No more Snow, Please!

I am so tired of snow. Yesterday and last night it snowed here, again. Just when I thought maybe I'd see my lawn it was buried with more snow. And this morning driving to work was an adventure. There was about 5 inches of that nasty white stuff. I was able to follow my husbands tracks down the driveway, slowly. Once at the end of the driveway it was a good thing I didn't have to stop or I could have gotten stuck there. It was also a good thing that a couple of other people had already driven on our road or I would have been plowing more snow with the bottom of my car. It was also a good thing I didn't have to stop at the next two corners or I would have gotten stuck. Even the highway wasn't plowed, at that time. This snow was heavy so it made it easier to get stuck. But I didn't get stuck. About 15 other people didn't make it in this morning. I only have a little over 6 miles to go to get to work. Some people have to come from allot farther then I do. They had long slow rides.
The good thing is that when I got out of work most of the snow on the roads was melted off, but in some spots it was still very slushy and it could almost start to throw your car or truck around. And the road I live on is a dirt road so they kind of plowed it but it was still a very sloppy ride home. I'd wash my car but right now it would not pay. So I'll wait till it's drier on the dirt roads.
There could be a very good possibility that it could get up to almost 50 degrees by the end of the week! YEAH!!!!!
This Saturday my niece is getting married at the family cabin. It should be very interesting.The brides maids will be wearing boots, and I think I will be too. It should be a fun time. I just hope it won't be to cold. I'll have to make sure I have my camera with me so I can get some good candid shots.
I've been trying to ponder some possible pondering possibilities to ponder but my pondering brain will not ponder any possibilities. This is what happens when I get tired of not being able to putter around outside.

The thought of the day:
"Judge me not until you have lived my life."

Jean Viken Cold Case

When I first started this blog one of the first things I wrote about was the murder of a local woman. She disappeared Jan 29th 2008 on one of the coldest days of that month. Her body was found I think in May of that year. She had been shot. Her van was found not long after she went missing up north. She was the mother of 4 young children and was going through a divorce at the time. Well here it is 2 years later and nothing has happened to try and find the person or persons responsible for her death. Why? I'm sure the whoever was responsible was really not that smart. It's as if the no one wants to get to the bottom of what really happened to her. Maybe she was not important enough. Maybe she was not connected to the right people.  I wonder what it would take to get more exposure to this cold case. If there was more pressure from some place else maybe the ones responsible would start to panic and make mistakes to expose the truth. It's time the truth was exposed. Remembe

Jean Viken update and other local things.

This past week Channel 7 has been doing stories on the cold case of Jean Viken.I did see one of them. In it the police said they know who did it but they are waiting for someone to come forward. But no matter what four young children will be without their mother for the rest of their lives because someone decided to end her life out of the meanness of their heart. Here is the story I found on the internet: Jean Viken's friends and family remember her as a loving mother of four young kids, a devoted daughter and sister. But nearly four years after her murder, a dark cloud hangs over Jean's memory, as they continue to search for answers. "We were having a birthday party for her because all of her friends would have wanted to get together like we would have done if she was here," Jane Hempel said. Almost five months after Jane Hempel reported her sister Jean Viken missing, family and friends gathered to celebrate her birthday, hoping to feel some semblance o

Pondering Japan's Earthquake

Image
The earthquake in Japan is just another wake up call for us. It is so far the largest disaster we are dealing with right now. And with all those nuclear power plants having problems there, it will get a whole lot worse.  The earth is talking to us. Telling us the big change is upon us. Instead of fighting wars in other countries we should be preparing our people for this big change that will change our home, planet Earth, in a way that will make life allot more difficult to survive.  Japan had prepared for this kind of event to a point, but this kind of event to this degree is never fool proof.  My heart does go out to all those who are living through this right now.  I will give one prediction for the near future that some might say makes me sound like a crack pot but it is always a possibility.  Here it is: With all the things happening right now natural disasters and political unrest big changes are inevitable. Governments will fall apart, America included. People will have to rel
