HAPPY BIRTHDAY YESTERDAY JACKIE

HOPE YOUR DAY WAS GREAT!!

Another quiet day. I slept a little later and am feeling better today, the usual time for getting over the effects of the chemo. It snowed tiny flakes most of the morning, then started trying to clear up. No more than another skiff fell.

For several days I've been writing on The Book. And am working on the high school years. This is the main part - including up through being at the lodge - that isn't done. Everything except editing before and after this is finished. After I get started I get into it, but this part seems more like work than the other parts have. And its pretty slow. My memory isn't as good as it was just a few years ago either.

Jerry came in with his dump truck and plow and cleaned the small drifts out of our road again yesterday afternoon. How nice is that??!! This morning I saw them bring some feed over with the tractor. They usually spread that out for the cows the day before they come. So I'd guess that the time for the cattle being driven over is imminent. Maybe they will come tomorrow.

The dogs and I took another walk yesterday. I was outside for an hour or more. I took some photos of the snow in the corrals. It's still plenty deep. It was a little muddier walking to the gate than the last time. But warm and pleasant .... in my down coat and knit cap. I wish you could see how much the dogs enjoy running and leaping through the snow. Raven found a soft fluffy spot and just wallowed and buried herself in the whiteness.
