Winter Snow
I heard this past weekend that the Detroit area has received a bit over 42" of snow so far this season. The average for the entire winter season is 44", so we're close and still in the middle of January.
On a positive note, the water levels of the Great Lakes have been rising the past couple of years and this year's snowfall is bound to help keep them rising. When I think of the snow in this aspect it doesn't seem quite so bad.
Another indicator of snowfall is the amount of gas I put in the snow blower. I make a new gallon in the late fall; most years I have plenty left over to use in the string trimmer. This January the gas can is now empty, with the last drop in the snow blower. I think I'm going to have to mix up a new batch before the spring thaw!

Musical Youth International (MYI) Update
I'm not sure if I've mentioned on this blog that a group was started on Facebook for the alums of MYI. When I found the group there were three of us, but now I'm thrilled to say that we're up to 25 people. Everyone is beginning to go through pictures and stories and are sharing them online. Hopefully by putting the word out there into cyberspace more alums will find it and hopefully join and contribute as well.
Even worser!
Yes, I know..."worser" is NOT a word.
Well I spent a good portion of New Year's Eve day coming down with diverticulitis, and by New Year's Day was pretty much a basket case, or perhaps toilet bowl case would be more accurate. I didn't really start to improve until Friday afternoon, and I'm still having a touchy stomach so I need to be somewhat careful with what I stick in my mouth.
We did go to a Mustard's Retreat performance in Canton over the weekend. A small but appreciative crowd, and fantastic music as always by David and Michael. They'll be performing at The Ark on January 16th, so we're planning on being there. I believe it is a CD release concert for the Yellow Room Gang, so lots of great music and performers!
