Looking Forward

Image
 I am having a hard time waiting for Spring even though I am sure it must be near!  I miss my garden! I already ordered a bunch of seeds in anticipation! Also, I had so many good ideas for craft projects over the cold months that I want to try, but since I like doing my projects outside I am waiting a bit!  It is good to have something to look forward to! 

Good and Bad

 When I was in grade school I became friends with a girl who lived a couple blocks away. She lived in a low income apartment, but I didn't know that at the time. She was super nice and sweet and for a couple months we had fun playing together. Then she moved, which I think was one of many times for her.  Years later, when I was around 24  I had one of my first manager jobs and she ended up being one of my employees, along with her husband. She was still super nice and sweet. However, although I have no real proof I believe her husband was abusive and likely an addict of some sort. At the time they had at least 3 children, all under 5 years. The reason I believe her husband was abusive is because if he was around she was always quiet or seemed afraid to speak because she might upset him. When he wasn't around she was the same girl I had known.  At some point $10 went missing from my purse. I knew it was her or her husband, they were the only people back there alone where it was.

 Wow! I haven't posted here in a long while. I am sharing a computer with Brit and he has been writing so that leaves me with my phone which would take me forever to type out a post on.  Except for a big snow storm a couple days ago winter has been pretty uneventful here. Oh yeah, we had COVID for Christmas! I had a super mild case, but Brit had it bad! We have both recovered now.  Mostly looking forward to Spring when I can start gardening again! I really have missed having something to do outside these past months. Luckily, most of the winter was warm enough that I could have my coffee outside in the late morning.  I shall try to return soon with some sort of real post! 😀
