HAPPY NEW WEEK and HAPPY FULL MOON!
The Full Moon is Wednesday, 16 February.
Here's what happened to me on Thursday evening. I thought you all might enjoy the story.
My toaster oven is on my enclosed porch (the electricity is newer and stronger there). After dark in the evening, I walked out on the porch to make a grilled cheese sandwich ("cheese toastie") for my supper. Right after I turned on the light, I heard a long, slow howl outside the front door. It was a coyote! It only howled once, and then I heard it move through the snow. It must have been warning its mate and any young that are still with them. Coyotes mate in February here, so they're active right now. They pair for life. The howl was powerful!
Everyone have a safe and serene week!

A compromise is an arrangement whereby people who can’t get what they want make sure nobody else does either.
LINDA - Family problems can be difficult but remind yourself 'tis better than no family.
Tonight's TV is Tony Robinson and the Thames by night. I've finished my library books and I have 2 waiting to be collected. I shall delay until Friday in case the third arrives. All from other than my own local library and it can take weeks sometimes for the courier to transport them. By then I may have forgotten why I was so interested LOL.
Have some hyacinths out, which fill the room with their divine smell.
Morning all:
AQ: My OH is a firm believer in all of those sayings. It's quite frustrating coz I'm at the other end of that particular spectrum. Hope your OH won't have to wait too long for his lunch.
Lindybird: Sorry about the new family problem; hope you can avoid being caught up in it too much. How is Sue handling the fact that she's sacrificing her deposit on that cruise? It does sound quite manageable, what with vaccine requirements, a smallish group - and all that crisp Scandinavian air! Our County has dropped the mask mandate today, but quite a few folks are wondering if it's too soon and will continue.
OG: It's been three months to the day since daughter went into hospital; she's able to get around but they don't want her left alone for the first week or so. I won't be going there until next Tuesday at the earliest - I think. :-)
Heather: When are the Danes arriving? I seem to recall you saying that the gentleman involved could be somewhat curmudgeonly in terms of how things are done? How long are they staying?
I got a lot of paperwork/phone calls sorted yesterday so will work in the garden later. Temperature seems to have moderated thank heaven.
Just a thought
The best portion of a good man’s life is his little nameless, unencumbered acts of kindness and of love. (Wordsworth)
