1/10/25Do you focus on life's positive or negative?  Whichever you focus on becomes your personality.

    Yesterday was a quiet day.   Very cold and windy outside, a bit chilly in the house even with all stoves on high.  The temperature did moderate a little, the high was 24. Strong winds meant fewer birds.  Most of the ones that came flew into the Christmas trees.  The little birds would fly out for a seed and fly back into the tree to eat it.  We made sure to run the water enough so it didn't freeze up again.  While I'm feeling bad for the plants, others are saying there will be less ticks next summer.  Doug rolled out two large round bales of hay down in the cedars for the cows to lay on out of the wind.

     Everyone seems to be over the flu this morning.  Maegin went to work.  Bekah and I will get back to spring cleaning.  Once the greenhouse fires start there is hardly time for regular cleaning, let alone spring cleaning. It may be warm enough in the new greenhouse to  work in there. In a few weeks it will be time to plant some seeds.

     May your day be blessed, Sally
