Another month starts and I hear a lot of people saying, I’m glad February’s over. And so it is March. Coming in like a lion and going out like a lamb, or is it the other way around?

The Pope has retired, the Federal Budget is about to be sequestered and it’s a warm sunny day outside.

One friend posted on Facebook today, “’He gave back his ring, his cape, and his red papal shoes...’ This line on the news made me think of a Maurice Sendak book.” To that, I’ll add “Fla. man swallowed by a sinkhole is feared dead”, “Michigan governor clears way for state takeover of Detroit “, and “Chocolate covered marshmallow eggs recalled over salmonella concerns”.

Tonight, I will probably make a last minute trip to see the Inidigo Girls in Concert, go home and try to catch up on sleep tomorrow, and then head off to a funeral on Sunday. The fun just never stops.
