Sunshine and Shadow on Snow and Ice
After that temperatures took a tumble and now we're in the deep-freeze...12 degrees right now with a windchill of 0; the high is expected to get up to around 20.

Three birthdays were celebrated in the family last week. In a unique, first-of-it's-kind decision, grandson, Silas, opted for donuts instead of birthday cake this year. His mom had a great time hitting all the donut shops in an effort to come up with a great variety of donuts. It was a fun change and definitely something different!

I spent yesterday afternoon and evening sorting through and organizing dresser drawers in the bedroom. In doing so I removed an entire trash bag full of stuff to take to the thrift store. It always feels good to get little jobs like that done!
