Surprise Delivery ~ Just for Me


The birds are singing this morning.  What a nice thing to wake up too.  It sounds so peaceful out there.  It's a good day to let the ladies out and clean the coop too.  They will be so happy to be out and about today.  My 15 year-old opened the door and smiled, "it sounds like spring out there."  

Yesterday, I was just finishing up my lunch, when a van pulled in.  My Hubby surprised me with red roses.

Slip Sliding Sled


Where there is a will, there is a way,
my Mom always said.
I hauled my wood and chicken feed,
today in a sled. 

The funny part is,
that I almost fell.
But I saved myself quick
and all is well.
