Day One Hundred Thirty Three 2013

Keep your face always toward the sunshine - and shadows will fall behind you.

Day Twenty One 2013

Duct tape is a man’s best friend. And only a man would do something like this. Hubby Neil had the day off and planned on doing a little crawling around under the house, cleaning out our nasty basement. His equally nasty jeans have huge holes in the knees, and it was cold out, so he covered up the holes with duct tape. Nice insulation, but I’m sure it made for some sticky knees.

Such a gorgeous day! Not a cloud.

We decided it was a good day for a walk. The sun was out. The sky was blue. We didn’t realize how cold it actually was when we set out around four. Sun was going down by then. Long shadows. Short walk.

Chilly night = chili night! Oh yummy!  Happy Monday, everyone!

“We must accept finite disappointment, but we must never lose infinite hope.”

Day Seven 2013

Grandson Elijah and I stopped along the path to the house after school this afternoon long enough to snap a gratuitous self-shadow-portrait. The sky was blue and the sun was bright, stretching our shadows out on what’s left of the grass in the back yard. Not as cold today—another major plus for any winter day, but especially for a winter Monday. The year is already one week old.

Day Fifty Six 2012

Sunny, windy Saturday. The wind had a bite to it again today. Mother Nature seems to believe it's March already. Hubby Neil and I let the wind blow us once around the block. We did manage to make it back to the house, even though the sign said 'stop'. Hope you are having a groovy weekend!

Day Fourteen 2012

The snow has melted (mostly) and the temperature is twenty degrees warmer today than it was yesterday. Hubby Neil and I went for a walk around our neighborhood this afternoon, just before sunset. Beautiful day!
