Another early AM, 20 degrees, and dry. Used the ice melt broadcaster on the driveway for the first time yesterday. Was a wet day and expected things to be slick this AM. It worked!!!!---but then realized the whole neighborhood is also dry and no ice. Think the weatherman has some holdings in the ice melt industry---it did not stay wet, freeze, snow as predicted.
Pretty much a quiet day yesterday, Went to Mass in AM, stopped on the way home to gas up, pick up a newspaper, spent most of the day fixing a soup, reading, and watching football by the fireplace with the 3 "boys." Also, restocked the firewood in between football and broadcasting the ice melt in the driveway.
Off to Mass this AM, volunteer awhile at the rectory, make some phone calls, pick up the house, and go through those papers in the office. Have a nice week planned--Holy Day tomorrow, Advent Retreat/Mass/lunch on Wednesday, possibly another movie in the works before the week is over and eating soup everyday. Usually do not eat crackers in my soup anymore--tear apart and eat a Cibata roll with it instead of the crackers. Cannot believe how much stuff I added to the soup--lentils, green chilies, tomatoes, cabbage, onions, celery, red wine vinegar, chicken, chicken/vegetable broth with a heaping teas. of cumin. 
Pic of the Day: Miniature Daffodils--taken this Spring. They have come up for several years and happy to say they are spreading. It is so great to see them pop through the ground before anything else---sure sign of Spring.
Hope you have a great start to your week. Stay healthy, be safe, and keep in touch.
Love, Mom
