Carring the hay is a sweet ritual.
I love Maria and her posse—Fate, Zinnia, and Zip—who set out for the morning feeding. I was behind them in my bathrobe. It was 20 Degrees. We’ll take it.
Beautiful landscape. as the sun comes up.
To brush his teeth, silly. I did the research, and it’s true. Cat people also know this, but I didn’t. The vet says his teeth are great.
It’s been months since I could get outside with a flower and my camera in the sun—it’s been too cold, wet, and windy. Yesterday and today were a joy, but I want to make time to fill my cup. It’s great to be out there in the sun and experimenting with the light, my favorite thing.
Sarah is working to stock up on the items she needs so they will be on the shelves for more than a few hours or a day. We’re on a roll. Thank you, and thank you from the hundreds of people who are grateful for your generosity. Few things make me feel better than helping hungry families get food. It is a gift to the heart.
Sarah asks us to keep sending coffee and tea today; see below. Above, you have filled the shelves with hand soap and shampoo. We really appreciate this.
(Thanks for the messages; keep them coming. The volunteers want to know where you live.)

You can look at the Amazon Pantry Food Wish List anytime by clicking on a link or the green button at the bottom of every blog post. Some people are “adopting” food items and buying them in substantial amounts (more than one). That makes a massive difference to the pantry. Thank you.
I have the right to be happy and find peace in my life. It’s not up to them; it’s up to me. I look inside, not outside. The Peckerheds can sting or annoy me but can’t knock me down.
Zip and I are working together now that it’s warmer. He likes to lie in the sun at my feet and then nap there. Seeing him there is nice, and I’m grateful he feels safe enough to sleep at my feet.
Soaking up the sun.
I asked St. Joe to ease up on the cold and bring some warmth. He did.
