The week in photos...

It's been another interesting week.  I can't really find a common theme, so here are some random photos...


Fitbit dashboard on my phone



 I LOVE my Fitbit, an early Christmas present.  It tracks your steps, miles, calories, etc.  And most days I achieve my goal of 10,000 steps.

 Interesting how an electronic device can inspire you to get outside and walk and walk and walk...Hey, if it works, go for it!



















Mike and I both survived the flu.  I was down for a day, and it hit Mike for three days.  He slept and slept, and periodically I checked to make sure he was breathing...

Alive?

I had outpatient surgery on Friday, and it took me awhile to realize I was in a kid's room.  I know, what was the first clue?

Thanks Mike for this lovely photo...



And then there are a few random shots around town...

"Get a load of this"


"Just Drains" 

 I almost rear-ended the truck getting the picture of  "You just can't fix stupid". What can I say?

And of course I've been busy making a few Christmas gifts...

And I see some amazing views while walking...

Stay healthy and have a great week!

Winter wonderland

Handmade tree from Pam and George




As we decorated for the Christmas season this week, nature added it's own decorations. We received our first major snowfall this week with six inches of f white powdery snow blanketing the area.

 I thought you might enjoy a view of this beautiful winter wonderland...

Friday was a day robbed of color.  The world was black, white and shades of gray...

Back yard unspoiled


First snow for our "saved" park bench

Pansies' last gasp

Sentries guarding the tree. We found this scene as we drove through the countryside.

I hope you are finding time during this busy season to enjoy the beauty of the lights (and yes, the snow).
