The blizzard has moved east.
We received 12.3 inches of snow.
It is bitterly cold but it is sunny.

The forced bulbs bring cheer to the living room.
I am so glad I did pots of them for February flowers.


I checked on the birds first thing this morning.

They were fine.


We have had hundreds of birds at the feeders.
They are good at waiting their turn.


I think the birds are beautiful.

The groundhog saw his shadow
at my house.

I shall wait for Spring.


I made candles this morning
with the left over pieces of candle wax


I have saved this past year.



I am always making something.
My kitty pillow I made many years ago
from some pretty rose chintz a friend gave me.



I brought up the dress my Mother made for me
when I was 13 years old.
She painted roses on it.
I treasure her talent.
