Good morning Monday Tuesday…

and baby it is cold outside!  12 degrees, still windy and sunny.  I have been out and about already, to the pharmacy and to the grocery store.  Warm up due on Thursday to the 50s.  I am liking this winter so far, remembering last winter and the one snow after another thingy.  http://www.sj-r.com/top-stories/x545137894/Unseasonably-mild-winter-to-continue-National-Weather-Service-says

I have been keeping busy cleaning files and drawers and shredding papers.  Next on the agenda will be getting ready for the tax accountant.  I am always glad when I get that done.

I noticed today that the stores are ready for Valentine’s Day.  My favorite holiday since it is the date of my daughter’s birth.

I haven’t settled on the one object that I plan to photograph each month on the same day and at the same hour.  I think it will probably be the big tree close to the cemetery across from me. Maybe Thursday when it has warmed up to the 50s.

I forgot to mention as I do each time that I don’t like Monday holidays.  They mess the whole week up.  Everything is a day late in the week.  That said, You all stay safe and be happy!!

Whew, that’s done for another year…

the taxes I mean.  I went over them with the accountant yesterday and now they are in his hands.  I am hoping for a refund, but I am not holding my breath.  My daughter went with me and afterwards we had lunch at Grumpy Pete’s now the 8th Street something or the other.  The food was very good.
Now what do I have on tap for today?  First I should get the weather out of the way.  It is 18 degrees right now.  This is the first morning in a while that the wind chill hasn’t been below zero.  The forecast for next week is a string of 40 degree plus temps.  I am hoping it will melt off some of the many inches of snow on the ground.
My daughter is coming over in a few weeks and we are really going to do some serious spring cleaning.  It was so hectic when I moved in that I just put stuff away to get it out of sight.  We are going to clean closets and take the curtains down to wash.  I can hardly believe that I have lived here almost a year.  The time flies by so quickly.  I still haven’t found my second iPod.  I know it is buried under something.
I hope you all have a blessed weekend.  Stay safe and be happy!!
