Good things do happen

Ever since I was notified that I was to be a juror, I have become somewhat weary with the job I had to do. The summons came for me to serve for a two day trial March 1 and 2. With the weather we have been having and the weather that is predicted for tomorrow and Friday, I have been thinking and praying that something will happen that I do not have to go. Well, my prayers were answered. When I called today to see if I HAD to drive to Portage, I was told that the case was resolved!!! You can be sure I was certainly relieved. Now I can participate in the World Day of Prayer, as scheduled for Friday, without having a stand-in. Maybe I was worried needlessly, but I will still have to serve through March, when notified two weeks in advance, on a jury. C'est la vie.
Bowling was just average for me on Tuesday, but the team lost all points, so we will probably be about in the middle of the twelve teams when the standings are posted this Saturday. Guess you can't win 'em all, can you? We do have fun trying, though.

More Up than down

Last week's bowling was a real downer. Tonight, I thought I really remembered what I was doing. We lost all points last week but won all points this week. Since we were tied with two other teams for first place, I knew we would stay there after tonight. Believe it or not, I bowled a neato 577, with games of 214, 177, and 186. If I had done some math earlier, I could have seen what I needed to break the 600 barrier again. Oh well, we still have a couple months left to bowl.

Stayed home from work yesterday and today because I was sneezing and blowing so much. My nose has finally dried up and I stopped sneezing. Will plan on making up the time at work on Thursday and Friday mornings. The BOSS okayed it.

Getting late. To bed.

Ups and Downs

I wish I could be more consistent when I bowl. Tuesday night was not my best effort. The team lost all the points, too. What a bummer!!!

Cold weather has arrived for certain. They are predicting very low (below zero) temps starting Saturday. Good week to stay inside and throw another log on the fire. (Or sip the brandy!)

Tomorrow the F & M Bank is having an open house to show off their new addition. From what I can see as I enter the place, it is very, very nice. They will have a welcoming at 1 PM and light refreshments will be served. Since I was unable to attend the stockholders dinner (bowling that night) and the tours they gave afterwards, I plan to go around 12:30 (Get that, Peg)and see all I can see.

Sunday is the Super Bowl. I plan to make chili and have snacks available all day. Nana used to like to come over and watch with us and we usually had chili, so we could eat in the living room. Since I listen to WGN all the time, I will be rooting for DA BEARS, the underdogs.

Today word was received that Brett Favre will return to the Packers next season. I think if he throws 5 more TD passes, he will break a record. Sixteen seasons has got to be some sort of record, also.

Getting late. Nighty-night.
