My first, second, third, etc. attempt

Okay, I've been tempted to create a blog for a couple of months now. Since my friend, Wanda, just created one of her own, I decided "if she can do it, I can do it." However, with my minimal internet skills, it has taken me all of six attempts and 2 1/2 hours to get this far. It actually took me about 30 minutes just to come up with a name and url (whatever that is) for my blog. Hopefully, some of you will look at it occasionally so this isn't all in vain.

I hope to keep you all up to date with my comings and goings in the next few months. My last two years at Holden have been an adventure. There is so much to tell about my time here, but many of you have heard so much about it up until now that I am going to start with the present.

We still have about 5 feet of snow on the ground, but it is beginning to melt fast now. It has still been freezing most nights, but gets up in the 50's during the day. The mavericks have dug down to our sidewalks now so it's like walking through a canyon. The snow is almost shoulder level on me, and over the heads of the children. However the snow on the road is almost melted and has turned to mud, a real sign of spring!! Oh yeah, the robins are also in residence, another sign of spring!

As I said I hope you will keep checking back on my blog. I haven't been doing too well with letter writing lately and this way I can keep in touch with everyone at once. Besides, it's fun!!!

Hey, girl, good job!

You and Wanda are real geeks.

Five feet of snow - can you and Patty see out of your windows yet???

I am in McAlester OK; leaving tomorrow for a 2-day drive to Boone NC to visit with Sue and Dan Lindgren (remember them?); Wanda will cross my path there too so the four of us will surely do some porch-sitting and story-telling.
