Facing winter and slowing down on the job.

I have made a new year's resolution but I am having trouble getting started. It is to walk more; every single day if possible BUT it has been freezing rain here and another resolution I made was to fall less so as to not break bones so it has been put on hold a few more days. I will get at it soon.

Morning at the mouse-house ... a few hungry mourning doves arrive at the feeding station. I hate to see the feeders covered in snow and will get out there to brush it all off after my first cup of coffee.
But I can't get over the beauty of it all.




Looks cold, doesn't it?

And another 'duty' I must fulfill is to serve up the stinky goodness for someone who will, and did, fling heavy dishes off the counter when I wasn't quick enough.
The retired guy asks, "how does she do that?"
I say, "with a joyful heart."

"What do you want from me? I have needs."

It is beginning to snow again. Oh, it is beautiful to see in the trees and across the land so I won't complain today. Everything looks clean and fresh and covered in glitter.

Winter in Ontario is a long and arduous time that we Canadians pull up our boot socks and face head on. :) We are used to the cold but love to complain. Other than head south what else can we do?

Next post I'll show you another easy way to feed your birds. *cheap, cheap*

hugs, Deb
