Yes, we are getting more snow. They are saying we may get another 4 1/2 inches. The previous snow has almost melted, making a gushy mess in the yard. I am almost wondering if I should stone the underside of my clotheslines for convenience year-round. Then again I could just lay an extra piece of wood down to avoid stepping in the squishy mud. It's all worth it. With a large family, not using the dryer has cut down our electric bill tremendously.
Sunday's are a good day to curl up and watch Little House DVD's. . .
Or spend time crocheting Christmas gifts or hope chest blankets . . .
Or sipping tea, coffee, or hot chocolate . . .
Although the snow is now coming down, the chickens enjoying their time out of their coop. As a result of the recent warmer weather, they have starting laying a few more eggs.
Even the house cats were all fired up last week. While checking on my e-mail one morning, I kept hearing a crinkle sound. I forgot about it, and when I stood up to leave my chair, I saw the culprit. Tiger, my youngest daughter's cat, was carrying a skein of fuzzy yarn through the kitchen. He looked like a wild tiger carrying his "catch of the day" and was very proud of it. Jasper, another daughter's cat, took off with a chenille stem flower that my youngest made for me. It has already been dunked into the water bowl this morning.
I think we'll enjoy a few board games today, a few good books, and a lot of good conversation.
