You know you are in the south during the winter when....

• the rumor of snow causes schools to close
• there is a shortage of milk and bread at the grocery stores
• roads get salted when the temperature gets below 30 degrees
• people shrill over the site of a snowflake
• getting 'snowed in' consists of a dusting on the ground
• half the kids have never seen snow!
• and... you can never make a dang snowman!!!

First snow (and probably the only one) of the year 1/29/10!

Hello 2010

Hello 2010!!! I think everyone is happy to say,"buh-bye" to 2009 and "hello" to 2010! I was listening to the radio and they mentioned a theory about even and odd years. Basically a person is either in favor (meaning they have good luck) of even years or odd years. It is one or the other!

I started to think about 1) is this true? and 2) which do I favor? I quickly came to realize that it is true and I am totally a fan of even years. I can make a whole list of good things that have happened to me on even years and bad things that have happened to me on odd years (don't worry, I won't list them all for you!) So, now knowing this theory, I am super excited for 2010 and I have faith that it is going to bring some pretty awesome things!!! Happy New Years!
