We got a bit of snow of Friday, enough that Mom stopped by the grocery store before coming home to pick up a few things just in case we couldn't get out until Sunday. We ended up getting out on Saturday anyway, but I am still glad that she did buy some food.

The past two days have been warm enough that the snow and ice we have gotten recently has pretty much melted away. It is supposed to continue with this spring like weather well into next week. But I wouldn't be surprised if in March we have some more cool weather and maybe even a little more winter. It's been done before, so we will see.

Mom is thinking of taking Monday off so we can get caught up on a few things we've been unable to due to weather and what not. Think it would be a good idea.

A friend of mine, a guy I have known since we were freshman in high school, came over and told me a sad story. He was in the process of leaving his wife and he was being peaceable about it too. When he got back to the U-Haul rental place, his wife was waiting for him. He got in her car and they talked and agreed to finish talking at home, so he got out of her car got into his own and followed her home. Once at home they talked and argued and he decided to leave. As he was leaving, he walked past her and she stabbed him in the back with a chefs knife. He managed to get it out, but before he could leave she came at him again, he did manage to finally leave and open the locked front door (which they never locked when they were home) and made his escape. A neighbor called 911 and he went to the hospital, where one of his lungs collapsed. He was in the hospital for several days and got out on his birthday. Of course his loony wife is saying it was self defense and even cut herself to try and prove it. Well he is looking to get a divorce from her and take care of a few things. In the coming months he will be doing a lot of things and hopes ( as do I) that his wife serves some jail time.
