We are having a thaw, what a mess. It just makes for icy areas that will eventually be covered by snow. Hip breakers.
We still have some snow. It was 36 F or 2 C eh! yesterday.
Lets call it five inches of snow at the snowstick.
I tried to work in the woodshop yesterday…tool troubles caused a hissy fit and a near melt down, I came in and collapsed on the couch. I am going to buy my very own Rotary Tool and smile when I hand back Far Guy his piece of crap junk that doesn’t work for me. He has no problems with it…when he is in the woodshop I just ask for his assistance. I know I am mechanically challenged…but still…why do some things have to be so difficult.
This is my after Christmas look at the wreath by the door. Rummage sale stuff.
This is another rummage sale bargain. I need to touch up the paint on the flowers and fix that poor birds leg. I know it is kinda Christmasy but I still like it.
HP is sending a box so Far Guy can mail back his computer. He is using the laptop for the moment. He has it hooked up to his monitor and says it isn’t too bad. We usually only use the laptop when we are away from home.
Cute wreaths! We are having a thaw and checking our sugar bush the sap is starting to run : Yay!!
ReplyDeleteWe had 70 degrees yesterday, a record high for the day. The old high was 68. Tom and I went birding. Still lots of ice on Lake St. Mary's but we saw a few migrating ducks.
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely wreaths! We lost about half our snow cover in this melt: 44 => 22cm!
ReplyDeleteYeah for a thaw and the end of that part of winter.
ReplyDeleteAnything in the small engines category is what drives me nuts...:)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it odd how some things are easy for one person to use but not another? A mystery. :-)
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be nice if it just kept on thawing and all the snow went and Spring started for you? I guess that's asking for a bit much....:(
ReplyDeleteWe have no snow left as this weekend has been sunny and warm 55F or 13C eh? the land is warm now to spring like here so far just don't know how long it will last lol ! Lovely photos and cute wreaths . Hope Far Guy's PC gets fixed soon ! Thanks for sharing , Have good day !
ReplyDeleteEgads! We have hardly had any snow this winter! Thank goodness. I don't need any hip breakers here! I love your wreaths. I need to make the rounds of the garage sales and see what I come up with.....wait, I need to have a garage sale and get rid of my junk first!! Hope you have a good week!
ReplyDeleteMelty mess, yes. But the ice is the dangerous part when it freezes again--like today being 21 degrees. I haven't used woodworking tools, so I would have no clue what I was doing. Using tools is a skill. Leah has it. I don't. LOL! I hope FarGuy has good luck with the laptop in the meantime. That's all I have anymore. My desktop computer broke down so many times Dagan took it away from me--ROFL! :)
ReplyDeleteI've had the windows open for 3 days now and the robins have left. I guess I was just a "stop-over" so they're on their way. Keep a look out! It's been in the 70's but now a cold front is coming. I love changes in the weather!
ReplyDeleteAll the melt and moderate temps are making me think about spring, though I know we'll have plenty more cold and snow for a while.
ReplyDeleteWhat a contrast this winter has been from last winter for you. We are having a record breaking wet winter, but very few freezing nights.
ReplyDeleteEvening Vonnie, I am a lover of wreaths, sweet bird one.Blessings Francine.
ReplyDeletePlease watch those icy spots. A broken hip is the last thing you ( or any of us) need.
ReplyDeleteBeen messy thaw here too, but now it's turning colder and more snow.
ReplyDeleteRummage sale. Two of my favorite words. Ha ha. It has been beautiful here for a few days. So thankful!!

Bummer. Computer problems are no fun. Especially with such a new computer! Hope they get all the bugs worked out before the warranty runs out!
