** D's **

when i was a kid the letter D was found on my report card
typically in the subject of math...

then later in my late teens & 20's the D returned
as in the word Diet...
ugh
if you think about it a lot of awful words start with D
Devil Dentist Deviant Dumb any word with 'Dis' in front ..
as in Dishonest or Discouraging

now the last year & a half it is looming over me ...
the Dreaded letter D
Death of Dad
Death of his Daughter my sister
Divorce
Depressed
Discouraged
Daughting

ishy huh??...

so i decided D will now bring joy...
good things....
it's positive letter
Determined
Destined ( for greatness :) )
Donuts
Ding Dongs
Daffodil
Dogs
Ducklings
Disco
Discovery
Daisies
good things
:)

*** muddy paws ***

so it rained all day today ..
even heard thunder at times..
very weird...
we still have some...
not much ..
but some snow...
the weather has been warm..
40 degrees ..
so wet.. muddy.. melty ..
gray.. yucky..
don't make me get outta bed days!
but i have learned a few things from
this day of rain
&
the warm days before it ..

1)i swear next year i will rake the leaves
before winter ...
now i know what happens if i don't & i don't advice skipping a year!!

2)pick up dog poo in the winter ..
even if it gets buried by the snow!!
&

3)will remember to turn on the heating on the roof..
beautiful icicles
but what a nasty ice dam!!

all things i am learning being back in minnesota
&
controlling my own destiny!!
scary at times
but
this i can do right?!
