As you can tell my birds are much happier! We didn't get any snow at our house. There was snow or snow flakes around the area and we ended up with about 1" of much needed rain. The birds are flying high and enjoying the sunshine. I hope you share your smile with those you encounter today and every day.
I have been a terrible Bird mama! One I don't like going outside when it is cold or a cold wind is blowing. Two I don't like going outside when it is dark by the time I get home from working (3 months). Three it has been so dry here again and with the hose rolled up and the faucet winterized the birdbaths were completely dry. Bad, bad, bad Bird Mama! They should now be much happier with water to drink and warmer temperatures for a few days. But Old Man Winter is on the way again. Come on Spring!
It is 42° this morning and we are getting a much needed rain. Our temperatures are supposed to drop and in our area we have a slight chance for snow flurries. However, the pictures are from our best friends for nearly 50 years, Julie and Tommy, in Lubbock. January 2, 9, and 15, they sent us pictures and videos of the Tumbleweeds that blew into their yard. Twice they had to pay the yardman to haul them off. I can only imagine the seeds that they dropped and what their spring yards will look like this year. Today they got snow in Lubbock. It made some unique and beautiful pictures... as long as it is NOT near our home! Enjoy your day and share your smile, no matter the weather.
Have you ever tried to teach an old dog some new tricks? As you can tell, we aren't having too much luck. Our groomer just up and left the country! So we took all four "4" of our girls to a new place and a new business that started a couple of months ago, Elms Grooming, in Royse City. They do have lots of years of experience and were wonderful to all our girls who came out with beautiful grinded nails and a sparkly scarf.
Yesterday we left home at about 10 am. Picked Wayne, my son, up at the airport just after 11. Then we went to two of the three of Michelle's, our granddaughter's, basketball games. They won the 8 am game and the 11:30 game but lost the championship game. We got to see our other granddaughter, Nicole, before she had to meet her class at school as they are doing the background changes for the play, The Addams Family. We had a wonderful lunch (all 7 of us) at Subway. We were back home by 5:15.
I came home with over 170 pictures from Wayne that he took while he was in Israel and over 25 videos from two of Michelle's basketball games. Also the most wonderful memories of a fun day.
Well, hello there! What are you doing today? Why are you hiding? Don't you know it is Friday? You should be jumping for joy! I know it is hard to concentrate but the weekend is almost here. Let's go do something fun.
What makes you tired? Does staring at the computer, the phone, the pad make you tired? Does a good workout make you tired (ok, I have no pictures of that)? Do you seem more tired after a day of doing nothing? When you see or hear someone YAWN, do you yawn too? I can just look at that picture and it causes me to yawn. Some days are just lazy days! I am thankful that some days are NOT!

We are still starting each day in the 60's and I like it but this morning is overcast and dreary. Sunshine, where are you? The sunshine makes me smile. So do you! Thanks for being in my life!
Winter, one good thing about winter is filling the freezer with lots of meat. Oh how I miss venison!
Another good thing is baking cookies... just to warm up the house. Oh how I like a nice warm house and HUGS!
OK... that is just NOT happening. I don't even want to go outside in the winter. However, we are 68 this morning and cloudy. We had terrible winds for a couple of days. Friends in Lubbock have Tumbleweeds piled up for the second time over 7' high in their yard. I know that winter is not completely over in Texas so I am off to make some tea or hot chocolate. Hope you are enjoying Winter!
