IT HAPPENED

 Well, it happened. As soon a I turned my back, BAM!!!  Cold weather returned. Way down here. Way down here in the South. Down where we were already thinking Spring had sprung. Of course, we knew it wasn't really spring yet. But we had some 80 degree days. Daffodils are blooming. Hyacinths are up and budded. It sure seemed like Spring was here. But we are rolling with the punches. Enjoying a nice, cozy fire, food that warms, quilts and blankets. Nothing better on a cold day. 


How about you? Are you still shoveling snow and staying indoors by a fire? I hope you have a great week, take care and keep warm!

  1. It hasn't even got as cold as it will for us. I have hesitated to buy wood for my fireplace this year. Yours looks super cozy.

  3. Here in Michigan it has just been snow and more snow, and now they just extended this winter storm warning for another day! We've just stayed in today! And the rest of the week is supposed to be high temps under 10 degrees.
    Hurray up Spring!

  6. Definitely know what up in winter weather in Northern ohio. Only 4 inches of snow but it was on top of ice again. And now this morning it is 3°. And it's going to be that cold every night until Friday maybe. However we had some time yesterday and we have sunshining coming again today. Your fire does look cozy.

  10. I'm sorry to hear that the weather turned on you and I hope it shifts again in a warmer direction, Leslie. Unfortunately, we can't depend on Mother Nature being predictable. Best wishes for some early spring blooms in the near term!

  11. I have a fake fire on streaming. Sounds and looks pretty. No heat. Still, I'll happily take it. Lost power this weekend. Back on today. Fingers crossed.
