Good Morning Judy and all who follow,
I take it the sun must be shining down where you are, from the title of your thread. Cloudy up here and a bit chllly. We got about 3 inches of heavy wet snow last night. Glad it wasn't a lot cause it's the kind that can break down lines and branches if it were to accumulate too much and then have a wind behind it. And I think it will be here to stay now unless we get some more warm weather which is possible. Or rain.
You certainly were the early bird this morning. And it's now 10 a.m. and I'm just getting on here. Made myself a nice bacon and egg breakfast this morning and then got busy getting my jello salad made for tonight's party. It's in the fridge and I will put the topping on later this afternoon. Also made jello for me to eat as I have that after dinner rather than sit down to something sweet. Took a card out to the mald box and played with Tessa for a few minutes. She's all full of heck this mornng cause of the cold weather and loves to play with one of those "holey balls" although she doesn't play as much as she used to. I think she needs another dog around that loves to chase those things to get her really going. Sassy isn't into that stuff. Decided while I was out, to shovel off my back deck so it's easier for them to go out and walk around on it. While I was doing that, Tessa of course did her "P" and made yellow snow on the deck. I think she thinks cause the deck is green and there's snow on it, that she's on the grass
She only does that in winter. Had a bit of entertainment for a few minutes too. A cottontail bunny came out from under the deck and took off across the yard. The dogs of course spotted it and were off in hot pursuit. Now Mr or Mirs. Cottontall is trapped inside my fence so couldn't just go hopping off into the woods. It ran along the fence line with the dogs right behind and finally found the hole that it had gotten into the yard in the first place, ducked through and took off. I was getting a little concerned if it hadn't gotten out and didn't want the dogs to catch it, so I was prepared to go open one of the gates, but didn't need to. So I guess everybody got their exercise . I could just hear that rabbit going NYAH! NYAH! as he headed for the woods and the dogs got stopped short by the fence and stood there watching him go
I see you are busy making plans for next winter already. Don't worry, you will have your MH by then. You have done your homework, figured out what you want and should be all set. I can't wait till the day comes that you can hit the road and read about your adventures. Hopefully that will come for me in a couple of years too. Course with the housing market as is, that will pose the biggest problem for me. I had considered spending the winter in FL and down south this winter, but with moving around from here to there, I haven't figured out how to handle the mail situation especially with income tax stuff coming in pretty soon. Although my cousin said I could forward it to her place. But this winter has been so mild up to now, that I haven't felt like leaving.
Have been thinking of getting a pair of cross country skis and doing that again this winter. Need the exercise to trim off this tummy I am accumulating. But after pricing sets, my reaction is ACK! The prices are crazy. But will investigae it a bit more. I have a pair of snowshoes here that I am trying to sell and if they go, that money can go toward skis. Woud love to go back to the U.P. again and ski some of the groomed trails in the area whee I stay. So much beautiful country up there.
So that's what's going on here this morning. Going to go wrap my White Elephant gift for the party tonight and then not sure what I will get into. Maybe work on my scrapbook or start one of my signs i want to make. Decided to make some wood Welcome signs for the different seasons. Got some small wood cutouts of trees and snowflakes to make the Winter Welcome one, the which I had better get gong on before winter is over
. Also need to wash my hair and take a bath before I head out at 6 p.m.
Have a wonderful day all. If you are traveling, stay safe and enjoy the trip, if you are under the weather, remember this too shall pass.
