I am excited for almost 40 in Sunday ;) life is going and I am just along for the ride.

hoping today is better with the boys....I am counting down the days until the girls go back to school!

Will do....✝️

Lots of extra snuggle time with the kids under the blanket on the couch--books, movies, board and card games. We try and make something in the oven and then when it is done cooking turn the oven off but leave the door open for a little extra heat.

wind is just starting here. temp hasn't gone anywhere since this morning -8F with a feels like temp of -27F

It is just cold. We are on the edge of the blizzard warning. The wind is supposed to start up soon, I hear a bit of it already. Today and tomorrow are going to be brutal. Even with feeding the wood stove constantly our house barely hits 70s, nice old farm house. BUT we will be ok, we have food...

I hear ya, my house is cold this morning. Wood stove is going full force and we are stuck at 69. -9F outside right now, no snow yet and I can't hear the winds so they must be light for now. Sounds like tonight is when it is going to really start. Stay safe my WI friend! Luckily by next week it...

YES!!! I am going to steal this as my resolution list as well!

Thank you! and yes this is the worst part for us too, getting her to take the meds. Her cough makes her so tired that she crashes at night and with no coughing overnight she at least gets some rest. It is cold out-thermometer says 6F BRRRR. I got the heated water bowls set up yesterday for the...

This is what our agent told us to do, well take pictures, so we do this about every couple years and then update paper lists of items. I have NOT looked at replacement prices though! I hadn't even thought about that, so yep same here another thing to do!

well, it is still snowing, I think we are at about 1 ft of snow. I have snow blowed twice in the last 24 hours and raked snow off the chicken coop this morning. Hauled in a bunch of wood, picking up groceries today and then hunkering down for a week! They are predicting with the wind chill that...

@tortoise we have the generator all gassed up here, but haven't had to use it in the winter yet--we did use it twice this summer after a couple storms. Road were junk last night, we went to plow at our property 10 min north and I ended up having to push out DH's vehicle from the driveway and...

@Dreamz you are amazing, you are loved and you are worthy of great things. do what you need to do, know that we are all here to listen, and trust in the Lord.

I had a salad-DD8 had a pear, a salad, a yogurt and some grapes. I have no idea what DH and DD16 had, it was a night-lots of time outside before the storm

My kids don't have school either (they just had a late start yesterday). I of course have to drive into the office for a laptop switch, of all days....ony the 4th time in the office in 2.5 years so not too bad. Lots of snow out there but it is above freezing so that is a plus. I think 2 out...

yep, i like this approach :) sounds just like what I do with chickens

These two parts gave me a big smile---so excited for you on both these counts.

Good morning @Grandmas Porch enjoy the coffee and the fire!

Happy baking! Wanna come to my house next?! hahaha I HATE cooking and baking but this is the one time of year that I buckle down and try for the kids, lol

I have just begun to think of them: 1. Lose about 20-25 lbs 2. Add another $10-15k to savings 3. Get grad party for daughter planned before March 1 4. Put an extra $5k on mortgage this year 5. Clean out extra room (boxes from when we moved 16 years ago, lol) 6. Clean out old kids clothes and...
