Last year I was golfing on March 25th in short sleeves. Today there is still snow on the ground. Global warming my ass! (...)

Wow do we have the snow! No end in sight until after midnight. Probably 8-10 inches so far. Accumulations up to 15 inches in some areas for this storm. I don’t see SVSU being open tomorrow. (...)

April SNOW Showers
Last Sunday was it was 70 and sunny. I was out golfing. It was April Fools Day and the joke was on us. The past few days have brought temperatures in the 20s and snow. I drove up to Rogers City last night and ran into a snow storm with 2 inches of fresh snow. Whatever happened to simply “April showers” to bring the May flowers? (...)

Enjoying the Weather Among Other Things
I’ve been enjoying the weather for the past several weeks which means spending less and less time on the computer. That also means less time for blogging and less updates here as well as my other blogs. I’ve also cut back on my poker playing dramatically which takes away computer time as well. This is all a good thing. (...)

Marching On
I love the month of March for two reasons. March Madness and the coming of warmer Michigan weather. The month of March is heaven for college basketball fans and NCAA bball just happens to be my favorite sport to watch. The teamwork, intensity, atmosphere, and everything about the game draws me in. (...)

April Michigan Weather
On Tuesday it was a sunny 85 degrees here in Michigan and and Thursday night I mowed my lawn. Right now it’s in the low 30’s and snowing. Yes…it’s snowing in late April! There’s a Winter Weather Alert in effect through noon Sunday with up to 8 inches expected. Gotta love Michigan weather. (...)

Short Monday
Last Monday SVSU didn’t open until noon because of an ice storm. Tomorrow, it’s because of snow. Next Monday might be locusts. Just found this on the SVSU site. (...)

Still Coming Down
The snow is still coming down at a rate of an inch/hour. I’d say we’ve gotten about 10 inches in the last 12 hours. Maybe SVSU will close down tomorrow and I won’t have to work. Saginaw Public schools have already been canceled. (...)

Typical Michigan Weather
Yesterday the sun was out and there was green grass everywhere. So maybe it was a greenish-brown, but at least you could see grass in everyone’s yard. Our snow had been gone for about a week. This morning when I woke up there was just a little bit of white powder on the ground; a little harmless snow. (...)

Rain Or Snow
You can’t help but love/hate Michigan weather. This morning I woke up to 50+ degree weather. It had been raining for over 24 hours straight, so all of our snow had disappeared, but there was standing water everywhere. This afternoon, the rain turned to snow. Very wet snow. This snow mixed with the water and we now have slush all over. (...)

White Stuff
The forecast says up to 8 inches of snow by tomorrow afternoon. Just what I need before I travel up north for the holidays. (...)

October Sucks
October has to be the worst month of the year. At least in Michigan it is. It’s raining every fucking day. The sun never comes out. It’s always cloudy. Mornings are foggy. There are leaves blowing around everywhere. All of this puts people in a bad mood, including me. Most of the time I don’t even feel like leaving the house, except to buy food and supplies. (...)

Water Logged
Golf league was interesting tonight. It was sprinkling at the beginning of the round and wasn’t bad at all for about 4 holes. On the 5th and 6th it really started to come down though! We figured that we were already soaked, so we might as well keep playing, especially since we were scoring well. Three times I had to adjust my swing on the way through because the club would have went flying. (...)

Rain, Rain, Go Away
I always thought it was “April showers bring May flowers.” It has rained almost every single day in May so far. It helps out the golf season in the long run, but prevents it from really kicking off. Thursday was my first time out and I shot a 49, which wasn’t too bad for not having swung a club yet this year. Then I went out Friday with Jere and Steph and shot a 51. (...)

Heat Wave
I’m not ready for the hot weather. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday it was over 70 each day and today it passed 80. Today was especially bad because it was extremely muggy to go along with the heat. (...)
Another Day Off
I took that directly from the SVSU website. Yes, we are closed once again because of the storm that came though the past two days. Every time this happens, I love working for a small University more and more. You can’t argue against what in reality is an “unplanned paid vacation” as I’ll call it. (...)

SVSU Campus Closed
SVSU is closed again today because of the big storm coming through. I don’t have to work, but still get paid…I love it! We are supposed to get 6-10 inches today, so if that happens I wouldn’t be suprised if we get canceled tomorrow also. Enjoy your day, I know I’m going to enjoy mine! (...)

4 Game Winning Streak
Today we finally played a good game in basketball league. We beat a team (by about 14) that we barely lost to in the first half of the season. We really shot well and took good shots. My shot finally came around as I stepped in closer to the basket and made a few drives to the hole. I had at least 20 of our 54 or so points. Felt good to finally drill some shots. (...)

University Closing
Just got word a little while ago that SVSU is closing at noon because of all the snow on the way. Looks like I get to go home early and play! (...)

It Begins Today
This post doesn’t really have any overall topic…so excuse the jumbled mess. I said I was going to start getting in shape and it started today. Just got back from our basketball game for Saginaw Township. We won by about 5 points and are now 2-2 for the season. Everyone was pretty rusty from the holiday break, so we’re happy to pull out the win. (...)

1st Snowfall
Yesterday marked the first snowfall (at least in Saginaw), and I’ve decided that I’m not ready for it to snow yet. In fact, I’m not sure if I’ll be ready all winter. When I’m ready, I’ll let Mother Nature know. (...)
What about LA))
