Hello everyone,
We are having a wonderful time here on our side of the mountain on Thanksgiving. Hoping all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving also. We are very thankful for many many things around our home. We thank God each and every day for all he has given us.
Our three chickens are going to have a wonderful lot of extra goodies also. We will be adding more chickens this spring because our old gals are taking the winter off, no eggs. I hate buying eggs in a store, they never taste the same.
The poor stray cat has come around after a whole year of not trusting us to at least hang around more and more. We now have a heated dog crate for him, and on these cold nights, he stays in there. Also, on rainy and snowy days, he is close by. He even sniffed my hand the other day, which means his head was only 2 inches from my hand. That is a first for him. He also disappeared for about 2 days a few days ago, when he did show up, he was limping very bad on a front foot. We could see no blood and of course, he would not let us get close to him and never "touch" him. So, there was nothing we could do except wait to see how he did as the days went by. Now he has only a slight limp on that front leg. So, he is getting better thank goodness. We think he either tangled with another loose cat that came around or a wild animal tried to get him. He is becoming more relaxed with us now.
Now that we have the whole property trimmed up and looking open and nice. We are hanging lights from the upper deck now and we will add some around the gazebo this year. We also will be adding our deer and Nita's deer around the yard along with our angel.
We had our first snow about 2 inches very wet. Later it turned to rain, and all was gone. That was about one week ago. Now the lights (blue & white) icicles will look lovely with snow.
Wishing all a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Margo
