brass band. 🙂 I went

Monday, March 9, 2026 We were home a whole day, so we felt it was time to hit the road. We drove to Waukesha. We arrived and the sisters were sitting in the glorious sun on the 70-degree day. We stayed out until the sun went down, then sat at the kitchen table and LAUGHED

Sunday, March 8, 2026 The boy sitting in front of me at the show tonight had big hair. The show was really good. The cast was full of powerhouse singers. The animal puppets were awesome. The sets were minimal yet brought me to a different place. The circus performers were GREAT! I really appreciated being
