Ice

It's been an icy week in the neighborhood. Things were pretty much at a standstill Monday. Today, Thursday the sun finally can out and the melting began. I took some pics. These are a couple of my favorites because the blue of the sky is reflected in the ice.





The Covington Boys were here just one day this week since Shannon was sick today. Here he is reading to his friends.


I got new stretchy pull-on overboots for over the top of my warm comfy snow boots that don't happen to be waterproof. However, they only had XL so I had to duct tape the excess 3" down over my toes. It's rumored that Red Green and I may share the same gene pool.


Shannon liked them and insisted on wearing Mamaw's boots ow-side.

Jack just watches everything, especially Shannon.

Birthdays

It's a snowy day in the neighborhood. It's 25 and it is snow-globe snowing.


The Covington Boys were here today. Jack loves his thumb.

My hibiscus bush had this gorgeous bloom for two days last week.


We celebrated Steve's 54th last Thursday. My class was cancelled tonight and Steve made it back from Omaha, so I guess we're celebrating my birthday tonight.


Here's the beveled glass oak coat rack mirror we finally got up Thanksgiving weekend. I found it on the curb a couple of years ago. Steve put a coat of varnish on it, John put the hooks and backing paper on and hung it.

Well, I'm up to 1mg of Requip this week (going up to 3mg at 8 wks.) and I'm not as tired as I was when I started, which is very good. I've got a bit of a cold going on with a baritone voice which hopefully will be gone in a couple of days since I'm being interviewed by pastor Jay during the services Sunday morning.
