had a lovely day on Saturday…

started with six beautiful hibiscus flowers smiling at me;-)…

my grandson texted to say they were going to pick up some groceries and a parcel for me so we decided to have supper together…

I had a good time making stuffing and mashed potatoes, cooking mushrooms for gravy, and getting a chicken ready to roast…

in between those activities I watched speed skating and a Christmas movie, lol…

when the kids arrived we enjoyed a great visit and delicious meal… then he shovelled the driveway, decks and sidewalks… I truly am blessed…

it is always a treat to spend time with them;-)…

missed post…

missed post, snow, sticky snow, texted, written and up

was talking with my daughter the other day and mentioned that I wasn’t feeling too great…

a few days later she texted me early in the morning because she couldn’t see a post on my blog for the previous evening and was worried that I might still be feeling poorly…

it does make me giggle a bit that she is using my blog to check on me… when I started I didn’t really have a plan to write something every day, but a friend commented on how she was using the blog as her Advent daily reading and so I tried to write each day… now it just seems like part of my routine…

not completely sure what the problem was… seemed to have something to do with the fact that I was using the desktop and my work computer to get the post written and up… and then I went back in and re-posted it a couple of times because it had a few little errors in it…

now I make sure that the posts go up before midnight so there is one each day… a couple of times I have worked late into the night and the post has gone up as the next day… I am trying not to do that anymore, lol…

lots of snow on the ground when I woke up...

lots of snow on the ground when I woke up…

this morning the ground was covered with snow again, and it snowed all day… beginning to wonder when spring will actually arrive…

snow stuck to the trees, was pretty, but needs to stop...

Shovelling…

shovelling, snowblow, texted

yesterday I texted my son-in-law to see if he could come by and shovel out to the hot tub…

I did something to my arm and haven’t wanted to shovel and make it worse so the one piece I usually do – from the back door to the hot tub so I can walk out in my slippers – hasn’t been happening…

occasionally I will shovel the front steps and sidewalk, but usually when the kids come over on Sundays for dinner, one of them will do any needed shovelling…

Crystal shovelling the neighbour's sidewalk...

I don’t have any pictures of Jeff shovelling because when he’s doing it I am often not here… like yesterday, when he snowblowed as well… now I have a lovely open area to get to the hot tub… and he even cleared a space out in the back lane so that maybe the garbage guys will pick mine up…

tonight, while I was in the tub I was thinking I might need to consider hiring someone so I don’t have to keep calling on them…

George did nearly all the shovelling, except when his health meant we had to hire someone…
