Racine Surf Forecast:  Just Don't

Super Bowl Sunday

I'm in it for the commercials and the snacks.

Living lawn ornaments

This is how we roll in Florida. Ibis march across our ponds and lawns feeding upon the insect life. They are fearless.

Feeling like a mouse in a maze

Seems like I’m too busy these days.

Weekends are for fun stuff.

Hope you are enjoying some warmer weather. We are back in the upper 70s tomorrow. Been a bit nippy here.

Pretty, but Deceptive

Just a pretty picture from Google that I found of winter. It can be so beautiful, if only it wasn't so cold, treacherous, and too much heavy lifting. The sun is shining in Racine, and the temperature has reached 40 degrees. There is still snow on the grass, but they say we might actually get some rain. I'm ready for Spring, but I'm sure we aren't done here, yet.

Have a great Friday

Have a great weekend.

Sable parties hard

Wish I could get a copy of a video a friend took of her opening presents. She was relentless. I thought I was nuts, but this gang of people sang Happy Birthday and Sable responded by howling right along. (Sigh), there is no hope for me.

The Things People do for their Pets!

Sable is turning ten next week. Just to prove we are crazy, we are having a birthday party on Sunday. I ordered these napkins along with matching paper plates for the big day.

Cold Snap Continues

The deep freeze continues. Kenosha had a power outage for several hours last night. They eventually opened up a couple of warming shelters. We are currently at -2 out there. Feels frigid!

Favorite Things and Stuff to Talk About

1. Favorite candy?

2. Share a memory or fun moment of this holiday season?

7. Plans for New Year's Eve?

Sable loves presents

Yep, she opens her own!

Christmas Eve, 2017

Merry Christmas to my friends, and a Happy Festivus to those who find this time of year difficult.  

This is our second holiday season at The Real Clubhouse, but we've been together much longer. We've celebrated our joys and supported 

each other through difficult times. I love and appreciate you all.... 

Santa Claus is Coming to Town

Several years ago, I used this website and let my students print off their names for a Christmas bulletin board. Even though they were beyond the Santa years, they still had a ball reading each others naughty or nice evaluation.  If you need to know, you can check your rating, here...
