Dear Tyler and Hunter

We have started January 2010. It seems impossible how the time is flying by us. I have been ill since November, so have not been much fun. The weather has been miserable anyway, so have not missed much that way. We have been able to stay home more than we really like. I have been to the Doctor 3 times now to try and get rid of whatever this bug is that is keeping me sick. Someday I hope to be able to look back and laugh about this, but right now, I just want to get better! We are looking forward to next weekend already as Tyler and all will be coming here for 2 whole days, one at Aunt E's and the other here. I hope the weather holds. No storm is on the horizon yet! We are in a January thaw right now, which I like! The Sun has actually been out 2 days this past week. What a nice feeling. The temperature is about freezing again! We spent 3 weeks or more in the deep freeze. Oh how I would love to go South in the Winter! The only thing about that is that South has been hit with a cold snap this year as well. There were a couple of days when it was the same temp there as here or a few degrees warmer. They had temps in the low 20's when it was about 15 below here! Yikes! I better get some other things done now before the day escapes me! Just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you both! More later! Love you, Grandma Kate!
