Thankfully, the only damage we sustained from the high winds, was in the garden. The plastic we put down in our garlic bed was ripped up. I'll have to wait for a warmer day to fix.
What's your preference when canning jams - frozen or fresh fruit? I'm contemplating making a jam, but in the past I wasn't pleased with the end results of strawberry jam, using frozen. It was not as thick as using fresh. Maybe wait until summer?
I attempted my role as plumber, but failed. I could not wash dishes until Hubby was well rested to fix the pipe under the sink. I was okay with that, but hate looking at chaos in the kitchen. Dirty dishes everywhere, ha ha!
Sunday, not one, but two daughter's came out for a visit. Both stayed and raided the fridge, and made numerous pots of coffee. Both normal. Monday was a bit strange being home with no kids again. But....housework resumed. It's sort of like exercise for the mind.

Was windy here too, but didn't lose power or see any damage. Praise God!!!
Back at work 2 nights a week, 6-11. Other than the ride home in the dark, I'm enjoying it.
Prayers for a great rest of the week for everyone, and a safe one too.
God bless.
