It’s Sunday evening at 7:27 and I just looked at the forecast for the next few days. As my awesome Norwegian ancestors were often heard to exclaim, Uffda! One of the maps I looked at showed us getting as much as two feet of snow beginning around noon on Tuesday.

As I mentioned last week, I have been looking forward to the time when I can go out and get some open water fishing done. Somehow, last week’s column turned into an essay about eelpout, a fish that has never directly been on my list of fish to catch.

Last week, you followed me along my journey to finally having my prosthetic eye made. I’m still reeling from the experience myself and I know I promised more details about how it was made but first, I must air a grievance. My prosthetic appointments were on Monday and Tuesday of last week.

My 100 year old sister is obviously much tougher than I am. Last year she fell down, split her head open, got 32 staples, and six stitches; then she went out for lunch. After I took my little tumble, I had no staples and no stitches but I spent two days in the ICU and 12 days in rehab.

Being a mom is a lot of work. You already know that. When something suddenly becomes easier, it’s extremely welcome! Both of my kids now know how to make scrambled eggs and pancakes. The responsibility of making breakfast is now shared by the three of us and that’s amazing!
