Just shovelled a path out to the bird feeders and hung a new ball of suet. And I can see deer, pawing through the snow looking for their corn (maize).<br />I hope that by now your eyebrows have stopped stinging and you have had at least a breath of fresh air.<br />Sending virtual hugs,<br />mary GMARY Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178370815712313585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573997081449536840.post-27795863629231659712015-02-02T18:55:00.322+00:002015-02-02T18:55:00.322+00:00No snowdrops here either but we can see the daffs!...No snowdrops here either but we can see the daffs!

Before he arrived to cheer me up I was feeling closed in. So now I'm hoping that something has come along to make your day cheerful, too. Flowers, sunshine, little children -- we do need them. <br />dianefaithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07229979968118248563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573997081449536840.post-76268885453665930582015-02-01T22:22:10.652+00:002015-02-01T22:22:10.652+00:00I know like Joni sang "We don't know what...I know like Joni sang "We don't know what we got until it's gone."<br /><br />So very true.<br /><br />The snowdrops will come.

I'm sure they'll appear soon and so will yours and then hopefully life will seem a bit brighter. Can Harry see your garden from the house?
