Old Man Winter
Old man winter came in with a blast.
Oh, how I wish he or she
Were a thing of the past!
Every time I go to open my door -
Snow, sleet, wind, rush in
And they are predicting more!
We crawl under the covers
And hide our heads.
Like Rip Van Winkle, I want
To hibernate and stay in bed.
We can't go to Florida, North Carolina, or to the Coast.
Us Northerner's are suffering
And we aren't warm as toast.
All the kids in the neighborhood
Are as happy as can be.
For, there isn't any school, you see.
They won't like it when June comes along.
With make up days for them,
They'll all be singing a different song.
They may be going to school
Until the fourth of July,
When the fireworks
Are lighting up the sky.
Furnaces running, water pipes
Freezing, and big gas bills, too.
How I wish winter was gone
And all the snow was through.
In February, will be anticipating to see
If the Groundhog comes out of his hole.
If he sees his shadow,
I'll give up and become a mole.
I'm going to bed and wait for
The weather report for tomorrow.
Right now, it's snowing and my heart
Is filled with regret and sorrow.
Old Man winter has my nose.
I'm cold from the top
Of my head, down to my toes.
Another day wasted,
But, I have no regrets.
I have my God,
and my Friends and Family on the net

Good morning !
Over the hump day ! I’m sooooo glad. Even though it’s a 4 day work week it’s going very slow. Except for a visit with my Mom and Dad on Saturday and Church on Sunday , I think I’ll hibernate !
***BIG SMILE***
May your day be blessed with a smile or two and a few rays of Sunshine to warm your heart !

From the Book of Blessings by Helen Steiner Rice
(One of my Christmas Gifts this year)
Blessed little memories
Of little things we’ve done
Make the very darkest day
A bright and happy one
Tender little memories
Of some word or deed
Give us strength and courage
When we are in need
Blessed little memories
Help us bear the cross
And soften all the bitterness
Of failure and of loss
Priceless little memories
Are treasures you can’t buy
An oh how poor the world is
Compared to you and I
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. From the house of the Lord we bless you.
Psalm 118:26
