My Goat-Girl!

She was home sick from school that day, but I was able to get her some fresh air as we visited the new baby goat at a neighbor's farm. So pale, but all smiles!  What a trooper!

It's Not Just Cats....

Who lay on top of one's knitting! This is Duncan, by the way.  He is a Cairn Terrier mix that we picked up from the shelter last June.

Snowed In Schoolhouse

Image
This is our first "over a footer" snowstorm of this winter season. When I was growing up, these weren't very newsworthy. 2 feet of snow was more typical with blizzards of 3-4 feet in places being big news. Regardless, having everything covered in a fresh layer of snow is simply beautiful and peaceful. I love looking out of my living room window at the old one-room schoolhouse across the street.  No matter the season, it is a beautiful site. In two more months there will be yellow daffodils around the foundation. Today, it gets a blanket of snow. This blog post is linked at Coast Charm.

Who Is Mildred Rothwood?

In the absence of a penpal, I have begun a creative writing blog called: Rothwood Letters Mrs. Mildred Elizabeth Rothwood is my fictional penpal to whom I write of my daily goings-on and thoughts, as I would a real penpal. Mrs. Mildred Elizabeth Rothwood is also YOU, my readers.  When you leave a comment, it is as if you are Mildred, herself writing back to me.  (Unless you are a tiresome troll, in which case just don't). Enjoy!
