Connie's Corner

Dear me....

I am sitting here listening to the "state of the union" message. Of course, I only need one ear and no fingers for that . So I figured I might as well write the big news for Florida....snow is predicted for right here in Gainesville on Thursday morning. But our forecaster says the ground is too warm for it to stick or amount to anything...Thank God! I moved to Florida to get away from that stuff. I notice it is getting close to one digit in Delaware where my daughter lives, and I've given up on looking at the weather in N.D. where my son is. I figure I suffer through the high humidity and extreme temps in our five-month summers to be comfortable in January. What's happening here?

I have been debating on whether or not to write a "dear me" letter, but I think I would be doomed to failure if I expressed any goals for the year. I looked up the definition of the phrase and found the following: Mild dismay or regret, such as, "good god" or "my goodness", a polite explanation expressing surprise, distress, sympathy, shock, dismay, or disappointment. Dear me.
