Long, cold winter

I have not shared my experiences for sometime.   Mostly, I think, because I seem to have become a boring person.  I still learn lessons generally as a result of something I didn't adequately consider.  (For instance, having the trunk door come down on my head when loading my new car--saw stars).  Over the past few weeks I have wondered when exactly I became a dud....but hopefully it will change when the sun shines, the snow melts and the shovel is put away forever!!
