FOR TODAY Looking out my window… we are working on digging ourselves out after getting 28 inches of snow in the last day and a half, a record snowfall for us. I am thankful… for the anonymous person who used their dozer to plow out the KCAM parking lot yesterday while Scott was taking me … Continue reading »

FOR TODAY Looking out my window… it has been a beautiful day! Lots of warm sunshine (we got up into the upper 60s today) and a nice breeze. We’ve enjoyed spending most of the day outside. I am thankful… that three of my older kids have found jobs for the summer.  Matthew will be working … Continue reading »

FOR TODAY Looking out my window… I see lots of blowing snow. We’ve gotten a couple inches so far and it’s still coming down well.  I’m glad it’s not sticking to all the leaves still on the trees; they had just started falling. I am thankful… that we took the opportunity on Saturday night to … Continue reading »

FOR TODAY Looking out my window… it is clear, cold, and dark (6 ½ hours of daylight each day right now).  Daytime temps in the -10 to -15 range mean hockey practice has been cancelled the last couple days. I am thankful… a good visit from my sister Deb and her kids. The kids had … Continue reading »

FOR TODAY Looking out my window… sunshine and a light breeze.  We’ve gotten a good bit of rain the last few days, so it’s nice to see the sun again. While we have been getting a fair number of warm sunny days, the fact that we never put away our winter clothes is a testimony … Continue reading »

FOR TODAY Looking out my window… gorgeous sunshine that actually feels warm!  The kids have actually complained about the sunshine being ‘hot’.  ‘Yes, isn’t it great!’  Yet even after a few days of temps into the 70s there are still some stubborn snow piles hanging around. I am thinking… about how to expand the garden, … Continue reading »
