Dumbstruck Day


Ironically, March 15 is "Dumbstruck Day."  A day to be totally dumbstruck over the overwhelming things you see, hear and read. Oh, the news this morning. Another vicious act of hate and violence, this time in one of the most peaceful countries on earth. 

We're headed into a glorious week of weather, long overdue. Yesterday we finally broke the cold spell-- 39 consecutive days with below normal temperatures.  I seriously overworked myself in the garden, a Spring tradition. Today I'm taking it easier, maybe get a pedicure or something, and try not to think too much about anything. 

For us corned beef and cabbage lovers, St. Patrick's Day is Sunday. Not exactly health food, but a treat. Like tofu, corned beef ignites strong feelings of like/dislike.  I got a great deal at Safeway, and bought an extra one for the freezer. Hard to beat a good corned beef and Swiss sandwich, or homemade corned beef hash and eggs. Just my humble opinion.

We have a symphony on Sunday that includes a big Bach choral work.  That type of program really brings out the crowd, and with the holiday and nice weather, downtown will be busy.  Maybe we'll take Uber for a change.
