we went to Aquasize today… we were happy because we found the lockers that returned your quarter… I’d put all my possessions into the locker, before I realized that there was no safety pin on the key…

I had a towel above the locker, so I placed the key inside it and saved having to change lockers… when we left I advised the front desk staff and they will have it fixed…

and I wore my sandals for the first time… actually had on socks when we went but didn’t wear them on the way home;-)…

yay…

the sky was beautiful this morning when I looked out the window first thing…

a few minutes later I got another view…

the clouds were very interesting…

a bit later I watched geese flying low overhead as they headed out for a meal;-)… they were moving quickly and my phone was in my pocket…

but it is also great to just watch them and not worry about capturing a photo;-)…

the sky is so wonderful…

yesterday, we lifted the tarp and moved some of the furniture out from under it…

chairs for the table found their way onto the deck and the second wicker chair made it up there as well…

a couple of tables moved onto the lower deck and the butterfly chair moved across that deck as I continue to search for the correct spot for it;-)…

the tarp is still on the back deck and some of the remaining furniture is frozen to the wood…

can’t wait to sit back there;-)…

I was up late to watch an F1 race and got a notification from the doorbell camera advising there was an animal in view…

checked the app and spotted a deer, so I raced downstairs and watched a deer looking for a snack beside the cedar…

watched and followed it across the yard to the bird feeder…

and spotted a second one;-)… it was entertaining to watch their antics as they tried to get the sunflower seeds out of the feeders…

while I was watching, three more came into view👀…

such a treat to be able to watch them until all five headed off to follow the creek over towards the airport…

because I don’t pay for a subscription, the camera only shows the past three hours before activities vanish, so I don’t always get to see them, lol…

day-to-day…

just about every time I walk up or down the stairs to the second floor, I stop and look out the window…

watching the garden change from day-to-day…

maybe a bunny, a cat, solar lights, new flowers, squirrels, birds, so many changes take place if you take a moment to look…

this photo shows a few solar lights, one of which was under the snow, lol…

soon it will be green again… please🤪…

yesterday, I took some photos of the sticky note that is on the mirror at the front door…

in the summer it is often located on the front door so that visitors know I am in the garden;-)…

I took the photos as I was eagerly anticipating spending time in the garden because this is how it was looking outside;-)…

that was at 2:45 pm when I laid down for a nap… when I looked outside at 5:45 pm it looked like this…

and this morning, this is what I saw outside…

another giggle from Mother Nature, lol…

quickly…

Wednesday morning after I had my breakfast, I walked over to Ultracuts for a haircut… I had called and they weren’t busy so I moved quickly, lol…

it has been very icy for quite some time so I was a bit concerned as I wondered if the sidewalks would be clear… and, happily they were…

it was great to get the haircut because the last few home cuts were poorly done, lol…

ages…

caught a bunny in the garden this morning…hadn’t seen any for ages…

so it was a lovely treat… had to crop the photo quite a bit, lol…

there continues to be snow on the ground, but as the temperature is starting to stay above zero, hopefully it will continue to melt away;-)…
