Mixed Report...Of The Weather And Me!!

https://www.etsy.com/listing/89119665/winter-sparrow-photograph?ref=favs_view_1

      Hello from 'rain and snow mix' central! :-) Or as hubby and I call it, 'sleet meets mess' central! LOL...Do I dare go missing for days on my blog and then come back and talk about the weather?!.....Yes!...I dare! ^_^
      I'm not complaining today though! I told hubby that I was gonna pick a 'fruitage of the spirit' to work on today. (Galatians 5:22, 23 = "...the fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control.)  The one I'm working on today is self-control...i.e., I'm gonna control my tongue from complaining. Or should I say...that's the aim! :-)
      In solidarity hubby decided that he's gonna work on patience. :-) Of course, if I'm not gonna complain, his working on patience oughta be a piece of cake!! LOL I'm the one that complains his patience away!! LOL...Whatever!! ^_^
      In other news: I am still alive!! :-) I still don't know anymore, health-wise, than I did the last time I posted...even though I've seen many nurses, and the doctor, and am due to see more of them this week!!...My body is a puzzlement right now. And as many tests as there are that say all is well...there are as many weird things going on in my body! ^_^ The good thing is that whatever it is doesn't appear to be life-threatening. Unless strangling doctors and nurses is considered life-threatening! LOL
      I've been feeling good enough to crochet a bit. YAY!! :-)I made a few tiny lapel pin brooches that I plan to list in the Wuglyees shop today...

      The white boutonniere sold last night...along with a black and white one too! :-) YAY! I'll be making new ones today to replace them.

      Well, other than these few things, nothing else is going on around here...except for a really cute new etsy shop I found!! :-] I'll share a few of the items that caught my eye tomorrow....And yes! I think I'm back to my daily posts now. Don't quote me though, just in case! LOL
      Have a happy sleety, rainy, or sunshiny day!!...NO complaining allowed!! ^_^

Change

Oh, I've been so hither thither,
up and down, all here and there.
I guess I'm trying to get a handle
on the changes everywhere.

The changes of the weather
and the times, and of me.
The changes to my schedule
and responsibility.

I'm not complaining...Well not much!
This change is good. I will adjust.
You may see me near the highway
 with a sign: "Will Change Or Bust!"

Yeah, it's more and more lovely weather!!


       With my photo taking, you might not be able to see it, but that's a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain in the above photo. It's falling and pinging up against the window right now. Ugh! As if the piles and piles....AND piles...of snow wasn't enough!!


     Oh Well...at least it's pretty to 'look' at! I mean, it could be bags of plastic wrapped garbage falling from the sky, right! ^_^ So....thankfully it's not that!! LOL But oh, y'all! There's soooooo much snow on the ground everywhere!!! O_O
 

      It's the kind of snow you have to dig trenches through, in order to be able to go anywhere. O_O In fact, it's so much snow that there was a news report yesterday about how people with dire health problems couldn't even call an ambulance to come and transport them to the hospital in an emergency if something came up!!
        The ambulances and fire trucks can't drive down the streets in some places...Some side streets have more than 20 inches of snow sitting on them!...and now, this morning, freezing rain will be sitting on top of that!! O_O



     And to add insult to injury, one of my woodpeckers was huddled up, sitting on a low branch, with his head tucked in. :-( I know it's a smart move, considering the ice strips coming down at him from the sky, but still! I wanna see my little birdies chirping and eating. Not hiding...like me!...from the weather! LOL
     By the way, yesterday hubby and I saw two of the birds sitting on the suet feeder, feeding each other...beak to beak! :-) It was so cute!

       Okay...before I move on to studying, wrapping and shipping, and more crocheting, I wanna show you my latest lapel pins I made for my Wuglyees shop!...This one is blue and charcoal gray...




     And this one is black, white and gray!...
 



       Neither one of these two are listed yet, but they will be very soon. :-] Then I've got to get the others photographed and listed too...Actually, I wish I could hire someone to do the photographing and other stuff, and then I could do one of the things I love to do, just crochet!...and these days that's pretty much all I wanna do!! LOL
      Sooooo...off I go! ^_^ Have a good day, Everybody! :-)

Things I Love To Do

I love to lay on the bed in my room,
listening to the whirl of the fan;
And I love to cook in my kitchen,
listening to the sizzle in the pan.

I love to play`oldies`music;
Listening to the beat makes me dance.
And I love to watch sports on t.v.,
and scream when my team has no chance.

I love to walk through my house when its clean;
and light candles that smell nice and glow.
And I love to take naps in the middle of the day,
while I listen to the spanish station turned down low.

I love to crochet things and give them away;
and write personal letters to my friends.
And I love to write poetry to make myself smile-
like this one I did-The End.
