This is the weekend we leave winter GOOD BYE!!!
Mom and TLC, and I and Dad are very happy. Mom and I keep looking for sprigs of green grass—yep, there is some. (Mom says it’s really weeds and Cheat Grass—but I’ll take it!!!)

I can remember thinking that I had lots and lots of time—time to do this or that or whatever. But now, at 76, I realize life really goes so fast!
So very, very very fast. So keep each day in your heart and live fully. It goes fast.
Really, very fast!!!
From my heart to your world,

A few days ago it snowed a freezing icy mix
TLC demanded to go outside. So okay, I let him out.
It wasn’t but seconds (a walk down the sidewalk—turn around) and scram back into the house!
I had to laugh out loud.
Yep! Pretty nasty out there you silly kitty!

Waiting, waiting, we are all waiting—but soon now! Soon it will be MARCH!!

I love how it breaks up the Uncompahgre Plateau Range
Or the morning light fills the cracks and crevices on the Uncompahgre Plateau
Or gifts us with a Sundog or is that a rainbow?
And there there is the light through birds’ wings!
Light! Sunshine! Who can ask for more?

I’ve been thinking—it seems like everyone gets to have/experience tough/hard/miserable times
It’s just the way the Universe helps us become better people. Or, if you don’t believe in a higher Power, the way we can learn and experience how to ‘over-come’ obstacles.
(Yes, he got himself down.—Slick as you can please!)
So, we are all very independent in our thinking and therefore our actions…..if something goes South (instead of North)—we find out if we dare to fight on.
(TLC is trying to see if we are home and if he can come in. 🙂 )
And you know something—we usually can. Maybe we need some help from others, but mostly we have to give it our all to make things swing UPward again.
March is coming! YAY!
March is always the start of Spring for Terry and I

If there is one thing, Boo Berry and I are terrified of, it is THIS!
(Glory Bee)
(LaVerne)
(T’Ata)
They like to kick small furry (and absolutly darling little animals).
So we try to never go out there.
But Dad says they will be going back to their forever home and the farm will open back up for US!
Mom says not long until Spring now!
TLC and Boo Berry
Oh! Please look up! There are so many beautiful things to see in the sky.
And this unique phenomenon is such a joy to experience!
Ice crystals at the edges of clouds.
I don’t see them often, but when I do! OH! THE EXTREME EXCITEMENT I FEEL!
(Taken with my cell phone—too fleeting to hobble to the house to get my camera) 🙂

When I can look across the way — (to the East ) and see the Black Canyon of the Gunnison, all bright and golden. Peaking out of all the Hills and Knobs, Mountains, and other canyons to brighten our lives. Albeit Silently.

A teeny tiny heart
Sitting RIGHT THERE!
A heart for my heart! (There is even a heart cut hole, next to it. Hearts really are everywhere if you just look. 🙂 )
Whistling joy everywhere!
