I don't know how those numbers got there, from the last post. Weird.
Sorry. Marly

Being a California girl I have never seen some of the beautiful bunnies and snow scenes you guys share but since I moved from Orange County CA to Riverside County CA which is at a higher elevation, I recently saw a half-frozen hummingbird feeder hanging on my tangerine tree that was loaded with fruit. There were also icicles on my roses next to the buds. Life is different here. When I figure out how to download the pictures I will share with you.

I am thankful for the sunsets!!!! I love the colors. It's a close to a beautiful day. The owls begin hooting, the ducks are quaking, the armadillo is coming out from under the deck. There is a raccoon eating lemons that have fallen from the lemon tree.

Great post Diane. Today I am thankful, that I didn't have to get out of my pajamas(that never happens) to go to work or anything. I've got a cold, but thats ok. I stayed in, stayed warm, did some sewing crafts, had some tea. So...thankful for a relaxing day,that almost never happens.Amen
