You know things aren’t okay when it’s 3 am and I’m racing to get a post up. After an excruciating day of slow and crashing computers I called my host, Godaddy and apparently they are at fault for the  “failure to connect to data base” error message. I’ve spent hours getting another blog ready and it simply won’t publish so I’m here now cobbling something else. The high res. collage looked okay. CRASH. Resorted to a screenshot. Oops, had to crop the top off. Not high res. but here ya go.  The silver lining in the bag of shit are the snowdrops. There are mountains of snow left. The delicate harbingers of spring are late. Later than I can recall in the 14 years I’ve live here. But they’re HERE. No matter how crappy a winter, they don’t care about computer or other problems. They’re here and it feels like magic. Have a happy St. Patrick’s Day. Who knows I might get a taste of Irish luck and blog again this week.
