Welcome the Ides of March

Four more days until the clocks go ahead...and nine more til the Ides of March.  I didn't know that the Ides of March was the 15th of the month and there is actually an Ides of every month.  Ides just means the middle of the month so some months the Ides is on the 13th.  The Ides of March just sticks in my head as something to be feared...makes me think of evil Leprechauns but I have no idea why...LOL!  Now...putting the history lesson aside I want to welcome the Ides of March because it means longer days and that we are closer to Spring. 

I can't really say my life has changed too much over this winter which is a good thing I suppose since I have such a great life!!  However, I have been getting out quite a bit more than previous years meeting some really great people and having some good times with lots of laughter.  I made a very good friend that I went out with to play some pool...he taught me how to play 9 ball and I asked him if the cone shaped chalk on the wall was a salt lick...didn't want him to think I was uppity...  ..hahaha!  He then introduced me to a pub in St. John called Fish and Brews where we enjoyed a night of great live music, a few beverages and even some dancing...I now believe in miracles!!!  Just a great night overall spent with a really cool guy...fun times!!

Brooke has a new friend that is visiting for awhile.  Also she is enjoying her new job here in St. George.  Billy and Brit are anxiously awaiting the trip to Ontario..still no definite date yet but thinking it might be the end of June at the earliest. 

I guess I have a bit of Spring Fever because I had my living room and dining room painted and am now planning on building a bedroom downstairs so I can regain my privacy.  Hope to have that done by the end of the month if I can nail down a contractor!!

I think that's all the news in my little world.

See you back here in April :)
