Happy sunday to all. Rainy, very stormy weather in Germany. Not nice.:(
Torts, dogs and cats are warm and safe indoors.:D
I hope that sheep can`t be blown away ( they are too heavy because pregnant ):eek::D. When chicken will be blown away they learn to fly....:eek::D:D Hopefully they will return back home.:( That`s the short weather report from cold old Germany.
Have a nice sunday without storm.

I think the sun is shining here. I haven't been outside yet. We had rain overnight, so everything will be wet, and I don't see the trees moving, so hopefully no wind. I don't have plans to work outside today, as the dirty house is still calling my name, but I do have to go out to feed, water and pick up after the animals.

I think that piece is left over from a previous project finished a few years ago. While we were living overseas, most of my wood working tools (and misc supplies) were in storage. So, this came out of one of my boxes of stored goodies/surprises.
Oh...then nicely dried and waiting. I like the bark.

Dad is hunting but I read that they don’t hunt well at night.
There are 2 eggs now and should hatch about April 10.

I wonder if he's just taking a break and resting nearby. Most birds can't see at night well enough to be flying.

I’ll have to send you a pix of the coffee cup I have been using for MANY years...
I've been to and through Llangollen many times on my way to Snowdonia in North Wales.
It's a very pretty place and has been the home of the International Eisteddfod for many years.
You'd enjoy kayaking around there.

I hate windy too!!! Hello. I went to Wal-Mart yesterday. There was a really lovely young lady shopping for a sun hat so she could go on vacation and I couldn't resist. I told her how much I would love to wear one too. But it looks to cutesy on an elderly person. She said she usually doesn't wear them either but by the time it was over...her husband and her, me, my son and his significant other were having a fun conversation in the middle of Wal-Mart. Did you you find a hat yet? Hoping you feel better.

Usually high winds don't wake me up but they did this morning. If I'd been out I could get blown away. Everyone tells me to wear rocks in my pockets. Sorry...I'm too old to be carrying half my body weight. I hate it when it's windy..and it was.

Happy Sunday morning,

In celebration of Wales Six Nations win I present the dragon!

Tons of rain overnight.....but no nasty wind. Lots of tornadoes hitting parts of the US south.. bad stuff!
My girls participated in a soccer camp when they were little. We hosted one of the coaches. The girls’ team for camp was this one. I had to draw that dragon for a flag. Won’t forget that, ever.

More trouble for me - my boiler has stopped working!
It's too late to call an engineer so I've no heating.
I have a small fan heater directed at Lola's place but I will have to sleep downstairs tonight to keep an eye on it.

You just can’t catch a break!!
I hope you both stay warm.
Did a breaker trip?
Except for getting that walking boot.

Some big changes are coming in our back yard!!
I took a few pics.
This big pine is coming down on Wednesday and 2 pepper trees that I love! This sea container will be removed too. In the future we will add some sort of barn/garage will be added and the torts relocated where the container is. But we need to move some dirt and grade it.
Here are a few before shots.

Lovely trees, but needs must.
That's a lot of work to keep you busy for a while and I hope the torts will like their new location.
