Today was a surprisingly warm day for January and a day to enjoy. It was too pretty to stay indoors so I tried to coax hubby in to going somewhere or doing something outside. Unfortunately, he wasn't feeling as good as I was so I decided to go for a walk at my usual spot. As I was getting ready to leave, Danny tells me to come look at the Cardinal in the back yard. It was nice to see this little fellow and this picture doesn't do it any justice at all. This little guy had such a bright red color to him but it's not showing in the photo, maybe because he had to zoom in so far?
My hubby had to gently open the door to get this picture and usually there is a cold draft coming through. Not today!!!!! I think honestly that is why we saw our little feathered friend.
Being that it was warm, I decided to take a walk. I'm determined to get off those Christmas goodies that found their way in to my tummy. It was so warm outside; I even opened the sunroof and got some fresh air. You see, three days ago, the weather was a total different story. Our governor even declared our state under a “state of emergency.”
the temperature at times was below zero and the snow that we had kept turning into ice at night. This made traveling very dangerous!!!! I know this is probably the norm for all you guys in Canada. But not for you Mr. Francis, with all of your glorious weather that I'm so envious of haha!
Today, there is hardly anything left.
After I got finished with my walk, I decided to head to the local car wash to wash off Mr. Grey (the name of my SUV). I hope I'm not the only one who names their car! Lol. Anyways, I think I will be here a while. I guess everyone had the same idea to get the salt and crud off their car.
Even at 5:48 pm, it is a balmy 58 degrees. It was around 65 degrees at about 2:00 pm. This nice weather also prompted me to do one of my favorite things….GRILL!!!! After the walk and cleaning the car, I sure worked up an appetite. Hot dogs and grilled chicken to finish out the day!
I hope everybody had a great Sunday like
