A Time ~~

There is time for everything.

~~ Thomas A. Edison

Good Afternoon ~~

Hope everyone is well, & happy.
It is amazingly beautiful here at

the Cabin, the snow is falling in
big fat flakes...almost the size of

goose feathers.
Everything looks clean, white, and fresh.

I'm tucked in with a cup of tea,

some magazines,

and fresh baked cookies.

I know most of us are all longing

for Spring, but ~~

"It Is what It Is"... right now.

Our turn will come soon.

We are almost at the end of February so

we cant possibly have too much
longer to wait.

Can we ???

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We have lots of birthdays in February,

we just celebrated two of my great nephews

Mike 15 & Nick 17, amazing kids !!

Paul will celebrate Thursday the 25th,

and my sister is a leap year baby.

There is no 29th this year so she
will receive her cards, gifts and calls on the 28th.

We are Blessed to have a large family so there are plenty

of get together's to celebrate .... which is always
fun, and helps make the month pass even faster.

Wishing you my Friends,

Happy Contented Days

filled with your Hearts Desire

as we patiently wait for Spring ~~

Happy Valentine's Day ~~

If there ever comes the Day,

When we can not be Together,

Keep me in your Heart,

I'll stay there Forever. ~~

Good Afternoon ~~
By the warmth of the wood stove I'm
filling small gift bags with Valentine Treats

for the GrandGirls.

Some stationary, home made candies,

stickers, tiny composition books, heart cookies, and tiny

little sewing books, that I purchased for each of them at

aunt daisy's last time I was in PA.

A few weeks prior the girls and I had a sewing circle,

we mended some of Pop's work shirts.

I showed them how to thread

a needle, knot the thread, and sew on a button,

we had such fun. I thought their own sewing book

would be something they would enjoy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We received an evite for tonight to celebrate Valentine's Day
they are calling it 2nd Annual !!

Both sets of Grand Parents will head to their

house this afternoon,

and stay for dinner, dessert and wii bowling.

We don't know how long they will want to celebrate

this Sweet Holiday with us...but we will take

it for as long as we can.

Bless My Daughter In-Law & Son for

always including us.

Not that I think the Girls give them a choice. lol

Hope where ever you are, and what ever you do,
You are surrounded by those you Love ~~

Happy Valentine's Day !!

Happy Ground Hog Day ~~

Happy Ground Hog Day

Conflicting News ~~ With Opposing Views ~~

Punxsutawney Phil predicts six more weeks of Winter,

Staten Island Chuck predicts Early Spring.

We here in Connecticut have no forecaster

of our own *** so we rely on the

Neighboring States who have experts to

predict when Spring will arrive.

This year we can pick which ever

one makes us Happy. lol

Its all Good !!

UPDATE ***

Just heard from a friend ..... we have

Connecticut Chuckles ...WHAT,
never heard of him.

He also predicted six more weeks of Winter.

I'm dreaming Spring ..... but a few

more weeks of Winter is okay too.

Happy Birthday Mama

We Think

The keeping of records as you go back

in time leaves us some what confused.

My Mother's birth certificate states

February 3rd 1914 ~ Born Yesterday.

So we have never been exactly sure

if she was born on the 2nd or the 3rd

of February .......

We always celebrated on the 2nd.

Her name also was a little confusing

Anna Marie or Mary Ann

she used Mary Ann.

Either way she was

a Wonderful, Daughter, Sister,

Wife, Mother, Nanny, Aunt & Friend

Who was Loved by All

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Left to right the sisters

Sophie & Mary (mama)

& me

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hope you are all well, happy and warm.
