February 26- home things

Good morning everyone 

I spent a lot of this week cleaning and such around our home.  Things had just go out of whack for several reasons.  

I put the leaves back in the big dining table 

and put out a few Saint Patrick’s decorations 

  

Husband’s little garden plants are growing 

 

They seem to like our sunny bay window ☀️

Our living room 

I bought a vented storage wood box  to hide the antenna and roku boxes on the mantle,  put my assortment of birds on the mantle and on the shelf over the sofa 

and made a rag strip wreath for over the loveseat (some of the grands helped make the wreath) 

Cooking this week 

Smothered steak in the crockpot on a day I had a busy afternoon 

I cooked a hen and will make it into soup or more chicken and noodles this weekend 

And we had a new kind of frozen pizza that was really very good for a frozen pizza.  

   

During the cold spell, we ran our heater and our gas fireplace so much!  We did conserve when told to but that wasn’t until the middle of the 2 weeks when it never warmed up above freezing,  

I’ve heard natural gas prices increased astronomically too, 

I was concerned what our gas bill would look like and it came this morning.  

I’m not sure how it is so small and I’m very thankful we had heat during those very cold days.  

Ducky played with grandkids 2 days and spent 1 day at the doggy day camp and spa.  

It all made him so tired.  

But doesn’t he look clean and fluffy?  He smells good too! 

Hope you all have a good weekend 

❤️ Rhonda
