Happy Friday all! If you're a regular reader here, you probably know that we love to watch our backyard birds. We used to have feeders hanging under the eaves of our screened porch, and we could see the birds through our kitchen window. They were always fun to watch.
There have been changes, large and small, in most households I imagine, with so many folks working from home since last March. The same is true at our house. I have loved having Mr. Forest Manor working here at home -- it just makes the house feel less empty. He works in the back of the house, and I mostly stay in the front, so I try not to bother him during the work day. However, it's just nice to know he's there. One of the changes that has come about here is a small thing, but such a difference for me.
Hello Dear Ones! Are you having a good January so far? I hate that it's been two weeks since I last posted, but I've had after-Christmas cleanup to do here. What a good feeling to get things put back in their places until next year! Hal installed some new shelves for me in two of our closets back in the summer, and they are proving to be oh-so-handy. How have you been keeping yourself occupied in this winter season? As I mentioned above, I've been putting things away, as well as sweeping and dusting. I've also been reading. I mean to start keeping a list of what I read each year because sometimes just looking back to the previous year, I can't always remember exactly what I read during that time. I'm convinced that part of the reason for this is that time flies by so quickly anymore, something I think occurred just a year or two ago actually happened five years ago. Does that happen with you too?
Happy New Year all! Wishing each of you the very best in the coming year! Blessings,
