Winter just won't give up! Wednesday evening there were lots of Robins in the yard. Today we will not get above freezing for 24 hours or more. And the on and off rain along with the 20 mph winds with gusts to over 40 mph make it very miserable out there.
I might get started today turning the clocks forward as I have about 20 to change. Thank goodness others automatically change.
So it is a perfect day for Chicken & Dumplings! 5.5 lbs of chicken cooked with garlic, pepper, ginger and tumeric and ready for soups, parsley, carrots and chopped up chicken put in to simmer before the biscuits are put on top. What are you having today? Come on over soon or tomorrow for leftovers as it is better each day.
The Okapi, also known as Forest Giraffe, Congolese Giraffe or Zebra Giraffe, is not related to Zebra. The Okapi and Giraffe are the only living members of the family Giraffidae. They are about 4.9' tall, weigh 440 to 770 lb, and about 8.2' long. It can be found at the Fort Worth zoo and is from the deepest parts of the Democratic Republic of Congo rainforests.
Good afternoon my friend. I hope its a good one for you. Its not a bad day here. But its calm before the storm that is coming sometime tonight. We could get some snow. I don't want snow but at least its some moisture. Have a great rest of you day and take care. Cheryl
So many people on my prayer list right now... friends and family and friends that are like family. So please today share your blessings with others.
I know our high Friday will only be around 40 but the birds are all thinking it is Spring. Robins, cardinals, sparrows and so many more are everywhere in yards and on feeders... waiting for Hummingbirds to return.
Hope that puts a smile on your face and you will continue to share it with others.
Late yesterday, the girl texted me that her doctor appointment got changed and I didn't have to work for her today. Well, thank goodness. 37° and sleet. I-30 was not moving either.
We decided mid morning that we would go get groceries. As we were ready to walk into the garage, the biggest BOOM of thunder shook the windows. It was very fast moving and so off we went in a very light sleet (not cold enough to stick). Can you believe for the first time in years we got everything on our list. Now, it cost us a pretty penny but the shelves were full.
Thanks for the Anniversary wishes! We have just had the best time together this past week... Well, OK most days for the past 42 years. He makes me laugh every day! We are truely
Please share your smile and choose to be happy and content with where God has placed you today.
Good afternoon and wishing you a good day. Its a breezy and chilly Monday here. I loved last week where I didn't have to wear a jacket to go anywhere. It was nice and warm all week until yesterday. Now its going to be cold all week. So much for feeling like spring time. Oh well, that is what it usually does this time of year. And I noticed that I have tulips coming up. Well take care my friend and enjoy your day. Cheryl
Yesterday turned cloudy and windy. We covered plants and moved others in the garage. I took this picture this morning to cheer everyone up today.
Then I ventured outside into the cold just long enough to get this dreary wintery picture and thought next week we will be on DayLight Savings time. Woo Hoo! It will only be 5 am instead of 6 am. As I was coming back in, I looked at the calendar... 42 years today we have been married. We both forgot. Glad I remembered before friends started reminding us.
So now it is after noon and I still don't have any groceries marked off my list. Even worse, I had a call this morning and agreed to work tomorrow at a different office in Rockwall. What? got into me? Since the weather is cold and damp (drizzle not reaching the ground), Hubby talked me into waiting until Wednesday when the temperatures will be warmer. Ok, he twisted my arm.
Maybe the wind won't be as bad by then either. So now I am off to find lunch in our kitchen... by chance did you leave something there? Well, I am sending Blessings and Hugs to you no matter.
Wishing you a good morning and happy Sunday... Hope you are doing well. It was a bit chilly here this morning in the 20's, and now the sun is shining bright and the thermometer moving to the upper 30's. Should get in the 50's by afternoon. Looking forward to Spring which is right around the corner. Time seems to be flying by. Anyway hope you enjoy your day and have a great week... Take care and stay safe~~ hugs, debijo
Surprise! I didn't get everything done on my list... yet. Thursday, I never got dressed... that's right! But I got laundry done and my nails changed.
Guess what color? OK, it is an orange shade with glitter. Anyway, on Friday my hubby had an appointment with our Neuromusculoskeletal Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy doctor (mine was for next Thursday) but they had a cancellation and she saw me right after his appointment (we both go in together anyway). By the time we picked up our bulbs for our makeshift greenhouse from the wholesale distributor and back to Rockwall it was past lunch time so we ate at the Cotton Patch. Next we were 6th in line of all 8 lines for gasoline at Costco. Then we had 5 things on our Costco list and came out with 10 things. By then we were tired and sore from the doctor so we went home. Since we don't go to town on weekends unless something major happens, we will finish our list next week. However, rain and cooler weather is heading our way again but it shouldn't look like this...
I hope! hehehe We both are feeling much better after Dr. Carey manipulated our entire body. We are both walking better, standing straighter and hurting much less. So... are you ready for a race? I win!
