We are blessed to have a beautiful home with exercise equipment in the basement and plenty of access to the web with its constant entertainment and education streams. All four of us are a little stir-crazy, but we continue to remind Copper and Penny that winter doesn't last forever, and it won't be long before they'll be back to shrew-hunting and neighbourhood walks / sniffs.
In the midst of this, I continue to step up to the challenge of taking a photo a day. So... for your viewing and reading pleasure... here are daily tidbits of the past three weeks.
6 - Happens Everyday
 |
| "Got some love-ups for me, Mom? And, say... what's that on your plate?" |
7 - Upside Down
 |
| This winter's first attempt at bird feeding. They emptied it in two days. I saw chickadees snatch three seeds in between the squirrel feasting. |
8 - Lucky Number
 |
| The winner's wall of the Heart & Stroke Foundation's calendar lottery. We haven't won yet, but the year is young! |
9 - Natural
 |
| The challenge of keeping 55 yr old hormones balanced includes freshly-ground flax seeds. Yum! |
10 - Manmade
 |
| It also includes regular exercise! Love to hula-hoop with the WiiFit. |
11 - Looking Down
 |
| Watching the Seattle Seahawks beat the San Francisco 49ers for the NFL championship and the last step before the Superbowl! (So much easier to see the plays from this perspective than from the sidelines.) |
 |
| Looking Down #2 - Where did all the spinach-artichoke dip go? |
12 - Colourful
 |
| My purse and winter coat. "When I am a middle-aged woman, I shall wear purple!" |
13 - Makes Me Smile
 |
| So much for being "squirrel-proof"! |
14 - Three Things
 |
| Wow! It warmed up to over 0*C! |
 |
| Two sets of three wings to warm me up: hot and dry Cajun. Yummy! |
15 - Black + White
 |
| Had a delightful and far too rare visit with my darling friend, Vickie who just happened to be wearing a black & white top! |
16 - Sun
 |
| WHEW! That is one bright star! |
17 - Tiny
 |
| Wee angels keeping my galfriend safe. |
18 - Happy Place
 |
| Gourmet food with fabulous people. Happy Birthday, Nadine! |
19 - Breakfast
 |
| More yumminess to start the day. |
20 - To Do List
 |
| So grateful for my Outlook calendar! |
21 - Blue
 |
| Bright blue and OH SO COLD sky! |
22 - Nice
 |
| Happy plant life in the front window: my indoor garden. :) |
23 - Bedtime
 |
| ... at three thirty in the afternoon. |
24 - Your Space
 |
| Penny, the great sweatshirt and rocking chair usurper. |
25 - A Taste of Winter
 |
| They emptied the bird feeder, but it's still freezing out there, so... (OK... I'm a softie.) |
26 - Fun Stuff!
 |
| Road trip to explore cottage country properties. Beginning to visualize the dream. |
