 More raking for me today. I have a few daffodils by the South corner of my house that should be full bloomed by tomorrow. They always bloom weeks before any other.

Junie, that's sort of what happened here. Cool, rainy, then 80° all of a sudden. No in between.

I will look forward to pictures, Sunny.
We had some rain and some thunder.
The girls stayed with us for a bit today. It was fun.

I did have a good day. The garden nursery was open at the hardware store(for just trees and shrubs)....so I just had to look around for awhile. By the time we left to come home....it was snowing there.

Well, I got one full coat of paint on the ceilings. I had the ceiling painted a cream color so it might take 3 coats to get it back to white....lesson learned.

It is melting as it falls but it is still discouraging to see.
Off to pay the monthly bills and get a few groceries.

I hope your DH's illness is short lived....it might be harder on you than him. I dread the 'getting to the cashier' part of shopping. I used to hate the long lines, now I hate the receipt.

Yep for sure on the amount we spend. Yesterday, I needed some meat, and I had to replace some items I had to throw out when we lost power. I spent far too much money, that is for sure. (DH just found out what I spent at the grocery  ) Good morning.

Well, I was lucky there. The only meat I had to throw out was some bacon. In the freezer in the house, items were still crunchy and so I knew my chest freezer was good as well. But I pretty much had to get rid of creamy condiments, dressings, cheeses, and cooked foods that were in my fridge. But hey, at least I got my fridge emptied and cleaned out. As my MIL used to say, I got another job done.

Oh, yes...mayo and dressings are definitely on the throw out list. I weeded around and dug a new circle around my lilac trees, then mulched around them. I ended up cutting off new little branches last year with the weed wacker.
