I might have set up a search party and gone looking for him, but then I remembered that this year's batch of icicles are desperately trying to kill me. This is why we are currently out of milk, bread, and Corn Flakes. Why risk life and limb over superfluous things like food and sustenance?
Now if I run out of coffee, that's an entirely different story.
Some things are worth dying for.

What! You hadn't put away your Charlie Brown tree yet! I thought I was late!! Did you ever find Charlie? I am no longer allowed to put our artificial tree in the garage attic (my leg broke through the ceiling when I got it down), but was able to find three spots for the three parts of this tree.
ReplyDeleteSpring will come, dear one, and it will be all too short, unless you live in Florida where we have spring weather now. But we do have those sink holes here--none nearby this year.
Sink holes!! Not sink holes!! Glad to know they're not out to get you this year. I feel like they keep creeping closer & closer to my house!
DeleteGreat. You better be coming tonight. Icicles be damned.
ReplyDeleteLike I'd miss out on a Dyson event? Pshaw.
DeleteI am kind of surprised nobody has sent you milk and cereal, at the very least!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteBox Tops are better. ;)
DeleteIcicles are like the killer bees only in the winter.
ReplyDeleteDon't get me started on the bees!!
Deletedid my comment come through? I usually get that message about waiting for it to be approved, but I didn't see it for the comment I left. Probably because I commented it was going to be 79 here tomorrow (but I do feel for you guys, I really do).
ReplyDeleteWatch out under those icicles!
betty
I'm barely talking to you, Betty. 79?? I'll be there in 10.
DeleteCharlie Brown is freezing his manly parts off and you're worried about icicles?
ReplyDeleteYeah, I would be too. Unless I had to run out for wine.
-andi
I don't think Charlie Brown has manly parts. Not that I'm looking.
DeleteThat icicle scares me too! Yikes!!!
ReplyDeleteThat big one is still hanging by a thread. My demise is imminent!
DeleteGreat post, Mar! I commented over there, but thought I'd also give you some love here... This feels like the longest winter ever or at least in a long time, here in Chicago. Hang in there! :)
ReplyDeleteThis winter blows. heh heh. See what I did there? ;)
