Today's Facebook Note

I hope everyone in the path of that relentless winter storm stayed safe and warm. It had an interesting impact upon yesterday’s football games. (American football to my British and Aussie readers.) My Eagles looked as if they were playing in a blizzard at times, the white uniforms of the Lions looked like camouflage, and we actually heard a ref calling for a halt because “We cannot see the end zone.” (It was probably my imagination that conjured up a polar bear stalking the sidelines just before halftime.) It is a lovely day in Eagles Nation, and also a good day for fans of the Ravens, Saints, San Francisco, Chiefs, Packers, and Broncos, though you Ravens fans are likely still hyperventilating. My sympathies to Vikings fans in general and Stephanie in particular, for your guys lost a heartbreaker.
I am happy to report that Holly is doing much better, and I’ll take her in for more blood work tomorrow, which I hope will show the lipase enzymes levels have gone down. Thank you all for your good wishes and sympathy. A friend of mine lost her beautiful shepherd this weekend when she got out through a gate and was struck by a car, the driver not even bothering to stop, so hug your pets tonight. Hug your kids, too. Hey, hug all the people who matter in your lives, for we never know what horrors lurk down the road, and thank God for that.
More snow on the way, so drive safe. (My friends and readers Down Under can ignore this caution.)
