Well, due to the state of the economy I am having to close my store. I just didn't have enough time to build up before the economy went down hill. So, in addtion to looking for a job I am making preparations to close the door. The last day of operations is May 22 and I must have everthing out of the building my May 31.

I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason!

Sorry to those who have already read this through other postings.

I just was informed this morning that an area caller, John Steckman, passed away while out in Arizona. He was one of our staff callers during TAQC last summer. It comes as quite a shock and is such a loss for the challenge community in our local area.

Personally, it was even more shocking and saddening. Stuff like this makes for a very bad morning. If there is a bright side to missing convention, it would be that now I can go to the service on Saturday.

Thanks for letting me vent.

It has been so nice here the last couple days. It even got in the 60s yesterday, I do believe. Last night was quite balmy. Is spring on its way or is Mother Nature trying to get us to put our guard down so WHAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I just had to make a decision that was unavoidable. Due to financial constraints, I won't be able to make it to convention this year. I was so looking forward to finally getting to dance and getting my medallion, but that will have to be on hold until Chicago.

I hope you have many more.

The slow down of life after the holidays has finally arrived. Kenny and I were home to cook dinner every night this week except Friday (I bowl). We got to watch the LWord Season Five Disc 1. We have no plans this weekend or next.

Someone pinch me.

WINTER Poem
It's winter in Ohio
And the gentle breezes blow
Seventy miles an hour
At twenty-five below.

Oh, how I love Ohio
When the snow's up to your gut
You take a breath of winter
And your nose gets frozen shut.

Yes, the weather here is wonderful
So I guess I'll hang around
I could never leave Ohio
I'm frozen to the ground!
