RAIN AND COLD

Sorry it has been so long since I posted. I have a Birthday Sunday. #83. Can you believe it? Hope to have many more. This weather is co changeable. I don't know if it is winter or Spring. Maybe we will have a little sleet and light snow tonight. The Goldfinch in our back yard are eating like crazy. What is that the sign of? Snow maybe. I am haveing yet another eye surgery on Monday. The October one did not hold up and I am going to have it over. I dread it because I am so limited for a while but if I must have it to save sight--so be it. Think of me that morning and Truman too. He has to do a lot of lifting and bending over for me for a while.

SHIVER ME TIMBERS11111

A saying our local weather man says. I think he borrowed it from way in the past. It is true and soooo cold. 17 degrees this morning and might snow and get even colder. I was just about to go through my coat closet and take some old, out of date coats to the Goodwill. Think I had better hold on a while? I kind of like it cold. Warm fireplace at night is nice. The birds are eating like crazy and that keeps me bust filling the feeders. Silver Sneekers was good yeaterday but tomorrow I wonder if we will have a class if we have ice like they say. I hope we do because I really enjoy it. Whitney--I think we need to move to Florida.

Well I must go and buy some water and soup. That is what we do when we panic about snow being expected. Not a bad idea.

Sweetly Be and stay warm.

LONG TIME NO-SEE

I have not bloged in a long time. Busy with so many things. I have had a wonderful Christmas. So much family time. It was good to have Linda and Joe for a few days. We have had the most wonderful food this year. Everyone worked hard to have a great time. The Chinese food the night before Ashley and Bryan left to go back to Boston was great. Back to snow!!!! That will be the norm for them this winter. I hated to see them leave but I am so proud of them both for all they do. They looked great. Wished we could have seen the Florida and Tn. grands too. It is great to have a family that like to get together. Truman was so happy. We uaually are headed for South Texas or Florida for the month of January but we sold the motor home. We have such fond memories of those trips. It was time to sell-we could not do it alone and we miss Cecil so much. It is cold and the fire feel good. So much football on today. I guess that is to be expected. I like some of it but I get tired too. I need something new to read. My new cookbook just makes me hungry. Silver Sneekers was good yesterday. I needed the exercise. My tree is down but I still need to put all the decorations in the closet. I should have done like the person who dumped their tree at the recycle lot and left all decorations on it. I guess they will buy more next time. My thing is that I love all my decorations so much that I could not throw any away. Sooooo my closet is full and running over. I must start getting rid of some of this junk.
