    Good Friday morning all. Currently -12°C and sunny. I'm looking forward to the warming trend that weatherman has been telling me about.
    I'm off for an oil change this morning. March break has started so I'm sure my daughter will have some ideas for me today.
    Have a great day all :)

    It was 37 degrees when we were out today. It will climb into the 40's in the coming week but it probably won't stay there. This time of the year it goes up and down a lot. More snow for Saturday and Sunday, three to six inches to the north of us. Maybe we'll be lucky and get the three inches. There are so many huge piles of snow from what we've already had this winter. dooley

    Good Sunday morning all. Currently 2°C and raining. My dog walk was dangerous this morning ... all that packed down snow in the yard, on the driveway and road has been rained on and turned into a slippery, icy mess. It's amazing I didn't go down while walking!
    Today, I'm canning beans ... black beans and white kidney beans. That should take a good part of the morning, and then this afternoon finish my tax return.
    Have a great day all :)

    We didn't go out today. The car stayed in the garage. We rearranged some shelves and carried one set of shelves out by the recycle bin. Someone will come and get it. It's in good shape, just too big for our space. Room is less crowded now. Books are packed into boxes. Not sure where they will go yet. I have some I want to take to St. Vincent's DePaul. It's where I got most of them. I still have my cough but it's getting better. dooley

    Good Monday morning all. Currently -3°C and overcast with strong winds.
    Well, I got my beans canned and my taxes submitted yesterday, as well as all the laundry done.
    This afternoon and evening is going to be busy, so I have to make dinner early and get all my work done by lunch time.
    Tomorrow will be a better day to sow some seeds.
    Have a great day all :

    Hello.
    I have been off here for a few days as my monitor finally gave up the ghost. Today I picked up an inexpensive one and installed it. It is great to be back on here.

    I have been off most of the weekend, beginning on Friday when our internet died. It has been hit or miss since then with the provider evidently overrun with other outages. For now it seems to have come back on but you just never know. But since there are two providers in our area, we will soon have two internet choices in the house, hubby works from home and having a backup will be great.

    Good Tuesday morning all. Currently -5°C and overcast.
    I'm taking my daughter to the mall today. I figure we should be gone most of the day.
    Maybe I'll find a new garden center in our travels, now THAT would make my day great!
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Wednesday morning all. Currently -1°C and overcast. Weatherman calls for rain for the next 3 days ... that should take care of all the snow!
    We didn't actually end up at the mall yesterday, but shopped at a few different stores on 'the strip', including Winners and Costco. We treated ourselves to Starbucks, first time ever, and both agreed that it was overpriced and over rated. I'd rather head to our good ole Tim Hortons! Never did find a garden center to go to, but I'm sure my daughter would have protested anyway. Today we are headed to the rink for some mother daughter skating time. Maybe she can teach me a thing or two haha
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Friday morning all. Currently 6°C and overcast. We had thunderstorms overnight, and so the rain helped to melt some snow. Ditches are running fast this morning, and there is a good acre of water out on my front lawn. The Robins and Red Winged blackbirds are back, and the birds are singing ... oh how I've missed the birds singing!!
    My gardens are starting to melt out of the snow too, and I am starting to get serious spring fever. A few more days of mild temperatures and I should be able to start some clean up!
    I'm sure mother nature isn't done with winter yet, so I'm not going to get too excited.
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Sunday morning all. Currently -4°C and sunny! We haven't seen the sun for a while and it sure is nice to see!
    Nothing but housework to do today ... I think it's time to start that spring cleaning so when the weather is nice I can be outside.
    I have a mountain of laundry to do and lots of dusting thanks to the woodstove.
    My have a visit from my kids and grandson later too.
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Monday morning all. Currently -5°C and cloudy. The sun has been peeking though and that makes me happy :)
    My daughter wasn't too happy getting ready for school this morning ... she sure enjoyed her week off last week.
    Back to reality today.
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Tuesday morning all. Currently -5°C and sunny.
    I'm off bright and early and headed to the car dealership for some recall work on my vehicle.
    Probably do a bit of shopping before heading home.
    Have a great day all :)
