so, it has been awhile

Obviously I haven't wanted to post anything since August.  Funny, the last post was about a storm, and today we are expecting a full-on snowstorm.  

It's not like I haven't had anything to say... I just haven't been motivated.  Between Covid and politics, it's just been zapping all my energy.  So far we've still managed to avoid the first.  Vaccinations have just started here.  I figure my kids and I will be able to get it anywhere from April to June.  We just need to hang in there until then.  It hasn't been horrible, but it's not very fun doing little to nothing.  My daughter can't find a job yet; my son is finishing up his first semester of junior year in college (at home), and I'm bored.  But hey, it could be a lot worse.  Cases are going up because people are being stupid here... 

Politics dragged me WAAAAAY down.  Honestly, there are some faces in the news I hope I never have to see again.  Ugh.  That's all I'm going to say about that. 

We did manage to get our Christmas tree up and decorated though.  It's our first Christmas here in the new house.  


I always set up my little white tree too. 


My daughter always did lights on our old porch.  She did the new one too.  It was a bit easier since this porch is smaller.



Sometimes we get some pretty wild sunsets in winter.  This past week we've had a few. 



Stay-at-home means lots of time to walk the dog.  It catches up with Ivy.


I've never seen a dog sleep on her back as much as this one does.  She's weird.

So now I'm counting down the hours until the snow starts to fall.  Hope you're all doing well.
