Winter quote part 2

Winter Quote from Anne of Green Gables
"She had a good sleep that night and awakened in the morning to find herself and the world transformed. It had snowed softly and thickly all through the hours of darkness and the beautiful whiteness, glittering in the frosty sunshine, looked like a mantle of charity cast over all the mistakes and humiliations of the past."
 
In the last few days, we've had snow, freezing rain, sun and fog.  Welcome to winter in the Midwest.  I've been absent from my daily blogging for the last few days, and will keep this entry quite short, as I've been down and out with a horrific cold!  And a cold of the worst kind, one which needs no drugs but just time, rest, fluids and more rest.  I'm proud that I kept the children bathed, fed and safe.  They have been happy as pigs in mud because they got more "screen time" as their typically technology minimalist mama kept falling asleep on the couch when they were watching a movie!  I've been able to work and make sure the animals are fed and watered... but that is pretty much it. 
 
Tomorrow, you can expect a lamb update-- things are going well-- and not, yet another, quote on winter!
 
Stay healthy!
