March 9th 2010
Day 68 – Oh how time flies. I pay more attention to the day that is to your left than I do to what day it actually is. We have ben 68 days into this year. That is amazing. Spring is slowly returning here in Georgia and it is wonderful. We not only like the wonderful weather, but the beautiful calming sounds of life are outside behind our apartment. I like this time of year. Things feel new.
