        Darel was comfortable but very quiet yesterday with a high pulse on one side and a low on the other.  He is trying to walk around the house more so that he doesn't lose any more strength.

        The front room where Darel is is warm, the rest of the house is sixty, cooler in this computer corner.  And we are blessed to be warm enough, many aren't.  Others are wondering how they are going to pay for being warm.  Farmers are struggling to care for their animals.  I remember battling frozen pipes when the cold winds blew.  Prayers for the mailmen who deliver mail on foot,  lineman dealing with power outages, firman who get called out to fight fires.

        I took the tree down and Andrew put it out by the bird waterer.  The juncos liked the new tree with branches thick enough to hide in.  Andrew also hung up the extra chairs and bought the plant tables back in.  Every three-four hours I gave the chickens hot water and threw down some scratch, not much else i can do for them.  Other wise I worked on redoing the County Junction mailing list.

       Have a good day, Sally
