a typical day of this and that...

these were the only clouds that I saw yesterday...
sun shining so bright and blue, blue skies...

its still cold out there, though...
but the standing water is all down...
and we can see the field again...

I had a helper with my photo taking...
she is so sweet...

switched windows to get the south side...
still got snow over there...

I love the sunlight coming through the lace...

it even make the curtains glow pretty...

of course I had to play with the babies...
who totally trashed their room...
again...
they love playing in the oatmeal box...

this one is going to be a shredder...
she acts more like a puppy than a kitty...

Hermie...
taking it all in with half closed eyes...
laying on the heating pad...
DH uses it before he does his pt...
when he is done with the pt, he has to ice it down...
its not on, but don't tell Hermie that...

still lovin' the vintage feel of this print with the cancelled stamps...

leftovers were for supper last night...
and we finally finished off the chicken and noodles...
the guys veggie soup is gone, too...
I have a wee bit of mine left, but will probably do that for lunch today...

just a typical day around here...
it did get up to 33...
got warmer days coming and we even get to change the clocks this weekend...

DH has another pt session at the hospital this afternoon...
he said he would bring me a whopper home for supper...
;)
its a good thing we don't live in a town with a Burger King...
I would have whoppers for breakfast!

I am not sure what all will get done today...
its one of those, yeah, it might happen days...
Craig goes in at 4, so he can help a bit this morning before he goes in...
;)

have a fun day and if you have sun...
just rest a spell in it...
it will do you so much good!
;)

have an awesome Tuesday!

still working on things here...

tweaking is one of my favorite past times...

now a word from the gang...
all of us bunnies just wanted to say hi...

and to tell you to have the most awesome Tuesday you can have...

because you only get one of them a week!

and that somebunny loves you very much...

even enough to buy you chocolate this year!

so you better be good...

or you could get rotten eggs in your basket this year...


weather here- still winter...
weather tomorrow- probably still winter...
but...
its spring in here!
have a good day and I will be hopping around to see you later...
;)

we were so blessed!

most of what they were calling for went south of us and missed us!

after 12 hours of sleet, we started getting the dreaded snow...
which could have been up to 14 inches...
or so they said...

Mr Wiggles loves to watch it snow...

but this morning, this is all we ended up with!
you can still see the grass!
thank you, Lord!

now, to ward of snow, you must get out the eggs and bunnies...
and pray, too...
that's really important...
and wear your flip flops...
just think what would have happened if I would have shaved my legs!!!!
we could be in the 70s by now...
ok, that's an inside joke, kind of...
you know my mom didn't believe in anything like this...
but...
every year, when we lived on the farm...
spring didn't happen until I wore my shorts on a weekend...
while cleaning house...
and every year, as soon as I did that, winter would break and spring would happen...
I told mom it was true and she was such a none believer, or so I thought...
well, one winter was extra long and I had yet to don the shorts...
so one weekend, mom and I were spring cleaning, and she goes...
'don't you think its time to wear your shorts?'
what's that you say, mom?
you believe in my shorts?
'I'm not saying that at all, but just maybe it would help push things along...'
so, I ran and dug out my shorts and sure enough...
that was the end of winter...
coincidence?
or course it was...
but don't tell mom!
stay warm and have a happy day!
;)

go green when you can...

want to see what's in my bag?
got any idea?

a 2 liter coke bottle...
washed out and the top cut off...
why? might you ask...

thinking spring here and planning ahead...
to cover my tomato and pepper plants...
frost won't get them and the bunnies won't eat them either...
thunder in February brings frost in May...
or so they say...
covering all my bases here...

and don't throw the top away!
a free funnel with every purchase...
great for pouring a bag of bird seed into a upcycled plastic jug...
great for putting oil and transmission fluid in a vehicle...
gas in the mower...
and you can throw it away without guilt, cuz you got more!

had a super day yesterday, but going so much slower today...
lost my energy...
so going to simple things today...
like making up poop boxes for the babies...
we are doing steaks, baked potatoes and salad for dinner...
got a chicken in the oven for chicken and noodles for supper...
going to mash some potatoes to go with it, too...
we got a good two hours of sleet very early this morning...
but the 10-15 inches of snow is just a tiny trace...
and now they have down sized it for the 5th time this morning to 1-3...
its tracking south...
so sorry for all of you that are going to get in instead of us now...
but, YEAH! for me!
ok, time to get the steaks on...
have a great Sunday and be a blessing to someone...
;)

it has begun...

there will some of you who think I am crazy...
and say I missed a holiday..
but no, I just extend this one...

I know Paddy's day is next...
but it doesn't involve chocolate...

so I started playing around yesterday afternoon...
my reward for purging more than a full tote from a couple of my kitchen cabinets...

and it felt so good...

its 2am here right now and the freezing rain has begun...

winter storm warning now until Monday...

so here it is as of now...
I will probably tweak more and move things around a bit...
and there is green in there...
green grass, green easter eggs, green leaves in the print...
which finally got hung today...

and there is always an escapee...
who was so eggscited about being out to help...
that she fell asleep with the crab...
they play so hard right up until they crash...

not going anywhere today...
chicken and noodles are on the menu...
made veggie soup yesterday....

DH did his therapy well today and without my help...
;)
but he sure didn't feel good and his cold was getting the better of him...
I had an awesome day...
neither one of us has an infection, snot is clear now...
so we did not do the clinic...
I think a few more days and the cold will have run its course...
have a good day playing inside today...
and get out your flip flops and pretend its spring!
