We will spend the next few days cutting up fallen trees and pick the neighbors garbage out of the bushes. Why is it always windy on recycling pick up days?<br />We spent much of our extra cold time reading, watching movies like Lawrence of Arabia, and doing Ancestry.com. I am addicted!<br />We made several batches of soups, enjoyed salads and stayed warm. Even the dogs went in and out in two minutes. We have stairs- they were our exercise.<br />Tia Chi begins this week. Hope it warms for all of us!<br />Janettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10054888725603183006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626594980028435818.post-50419616868729193702017-03-18T10:25:36.002-04:002017-03-18T10:25:36.002-04:00I can not watch, read nor listen.

You could try exploring your genealogy. We're expecting more rain next week and another storm reportedly coming in a week after that. Don't know if they'll carry more snow your way to finish off your March. I recall looking forward to snow and winter, but was ready for it to end before it ever did. joaredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09999395062839739698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626594980028435818.post-43740394113883897022017-03-16T11:57:42.101-04:002017-03-16T11:57:42.101-04:00I've been watching a few of the programs on Co...I've been watching a few of the programs on Coursera lately and really enjoying it. My particular favorites are when they take a historical era and add in the other subject areas sociology, geography, etc. I've also watched a couple of programs - some made for TV and some documentary type on Genghis Khan. Incredible times. I also have enjoyed several programs on the Vikings and early England.

My friend often comments that snow means slow. It means more reading, more movie-watching, more game nights, more time for watching the fire, all in preparation for the flurry of activity that spring/summer brings.
