New V. Old

Spring time is coming! The world is awakening. It's a time of birth and new life. Yet amidst all the newness, there is some oldness and some death. I guess I've just been in the mood for comparing opposites lately. So here goes another comparison...

New:
Adelaide Coulter born to John and Morgan last Sunday. She is new and lovely and will be formidable, mark my words
Green weeds continue to grow in our yard and although they're a pain, at least they're green and spring-like
Fauf has unlocked her Starbucks internet access, which has opened new opportunities for online exploration
We purchased new drapes for our sliding door in the family room, which makes our manor that much more complete
There is a new market opening in Santa Maria this Monday, known as Trader Joe's! Hooray

Old:
This cough is getting very old and tiresome to the Fauf
Trying to get a hold of Azusa college for some credential info is getting very old and boring
The Shaw's obsession for Scrabble has temporarily died and been replaced with Skip-Bo (gasp)
Fauf feels the pressures of growing old as her birthday countdown begins on Monday the 16th (a month from her bday, in case you needed to mark your calendar)
