Can Somebody Say SPRING

Last night we went to check on the COTTAGE across the county line.  As we drove back to our Prairie HOME, moisture was spitting and the windshield began to freeze.  A little here and a little there.  I was tense.  THANKFUL to be HOME.  Situations like this make me appreciate having a warm place to stay called HOME.

Late evening at HOME was a welcomed place to be.  A fire going in a fireplace would have been pleasant while sipping HOT CHOCOLATE.  Picture perfect image.

This morning once again the ground was frozen and covered with icy snow.  Grey skies and chilled.  STAY HOME.  Once again the Public Library is closed due to inclement weather.  Yesterday I did phone to see if I could order a book to borrow instead of buying it.  Is on order.

If I love it and just have to have it on my shelf then I'll purchase one to keep.  I've been wanting to read this book for a few years and just hadn't gotten around to it.  

Victorian Secrets: What a Corset Taught Me about the Past, the Present, and Myself

Book by Sarah A. Chrisman

Also asked the Librarian if they'd get Sarah's other book 

about Victorian Life.  Maybe later.

Beautiful Corset

~ON THE HOME FRONT~

I finished this round of sorting through my in-laws pictures.

ROUND ONE.

More pictures to come.

I'll need to get some envelopes and boxes

for mailing pictures to my brother-in-laws.

My childrens' will be hand delivered.

It's sobering to see all the pictures of my Husband's Parents when they were so young and progressing into mature elderly people.

There's a sting to it.

I decided to go through the pile of magazines that I have kept and thin them down some more.  This truly is a time to downsize and clear out much clutter.  More to do.

A large plastic tub with paperwork has been waiting for me for nine months.  I just moved the box to the side of my easy chair so when the tele is on I'll be going through more papers.

Multi-tasking galore.

When I get this Living room tidied,

then HOPEFULLY the Office/Doll room will get a make over.

It's waiting for me.

March Project and beyond.

Striped the guest bedding.

Laundry in the works.

Waiting for better weather to trudge through.

WE ARE ONE DAY CLOSER TO SPRING.

Counting the days.

What do you do during the months where you are not able to be outside everyday?

Right now, it's paperwork.

Be blessed,
