For a smile as wide as a country sunrise
Good morning everyone! It is a nice, cloudy morning once again, though it looks like it might be clearing in the south. The temperature began at 38F (3C) earlier this morning, now it has dropped to 34F (1C) and it is supposed to drop further with snow beginning shortly. We still have some snow left from before, all those warm days were not enough to melt all the snow we had, though most is gone.
The weekend is supposed to be mild again though, then a bigger drop in temperature which will then stay with us. Winter has not been too bad so far, although there has been a lot of ice this winter. Well, my new fridge is much nicer than the old one and it is working great. Poor Muffin did not like it when the guys brought in the new fridge.

Blue Jay photos for today, this one is Baxter.
When all was done, or so I thought, the guy said to wait and hour before turning on the fridge. Fine. Now, he did neglect to tell me everything however. Like the fact the fridge was in the middle of the floor, not in the spot where it should be. I had to do that part. It did move quite easily, but a fridge is still heavier than I should be moving around. By quite a bit.

Not sure who this is, but this Blue Jay looks happy on a summer morning.
I finally got it in position and then remembered I needed to plug it in first. Sigh. I pull it back out, plug it in and push the fridge back into position. That was just a little too much and I hurt my back. Sigh. So I had to lie down. That meant no walk that day and no working on my table either.
My back still was not feeling good yesterday, so no walk again and no working on my table. Again. Sigh. Now today it is cloudy, cool and a strong north wind. Oh well, a good day to stay inside and work on my table. And drink coffee. Lots of coffee. I heard a crow cawing earlier this morning, other than that there has been no bird activity today.

This Blue Jay is Betty, Baxter’s mate.
Certainly not a bird area, that is for sure. Oh well. There does seem to be a lot of traffic out there today, more than normal. But this is Christmas shopping season, so that would mean a lot more traffic. Must be time for more coffee. I hope you have a wonderful day and God bless!
Steve and Muffin.

Quite alright. All I’ve done so far is laundry. Had to fight 3 ladies just to get my machine. After it was over we were all blowing bubbles.

Yeah, more normalish than unnormalish so maybe I can work on my table today for a bit. I need to work on my Christmas wish list too. My nieces want it so they can get me stuff for Christmas. Has to be from Amazon though.
