Well..it's a glorious sunny day..Cold.. but in the sun it's warm, and most of the Winds have stopped.

I looked out and I had several large flower planters and a huge Tarpaulin, in my garden which had flown over the fences,obviously belonging to various neighbours , but whose I have no idea, so I'll wait until I see folks or let them knock my door and ask if I have them .... :D
However my lawn was in a terrible mess... completely covered with broken branches and laurel leaves thick as a carpet . I swept up the paths first, then I mowed the whole lawn, it was the only way to get the leaves up quickly, because my back was already really hurting from sweeping the paths so I wasn't about to use a rake...😖

Just to make things a little more joyful, the Barn alarm malfunctioned and regardless of what code I put in, it kept going off... and then... as I was putting the tools away in the Shed, I noticed that the small electric Dehumidifier which hangs on a hook in there had frozen solid overnight , so I couldn't get the drawer full of water to release... .I ended up unplugging it all and running it under the hot tap in the kitchen.
The dehumidifier in the Barn is much larger and the water from that goes out through a hose into the garden.. but the shed one needs emptying manually every few days because it's so small .

Finally I got the Barn alarm to stop malfunctioning..how ?..I have no idea but it did..

Anyway.. my back is killing me now , but I had to get all of that work done while the sun shone.. and it will be dark again in about an hour and a half.. ( before 4pm)... so I'm just having some hot tea.. and I'm going to have a quick hot shower now...and hope the Amazon delivery doesn't get here while I'm in there 😃
 

Woke up to big beautiful snowflakes flurrying around. They have become smaller and lesser, but I think it's going to continue through the day. It's -2C and finally feeling like winter.

We went out yesterday to pick up a few groceries, so, today's a stay-in day. Laundry is calling ..

There's probably a flaw in my character. I don't like hummus. Now that I think about it, I don't like escargot, either. I don't give a rat's rear whether food is gluten-free or keto-friendly. Is there any hope for me?

Nope, we are both doomed 😊. I don’t even know what gluten is, I put out beer in pie pans in my garden so the live escargot can die happy, and I have found keto to be unfriendly. @GeorgiaXplant
 
OMGOSH I just got “a does not make sense call“ from my sons group home manager. I’ve had it with these people! Stupid woman was yelling at me. Anyhow, called the police and asked them to do a welfare check on my son.

I am so not in the mood for this crap!
 
Another very sunny day... woke up to snow and cars all iced up, but it melted quite quickly in the sun, It's 3 deg C now at mid-day.... and everyone is walking around muffled up..so it's feeling very cold with the wind chill

laundry done , dried and put away.., vacc'ing done...usual chores all done... Been up since 6am.. couldn't sleep..

Not intending to go anywhere today..just waiting now for the new De-humidifier for the shed to arrive
