We had snow here in Chiswick yesterday. It came down like a blizzard for all of 5 seconds, then stopped. I don't know whether we'll get anymore or not, but it sure is cold enough for it.

another sunny but cold sharp morning not as windy as yesterdasay no lambs in the fields yet..they are all tucked up in barns to try to rear them...the ewes are out though until they lamb some one I know down the road has 4 she is having to hand rear in the kitchen.......one tiny little thing born quickly before the ewe could be taken into the barn..its wearing a baby jumper. ..I heard of one farmers wife who knits lamb jumpers out of bits of wool to a design she has created....she knits when ever some one gives her wool so she always has a stock come lambing time still the buds haven't broken and that merest glimpse of green is all we have to show for spring there is only one road nearby that is still impassable and is nothing more than a sheet of ice..though there are still great wedges of snow along the road sides

We've finished painting at last; it got severely slowed down by the illness and death but we finished it at long last!
It makes the house look brighter and cleaner.

Sheep are not a common farm animal in this part of the country. All that sounds very exotic, mouse.
Good for you, Linda. Paint can work wonders!
The cold does not want to leave here in the eastern U.S. either. Our weather this week has NOT been seasonable.
I have a dentist appoint, but just for a cleaning. Nothing to dread.

it sprinkled this morning and was overcast and now the sun is breaking through my jasmine plant is blooming and smells wonderful plus another plant I bought two years ago is finally full of leaves I'm happy cause I found a classmate on facebook that I haven't talked to in 45 years so it is good to find these people as it helps keep things in perspective and helps me remember who I am and where I came from Well done Chef, that must have been amazing to talk to your old friend after all those years. I've been looking for my mum's cousin's son on FB for ages and can't find him. He lives in Connaught Ohio and works on the Great Lakes. I suppose not everyone is on FB believe it or not! Wish I could find him and have a chat though.
