we’ve had some rough weather over the last few days… they called it a blizzard, although not too much snow fell, but it certainly blew around…

as I was making my breakfast I looked outside and saw this squirrel, covered in snow, stuffing its face at the feeder…

it looked very cold…

a bit later, I took some pictures in the den…

the window was covered in sticky snow…

the blowing continued for most of the day, and finally stopped in the evening…

I see more snow shovelling in my future, lol…

sometimes…

been a rough few days… many reasons… waiting on test results… various changes around me… missing my beloved… mental struggles…

tonight I got a beautiful card in the mail…

great timing… needed a bit of a confidence boost…

and then I walked by the window and saw this…

there is always beauty out there… sometimes I need a brief reminder…

it is so easy to get caught in a downward spiral of sadness…

treat…

so excited this morning to see the moon out the window… made me jump out of bed to take a picture and I discovered that there was a planet just above it…  couldn’t decide if it was Venus or Mars, lol, but cool… this was a wonderful treat because it has been overcast for days…

a little later I got this shot of the sun shining brightly…


what a treat… wasn’t out in the garden for long but took the time to look out the windows to enjoy the sunshine whenever I could…

picked up groceries and made zucchini basil soup, which is becoming a staple in my house, for my dinner… it is so tasty and easy…

got the ingredients chopped and cooking…

  

within half an hour was blending it together…

  

enjoyed it with some lovely Tuscan garlic bread from Safeway…

 

walked into the living room and enjoyed this topper to the day…

 
now spending the evening drinking chocolate rocket tea and watching ice skating on tv… 

funny how the rough days make the ones that follow more special as you realize how wonderful life really is…
