Great photos, and all good things on your list. I'm with you, especially on the room heater and Greek yogurt!
I love the nuthatch. We too have had beautiful birds this winter. Nurse/photographer son found a momma eagle sitting on three eggs. He found out there were three by climbing a nearby tree to look down into the nest, and daddy eagle let him know he didn't like it.

I love the photos, and I love your list! Though I'd have to skip the rotisserie chicken, being a vegetarian.

I'm glad you are having a cozy time of it. Enjoy.

Greek yogurt is indeed yummy!

I'd add Netflix and Roku to my list.

I've recently gotten addicted to Greek yogurt myself. I just ate my last one so I'm not happy.
I am going to miss all out pretty snow when it is gone but I'm not going to miss having to constantly reschedule all Daddio's appointments due to weather. We have a 7:45 in the morning and they are calling once again for freezing rain and snow tonight. :(

I have to try that Neutrogena lotion. I have to admit, I'm really ready for spring.

Love the pictures!! I agree with your list of winter must-haves. In my house I would be adding homemade chicken soup and a hot chai latte. I am (daily) loving my yogurt too.

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
