Has anyone noticed "Basically Betty" has been quiet for three days?  It's really hard to believe that she could be quiet that long. I happen to know her very well and will write for her until she tells me to stop.Â
"Stop" she said. "I am back and I can write my own posting for "Basically Betty".
I feel as though I have been in a heavy fog for these three days and am just now able to see past the end of my nose.   We had a blast of cold air move through so I did not even open the drape those three days. When I opened it today what a surprise there were actually leaves on most of the trees. Those leaves were all rolled up into buds last week. The plants had buds just about to burst open into colorful blooms. That's on the wild plants that grow. The two flower boxes on the patio are filled with Petunias and Pansies all of which are so beautiful in colors pink and purple.Â
Hope to get into town tomorrow to see the "snow".  The blooms off the flowering trees fall and the folks say it's snowing. Of course, some of that snow is pink and some is purple but then this is North Carolina.  This is the "Tar Heel State" maybe that is why the Ladies wear those rubber shoes and men wear things like hiking boots.

Love and prayers from here to thereÂ
