1 Coming to the realization that it's okay to walk away. Some people say they're there, but really it's just empty words.
2 Getting all of the pieces together for an unusual craft. Then procrastinating the day away. Sometimes it's perfectly okay to change your mind.
3 Having enough of cold weather and packing away my winter clothes despite it being chilly.
1 It snowed overnight and created a bit of driving chaos for some. Thankfully we both were home just before it really came down. Thankful for the neighbor who plowed our driveway this morning too.
2 Our furnace was misbehaving but I managed to fix it by reprogramming one tiny bit. All is well and warm now.
3 I'm often a bit disappointed after I get a hair cut but this time I really love it. My stylist was in a good mood, maybe that helped?
1 Our beautiful and talented granddaughter competed in the BC Winter Games and got 4th in Advanced Kata, a Gold medal in Advanced Kumite and the very prestigious award for sportsmanship. We couldn't be prouder and happier for her.
2 Pussy willows to add to the mantle and for crafts.
3 Having my guy there at just the right moment. He really is my person.
1 Days pass by and we are still in the throes of this cold. This morning we take turns sharing the boiled tea kettle. We place a towel over our head to make a steam tent. I'm pretending it's a fancy facial.
2 Yesterday I made peanut butter cookies for Mr P. Sadly he's got no sense of taste or smell but he's really going to enjoy eating them once he's well. Most are in the freezer.
3 We had extra cherry tomatoes and garlic going soft so I added olive oil, salt and pepper and roasted then blended everything together. Oooh I'm thinking it just might be perfect for a pizza sauce or maybe just a dip on crackers.
1 Finding solace in the quiet of my room.
2 This cold is brutal but I'm alive.
3 Doing my best to make nutritious food for recovery.

2 Waking up to a Valentine's Day hug from the ladies group.

1 Coffee.
2 Finding what I needed at the grocery store to make Mr P 2 jam roly-poly treats.
3 Feeling like there's hope for this wonky back of mine. Changing my mindset.

2 I baked a lemon blueberry loaf.
3 Cleaning up.
