Today is a holiday because of veteran's day so my husband is outside working on strengthening the gazebo roof for winter and putting a large tarp on the grass in front of the house for when the snowblowers pass.
Let's start this right off. Snow, snow, snow in the forecast

New tree we got for the basement - it is up!
(Rebecca starts singing) Snow, snow, snow! It won't be long before we'll all be there with snow! LOL! Now I'm going to have to watch WHITE CHRISTMAS! Thanks, Lucie! LOL! We've got snow, too. Been snowing all day and I'm loving it! Looks like you've got a busy day in the works and your menus look GREAT! Love the tree in the basement! Blessings for a great week ahead! <3
ReplyDeleteHave a great week too
DeleteWow, you are on top of things in regard to Christmas over there! Still trying to figure out the idea of a tarp over the lawn for snow blowing. Does it cover the whole area that would normally be mowed? Clearly, I have no idea. Don't think it's something done in this area. Fun shirt & nice tree. Hope you have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteThe tarp covers a part of the area that is to be mowed so that it's easier to clean up in the spring (rocks get thrown over the lawn with the snowblower).
Deleteyour tree is up! Are you French yourself or just living in France, or am I totally off the road? (no surprise there) I enjoyed seeing all the "done" next to your to do list!

I'm French from Quebec Canada.
DeleteI love crossing off things on my to-do lists, means we are advancing.
Looks like you got a GREAT start on your To Do list. I'm envious of your snow - it's unusually dry here so far this year. I love the idea of the basement tree. Have a WONDERFUL week.
ReplyDeleteWe got snow part of the day today, 5 inches are on the ground.
ReplyDeleteWow. I thought our weather was cold. Brr. Have a great week!
