The kids have been out of school for two days, all on account of....rain! The temps just didn't get cold enough for snow, sleet, or ice. I'm glad! It's nice to have another break from the everyday routine. The guys stayed home yesterday, but have gone to work today. The temp is 32 and could get messy after dark. But it should warm into the forties tomorrow. Hopefully, they'll get home before it 'could' freeze!
I don't have any photos of snow or the girls, but I do have a few photos. I have been busy baking, just in case the power went out. And laundry. I thought I wouldn't have as much to do today, but I should have known better. I decided to grind some pork into Italian sausage for Spaghetti later this evening. I will do that when I finish this. I also didn't get my seeds planted yesterday, so I will do that when I finish this. I will show photos in the next post. The girls are coming Friday, so I will have photos of them as well.
Hopefully, this post will find all you my wonderful readers, safe, inside, and warm! I don't go outside when it's all messy and raining and cold! I take that back; except to gather eggs. Randy has been feeding the animals before he goes to work. The hens have been laying about three a day, and I have been enjoying eating them and using them to cook with.
Next week, I hope to be able to be outside a lot! The temps are suppose to climb into the sixties! Wow! Spring! I won't know where to start! One thing for sure: walking! I have missed walking outside, so much! My other exercises are working good for me, but I really miss my walk. Hope to hear from ya'll soon! Blessings from Bama!

| My husband can fix just about anything! He noticed water in the floor around the door of the freezer, and had me to remove most everything from it. Then he went to work. It was a long, tough job, and I helped. |

| Ran is opening and emptying the flour we ordered from Amazon. It was shipped just like this. No bag or anything! Even the UPS guy was surprised it wan't in some kind of bag. Imagine the mess if it had gotten punctured! |

| The reason we use this flour: non GMO. It's Wheat Montana, an excellent brand! |
