We are in the middle of the winter of 2021 / 2022. It has been mild but today we got a windy winter snow storm.
I got up early and fired up the snow blower and cleared the walks and driveway, the wind was howling and I could not see very well doing the walk by the street, I missed the walk and was plowing the grass.
I took a second sweep right before lunch and the neighbor Kyle was doing the walk along the street, so he cleaned up what I had done and I told him I appreciated it very much.
I was glad to have the driveway and walks cleared, it is something I like to have done since I was a young boy always wanting to be ready to get out if we had to. I am not sure why but that is my earliest memory.
Earlier this week, on January 27, 2022 was my Mom’s 91st birthday. We visited her, due to COVID restrictions we had to take a test before entering and also there was a two person limit on visitors. So we worked out a schedule so that Mom would have visitors all day, my sister Virginia started out about 11:00 and we got there about 12:30…. after us was my sister Kathy and after Kathy was my nephew Michael and his family.
I continue to pick up milk from Ashley and bring to the local Food Bank every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I have also started to do food shopping for an elderly lady in town who can no longer get out on the bus.
I also bake every week and I have started to record the process on YouTube.

Have a good day and bring on spring!
How lucky you are to have your Mother and she is so beautiful at 91!! It’s hard to believe my Mother is gone 28 years. I know she is with me but it’s not the same. That’s a lot of snow to move. Thank God for the snow blower! If I’m being honest, I kind of miss the snow but not having to move it.
