Dreaming of Spring

Happy Friday Folks~Last night the snow started to fall and it hasn't stopped. The cold front was a "Pineapple Express" from the west and the snow is so wet-like Sierra Sludge. This is what we woke up to today-almost 5" overnight. Hubby got out and shoveled the driveway and sidewalks right away and then I shoveled Hunter a path and patch of lawn(you can see it in the background). It is going to be an inside day for me; hubby went to Pickleball but I think it will be a small group-too much snow on the roads.

While I will be working on packing my sewing room today, my hubby is dreaming of warmer, sunny days in Kauai. We head there this spring to join his Peeps, shown here; they are his best friends from California and we meet them every two years for an intensive time of golf. The guys just play while the girls enjoy the weather and the shops; this year I will be spending time with Val of My Girlz Got Paws blog. I'm so excited to finally meet Val face to face and see the island through her eyes. This will be our 9th trip and we still have so much to discover.

Last night our sil came over and within a few minutes had our new t.v. up and running-so good we have younger family members that understand all the tecky things. Reminds me of my mom when she had to learn computers-it was so hard for her and this was back in the 70's. Wednesday marked the 39th anniversary of her going home to glory; remembering dates like this is a family thing or maybe just Irish. It seems like a lifetime ago, but then I was a different person-still so young and immature. She never got to see me married or my girls, but I know she smiles down on me. I see traits of hers in my brother and myself as well as one of my girls and some of my grands. Just the inflection of certain words comes straight from her brogue-it always makes me laugh.
 I hope you have a warm and wonderful weekend.
