I got an email from Rita yesterday that just about blew my mind, I really had to think back to when we lived in Minnesota.  She attached pictures of their yard on the 22nd of March and there was snow all over everything, not a little snow, a lot of snow.  The pine tree in the yard was weighed down with snow and the fence line was about half covered with snow.  Uck!  It was beautiful as long as it wasn't in our area!  It was bad enough to have snow fall yesterday even though it didn't stick, it was still snowing!

The trip in to town today was uneventful, good roads and quick trip so that was nice.

Cyn called tonight to tell me that I was right about the cost of groceries.  I had called her the other day and said that my trip to the grocery store was sure more expensive then it usually is, that the cost of groceries had really gone up.  She went today and was shocked with the increases.  So was I.  I can't imagine the difference it must make in Bobbi's family budget, shoot!  And the news blames it all on the fact that Iowa produces ethanol from corn.  It might impact some things but I doubt it makes enough of the difference to impact the cost that much.  It's crazy.

The news said that there was an increase in house sales this month so maybe it will turn around.  We can hope.

Tomorrow is supposed to be warmer, we can hope.  This is crazy!
