Tuesday

 Sunny walk this morning. There was still a little snow on my walk, but most of the ice has cleared off the paths now. It is nice without having to worry about slipping and sliding. We had a good walk today. We saw lots - among them the following as well as the usual assortment of other birds, squirrels and chipmunks. 

Red-tailed Hawk

Cooper's Hawk (maybe that or another type)

Pileated Woodpecker

2 Sandhill Cranes

Muskrat

8 deer

It was quite lively out at Asylum Lake this morning!

After the walk I did my grocery shopping. Ouch. Expensive. That's all I can say. Thankfully I have enough for the week and will be staying out of the shops. I can honestly say that I am doing better with my low spending on craft items (haven't purchased any in several weeks!) and books (I resisted buying any today). I admitted to being tempted on the books but then I thought of all the ones I have at home and how they are cluttering up my space and making me a little anxious so I resisted. I told myself they will still be around after - if - I ever finish up the ones I have!

I got several jobs done today too so overall a productive day. 

Phone Photos - Things That Make Me Smile 67/365

As you can probably tell, this has been on my bookshelf for a while. I finished it today. I really enjoyed it and it made me smile. It was sad but happy too. A nice story. 

I had a bumpy moment today when my aunt sent me a photo of her at Mum's bench putting some flowers on there. I miss Mum so much. 💗
