Yes, we have an official Winter Storm Warning for our little town! So exciting....they're saying 4-8 inches! Hallelujah!!! I love snow but I do pray that no one gets hurt and that the power stays on. We have no real snow equipment here so I always hope everyone gets home through the mountains alright on their way home from work. I already filled the wood bin and I got groceries and a prescription this morning so I'm all set!
I don't think I mentioned that they've been building a Dollar Tree (everything is now $1.25 but I digress) in our little town. I drove by and it was open so, of course, I couldn't stop my car from turning in there.
I got Valentine cards, and little gifts for the grands, and lights for my Valentine tree and my St. Patrick's Day tree........
I'm ahead of my goal so far in my Good Reads Challenge.......I've read 6 of 52 so far....the most recent read was this book.....very good! I didn't realize this is the first book in a series. I'm glad because I really enjoyed it..........
Wicked wolves and a grim governess threaten
Bonnie and her cousin Sylvia when Bonnie's parents leave Willoughby
Chase for a sea voyage. Left in the care of the cruel Miss Slighcarp,
the girls can hardly believe what is happening to their once happy home.
The servants are dismissed, the furniture is sold, and Bonnie and
Sylvia are sent to a prison-like orphan school. It seems as if the
endless hours of drudgery will never cease.
With the help of
Simon the gooseboy and his flock, they escape. But how will they ever
get Willoughby Chase free from the clutches of the evil Miss Slighcarp?
It is a children's book evidently and it was wonderful....my second childhood?
I'm still reading The Body (non-fiction) by Bill Bryson and it is very interesting but you can only read so much of it at a time...it's a lot to digest.....LOL! Good pun, huh?
As for fiction I am reading This is Happiness which I have no opinion about yet.......it was highly recommended by Charlie and Kate Gibson on their podcast.
That's all for today. I need to go wash some dishes. My dishwasher is not cleaning them so I called Somebody (that is the name of the guy!)....he's good. He's repaired my dryer before.
Happy Trails!!!

I'm starting book number 4 of the month. A 5th one is a walk a week for the year so have just been reading it a little at a time. Hope the winter weather doesn't cause any problems. Another very overcast day here. Take care.
The snow sounds exciting. Hope you do not lose power. You had a successful trip to Dollar Tree.
Love your Sabbath xs. How big will it be when finished? I love snow as long as I don't have to drive in it. I was shocked when I went to Dollar Tree a few weeks back to discover the prices were 1.25 now. Time for a store name change lol. When did that happen?
Hi Sam, Hope you enjoy your snow! AND the power stays on so you stay warm!
Glad you're all ready for the snow, Sam. I think we're a few hours behind you for getting. It's raining at the moment, but it's supposed to start snowing here within a few hours.
