Just An Ordinary Winter Day In Mid Michigan
There really isn’t much to report this morning. Snow is gone except in a few spots where the piles were, but that could change later on. The forecast is calling for snow showers later this afternoon but less than an inch is expected. I still need to get out and finish my Christmas shopping but I have quite a few days scheduled at work and I just don’t feel like going when I get our of work. I’m finally retiring in January and it will seem good not having to live on a schedule.
