firewood stack, my personal stash

for today

 for today

outside my window... 32F/cloudy @ 1:00am

i am thinking...  a new firewood source is imperative 'sigh'

i am thankful for... an ergonomic snow shovel & Lomotil

i am wearing... jeans, thermal pullover, fleece hoodie, ankle boots

i am going... for a flu shot & a covid booster on Friday

i am currently reading... 

"The Paper Bag Christmas"

~ Kevin Alan Milne ~

i am hoping...  to purchase a new car battery this week

on my mind... gas @ $3.97/gallon, milk @ $3.99/gallon, butter @ $3.99/lb

pondering these words...

"Holly and mistletoe

Candles and bells,

I know the message

That each of you tells."

~ Leland B. Jacobs ~

from the kitchen...

leftover turkey & vegetables for a deep dish pot pie

panettone

fruitcake

around the house... winter greenery

one of my favorite things...  white poinsettias

i'm creating... the December Challenges @ The Lilypad

a few plans for the week... grocery shopping; holiday baking; wreaths/trim/lights, etc.

from my lens:

* Good Morning, December *
