And the snow…

did come and I really am a bit tired of it.  It is 22 degrees now with light snow but the wind has died down so it is not blowing around as bad.  I am going to try and catch the guy that will be here soon to blow the sidewalks clean and use my best I am a poor old lady look to see if I can stop him from blowing the snow against my tires. 
 I am heartened by the fact that it is only 43 days till Spring!
 
My internet service was down yesterday for most of the day.  I was on the phone with a tech guy for about an hour trying to fix the problem.  I am telling you that my bones protested the up and down and unplugging this and that and plugging it back in and changing the surge protector plus my tri-focal glasses were getting a work out.  I wasn’t able to visit you all yesterday but I will try to do so today.
 
While my internet was down I did manage to run the vacuum and get the kitchen floor mopped.  I never did bake a cake as I found some brownies in the freezer and I had my ice cream with them.  The chili was very good and I will have another bowl for lunch and freeze the rest.  I am going to clean out the freezer today too.  That is my number one priority as I am not even sure what I have in there.
 
One of the things that I miss the most after selling my home was the garden.  Below is a picture of the garden we had.  Growing on the the fence was pole baby lima beans.  They were wonderful.  I used to freeze many packages of them each summer.

I am not sure what I am going to do today as I am stuck inside.  The temps will be dropping all day and we are under a wind chill warning for the next few days as the wind chill goes way below zero again.
 
I hope it is warm and sunny where you are.  Stay safe and be happy!!
