out with the old and in with the new

We used to feed the birds and the last couple of years we haven't bothered.  I used to take a lot of pictures with the Nikon and I don't do much of that either.  I used to do a lot of weaving to, and I am not doing much of that.  It is sad to see the things that I used to do go to the back burner. 

It is amazing how life's priorities can change.  Now I work a regular job, go to riding lessons, and not much of anything else.  I was thinking the other day that I really need to get back into weaving.  Now that winter is here it is hard to go out to the barn, being as I don't have heat out there to do weaving.'

The husband is gone a lot now, going to Florida, to Washington, back to Florida and if I am lucky, he might be home in the next couple of weeks.  They change the work schedule every time he turns around.  We really don't know for sure when he will get home.  I am beginning to not like that at all.  I usually don't mind a weekend not being home, but when it get to be 2 or more then I am not a happy camper!

Today is a typical Monday! 

Have a great day.

4 Wheels

This was the scene out of my jeep on the way to work this morning, THANK goodness for 4-wheel drive! It is now just 3 p.m. and it is finally starting to stop snowing!

I have to say it sure makes for a beautiful picture when the trees are all covered!

I am doing weight watchers with the daughter, we have been doing it now for 6 weeks and it is going great.  Takes some getting used to, with having to change the way we eat, but it has been worth it.  I will eventually learn how to adjust other recipes that look good so that it isn't too bad for us to eat.  I am getting the cast iron cooking magazine and I love the recipes in it, that is one of the things that I want to be able to adjust the ingredients in.

Hope you are braving the weather well.  Have a great day.

Yup, its winter.

This is what it is looking like.  We are now getting lots more snow.  Speaking of which, the husband is now in sunny Florida, while his family is stuck up in the snow belt. 

Got back from the airport trying to figure out why I couldn't tell the difference between high beams and low beams on the jeep.  I figured it out, LED.  I had frosty lenses and the fog lights had a build up of slush.  I now hate LED with a passion!

I know we all complain about the snow and the cold then complain when its hot.  I have to say that will never change.  So, on that note, I am defiantly tired of the cold and snow!  Just so you know.  I would move further south in a heart beat.  Not too far though.
