Hello, Readers.
Time for another blog.
The Erie area had a nice melt this week.
Never mind that at the time of this writing
it is now,
once again,
37 degrees and raining.
Still,
seeing the snow piles disappear
was a welcome sight.
We got to wash our vehicles!
On Thursday evening the car thermometer read 72 degrees,
so I got to add a row of yellow
to my weather blanket.
I picked yellow to represent the 70's.
Yellow is one of my favorite of colors,
and 70's are my favorite of temperatures.
I'm hoping at year's end,
my blanket will have lots of yellow.
I even spotted a robin!
On the early morning of March 3rd,
I spotted these three crows
following me around the park
on an early morning walk before church.
On the early morning of March 10th,
it was pitch black--so no photos.
Eloise just sort of rolls with the government mandated time changes.
The slight altering of sleep schedules
never seems to have much of an impact on me.
However, I think this is a really good suggestion.
There are lots of opinions being voiced about the necessity of
Daylight Saving Time,
apparently the proper way to write it
is Saving, without the second S.
According to the article in the link below,
Pennsylvania is one of the states considering opting out.
Weekend Homework:
Make an informed opinion on DST.
Daylight saving time (DST) in the United States is the practice of setting the clock forward by one hour during the warmer part of the year, so that evenings have more daylight and mornings have less. All but two states in the USA currently observe DST, the exceptions being Arizona (except for the Navajo Nation, which does observe daylight saving time) and Hawaii.
The overseas territories of American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the United States Virgin Islands also do not observe DST.
Here's another good one,
with a map!
My Questies have been working hard on their Pi homework.
It's not a skill that is typically covered in elementary school.
A big thanks to Anna and Eli for these pies!
The older Questies spent some time
engaging their big brains at the Tom Ridge Center
for a workshop for gifted and talented students.
The 72 degree evening
was time for tank tops
and Ty Beanies
at Team Adrenaline.
If you like to plan ahead,
save some time for trying outdoor workouts
with Team Adrenaline,
my favorite fitness group.
They are free during the entire month of April!
#word.
Sorry Harbor Creek School District,
but I have to admit I've been moonlighting
at the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company
Scranton Branch.
I had to walk away from the job last Sunday.
I finished the last episode!
After three cheers for a fabulously written ending,
I looked at my girls and said,
Wait for your Jim.
I turned to my son and said,
Be Jim.
Sam replied,
I thought you would want me to be Dwight Schrute
because that is your favorite character.
Sigh.
This is someone else's bullet journal,
but I agree that these are probably the best episodes.
Can't wait to watch this new series.
I'm sure Natalie's friend Ryan
is very, very upset with Aunt Becky's
real life behavior.
Think I could photo shop this to get Ellen on
USC's crew team?
She was captain of the Huskies, you know.
Eloise will end this blog tonight
with a quote from Albert Einstein,
who was born 140 years ago,
in Ulm, Germany
on March 14th--
oddly enough on what we now refer to as
Pi Day 3.14.
Have a great weekend, Readers.
ELOISE
