LOL! A silly pleasure watching that show. :) Have you never watched it? They start with 25 "hopefuls" for one bachelor (or bachelorette) and each week one or more get cut, until of course he or she must choose between the final two. It's a guessing game for us who will stay and who will go. LOL

JC, if you see the birdbath (with the green garden hose), just above that are my four goldenfinch sock feeders. If the sun ever comes out today, I will get a picture of them when they are loaded with 80 goldfinches. (Each sock will hold about 20 little birds at a given time.)

I lost several branches - and took a broom to clear some close to the house, and the snow is frozen solid on the branches. I have my police scanner on, and a lot of accidents are happening. This is our first real freeze of the winter.

Glad you are having a nice day!

For those who like to listen to a little romantic piano, this CD is wonderful background music!

Newell Oler ~ "Country Boy City Boy".


"Always On My Mind"

Disclaimer: My recorder settings didn't do this song justice. The CD is really soothing and pleasant to listen to. :)

Well, I can't say I was at all sorry to see Naomi go, but I do feel badly for her. At this point in the elimination process it is really heart wrenching to see how hurt they are not to be chosen. It is not a game for these women, or for Jason, at this point. And DeAnnas' return (next week?) adds a twist that is just plain cruel, IMO.

Yes, jaycee, you missed some good shows. This has been a good season I think because Jason is so personable. I am hoping for a 'happily-ever-after' ending with one of the three women (or four, if you include DeAnna.....NOOOOOOOO!).

Wow, yorkie!! It’s a winter wonderland! Do you normally get snow every winter or is this unusual?

Thanks for the continuing pings sorry I have not contributed much recently but as most people are aware I have been juggling work and visiting dad in hospital. He came home briefly and then was rushed back in with an infection etc.

I have managed to get a hole put in the front room wall so that I can get dad's bed into the living room in the evening so he can be with me until he is able to transfer into a chair without aid of the carers.

Here is photo of the work so far you can see his bed and the incorrect hoist provided by NHS loan department, they need to provide a correct hoist and a suitable chair before he comes home this time, as soon as I have more definite news on his discharge I will have to chase the OT Department who arrange this with the NHS loan department.

Bless your heart. That is a lot of work, but I know that it
will be nice for your Dad to be with you rather than being
isolated in a bed. I pray that he gets to come home soon. I
know both of you are worn out with hospitals!

Take care of yourself and please get your rest so you can
continue your vigil!

(((hugs)))

I Would Live in Your Love
 
  I would live in your love as the sea-grasses live in the sea,
Borne up by each wave as it passes, drawn down by each wave that recedes;
I would empty my soul of the dreams that have gathered in me,
I would beat with your heart as it beats, I would follow your soul
as it leads.

Sarah Teasdale
