Manageable weather and corona-virus woes

So far it's been a mild winter, inconvenient at times but manageable. Birds have returned to the feeders having been practically missing in action since late August. Hopefully a good sign for an active spring, summer and fall activity. Work has been busier than I like making me more anxious to retire than I had been. Doesn't make it any easier thinking about my retirement funds waving in the winds of the corona-virus with stock market and other means of retirement savings giving investors nightmares. Fortunately I'm pretty well diversified and should manage to come out of it with gains before I need it.

Welcome to Superbowl Sunday!

So my Green Bay Packers didn't make it to the big game - close though, one win short. That said the two teams that made it should put on a great show. The team that beat the Pack the San Francisco 49ers vs. the Kansas City Chiefs. We'll watch it from home, the cheapest tickets were running in the $10,000 range, a little above my pay grade. For the record I'm picking the Chief's to win 38 to 24. The bettor's spread I think is Chief's minis 1. If it's a good game it doesn't matter to me who wins - entertain me.
