Sunshine At Last!

I was standing here in my usual spot at the peninsula in the kitchen earlier this morning, catching up on happenings in the cyber-world while the dogs and cats were finishing their breakfast, and something wonderful happened.  After seven consecutive days of grey, wet weather, we have bright sunshine and blue sky outside! 

View from my spot at the peninsula through our dining room window, toward our barn at the back of the property.

 

 

It is windy and cold, but that's okay ... the sun is out, and I am going to need sunglasses when I go out to the store later today.  There sunshine puddles throughout the house for the cats to enjoy, and the baby roses in the greenhouse should be warm and toasty by mid-afternoon. (I'm not running the heat in there this winter, so solar heat is all it gets.)

 

Later today, if everything goes even remotely as planned, I expect to be hanging clothes in our new master bedroom walk-in closets!  (cue the happy dance!)  Finishing the outer part of the new wall, with all the doors and molding?  I'm going to make like Scarlett O'Hara on this one ... tomorrow (or whenever) is another day.
