The Good Day All Thread

Congrats Toni

 

It's was snowing here earlier but we only got some flurries and it quit. There is some sun out now so maybe we won't get much more if we get any more at all. We haven't had too much so far. Only that one big one. It's okay with me if we don't get any more. dooley

 

Good Sunday morning all. Currently -3°C and overcast.
Just came back from my morning walk, and saw several Robins! That means spring can't be too far away, right?
We are heading out as a family this morning to go see my little grandson. My husband and son haven't seen him yet. I baked the new Mom and loaf of my pumpkin pie bread, and the new Dad a loaf of my banana chocolate chip bread. That is their favourites
Then home to do some regular chores ... bring in firewood etc, and hopefully some BBQ'd burgers for dinner.
Should be a full day

 

Good Monday morning all. Currently -2°C and sunny. Weatherman says we are going to get a significant amount of rain later.
Going to be mild as well, with the high expected to reach 5°C today, and 12°C tomorrow. This leaves us favorable conditions for flooding and so there is a special weather statement in effect. Today I am going to prepare for being indoors for the next few days ... bringing in firewood, making sure my sump pump is working and my eaves troughs are clear. This would be usual weather if it was April! I'm going to enjoy a beautiful day before the rains start. Have a great day all

 

It was pouring here Netty... its coming. batten down the hatches.

 

Good Tuesday morning all. Currently 4°C and raining. It rained all night too, and the sump pump is running almost non stop.
There is a huge lake on the front of the property and the ditches can hardly keep up with the water. Our 'bus house' is 12" under water, and the water is almost up to the top of the bridge. There is usually about 4-4.5 feet of space under that bridge where that water is. Thankfully, our house sits well back from this area.
Catching up on housework today. Have a great day all

 

Good Wednesday morning all. Currently 10°C and raining. The water peaked yesterday, and finally the rain stopped long enough for it to drain off. There is still lots of running water, but at least the ditches are flowing again. We are in for a few more days of rain yet. I didn't get caught up on my housework yesterday, instead I canned some baked beans and pulled pork, baked and went shopping. Today I'd better get cleaning! Have a great day all

 

Good Thursday morning all. Currently -5°C and overcast.
Off to do my errands and shopping. I don't need much today. I'm also stopping to have a coffee with an old friend, which will be nice.
I can show her baby pictures, and I have LOTS
Have a great day all!

 

Good Friday morning all. Currently -4°C and overcast.
Yesterday turned out to be a beautiful, sunny day and so I spent some time outside and BBQ'd some pork chops for dinner.
Today, I will sort seeds for tomorrows seed swap and tidy up.
Have a great day all

 

Good Monday morning all. Currently -1°C and overcast. It was a busy weekend and so there is lots of clean up to do today.
Skating Saturday morning, and then the seed swap. I was a little disappointed with the selection of seeds there to swap, but it's all in the timing and mine must have been off. I did get a small package of blue hulled peas to try, and bought some beans and tomatoes from one of the vendors. A few more weeks and I'll be able to start sowing a few things. The weather has been so spring like, its easy to get carried away. I know that Winter isn't done yet though.
Lots of clean up to do today, and a little visitor expected this afternoon.
Have a great day all
