\wow - that was surely a big finish for the SuperBowl game!! talk about coming from behind. I'm not football fan really - but that last bit was worth watching!
 
Keep you'r ae on meis Seeler ... now that things are clearer ... thus the mocking bird factor ... as we mimic the devil in satire ...

We drive a young man to church. He has been legally blind since birth - enough vision to see with a lighted magnified glass and large print bulletin, and to get around town by bus, but not much else. He has a couple of university degrees and works for the CNIB. Compared to him, my problems are not significant.

Yeah, I curse my crappy vision all the time but I've known a few visually impaired folks so that always puts things into perspective. Glad to hear the laser surgery helped. I'm too phobic about people poking around my eyes to do it but Little M has said that once he's old enough, he'll get it done. Though his vision isn't bad to start with; he really only needs glasses for driving, watching TV, and other things requiring fairly long range. Whereas my vision starts to blur about six inches from my face if I take my glasses off.

I did something new yesterday: sold a car (well, I sold one other but that was to family so a bit of different situation). We are replacing our 11 year-old Honda CR-V with the 2017 model and the trade-in the dealer was offered sucked compared to what I was seeing on Auto Trader so we listed it ourselves and the first person to test it, bought it. It was an older guy helping his niece buy her first car. Seems like a nice family so I hope we've found a good home for it. Meanwhile, our new one was supposed to come off the line on Friday per our dealer so we should have it by the last week of the month (Honda assembles them in Alliston, Ontario where my Civic was also built so it doesn't have far to come).
 
The bf and I are avid New England Patriots fans so I am sneaking in for some rest and relaxation after the doozy of a game last night. I have put some coffee on and I made apple spice muffs this weekend if anyone wants to share.

Is this akin to the golden or well roasted beef? Rye to the wind to make a statement against the powers ... as in Agatha 've God ... the MOG thingy that is denied by the pariah of patriarchy!

The MOG may invade as a minor key ... a weal, or Wahl ... flayed? Do the superiorly whipped forget ...? Thyme could come around as and ending spirit ontologically inseparable from rheological! Creeping dirt ...
 
Glad to hear positive news about the vision, Seeler.

We're supposed to have some wyrd snow then ice storm here starting tonight and moving into a freezing rain warning tomorrow. Might be an interesting day.
 
I am in Milwaukee tonight, had a lovely dinner with my sister & people that work at the same company as I used to work at. Was nice.
Now settling into to catch up on volunteer work.

It is so mild here that I didn't wear a coat at lunch.
so strange for mid-february.

tomorrow is an early morning, but, for now, I feel content.
 
Bitter cold in NB today; -19 here, and snow predicted by evening. We're driving two hours out of town for a funeral so it's good if the snow holds off. What to wear? Black slacks, hiking-style boots, a pretty blouse and my warm wool coat. I hope there is somewhere to hang it. I'm tryin to remember if that church has a cloak room - it's a fairly modern church.

We will pay our respects to someone from Seelerman's home village; someone Seelerman went to school with and has known all his life but who we seldom see except at reunions or funerals, or happen to run into. But still, someone from 'home'. Seelerman has lost all six of his brothers - five to death, and one to senility. And he is losing the friends from his past. I still have my two sisters and the three girls I grew up with live within an hour's drive.
 
Cooler here than usual and we have a fair bit of snow-nothing like the coast though who have shut schools for the day. They don't have the plows needed for quick snow clearing as there recent amounts were not seen for years,
My sister and her partner were in BC from Ont and were to drive from greater Vancouver Sat and back there Mon. They were leery about the snow and their rental car so they came and left on Greyhound.

Ties were rated ok for snow-you know the # or snowflake but neither gal is used to driving in the mountains and Surrey-basically subdivision of Vancouver actually had no school buses running today. Snow near Greater Vancouver is deep. The bus really was the best option.
