It has been raining and snowing off and on here for what seems likes days. It is snowing again tonight as I type this. It is supposed to snow again Wednsday as well. So, if you are short of precipitation out there, please take ours. You are more than welcome to it.
The temps are also down into the teens tonight and will get no higher than the twenties thorughout this week during the day. I am no cold weather warrior for sure. I am typing this wearing a wool watch cap and covered with a thick blanket. Snug as a bug in a rug in this nice warm house. That is more than I can say for many.
Yeah, it is uncomfortable out there, but currently I am comfortable here behind this screen. But would it be so bad to get a little uncomfortable? I don't think so. In fact I plan to tomorrow to snap some photos.
I am supposed to limit my cold weather exposure due to the problem with my lungs, but I cna cover my mouth and limit my time outside. The coughing fit afterwards will be worth the time outside. Being holed up inside all winter is getting to me and I've got cabin fever.
It would be nice to think Spring is right around the corner, but I think we have some more winter to go yet. However, I am ready for spring and some good weather and fishing time. My youngest son's girlfriend has never been fishing before and would like to go. So we said we would take here when it warmed up. The time can't come soon enough.
We also need to still straighten out the garage this spring when it gets warmer. Due to the cold and weather this winter, we just haven't got around to doing it. If I haven't mentioned it before, the garage is the catch all for the house. It is the stopping point for all things coming in and leaving. It has alsoo become a layover point for things that should be in the storage shed where we keep outdoor tools and such.
It will be a chore this time because it has really stacked up over the fall and winter. We need a good swift kick in the back end for allowing it to get that way, but here we are anyway. In fact it is such a big chore, I amy pay one of the neighbor kids to help straigten it up if my son is not available and has to work.
The yard and landscaping will need lots of work after this winter. Frankly we didn't give it the attention it needed last year. We have found out this last falll that the yard is infested with grub worms and they are killing the grass. It will need to be treated first thing this spring. Damn dirty grubs. But, I guess they are just doing what dirty grubs are supposed to do. They just need to do it in my neighbors yard, not mine. LOL
Well, that's it for this morning and my singing the winter blues and spring to-do's.
Thanks for reading,
Joe
