Good Friday Remembered

I can remember when my kids were little we would all go to the Jaycee hall for their annual easter egg hunt. I remember one year Jessica was little and she hadn't found the prize egg. She was little and cute with big brownish green eyes. She stood looking at the prize table at the end of the hunt looking at the giant chocolate bunnies and stuffed rabbits. One of the older "Jaycee's" took pity on her and gave her a stuffed bunny. It was a good Friday to remember.

St Paddy's day

Today is both happy and bitter sweet for me.
My dad was as Irish as they come with just a wee bit of cajun french in him to make it interesting.

St. Patricks day around our house growing up as a kid was so special. My dad would wake us up that morning with bagpipe music blaring from his stereo on a long playing album of various tunes. it always reminded me of sour grapes. We would say "Top o' the morning" daddy.

My mom and dad would go out for lunch on that day, my mom had a special outfit just for the occasion. A green suit, Channel inspired, with a lining of white fabric with shamrocks all over it and a matching blouse made out of the same fabric. My mom was so slim she looked like a model. Even after 7 kids she kept her girlish figure.

They always talked about going to Ireland, my dad actually made it a couple of years ago after momma died. i asked him if he looked up any of our "kin" over there, he said" You couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting a Donovan". I am very proud of my Irish heritage, we grew up hearing tales about the "Little People" meaning Leprchans and the Banshee's. There was movie out a couple of years ago called Darby o'Gill and the Little People. It scared me half to death, but it made a believer out of me. Someday i would like to go to the Emrald Isle.

my thoughts on Minnesota drivers

why is it when it starts to snow(and these people) have lived here all of their lives, do they drive 20 miles an hour when the first snowflake hits the windshield? very curious.

snowplows....coming to a neighborhood near you!

let it sneaux, let it sneaux, let it sneaux!

i am trying to get out of here. it is snowing and that means i will have a terrible drive home. i don't know why they call it Minnesota nice because they sure aren't when they get behind the wheel of a car. no one ever taught these yankee's how to merge either. oh well thats all for now.

this is my first blog

This is fun.

I hope somebody reads this.
