What a beautiful day we had yesterday at 60°! Happy Friday because even though we may not have as much sunshine, it should be 60° again.
Plants in the garage all got watered. It was so nice not to have the heater on in there as the door opens to the north wind.
Then we had to move the bricks along the bottom of the plastic to get to the temperature device to change the battery. All 4 devices got the batteries replaced.
You want to do it on a warm sunny day with sunshine beating down, not when it is below freezing and you don't know the temperature under there or when to turn the heater on. It was SO humid and hot when I lifted the plastic up. PERFECT for our plants!
We were being proactive since we know the arctic air is on the way (shiver as I type that).
For us life is good when it is warm and the sun is shining brightly and when all our plants are HAPPY! :)
The birds, squirrels & chipmonks are enjoying the warmer morning, scurrying here & there. I love watching them sharing the bird feeders. lol I'm doing chores (dusting, yuck), but enjoying a thankful Thursday. Same for you, my friend. *hugs*
Good Tuesday Morning! How about a ride on the beach with me today?
Of course it has to be someplace warmer than most of the beautiful graphics going around right now.
So for me, it is a good morning to sit and read all day long, like my online daughter, Jo, shared with me.
I can always just look outside to see the birds that love every season, even a snowy winter.
Or look over at the beautiful Amaryllis that loves to bloom inside during the cold winter days that are outside.
And I am blessed to be able to send Hubby to the mailbox to retrieve the packages and mail as I wait for his speedy return, fixing some nice Hot Chocolate and ...
I changed the pictures on my page to share my family from December. Then I thought I would share with you a screenshot of the video of my girls being pulled behind the SUV with the back open. My son, at age 56 last month, will forever be 12 years old. The girls tell him that he is not old enough to drive. They have done this for many years. They live on a dead end street now. They have been learning to drive since they had a small Barbie Car. Then as they got older, they would sit in his lap and drive. When they could reach the pedals, in winter he would take them to empty business parking lots when it snows and teach them how to drive in it. They are 16 (next month) and 17 years old now. Their Dad has made sure they have had fun their entire life. Quote, "Homework will be there later, come outside now!"
Drama on the deck. Let my dog Jasper out on the deck & noticed about 40 blackbirds in the bare maple tree. They were eyeing the hawk sitting atop the evergreen next to them. Hope your week is off to a good start!🌲
