One sad afternoon, the check engine light in my car came on. As fate would have it, it just happened to be while Alice's car was with my friend, and Billy had an early morning at work. So, I was due to walk up to the school, to work. While super glad that was an option for me, I was even more thankful when Jennifer offered to pick me up on her way in!
Since it was only a half day, I was walking home in the cold, but that beats walking to work in the dark and cold for sure! Because I was on foot, I did get a nifty picture of the river, covered in goose prints!
On a particularly warm day, as we were driving down to the Cornishes, Billy rescued a turtle who was stuck in the far lane trying to cross the road to a comfortable looking pond.
I scored a garden wishlist item for 50 cents at a rummage sale in Kalamazoo. My mom and I made the drive, and it was well worth it. This is now my in-bed compost bin! I need several more of them, so let me know if you see someone tossing theirs!
I put some bread heels out in the bush, and the birds came over to check them out and get a snack.
The promise of spring, if not the temperatures to go with it!
I'm hoping for more and more beautiful days to get out and enjoy the weather. Billy and I walked the path near his work after lunch yesterday, it was warm enough that we were sweating a bit! Not much sun, but I'll take the warmth. Then today, it was a high of 36. = (
Fingers crossed that this is it for the 30 degree days!
later days
