Friday the 13th

 Just one week ago, it was Friday the 13th. I've never thought it to be a particularly unlucky day. But I did find it rather unlucky to have to scrape frost off my window before heading to work. And the temperature was surely not on my side either.

In the above picture I thought the headlights shining on the forsythia bushes made it look like they were on fire. That would definitely be bad luck

Then I got to work. As I was sitting there a police car went racing by with sirens blaring. It pulled into the plaza parking lot across the street.

I don't know what was going on but that was also bad luck for someone.

Blinded by the light

 It's so nice to see the sun coming out more and more. It does get a bit difficult to drive sometimes when it's trying to blind you though.

The one day on my way home from work I tried to get a picture of how bad it was. Of course I was paying attention to the road so didn't know what I was getting for pictures.

This is in no way meant as a confession that I was attempting to take pictures while driving down the highway. If asked I will deny everything.

Little buds

 It's so exciting this time of year when you see even the smallest sign that spring is on it's way. I was so happy to see these buds on my lilac bush

Happy St. Patrick's Day

 Today everyone claims to be a wee bit Irish. I wonder if that has anything to do with the green beer?

This little guy decided he would be wearing green today to see if it brings him any luck

Isn't he just the cutest little leprechaun you've ever seen? 

To celebrate the day I used my phones text message app to turn myself into a leprechaun. When I saw the results I was amazed at how much this actually looked like my brother and my father

Whatever you do today, may the luck of the Irish be with you.
