BRRRRR.  It's beyond cold here.  Our normal daytimes here are in the mid 40's.  Today the high was 16.  Low for tonight is 5 with windchills feeling like -10.  I am definitely not made for this.  I usually don't even wear a coat.  Not now though,  give me coats, lots of coats and wool socks and hats and gloves and anything else that will keep me warm. 


Something wonderful happened to me today.  I won in the Season of Giving blog hop.  I never win anything and I WON.  Wonderful start to 2014.  Thank you to Maria Levine at RiaCreations.blogspot.com.
