Febru-ugly Is Almost Over

Febru-ugly. That's what my Hubby calls this month. And, I must say, today is a fairly ugly day.  It rained last night; we need the rain, but I am tired of the gray skies, the gray trees, the gray state of my spirit. Will there ever be another day at the beach, feeding the fish, floating on my raft, soaking up that Vitamin D?

I didn't get much sleep again last night. I could blog  about that subject alone and have something to say 'most every day... But, who would want to read a blog about chronic pain, financial worries, and sleeplessness?  No, I will keep that to myself. Suffice to say, lack of sleep does not make a happy combination with gray skies.
Most of life is mundane for most people. Whatever  joy one finds, one must find alone with God - nobody else can provide this for you with some sort of magic pixie dust - it just ain't gonna' happen!
I am so-o-o-o ready for Spring. For a flower or two to poke through the earth and open into bloom. For the trees to have lime green leaves and various blossoms of pink and white and purple.
But, for now, I will plod on through my chores... And, as always, the sun will peek through eventually.

More Snow Pics

Azaleas,  "in bloom"
   I'm not going to say a lot.  Just wanted to post some of my fav pics from this morning.  I do have to say one thing:  I find it fascinating that snow is not white.  Take a look at these photos, and you will see that some of them have a distinctly pink look.  Or lavendar.  Or blue.  Etc.  None of them has been doctored by computer in any way... Yours truly wouldn't know how to do so even if I wanted to... Hope you will enjoy...
     Oh, and, by the way, the official weather report claims that we had approximately two inches of snow... Ummm... does anybody know where I can email these photos to let "them" know how much we really have??? 
Our driveway is just to the right of the hitching post sticking up... the "road" has tracks from one brave truck yesterday...  (this pic looks grey-blue to me)
Moxie and Beau... playing in the snow...
One happy dawg!
Ummm... never mind...


Crepe Myrtle, "blooming"  (this pic looks pink to me...)



Care to gather 'round the fire pit???


"Weeping Pine"  kinda' looks pink, doesn't it?
