WINTER FROST

I think the antibiotics are kicking in, thank goodness!! We are in for some nasty weather later today. 15cm of snow, high winds and low temperatures which means high wind chill factor. Meanwhile right now we are still in the Chinook which blew strong warm winds all night. Welcome to southern Alberta!! Where the weather can change in a blink of an eye!!
Over the next while I would like to introduce our critters....stay tuned!!
Have a Sunshine Day!! (at least until the nasty weather hits later)

WINTER BEAUTY

"A crisp winter's day with the warmth of the winter's sun, creates such Winter Beauty"


I love it when the trees are painted with frost!! This is a shot I took early one day before the frost melted away from the sun's strong rays. I have completed about 95% of our inside home decorations for Christmas, even thou I have been well under the weather this week. I hope these antibiotics kick in over the next day or so. I just stated them yesterday.
I still haven't officially started my Christmas shopping. Oh well, I guess I still have a couple of weeks to complete it. I absolutely hate shopping!! That is the type of shopping that involves the hustle and bustle of the large box stores, malls or just plain old grocery shopping. I do like to poke around antique stores, thrift stores, artisan markets etc., this is when I am not looking for anything in particular, but is when I usually find unique treasures. Well I think this afternoon a nice cup of herbal tea, a pillow and a blanket are in order. Have a Sunshine Day!!

WINTER WONDERS

I can't believe that it is already December. Wow, where did the time go this year? I also can't believe I haven't posted since November 14th. Oh well I guess time flys when you are having fun!!! Or renovating!!! It sure keeps one out of trouble. I guess I will be rather busy getting the Christmas stuff out and getting our home ready for Christmas this week. I am also gearing up to officially start our Christmas shopping. I will try to at least post one time per week. Have a Sunshine Day!!!
