in an effort to save a few dollars I turned the thermostat down a few days ago as it had gotten warmer outside…

since then it has cooled off again and it has been chilly in the house…

good thing I have a Smart Home… although it could be smarter;-)…

all I had to do was open up the Nest app on my phone and raise the temperature… didn’t even have to get up from under my blanket…

let’s hope it gets warmer and stays that way…

I’ve finished all the new books I had and was trying to decide if I should start rereading an old one…

I thought I could read something on my Kobo, but couldn’t remember where I put the charger, lol…

but then I decided to download the app onto the tablet which I got with my last iPhone and haven’t been using…

the bonus was that I had purchased a number of books which I hadn’t yet read… and by some of my favourite authors…

I’ve spent a good portion of the day cuddled up under a blanket in the living room reading, as the snow fell…

time with friends… had a wonderful afternoon with a very crafty group of women…

there was knitting, colouring, collage-ing, crocheting, eating, drinking, and lots of conversation…

my project…

it is going to be a blanket for my bed… I worked on it while I was there and when I got home…

this morning as I was crocheting away I realized that it was way too long, sigh… would have been great for someone seven feet tall, lol…

so I unraveled it and started over…

this time it will be about four feet wide which should work nicely on the bed…

back to crocheting;-)…

during the night snow fell and blanketed the neighbourhood…

it is a lovely sight to wake up to such beauty… and it always seems so quiet and peaceful…

here’s the view from the front of the house…

the reflection of the tree in the window is cool… and I like the glass ball in the bottom picture…

the back looks like it has a warm white blanket over everything…

thankfully it wasn’t deep, so I didn’t have any trouble getting out of the garage…

I like to be the first one to make tracks in the snow… although I also like when it is all clear, lol…

and finally this view from the front steps… I actually went outside and left footprints in the snow so I could get this picture…

wonderful start to the week… hope yours was as lovely…

I have been in complete awe over the last few days with the beauty and wonder of nature…

  
yesterday morning the world was covered with a thick blanket of snow… kept going from window to window looking out at the wonderful views…

  
the snow clung to the tree branches and bushes… 

 
as I was getting into the car had to take out my camera and get a picture of this…

  
my neck swivelled all the way downtown as I admired the gorgeous views of snow in trees… 
this morning it was still there…

  
and again I couldn’t get enough of it…

  
the trees across the creek were still stunning in their beauty…

  
walked down the street a bit so I could take a few more pictures…

such an exquisite couple of days… holding the beauty close…

looked outside this morning and saw such beauty…

everything had been covered with a blanket of light fluffy snow…

luckily I didn’t need to leave home… always so much more beautiful if you don’t have to go out in it, lol…

this afternoon my grandson came over and shovelled the sidewalk, driveway and back path…

he did a good job and then came in for hot chocolate while we waited for his mom to pick him up, when she got off work…

a friend stopped by a few hours later and there was more snow on the ground… we went out for supper and while we were visiting the wind was blowing the snow around…

wonder what it is going to look like in the morning…
