We are in the middle of a late snowstorm. Spring was early and at the same time winter is late. We are grateful for the moisture in whatever form it takes. Everything seems to be topsy-turvy these days.

| Nectar for our little friends. I also tossed out bird seed for the other birds struggling through this storm. |
Big Jane is back! She has a nest somewhere in our yard. She is not afraid of us. She is just outside of our front door. I walked out the door this morning and talked to her. She often comes up to the window as if she's looking in to say hello.
Big Jane was just beyond the fence yesterday taking refuge in the safety of a small clump of weeds. All I could see was the tops of her ears. She will stay right where she is until dusk unless she gets spooked. Last year, she hung out under the solar panels with the chickens.
I enjoy our interactions with the wildlife. Mutual respect and boundaries are a must when it comes to wildlife and people for that matter. We stay in our lane and they stay in theirs. We get to enjoy their beauty, and they have the benefit of safety on our land.

We had quite the hailstorm yesterday. It blanketed the ground like snow. We are grateful for the moisture in whatever form we can get it. It is so dry that when it melted it didn't even make puddles.
Stay safe out there,
Mrs. Smith
Seems like we spend most of our time in the car these days. It was worth it on this day in particular just to see this doggy. His owner knows cataracts are common in dogs at this altitude.

When I can't sit and read a book, I enjoy audio books on YouTube while I do my busy work.
I like to have noise in the background while doing chores or studying, so I also enjoy music on YouTube.
YouTube has a plethora of sermons from the past and present. Be careful, YouTube does not screen for truth. As always test what is being said with the Word.
There are potential side effects from watching YouTube like wasting time and brain cells if you get caught up in the useless garb that is out there. I like things that expand my mind not shrink my ability to focus for any length of time. There are a lot of things that can be learned from content creators, and I appreciate the time and energy that they spend creating "How To"... vlogs.
Have a great day,
Mrs. Smith
We have been doing a lot of back and forth into the city for appointments and such. It's just a busy time in our lives right now. Our latest appointments were for eyeglasses that had to be redone, so that makes two trips just for that and we are not finished yet. I hope both of my pairs will be right next time or I will have to have different frames. I'm struggling to type this right now due to the placement of the progressive portion of the lenses. The sides blur, so I can't read without turning my head, ugh!

I need to stay home and do some cooking. We have had to resort to some instant type meals lately. Not super unhealthy, but not great. I failed to lay anything out for the weekend, so we bought healthier sandwich fixings and fruit. The house is clean and I am almost caught up with the laundry. Spending hours and hours on the road has been taxing. I am ready to catch up on some rest this Sabbath.
Shabbat Shalom,
Mrs. Smith
My friend made it home from Ecuador after 35 days. We picked her up at the airport late at night. We dropped her and Sammy at home. We got back home around midnight. I'm so glad that she is back.
She came out today and I made all of us a big taco feast with all the accoutrements. We played a few games and caught up with each other. Sammy came too. He was happy to be back here. I was worried that he would be afraid that his mama was leaving him, but he didn't mind a bit. She brought us a few treasures from Ecuador, and I thought I would share them with you.
