Finally Did It

This is the chair that we thought about buying for more than a year.
Now that it is ours, I think I want another one!
The cat really likes it when I sit in it. He jumps up and makes himself comfortable on my lap.
The dog does not like it when Steve sits in it, as there is not enough room for the both of them.
Hmmm...I wonder if they make one big enough for Tucker.

(In case you are wondering, that is Pia looking in the window.)

Winter?



This picture was taken last week. In winters past I would only see my toes when it was time to bathe.
I have seen my toes frequently this winter. On this day it was warm enough that I wore flip flops to an evening appointment. While the calendar may say February it felt like spring.
Then it got cold, really cold. Strong winds made it even colder. I didn't post this picture because it seemed silly when it was so cold out. As of yesterday it is back to being very warm for February and my toes are again visible.
Some people (in this house & elsewhere) are really missing winter. Not me, the warmish days, the beautiful blue skies and the toes that are only cold when I walk outside in my bare feet make me smile.

Weekend Fun

What do you do for fun on a winter weekend when there is no snow to speak of and the 'slopes' are covered in an icy granular mixture the reminds us of the Pocono's in the late 80's, been there/done that - yuck.

Bowling works for us.

Winter Arrives...maybe

Yep, the outside temperature says 9.
That was back in January when the temperature was either 50 or 10.
Sometimes it's snowing, sometimes it's raining.

 Now that February is half over it seems that we might actually be experiencing winter.
