My corner has had about a week of sunshine with below freezing nights. Today that pattern is done. Fog, clouds and soon rain will be coming in. There's talk of snow this weekend but the daytime temps will be above freezing so I don't expect the snow to stick.
It's been a home week for me. We've been clearing out messes, taking things to the recycling toter. Nope on walking dogs. I did get up this morning and scooted to the pool first thing. Have to move my joints or lose 'em. I am way past the time of laughing about falling. A fall is a major disaster for me at this point. So off I must go to the pool to exercise.
Yesterday I was silly. I made some too tasty frosting. We have graham crackers.....
In about an hour we're sitting to a pot of tea just cause we are. That means that I need to clear a surface to put the teapot on. Wish I were joking. We'll have graham cracker sweet sandwiches just like we're kids. Maybe I will make some deviled eggs. Which teapot? Which teacups? Roses or violets on those cups?
Silly decisions. Much more fun than thinking about how the house taxes shot up about five hundred dollars this year. I will take a warm cup of tea over house taxes any day!

@RasmaSandra I admire the English people. We used to make crumpets.

Our taxes shockingly went down a little this year.
I need to start a new decluttering round again.

@wolfgirl569 Wow on your lower taxes. Washington state's west coast area is in demand. I bet the taxes never go down again. Decluttering is a never ending job.

it sounds like you need rain. I expect February will be rainy most days in my corner.
