Snow Early

When I woke up this morning it was clear out and after an hour or so when the sun started to come up I could see that it had started to snow a little and by 0800 it really had started coming down.

Kathleen came downstairs about 0800 and she made herself a couple of egg yokes and she fixed me the egg whites from this morning and also a couple from last Saturday. She also made some hash brown and while we were eating the whole front lawn was covered as was the street.

Stan got here a little after 0900 and had to go home to pick up a tarp and poles so that he could set up his saws and keep them dry. So when he got back I helped him set up the tarp and then after he got started working Kathleen and I took a walk around the block.

This first one is of Kathleen and myself; of course I had to bend at the knees quite a bit so that we all could fit in the picture.



The second one is a close up of yours truly in my American Buffalo Collection Stetson.



The last one is of full shot of me; notice the nice compression socks that I have to wear. It took me a while before I would wear them outside without long pants or jeans on but I was always so hot that I decided that even if it was not a fashionable look I would go for the comfortable look.



Tomorrow Stan thinks that he will be able to put the new stairs in place; he has been making the staircase level and has added cleats to the old riser so that the new stairway will be level and hopefully much quieter.

Well I have been rather tired lately and that is one of the reasons I have not blogged much. We also have been away from home during the afternoons and evenings so by the time we got home I was out of energy.

Saturday the Oregon Roushes celebrated a belated Christmas and December adult birthdays; Sunday Kathleen and I attended Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University at church and again by the time we got home I was worn out. Then last night we had our small group and did not get home until after 2130 and mentally I was spent!
