Sunny skies today, but cold still. Looks like folks in the mountains will see more snow chances today..sitting here wishing on grocery order. Haven't seen any squirrels in a while.

Merry Christmas !

   Yeah, those icicles are dangerous and have been known to kill people.. Can you imagine one of those pointed heavy things falling on someone's head.. I'm glad the bear keeps an eye on you.. He's making sure you're not getting into mischief.. lol.. It's gonna be snowy here too.. It's snowing right now.. Suppose to get around 5 inches, but time will tell.. All those acorns are still laying under the trees.. The snow has them covered over.. There are a few deer that stop by to eat some, but that's just a snack to them.. They are looking for something more filling.. By next summer the acorns will be rotted by then.. What a waste.. Not enough squirrels around here to eat them.. Did you ever cut up pieces of apples and throw out in the yard? They will eat apples if cut up.. They might like to try something different once in awhile..

Hi Rick! Ft Worth isn't too far away from us, it'll take about 30 min to get to where the hospital is. We haven't been there, but we have GPS, so that'll help us. Yes, it took awhile, but once they got the orders, it's moved fast, I've already gone to my primary care doctor to make sure I was healthy enough for the surgery, EKG, blood work, how fast my blood clotted, and urine sample to make sure I don't have any unknown infection going on....I should be all clear...will know by Friday at the latest....my doctor likes the orthopedic doctor that I've been seeing and will be doing the surgery..so that's great!
Enjoy your evening. I'm watching "THE FIRST CHRISTMAS" by Kevin Costner...

Currently 37..sun came out briefly..looks like mid 50's the next 6 days. Folks N got snow..90 minutes u the road. Just rain here, but it moved out fast. Got the feeders replenished. -:)

well, I finally know when my knee surgery will be, Wednesday, Dec 17th in Ft Worth,  they didn't even get the surgery orders until yesterday from the office here, once she got the info the surgery coordinator called me this morning to set the appt...so someone here didn't fax it last week.... I could have been having it this week if they had! "rolling my eyes" LOL!

    Good evening Rick - I see you have icicles too.. I like them.. They add something extra to the page.. I like those icicle lights people hang from their porch.. Looks pretty.. Is going to be very cold tonight, going down to 5* they say.. We'll see that in the wee hours of the morning.. Always heard it's the coldest right before the dawn.. Ever heard that before? It's already 11, so it'll be dropping more..
