Thank you for those wonderful cookies. The jam in the thumbprint ones kinda stuck in the fax machine, tho. But, no problem - that’s what furry kids are for. LOL!

Cutie pie, of a colt!

Merry Christmas!!

Marissa has a dental appt at 11:00. I'm feeling a little better. Am no longer sneezing but am still coughing and I have a sore throat.

After the dentist, I'm going by See's Candy for a couple of gifts.

I slept yesterday afternoon and plan to get another nap this afternoon. Hubby cooked last night and is cooking again tonight. YEAH!!!

Thank you for spending time on the thread yesterday and again today.

[Majie Purple]

I really like that under the weather feelin’ hen! Nice Job,Billie, as usual...
:)
Hope Your feeling better though, Amy!

[Majie Purple]

Still snowing, I did get the snow cleared off the feeders.

[Majie Purple]

((((Lovely & True!!))))

[Mama_Bear]

Thank you, Maj. I would love to see a scene like that out my window, but, alas, it’s palm trees and Oleanders in my neck of the woods. I bet you are going to be having some pretty snow soon, if you haven’t already. I used to live near Oxon Hill, just south of DC, and it would truly be a winter wonderland after a fresh snow.

[Mama_Bear]

My goodness, you DO got snow! LOL.

Poor little birds. I suppose they are suited to that kind of weather, but I shiver for them.

[Mama_Bear]

Well, you are probably trying to do too much, as usual. You get better as fast as you can. Christmas is coming!

[yorkie]

My pansies are still blooming by the front porch - so I am pretty sure we haven’t had a good freeze here in AZ yet. But we will - and I wonder what will happen to the couple of hummers that are still feeding off the hummingbird feeder. How do those little bodies stay warm with the temps dip?

LJ, I love your feeders!

[Majie Purple]

Only one or two light;wateryskiffs thus far in my lil pocket -o- geography...Gone as quickly as it came!

Where I used to live, a friend just called for CHRISTmas,& He said, they are experiencing record snowfall...very rare to have it stick/and or/stick around There for so long but it is... and has snowed 4 days in a row...with more forcasted!

Glad I am not in that! Rare; record, or not...LOL!

Still, to have snow on CHRISTmas Day,at least, would be great!

Again where I used to live it rarely snows, so in my 10 years living There I only recall light snowfall for 2 of 10 CHRISTmases...

If I were still living There, seems likely there will be snow on CHRISTmas Day, this Year.

[Mama_Bear]

Do you ever get snow where you are? We get freezing temperatures, but only when it is clear. When it starts to cloud up it almost always warms up just enough so we get rain instead of snow. It snows here in the central valley approximately every seven years or so...and then it just dusts the ground before it melts away. If you blink, you miss it.

I've still got a couple of roses blooming, but they are looking pretty sad. I will be cutting them all back next month because we always have an early spring. By February we will start getting some warm days - that is always what we hope for, anyway. Even though winter is short here, it is never short enough for me.

Isn't it interesting that pansies like the cold? They look delicate but they are actually pretty tough little flowers.

[Majie Purple]

Happy/Hoppy Saturday! & Very nearly Merry CHRISTmas...<3... Day,a comin'!

That's why I feed them. I can't imagine how those tiny things surviving out in subfreezing weather.

That is one of the nicest photos of a cardinal I’ve ever seen.

No pansies here, just beautiful white landscape.
