    Yes, we are enveloped in snow. It's lovely and makes our war torn yard look much lovelier than it is.  We called our son in law yesterday and said if you want your daughter back you'll have to come and get her. He has 4w drive and we don't. So they ventured out, alittle slipping and sliding but they made it. And now Abbi could have stayed, school cancelled today and tomorrow.
    So I would call this "kid's week". All their
    dreams come true!
    It doesn't bother me that much, I'll miss a few apps., but that's about it.
    I'm painting my bathroom this week....well preparing to
    paint it and then put some tile over our 70's vinyl.
    That'll keep me out of trouble.
    I made a big pot of split pea soup yesterday, and with
    my manly man's homemade bread were fit as
    fiddles!

      I just saw that storm on tv. Since you don' t have to go out in it and you have a manly man to do the shoveling, enjoy the beauty and the peacefulness that the snow can bring.

      Yes, I always think if one has somewhere warm with plenty of food snow is wonderful. Although it is now many years since I was in it.

      None on our horizon yet (thank goodness). Hearty soups and stews are just what's needed. Happy shovelling!

      Stay warm, stay safe, enjoy. A bowl of warming split pea soup and home made bread sounds perfect to me.

     I've always had a bird feeder, for years now. They bring alot of joy to me, nature so up close and personal. Now that we don't have any pets, we've loved having our bird feeders up again. We have this one tree out back and we have a little of everything for them. A little bird bath, three feeders and a suet feeder. There's usually ten to twenty birds in the tree at all times. Lots of beautiful finches, lots of yard birds, lots of black birds (who are quite noisy) red wing black birds and yellow headed black birds. We finally identified one that we couldn't figure out and its a Evening Grosbeak. Some come and we never see them again, just passing through. But, it's our little obsession right now, gives me something to do every morning. But, dang those birds are eating us out of house and home!

     chop, chop, chop were the sounds I woke up too yesterday. I've been hearing those sounds alot these last few weeks as my manly man has made hot sauce and salsa galore. But..............this morning it was different. I woke up to a beautiful bowl of tabbouleh...my favorite salad. The combination of the bulgar, parsley, cucumber and tomatoes just tickles my palet. My favorite part this time of the year are the pomegranate seeds, they add such color and flavor.(I really shouldn't be eating it but I chewed extra well ummm) Oooops a jar of grape juice just broke, manly man is canning....be right back. O.K. that's cleaned up and I'm heading out for a long overdue walk. It's a lovely day, blue skies and sun.

    all is well

    My daughter Becky should be home from the hospital soon, her surgery went well. Next the mourning for what was and will never be again, she had a lot of good cries last night. They weighed the breast and it was seven and a half pounds! I knew it was close to ten. Like she said jokingly she was looking forward to getting "alot off her chest". When I talked to her on the phone this morning I asked her how in the world did she ever get anything done with a two year old and 5mon. old! I did manage to get us all clean and fed by eleven. Is that good? And to think I raised six! Todays is Becky's Abbie's birthday, we hope to go to the movies this afternoon. I guess on the way home from the hospital they are picking up a new kitty for the children. They had promised them one when they moved in to their house, so how wonderful of them to realize what a good time it would be to bring one home. My children are so wise in so many things.Well........baby calls! Happy Day to you a
