Yesterday

Yesterday morning there was a beautiful sunrise and I tried to capture it.
The melt is going well, it was about 50 degrees - what a mood enhancer!
Today it seems the same but for some reason I just have zero ambition, hopefully that changes as the day goes on because I have a list as long as my arm of things to do.

P.S. They won

Headed for a heatwave

It's supposed to be near 50 degrees above the donut for the next couple of days, how nice is that?
Maybe we will actually be able walk around out there without fear of falling. I worry about that, even Cooper gets nervous!
Yesterday was Valentine's day. We didn't do anything this year, stayed home.

Belated Birthday

Sunday was Rowan's Birthday Party. His actual Birthday was on the 22nd but we waited for the weekend that all the kids could be there.I can't believe he's 4 already! He's into caterpillars and green is his favorite color so green caterpillars with red heads were everywhere. Angie made cupcakes with green frosting and arranged them into a big caterpillar with, of course, a red head - really cute.

Their driveway/yard is just as ours - an ice skating rink. So far, knock on wood, we haven't fallen. I came close yesterday while we were out getting the woodstove filled but I recovered. Weather is still pretty nice but has cooled off some now and is supposed to be quite chilly the next few days but after we survived the cold blast earlier this should be a walk in the park!

The big cleanup is still in full swing. The basement is the current task. It's musty down there so everything porous is ruined. Pictures and papers are stuck together so there's no saving them but even so we've found some pretty good memories. We've so far hauled 8 big bags of garbage out and did some paper burning yesterday. It will be so  nice when it's all done...

Foggy

Foggy again this morning. Can't get any sun throughout the day to melt what is now a very icy driveway. The temps are great, just above freezing.

Thursday the 45th President of the United States of America was sworn in and got right to work on some key issues. There are alot of protesters and riots. Why do they think that will make a difference? Whether you were for or against Donald Trump is irrelevant at this point. I was for him, I believe we need to start thinking about America and American's instead of getting involved overseas. I also would like to see American companies do business IN America or be treated the same as other countries on import. That's my take on the situation.

Today is grandbaby Rowan's 4th Birthday. Time sure flies! We will celebrate next weekend when all the kids can be present to celebrate.

Time to make breakfast...
