UNDAUNTED, SHE INSISTED ON COFFEE AND PASTRIES

 IT'S ALREADY TULIP TIME HERE IN SOUTHWESTERN ONTARIO

Quite a stark weather contrast between our Saturday morning and our Sunday morning.  No magic in the air today with a cold north wind chill factor driving our cloud-covered temps of  37F down to 28F.  Not a nice morning to be out and about this time of year.  Our Jeep ride took us around half a dozen familiar roads then home again.

 WIND TURBINES WERE REALLY GROANING IN TODAY'S WIND

 I GUESS THIS IS TRULY A WOOD BENCH SEAT

 IN A FEW MONTHS THESE GRAIN SHUTES WILL BE BUSY TRANSFERRING GRAINS FROM FARM WAGONS TO SILOS

 A RESTING FARM TRACTOR WAITS FOR THE BUSY DAYS AHEAD

With our house surrounded by cold air for the rest of the day, I never set foot outside with the exception of taking Pheebs for a brisk afternoon walk around the Park's pond.  If it wasn't for my reading hobby I don't know what I would do with myself on long cold inside days like this.

 'OUT FOR A MORNING WALK WITH MY MOM'

 A FEW FARMER'S ON THE LAND SATURDAY MORNING

 IN LINE AND SOCIAL DISTANCING FOR BREAKFAST

 GETTING ONES FACE INTO ONE'S BREAKFAST

It has been determined by the Cardiologist that Kelly's Mother suffered a significant heart attack early Friday morning.  She remains in hospital and is in true fighting spirit determined to get out of there just as fast as she can.

 UNDAUNTED, SHE INSISTED HER SON PETER BRING HER COFFEE AND PASTRIES

Many times as I drive along with my best pal Pheebs on the seat beside me I  think how lucky I am to have such a great friend always with me in these difficult times.  I could not wish for a better companion as we wander about on our morning Jeep rides and walks.  We are made for each other and I think it must have been some kind of a miracle that we met nearly 10 years ago and have spent every single day together since.  We've never had an argument or a bad moment.  She never criticizes me for my mistakes nor laughs at my hapless follies.  She is patient when I am not and she is understanding when I am confused.  She helps me through my depressions and mood swings never slighting or mocking me for either one.  She is always positive with never a negative thought in her mind.  She has an encompassing happiness about her which is always there both day or night and she can light up anyone's day by just coming into their life.  Driving along thinking about things I often wish I was more like my dog and less like me...........

GROANER'S CORNER:((   Two elderly ladies were discussing the upcoming dance at the country club.  "We're supposed to wear something that matches our husband's hair, so I'm wearing black," said Mrs. Smith.  "Oh my," said Mrs. Jones, "I'd better not go."
