    Either my computer has a problem or Facebook does.  I can't post anything on FB. I put the weather on the Country Junction page first thing in the morning.  This morning when I gave up on that I went out and threw sunflower seed under the Christmas trees where the birds were huddling.  Whenever they would try to go to the feeders a gust would come along and blow them away.  Especially the little birds.  Doug has been here with his big tractor and bucked us out.  Bekah has to get to the kennel to care for the dogs.  Jay is going to take her down.  If the kennnel's plow guy hasn't plowed out the kennel Jay will drop Bekah off and go back for her.  She'll have to climb over the snow.  The town plow is going by every couple of hours.  It isn't snowing but the wind is piling drifts in the roads.  I was supposed to get bloodwork done but I've put it off until tomorrow because the wind is causing whiteouts.  We are thankful the freezing rain didn't cause ice build up on the greenhouses.  And we are thankful the snow/ice totals were less than forecast.  I'm sure the schools are glad this is vacation week.

    Bekah is starting wave petunias and some other seeds today.  Next Thursday is the date for starting the fires in the old greenhouse.  The forecast says They can move plants from the house to the greenhouse on Sunday the 1st.

   May your day be blessed, Sally
