Our church has set February as a time to show love for one another. Each week this month, families who chose to participate act as a “secret pal” for another family. I’ve enjoyed choosing a couple of surprises for my assigned family, but wish I could ask them for better gift ideas.

Well, I captured this beautiful peacock the day we got our dusting of snow. It sure was a calm January weather wise, and hopefully February will be the same. I’m kind of spoiled to being able to still walk my miles outside on these beautiful spring like days.

Recently, I had some home repairs done. Because home repairs are commonly worrisome and costly, prevention – when possible – is a great choice. And home-maintenance advice is even available on the Internet.

I think sometimes maybe I should have entitled my column, this and that.
Bett said recently, “Men mostly start wars. I’ve never heard of women starting a war”, she said. I thought about this some. I told her, “I’m a man. I never thought about starting a war.”
