enjoyed a quiet day at home… finished unpacking, did laundry, napped and watched the US Presidential Inauguration off and on throughout the day… having a lazy day reminded me of this picture of the girls with our menagerie…

every day we received a new creation on the bed…

had a good visit with my BS friends and am getting ready for bed…

missing my beloved today… it would have been nice to have him to chat with about all the activities of the week…

last night when the kids were here they made sure that my garbage and recycling were taken out, as well as snow blowing the driveway so that I will be able to get the car out…  a large amount of snow came down while we were gone…

lots of snow… but a beautiful sunny day…

very happy that I’ve taken these few extra days off so that I can recover and be full of energy for work on Wednesday…
