I enjoyed your awesome nature photos this evening.Thanks for all my nice hugs today. Have a good night hugs to everyone-Stephanie
Thanks for sharing your day & beautiful nature pictures. I have some to share. Football! Hugs! Brooke
Hi Chris Sounds like a really fun day. I finally got our Christmas tree down and just doing that little bit made me really tired. I guess I just don't have all my energy back yet. John also has the football game on. I made hot sausage sandwiches for him today. I can't eat hot sausage so I made cabbage soup for me. It is sooooo good, cabbage, carrots, potatoes and ham. I was hungry for it and it tastes really good. It has been simmering all day and so it really tasted good at supper time. Really cold here today as well. The temperature never got above 22 degrees all day. There is a slight wind blowing as well so that made it really cold out. The southern part of Pennsylvania is getting a major winter storm starting tonight but thank goodness it is going to miss us this time around. John and I went out to the church and I finished decorating for January. I just got to sick last weekend to finish it. John said it looks really nice. Feeling a little better each day but still get tired really fast. I guess it will take a while to get all my energy back. Gotta run. Love the nature pictures. We have some bluejays visiting the feeder and they are sure noisy!! But like them anyway. AT least we have visitors to the feeder. Have a great night--HUgs--Debbie John Mya Abby and Allie
Hi Chris...Glad to hear that you had a nice shopping day with the entire gang. Hope you enjoy watching the games. The nature photos are really nice, as always. Love and hugs.
Sounds like quite a peaceful day. I just realised, I’m only 5 hours ahead of you now here in England, and we’re both in winter now! No snow here yet though, but temps are between 0 and 8 celcius. It’s supposed to get cooler next week with maybe some snow. I hope your Sunday is going well. I’m having a relaxing day, resting. xx
