the a.c.........

ok, so it truly pained me to turn on the air conditioner on my way home from work despite the stuffy heat inside the honda......because to do so in february seemed like yet another sign of the end of days, with surefire global warming at our heels..........we have had so many of late....like the ohio state buckeyes ranked number 12 and in contention to win the big ten, while the u of k wildcats cannot buy themsleves out of the basement of the s.e.c.......certainly a sign that all is off kilter with the universe......all things seems bleak this particular weekend....the annual visitation of the birth mother......who will perform disneyland mom tricks for 4 days, then drive away for the rest of us to bring our daughter back into the real world.....every time this visit comes around the hints are there...for us to host the visit.....given all the empty bedrooms.....i am grateful that my spouse has as many or more reservations about such an offer......and thus the visit will revolve in/out of mimi's house down the road.......i always fix one big home cooked dinner for us all to share......there will be less of us this year, with one out of state and the other out of town and otherwise unavailable.......and so the task left to do is to schedule this event.......friday night?.....saturday evening....sunday after church?.......classic avoidance behavior keeps me from making a plan.......at least the weather will be nice...............
