Maybe I’ll have some real snow photos to show tomorrow! Our weather people sure are excited while predicting inches of the white stuff. Stay tuned…time will tell.
Photobucket replaced all my photos with ugly black and grey boxes and they are holding my photos hostage until I pay them lots of money. I’m slowly going through all my posts and trying to clean them up and replacing some photos. Such a bother.
I was born on a Wednesday and this is just not true about me. One evening this week we were talking about what day of the week we were born on and the old rhyme…
Mondays child is fair of face,
Tuesdays child is full of grace,
Wednesdays child is full of woe,
Thursdays child has far to go,
Fridays child is loving and giving,
Saturdays child works hard for his living,
And the child that is born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.
Well come to find out Dear was born on a Wednesday, too. All three of our children were born on Friday. Our daughter in law was born on a Sunday. Our future SIL was born on a Wednesday. So what day of the week were you born on?
We are getting some dry days with sun peeking out here and there. We hope to take advantage of the dryness to get some outside work done. On Tuesday I pruned the pear tree. We’re hoping to prune the apple tree and get the flag pole installed before the weekend is over. I have 3 different flags for my flag pole. I hope to be able to show them to you soon.
Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone!
Our cold clear days have afforded us some beautiful sunrises.
The colors change quickly so it’s good to pay close attention with your camera at hand.
The rain is suppose to return on Thursday. I’m in the midst of doing some re-evaluating of my daily schedule and seeing how things can improve for me and the family. On Monday and Wednesday mornings I go to the YMCA for Zumba. I felt the need to have an aerobic workout on Fridays, too, so Mondays wouldn’t wipe me out. The solution that I came up with is to do a thorough house cleaning every Friday. Cleaning is a great aerobic workout and it’s a win win idea for myself and the family. Somewhere along the way I have gotten out of the weekly cleaning schedule.
On Thursday Katie and I have an appointment to check out another wedding venue. I’ll make sure and take some photos!
Have a great Thursday everyone!

Cold is relative, though, as I hear about -7 degrees for some of our bloggy friends across the continent. Some of you are under a blanket of snow and ice. I hope you have your cupboards stocked and your power remains.
The view from my computer is very bright. The sun has a way of cheering one’s outlook.
February is here and we’ll soon be celebrating Valentines Day. I’ve brought out the Love already.
Hope you are safe and cozy wherever you are!

We finally had a full day of sun on Wednesday so I packed my camera and headed out to document the golden orb and it’s effect on some of our landscape.
These photos were taken at Log Boom Park on Lake Washington.
I found out this is a male Bufflehead Duck thanks to Bev. Thank you Bev!
Ahhh…that was nice and it’s enough to get me through our next couple days of rain that are in the forecast.

I’m in a blogging slump of sorts. Moving on…
One look outside this morning and I knew where I would be.
I’m holed up inside away from the slush, hibernating in my den.
We are waiting on a part for our fireplace insert that died which makes this weather seem even colder. We have been congregating in our family room where our little stove is working and keeping that room warm.
These photos were taken before the sun was up.
Dear did make it out early this morning and reports he only had one trouble spot on the way to work. Later in the morning Katie braved the roads to go into work to train some people to do her job. She gets points for overcoming her snow driving fears. I still might get brave enough to make a trip to the post office and library. Time will tell. For more weighty matters…
Today marks the 1 year anniversary of the devastating earthquake in Haiti. Our DIL works at World Concern and if you want a trustworthy place to donate money for the work in Haiti check them out. They have been working there for years and were there when the earthquake struck and are still there helping to rebuild homes and lives. World Concern in Haiti.

Woke up to this scene looking out my stairwell window.
The welcome mat
Our front walk with just enough snow not to bother shoveling.
I like the new snow blooms!
What are we in for:
Sitting at home avoiding the icy roads and spin outs.
Canceling any appointments.
Hours and hours of weather news on all our major channels.
Overeating- I don’t know why it just happens.
Spiking stuff like eggnog, etc.
Talking about the snow to anyone we see.
Pulling out all the wool and boots and gloves!
Hoping that our power does not go out.
Have a good day y’all. You know where you can find me.
I’m linking up to Susan’s Outdoor Wednesday.

The Challenge for today is weather! Click on the Robin to see more “weather”.
Snoqualmie Falls December of 2009
It was cold enough that the mist from the falls froze causing this icy spectacular sight.
***Oops I forgot to make 3 suggestions for future Photo Challenges. This isn’t easy. How about a color challenge. Or maybe “strangers unaware”. Have we done wheels, or barns, or statues, or neon signs, or signs in general? Now I’m getting carried away…

…from the rain. My neighborhood is sunny today and we’re happy to have a dry day here!
My brother and his wife are on their way for us to celebrate his birthday all day long. Fun times.
Hope your day is going well…
After all the fires that burned so many hillsides in Southern California a rain event here can trigger mudslides and flash floods without much warning. The rain here in the Camarillo area has been coupled with heavy winds so eucalyptus debris is just flying through the air. The air smells of eucalyptus which is a nice change from other smells we can get because of the extensive farming in this area. Weather advisories are streaming across the television.
Looks pretty scary! Hopefully the predictions won’t come through…
Photobucket is holding all my photos that I stored on their site from 2007-2015 hostage replacing them with ugly grey and black boxes and asking for a large ransom to retrieve them. It is a slow process to go through all my posts deleting the ugly boxes.
