Yeah, congratulations to Villanova, they were definitely the better team. Michigan came out and continued how they've been playing but then halfway through the first couldn't make any shots, especially the 3-pointers, and could not get rebounds - looked like a completely different team. Between that and that Donte kid, holy crap. Unfortunate outcome for Michigan but, I have to say, for a team that started 19-7 and was unranked not long ago, making it all the way to the National Championship game says a lot about Michigan.

Thank God temps here are warm enough today. We're suppose to get rain and possible thunderstorms with gusts to 60 mph. Head 200 miles North and Northern Lower's got winter storm warnings and is looking at 12-18" of snow.

Good morning guys, 29 degrees and sunny this morning. We're suppose to get roughly 2" of snow in SE MI tonight... sooo awesome. I got some updates on Northern MI snowfall totals including yesterday's additional snowfall: 14.0" Presque Isle, 14.0" Montmorency, 14.0" Charlevoix, 14.0" Cheboygan, 13.0" Emmet.

Yesterday's Tigers game got postponed, that's already their 2nd or 3rd game that's been postponed due to bad weather.

First car show is this weekend. Hopefully, rain holds off long enough to allow me to go over the car one more time and drive to the venue (20mi.) Supposed to deliver the cars tomorrow between 11am and 7pm. Once I get it parked inside the building, I don't care how much rain/snow we get..... Looking very iffy right now.....

Unhappy Still Sad

What is up with this weather?
Yesterday I finally took my Jacket off while doing some work, it was 56 degrees at one time.
This morning it is snowing again, not much, but snowing maybe it will get to 28 or so and them by Saturday morning up in the teens.

So it has been nearly 4 days since we had to have my last pet put to sleep and I am still broken hearted. I miss the little fellow he used to get me up at 3:20 AM to feed him when the daylite savings came in to effect it was 4:20AM so I got an extra hour of sleep. So anyway I am trying to fight off the guilt and sorrow. I am sharing a photo of Domino one of the few Cats that lived 19 years as an indoor outdoor cat. I think he took to hard of an attack by a strange animal last year we got him nursed back and a big Vet bill but he finally came around. But he was just deteriorating to much to see him suffer again.

Good morning guys. Overcast and 38 degrees now. I just hit 20k miles on the 2013 Malibu yesterday... still breaking it in lol. When we move into the new house I'll be back to racking up miles again - close to 100 a day.

Yeah, sounds like us. We got an inch of snow overnight, just on the grassy areas.
