Well, the good news is my laptop didn’t get stolen. Right, I should probably start at the beginning.
Upon stepping out my front door this morning with my papers I was pleasantly surprised. Not only has it warmed up a few degrees, the sun was coming out and … YAY! so are the flowers at the front of my house. I went back inside to get my sunglasses and my camera and, newspaper bag over my shoulder, set my glasses down absentmindedly to take a few shots of the new spring blossoms.
So, both satisfied and happy with myself I stood up and reached into my pocket to find my sunglasses. Not there. Feeling a little sick I looked around my feet. Noth…. what’s that under my foot? Oh look!
So, cussing along my way, I finished off my paper route, but not without stopping by one of my customers – a dry cleaning business where the TV is always on – to find out that we’re to expect 15cm of snow Thursday and another 10cm on Friday. That’s a total accumulation of 10″ for my friends who haven’t caught up to the rest of the planet. You know who you are 😉
And then, to top it all off, I arrived home, put the key in the keyhole and…. locked the door. In my giddy glee I forgot to lock the house up.
The good news is… yeah. I have something to blog with.

I only deliver 16 papers daily. They weigh under 3lbs – less than my purse!

Yep, that’s pretty much all I do it for. It forces me to walk around the block 5 days a week 🙂

That moment you discover a blooming crocus has broken ground — intoxicating! I always planted mine randomly to insure surprise! .

Excellent idea. Mine really were a surprise to me a few years back. I moved into the house during winter. 🙂

Yeah… I woke up to snow this morning. I was sad (and cold). Glad your laptop didn’t get stolen!

That’s what everyone thinks, but it actually stands for crappy/confusing metric. Depends which pole/border you’re closer to .o_O
