It's a very wintry morning and everyone is just waiting for the big snowstorm. Forecast is 8-10 inches today and overnight! My shrubs out front are already almost covered from the last snow. Hope your weather is being good to you! Hugs, Nancy
Hi, my friends, thank you, thank you, thank you, for all your wonderful comments. They have lifted my spirits. I do hope you are healthy and happy, and doing fun things.
Oh my gosh, it has been so long since I have been able to spend any time here on The Hill. I'm quarantined/out of work since March and I am busier than I have ever been. I started replacing rotten siding last November and a freak snowstorm dropped almost 2 feet of extremely soaking wet/heavy snow. So, there sits the bottom of my front wall all torn off and waiting until Spring for me to finish, along with my porch, torn off the house listing/sinking backward. There are buckets under it to keep it solid/sturdy.
In September refer died so I had to have a new one installed. It was on it's last leg and not cooling, and at the bottom was freezing veggies. Well, the delivery guys were kids and couldn't grasp the basic fundamentals of the mechanics of the mask, so I ended up catching the common cold (rhinovirus). I wore 2 masks, so that pretty much proves to me what they are saying about: my mask protects others not so much me; but others masks are what protect me more than mine does. I do have N-95 left over from working construction the last 45 years, with a double bandanna on top of that.
All the holidays have been quiet 'cause I can't go anywhere & no one can visit. The virus has been wicked spiking here in NH; and now we have the variants. So I am so careful, washing anything and everything as it is brought into the house, and lots of hand-washing.
Working on taxes now, and getting rid of clutter, and sorting/sprucing-up/repairs/maintenance/deep cleaning. Oiy!!! Then with what's been going on since all of 2020 with that putrid, fly-infested, steaming, orange pile of pig diarrhea, desecrating our Democracy and the Capital. I can't even process any of it any more. I'm in the Twilight Zone!!!!
Well, have a great Valentine's and Winter, I'm still planning on getting here on The Hill a whole lot more often. Stay happy and healthy and have fun.
I feel so sorry for all the birds and animals that live outside. Everything is frozen solid. Where do birds, horses, etc. get a drink of water? There are so many birds in the trees and at the bird feeder. I am sending to everyone...
OK. I feel sorry for you and especially for myself. I am FREEZING! We lowered the temperature inside by 2 and I don't like it.
good morning George, yep the Winter weather has a grip on much of the nation. Like TX though, we'd be paralyzed by that kind of cold and ice. The terrible car pileup in Fort Worth was so sad. Not cold here just very rainy. Have a good weekend.
Happy Valentine's Day my precious friend. I wish you all the love and happiness in the world on this special occasion. Thank you so much for the beautiful friendship. Love always, Grace
OUR WEATHER HAS BEEN TERRIBLE. WAY BELOW ZERO FOR SOME TIME NOW. ALL OUR SNOW IS ICE AND YOU CAN'T MOVE IT. THEY ARE CALLING FOR MORE SNOW TONIGHT, TOMORROW AND ALL NEXT WEEK. THEY ARE SAYING WE COULD GET UP TO 15 MORE IN. ON NEW SNOW. DON'T KNOW WHERE WE WILL PUT IT. WE ARE NOW WORRIED ABOUT OUR ROOFS. ALL THAT WEIGHT UP THERE IS NOT GOOD. SO SAY A PRAY OUR ROOF STAYS UP. HOPE YOU AND YOUR WIFE ARE DOING BETTER. KEEPING THE BOTH OF YOU IN OUR DAILY PRAYERS. GOD BLESS YOU BOTH WITH HEALING. ((((((HUGS))))))) LEE

Hello to you my friend and hope your keeping your feet warm. The freeze has hit our area and very unusual cold for us. All week will have freezing temps getting down to 11 degrees one day. Had freezing rain yesterday causing many accidents and school closures. Still a lot of ice on trees but many of you are used to this. Just staying in and keeping warm, Have a great weekend...George
