Hey y'all ... we're back to more normal, warmer weather ... currently low 60's with a high prodicted to be 85 with scattered showers all week ... low 80's all week too.  Can't say I am sorry to see the return of the sun ... it's been to chilly and gloomy for my tastes here in tropical Belize.  After talking to Sam and hearing her prediction of -25 degrees overnight in Isanti, MN and Nancy @ 6degrees in Johnstown by Tuesday, I am so glad to be, even in the chilly 60's!  Currently Isanti is at -15, Bloomfield is @ 10, Pflugerville is 43, Johnstown is 22 with wind chill making it feel like 14, Northampton is @ 23 and Lompoc is @ 39 ... needless to say, I don't envy Zane returning to the cold in about 2 1/2 weeks!!!  He is, however looking forward to returning home for an assortment of reasons.

It was so nice to talk to Nancy, Renee and Lauren as well as Renee's son Sam yesterday ... the delays on Skype were exaggerated yesterday, but spoke to our Sam and Heather too ... very nice to see them!  Wish some of you others would connect with us this way too!

I think my BFF's have fallen off the face of Northampton and Bloomfield!  Not sure what that is about, but would be grateful to hear from either or both of them very soon.  I do know that our baby boy HAS fullen off the face of Lompoc ... he has even been out of touch with his big sister, which is unusual for them.

anyway, enough of my whining ... just miss contact!

Jay and Zane are heading to Stann Creek today ... small list for them to shop for ... plus see if there is mail (I am expecting stuff) and if the Refridgerator is ready.  Should take them the better part of the day, b/s others are going as well as part of a transport.  Zane is going to purchase another bike for himself (a used, refurbrished one) and will leave it for Sticky when he goes home to use to get out to his farm more regularly.

Am going to work on Lisa's quilt today to get the quilt top together so that when I go back I can get it quilted.  Pretty excited that that too is coming together.  Her's, Jacob's, ours, and will start on baby 'bumps' crib one when that fabric gets here as well as ones for Andrea and Gabe.  Will also try to work on a Wiccaning one for Tracy's g-daugher (Elle) (Adana and John's Babe).  Dearly love that I am getting tons of quilting time here!!!

Well, signing off for now ... Peace ~ out!
