This is not one of my usual columns, but I wanted to share this story with you. It was a very different March for my family and I. The storms days without electricity and the birth of a new family member.

I don’t have much to say about this past weekend’s weather.

We are having 50-degree weather this week then a northeaster this weekend.

Here we go. It snowed this past weekend. Now on Monday as I write this it is supposed to be near or in the 50s mid-week then cold again. I can say Welcome to New England again and again, but what a tease.

It seemed we might have to build an ark this past weekend.

The sun has been out a few days this past week. Sunday morning was warm and Monday even though the wind was blowing was so bright and beautiful.

I am listening to the wind blow outside and wonder what precipitation is going along with it.

Here we are the end of January. We have had Arctic air, followed by fog and warm weather — and my dog is shedding like crazy. I don’t know, is this a good sign?

Just checked the temperature and it said 29 degrees feels like 13 degrees.

Well I can honestly say I have never felt so cold. It certainly is creating a stir and I know that the ponds have frozen so the kids can skate.
