Thinking Spring....

 This is what I am seeing...Only it's covered more with about a foot of snow. Can you see the town in the distance ?  That is Tipton , my hometown. I love that place.

Now this is what I am wanting to see. I am beyond ready for Spring. :):) I know a lot of you are also. Mostly, I just feel the need to get out and about. I think we may be able too in a day or so. I did stand on the porch yesterday and enjoy the sunset. It was a pretty one.
  Hope all of you are safe and warm. Be careful when going out. xo

This Wednesday....

This is just one drift around here today. I have shoveled to the mailbox...as if, the mail carrier will come today. Ted is snow blowing the driveway by the garage. I almost have our other drive cleared. We are to get a couple more inches of snow. Then it be nice and cold the next two days. Then more snow for the weekend. I know , I know, I am counting our blessings as we did not get the ice.
 I am praying for all of you who did get ice. I pray if you lost power, it isn't off long. Our roads are not good anywhere. I hope everyone will just take their time getting to and from their job, the stores, or schools. All schools are closed around here. Heard where the children's museum is closed today in Indy......so this would be a good time to read to the kids. Or watch movies, bake cookies, play board games.
  My girls and I would always play scrabble, or spill & spell, any of the word games. We had one that had verbs, nouns, prepositions, everything to make a sentence. You would shake it up , then dump the words, then form a sentence if you could...so funny. Some of those sentences were as if we were just spoke choppy English.
 Stay warm and safe today dear friends. xo

Dig,Dig, Dig.....

This is becoming our exercise program.  Digging out from big snows. One coming in today and going on into Wednesday. Today we will be filling the wood box at the backdoor. Having that box so close has been much easier than going back and forth to the wood pile, every time we need wood. It takes 6 wheelbarrow loads of wood to fill the box. We get it done in one workout.So that will be a bit of exercise too. Who needs a gym ? :):) To be honest, I would rather  dig in dirt and plant things, rake around the yard, ride a bike, take a walk...than dig more snow. Stay safe blog buddies. xo

I Just Needed These....

I felt like I needed to see some flowers today. Can't get out to the store to buy any.  We had a lot of snow on Saturday night, but we were lucky the wind was blowing . The neighbor boy off to school on time this morning, no delays. I think some of you need to get to the stores and get some supplies for these next two weeks. Hope Teddy likes peanut butter :):) Blessings to all you wonderful people out there, take care.xo Happy birthday mommy!

I Found Something.....

My goodness...I was playing around, and found some old photos. I am in shock. I did not even know I had this. This is a photo of my mom and dad holding my twins. So odd that I found this in a file on my blog. I find this odd as ,tomorrow is my mom's birthday !!!  I miss my mother and father so much.
  We got more snow...more than forecasted. I wish all of you a beautiful day. xo

Still Plugging Along....

My gosh, I can't believe how much I have to learn....not just in life but on this computer.LOL I need to start using my new camera and make files. Just learning more about windows eight is hair pulling. I have been trying to visit a few blogs everyday. I have really missed a lot in the month and a half, that I have been off line.
 The temps around our area are just a bit better, although it feels just as cold with the wind. We are to have some rain/snow mix tomorrow.....I pray it's not a lot of rain, with the ground froze through to china.
 Take care everyone, I'll be thinking of you and praying for you all to be safe.. xo

Hello Everyone......

Hi, I finally have a new computer and it's way smarter than me....which doesn't have to be too smart.:)  My computer died a terrible death right on Christmas night. Bummer. We have been snowed in so much, we couldn't even get to a store to purchase a new one till just last week. I have no photos to show or files to have access to. Hope to up to speed before Spring....Take care all my wonderful friends, I have missed you so much. xoxo
