spent a good portion of Thursday out and about shopping… I am getting much braver these days although I still wear a mask everywhere…

were in Home Depot and Rona, getting bits and pieces to fix a few things in the house… then we wandered up and down every aisle at Costco and picked up a few items…

our final stop was Safeway where I was able to obtain some flowering plants and a few bunches of flowers…

and everyone knows they make me happy, lol…

vehicles…

Tuesday was a very busy and rather exciting day…

around 5:30 vehicles began to arrive with boxes and furniture, as my grandson moved into the basement for the next while… of course, by that time it was snowing and blowing…

the empty space was all of a sudden filled up with stuff again, in a very messy way… yikes…

after all the stuff was brought in, we had pizza and wings to thank the helpers and celebrate the move being completed…

I was happy because I got a heart-shaped one, ate half of it, and saved the rest for lunch the next day…

sculpture…

someone built a very nice snowperson a few weeks ago and it has been happily sitting in the field across the way and I’ve enjoyed watching it…

recently, with the warmer weather, it has started to shrink a bit;-(…

and yesterday, when I looked out the back, I noticed this lovely necklace hanging from the bird feeder…

looks like a cool sculpture… wonder how it will look next…

up early on Friday to put out the box of pass-me-along items…

had to go back upstairs and get the phone to take a few shots of the beautiful moon…

tried to use my Nikon, but the battery was dead, lol… it is now sitting on the counter getting charged… I think I’ve hit something that is keeping it on wifi all the time which is why the battery keeps dying… going to have to do a bit of research to fix that😳…

so, the moon isn’t quite as clear as I was hoping for, but it does show how beautiful the morning was;-)…

good start to the day;-)…

excited to discover the spotlight on the upper deck is working again…

it had been covered with snow for many weeks and I was thinking it wasn’t going to work in the cold…

as I was walking down the stairs on Thursday night, I looked out and saw the light….

apparently the warm and sunny weather uncovered the solar panel on the top of it, lol…

makes me happy, although the camera isn’t out there now…

not like there are fish in the pond that need to be protected, lol…

scrunch…

this morning, I dragged the hose up from the basement, out through the backdoor, and into the tub…

last night I had a great time in the hot tub, but had to scrunch down as the water was rather low…

only took about ten minutes to fill it up… now we will see if it gets up to temp by tonight;-)…

tidying…

had a busy day…

enjoyed the hibiscus which surprised me with a new flower yesterday and is still blooming, cozied up agains the wall;-)…

ran towels through the washer, folded and put them away…

it has been crazy cold here, but the sun was shining as I shovelled the snow to get to the garbage and recycling bins and then took out a ton of stuff, completely filling the recycle bin… will need to remember to put it in the lane for pickup day, lol…

did some tidying as the cleaners are coming tomorrow…

as I tidy I always remember how blessed I am;-)…

vents…

went out on Friday and shovelled the sidewalk and the path to the furnace vents…

it was cold and blowy, but there was quite a bit of snow that needed to be moved…

didn’t take too long and there was a lot of snow by the vents…

glad I got to it…

I was surprised to see this on the garage cam yesterday morning…

it is a bit blurry, and at first I thought it was a cat, but then I recognized the tail…

thought these guys were gone for the winter, lol… although I don’t care if they come by when there aren’t any fish in the pond for them to eat;-)…
