Leap Year

I guess the last day of the shortest month is here! It did go fast and was very full.
The sun is shining this morning, but there is a light breeze making it pretty cold, but maybe it will warm up alittle. At least the snow is shrinking! I actually saw some green grass, some dirt and some rocks! Maybe spring is coming after all.
Gary is slowly getting better, still has a cough and has to use the nebulizer, but he is up and around and we went for a drive yesterday to get out of the house. So far I haven't gotten it and I intend for it to stay that way!
It's Saturday and I can't seem to lose the habit of it being the "Day to get ready for Sun-n-nday" so I need to start laundry and vacuum, and all that other stuff.
The good thing for the day is I will have Gage and Luke for part of the day while Jinger and the baby get some rest.

I'mmmm Back!

Haven't posted for awhile for lots of reasons but decided I needed to go ahead and do it today while I have a few minutes.

It was nice weather for a couple of days, sunny, fairly warm and the icicles fell off or melted so I could see out my north windows again. And then it has decided to blow like a hurricane every afternoon!! We had snow again today too, but not enough to stick.

I keep telling myself that spring will come, but I don't really believe it anymore.

Gary has been sick with the upper resp. flu stuff that is going around so bad here. He refused to go to the doctor, just used his nebulizer and slept alot for the last week. He had me pretty scared when his fever was high for a couple of days and he is still coughing like crazy, but he is still alive! Now Jinger and all 3 boys are sick too....yes, even the baby!!

My grandson wanted me to paint a dragon scene on his bedroom wall so I've been working on that for a couple of days. One to sketch it out on the wall in pencil and then today I painted it. He wanted some metallic paint so parts are kind of shiny, but he likes it. I still need to do the mountain background, etc., but I'll finish it up next week.

Then on the way home I saw these swans in the river and had to take a picture of them..so peaceful and graceful looking.

Now I'm going to go sit with my feet up and then fix dinner and watch CSI.
