So last night I have to be at church by 8 for orchestra practice, as our ensemble will be playing this Sunday. Rhonda was still in the choir till 9, so I had to leave John in the nursery. When I went to leave though, he just started crying, wanted me to pick him up, didn't want me to go. Boy, don't know where that came from. He hasn't done that before. Usually it's zing and he's off.

I think I'll try the Modified Atkins Diet. What's that, you ask? Well, in addition to having all the meat, eggs, cheese and other protein I want, I can also have all the bread, sugar and carbohydrates I want.

You do all check out the astronomy picture of the day, don't you?

The weatherman says this about our weather here in Minnesota over the past year... Lovely...

June through October last year: Wettest in 111 years of modern records, with 29.89 inches, more than 12 inches above normal.

November through January: Driest in modern history, with about four-tenths of 1 inch, 10 percent of the normal 3.98 inches.
