Sadly, my Rosemary does not appear to have made it. I’ll try again this year.

I don't want to use my vintage blue-glass Mason Jars, but I'll bet I can find some interesting jars at our local Thrift Shop. :)

Very cold here too. Plus were getting a snow dump. They are saying 5-8 inches How’s Beau doing? Home from the hospital I hope.

It’s about 2 degrees right now; windy but sunny. I haven’t gotten motivated enough to shovel the 6” we got. Wet, heavy snow. Ugh! Just caring for the animals this week is going to take all of our efforts!

Beau hasn’t been having any pain and was very active, yesterday. He’s sleeping well. My theory? He’s already passed one stone, prior to even making it to the ER, just based upon the amount of pain he described having. He has another one to go, as one showed up on his MRI. Doc says he can pass that one, too, but I think it hasn’t broken loose, yet.

He’s stockpiling his meds for, ‘The Big Event’ and I have some horse tranquilizers that will put him under if need be. Or else *I* will be taking them, LOL!

So, so far, so good. I’m also predicting that he has his next attack once the temps hit the -12 degrees they are predicting for this upcoming week, and I’ll have to do all the chores myself.

*Rolleyes*

If I catastrophize it to the, ‘Worst Case Scenario’ then things never seem as bad as they could be, LOL!

‘Grand Funk!’ What a Blast from the Past! :)

You are tough you’ll make it soldier! We got 5 maybe 6 but if you check the radar for west Michigan the “lake effect snow machine” as it is called will be working the whole day. Snow predicted al day long. Hubby will be plowing once he has had his coffee and I made scratch cinnamon rolls (well from frozen bread dough - but they are mostly scratch). Another day I look out at the barn and am glad it is empty.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Yep. We’ll both muddle through. Cinnamon rolls sound GREAT this morning! I’m going to bake a Pumpkin Pie later; I’m in the mood for one. :)

[MomwithHope]

My sprouted garlic cloves are alive in their pot but very slow.

How many house plants can one have? My life partner isn’t happy with all my beautiful floor to ceiling plants. He finds them ‘clutter’ almost like he find the coffee table clutter. Sometimes I have to remind him he could be considered clutter as well.

My daffodils are peaking through the black mulch, here in Georgia. The birds outside tell me Spring is coming. Such a thrill.

[hoe_cake]

those are beautiful.
