It's hard to get a clear picture of this handsome fellow from my bedroom window, but if I tried to go outside, I'd scare him away (and I'd have to take all that time to bundle up). So, enjoy the pop of chubby redness amidst the snow and pine. He's nice company.
His bright color is such a pleasant sight during this long sunless spell we've been having while I'm fighting catching the cold that's going around and feeling lethargic.
But still, on to this week's goals...
Homemaking
* Make a big pot of chicken soup using frozen broth
* Continue this week's assignment of Joy's organizing challenge
* Dehydrate more apples
Homesteading
* Continue research on meat rabbits and quail
* Empty shed as much as possible with snow in the way
* Assess seed collection and order any necessities

* J.N.
* D.B?

* Baste Autumn Jubilee 2023?

Whew! I'm exhausted just looking at that list. I'm sure once I conquer this cold lethargy I'll be right at it.
May your goals go well this week.
Love the pretty pop of color in the bushes... he is keeping you company while you are not well by the looks of it! Hope you feel better soon... you've got a good list of things to do this week, but take it easy too! Thanks for joining in on Monday This and That! xx
