6 more weeks of Winter!

As I was about to do this post, the sunset caught my eye. How pretty the pink tinged sky is. (5:15 pm at least the days are getting longer!)





This was the sky at 11:00. Nice and blue- the groundhog definitely saw his shadow.








The temperature this morning at 11:00 was -12. Yeppers... COLD! And we can expect these temps for another 2 1/2 weeks.








This is the hoarfrost on my honeysuckle bush.













And another meme:
Here's the deal:

1. Go to the current book you're reading.
2. Go to Page 161.
3. Copy down the 5th sentence.

It was a good offer; Stephen hoped they could get the job done today.

And since I am not that far into the book, haven't the foggiest idea about what is being talked about! The book's name is The Rescuer by Dee Henderson Book 6 of the O'Malley series. Dee Henderson is an author of Christian Thrillers.

Because people are interested in when all this snow will melt- there will be weekly yard pictures until all this white stuff is gone. What an excellent idea for a contest... Will be thinking of the rules for that one.

Another first this week was, Athena has hairballs really bad and has diarrhea. I know that's gross- but stay with me. Well she kind of missed the litter box and went on the entryway floor. So the putty knife was utilized to pry the frozen poop off of the cold plywood floor.

Stayed home today and found a missing box of 3T clothes for Bumpkins. Went through all of her dresser drawers and closet am now parting with a 1/2 full bag of 18 mos to 2T girls clothes. That is one large box gone and a small rubbermaid tote to be reassigned. Yeah! clutter busting! Last night, I found a shirt Bumpkin's got for Christmas and after washing haven't seen since.

Saturday Sky


Very strange weather today. Went to Soldotna and there was blue sky, sun and beautiful mountain shots (DH didn't really drive around to get a good shot). Then we went back to Kenai and it was cloudy and dark, got this shot of the mountains (they are there somewhere) on our way home. The picture is overlooking the Kenai River w/the canneries to the left.

Thing Two came home today, and already there was DRAMA! He grabbed the wrong bag at the airport and then his took 4 hrs to arrive. Thankfully no one else picked up his bag, all of his Christmas gifts that he received while in Seattle and almost all of his clothes (not to mention bank account info and passwords) were in it.

Bumpkins has an imaginary friend named W. And my sewing machine isn't broken! I can sew, while I was waiting for my machine to be looked at..... I found some more dpns. Size US 8- not what I need for Kazul's gift though, read the yarn label and US 15 are needed. Where am I going to find inexpensive US 15 dpn's here in this area? Oh well. I will think of something.

Today was spent shopping for food for school and work. Life goes back to normal next week.
