Yet more snow is coming

I am so done with winter.  From the sounds of it, it will be eastern CT and LI that will get nearly 3 inches of snow and here in the west, not so much.  But still, I'm sick of it.  I want to see crocus and daffodils and tulips.

I spent the weekend expanding my already wide butt by sitting in the chair and crocheting my way through several projects.  I took a break on Saturday evening and went out to dinner with Mom and Gretchen at Sakura's in Westport.  The only exercise I got all weekend.  The restaurant was wall-to-wall kids.  For the most part the kids were quiet and well behaved but I can't help but wonder at parents who take a half-dozen or more (one table had 10 boys) to a place where the meals start at $25 - the tab for the table of 12 had to be $400 before tip.

As I said to Mom and Gretchen, watching several dozen pre-teen and teen kids... I'm very grateful I never had children.  I love my brothers' kids and they have brought me nothing but joy for over 20 years... but they go home and that's the way I like it.
