Well actually since February 29th only comes once every four years the fact that it has been an ordinary day should be ok. I have definitely decided that February is the month to escape Toledo even more so than January. We have been back for two weeks and these two weeks have produced enough snow and cold temperatures to help set February records for this area. I am ready for spring, sunshine and warmer temperatures. It doesn't look like they will be here for next week but with March calendar dates the warmer weather has to be coming. The gray days are part of the problem of this area too. The snow is very pretty but without the sunshine it just blends into the gray sky making for a very monocromatic landscape. Blah in other words!
Jessica is coming in for a visit next friday and for that I am thankful. I so enjoy her company and youthful enthusiam. We will have a short visit as she is just here for the weekend but I am sure we will pack much into it. She wants to spend some time with John and Jesi, and of course, continue building that AJ bond with Aunt Jessica, but I am sure there will be some time for chilling with Mom and Dad.
Steve is anxious to get some vacation time on the calendar too. The time in Florida was nice for me but he was working more than if he had been here in Perrysburg, so a vacation is in order. We are hopeful to get away to Tortola again for a little R and R and scuba diving either late April or early May.
Mike was out job interviewing again today. He is ready to get back into the work force and have a daily schedule. There are a couple of full time opportunities that we think will be a great fit, and so we have been reluctant to start any part time jobs, although there seem to be plenty of part time jobs available. We are giving it another week or so and then will pursue that option.
John, Jesi and AJ seem to have settled into the apartment this week. John will be starting his week on the chemo pill Friday and seeing the Toledo radiologist next week. It is so nice to have them closeby and offer whatever help they need.

Gray, Gray, Gray- you are so right how boring. But it sounds like things are looking up in the Perrysburg neighborhood-it all sounds good. You will have a wonderful time with Jessica. And Tortola...sigh...
Good luck to Mike on the job search, I have my fingers crossed. arch will bring us all spring-and the dawning of the new. Feel a big giant cyber hug for the whole Stanford family.
Hey - sending some southern sunshine your way! So glad you will have your gang together - special times for the Stanfords.
My best to all of you. I feel confindent Mike will have a job very soon.
Just know that I think of you every day and continue to pray for you all, most especially John for total healing.
Smooches!
