Sunday morning

and we are sitting at 6+ Celsius....I think that is around 40 or 42 F......high won't be much more than 10 or 11 and it is very damp with rain this morning....I need to be out planting tulips and daffodils but maybe tomorrow. We do have a dryer day predicted for then but the rest of the week is rain and more rain and then the dreaded "S" word predicted for the long weekend along with the rain.....the white stuff won't stay this go round and won't be the pretty white fluffy flakes, it will just add to the mud.

Sara , what a lovely way tao celebrate your Grandson's 13th birthday, I have a hard time imagining where the time has gone already and my two DGS are only 19months and 6 months. And the initial ultrasound for DS#3 and his girlfriend show a strong heartbeat and we will wait for the next one in a couple of months.....DS wants to know if it will be a girl or boy because he is only painting the bedroom once ! I guess a neutral shade isn't in the works at this point. We just pray for a healthy grandchild in late spring !

How does something so simple turn into a probably expensive repair ? Forturnately we are looking at this as being very lucky that there had been no emergency because of it. Yesterday was the day to change the old fan light fixture in our bedroom. But during the process we found old wiring and wrong connections and live wires...yikes.....and we have run that fan almost daily, turns out there is something wrong on that whole circuit because 1/2 my sewing room, all of the back bedroom where the DGS sleeps and 1/2 the master bedroom is on this circuit and when the fan was taken down it blew the power on these areas.....seems like the boxes are even live, so we shut down that whole area's power and will wait for the electrician to come on Monday rather than pay extreme rates on the weekend.....hopefully it will be fixed tomorrow and therefore safe.
Both our fathers were electricians and we have a more than healthy respect for these things.

Off to work on the sleeves for the last pumpkin face sweater......now it seems that hats will be necessary......BIG SIGH !!!
