Thursday, February 2, 2023 Rainy a.m, Cloudy Breezy Cold 43 Degrees 3:44 p.m.

Another cold winter day. The weatherman said that the rain has stopped in this area for now and we should have sunshine and a bit warmer for the next fives days. That would be Fantastic.):

Today, I have done the usual household chores and then started scrap booking a book that will be Tina’s as the first package of pictures I picked up out of the drawer is pictures of her graduation from the University of Phoenix. I will get it done shortly, probably tomorrow. Then I will see what surprise greets me next.

The soup and corn bred was so good last night. It fit the need of something hot as well as nourishing to end the day with. After cleaning up the kitchen we watched TV for a bit then went upstairs to bed. I am reading a good book so curled up under the warm covers and read for an hour or so. Sierra curled up there with me, sort of snuggling under the top cover. I guess she thought it was a good warm place also.

This morning it was 33 degree when we got up, so chilly. Tomorrow morning, so they say, it will be colder. We will again leave the back bathroom dink faucet dripping and the cupboard door open. We don’t want frozen pipes. There have been a lot of them in the Oak Ridge, Knoxville,Clinton area this winter. Plumbers have been kept busy.

Quote of the day: ” The hope of heaven, the knowledge that we’ll someday enjoy “peace eternal”, means we can face anything here on earth as long as we focus on the joy that’s waiting for us in heaven.” My Calendar

Have a great rest of your Thursday. Make it a fantastic, fancy, favorite, and fun rest of your day.

Blessings

Wednesday, February 1, 2023 Cloudy Cold Still 41 Degrees 4:33 p.m.

Hello February. Winter is still with us. We are no in the icy part of the latest storms, but it is still cold, the damp bone chilling cold. To keep the furnace from running constantly I am dressed warm, or at least as warm as I can and still be able to move and do things. This is my blouse, sweater and a vest. It works quite well. I have hand warmers but think feet warmers would be a great invention, or purchase if they make them.

After listening to the news and of how terribly cold it is in Chicago and so many other places in the middle of the United States and the North East, I have no complaints. My heart goes out to all those who are suffering from the cold. I think of the homeless, those who can’t afford their heating bills, and those who have all and still can’t use what they have because of no electricity, or what ever keeps their stoves going. It is a rough winter indeed.

Here it is dinner time and time for me to get my corned bread made. We are having vegetable soup, made by Dottie. It is so good. That and corned bread and I am not sure about desert as yet.

Quote of the day: “Women. Remember, as we get older we are no longer having hot flashes. They are now called power surges!” My calendar

Have a great rest of your day. Make it a bright, shiny , cheerful and fun day.

Blessings
