It's Going To Be A Long Winter

 Let me begin by saying...I love winter, I love snow, I love being at home.

My hubby and I own a bit of income property and we divide the work that goes along with being landlords and property owners between the two of us.

I have a lot of hobbies and I never seem to struggle keeping myself busy.

With that said, I am going to have to put a little more effort into finding "content" for this space.

Today,

I am going to share some "randomness" as I navigate finding fun things to share with all of you here.

My KC Chiefs lost on Sunday, their season is over.

I will miss seeing them on Sundays, putting on my #15 jersey and rooting for my favorite team.

I will watch the other teams as the playoffs begin, and I am looking forward to watching the Super Bowl.

We live in the suburbs, on a small cul-de-sac, with only 7 other homes...

we have 3 new neighbors.

The Nuttery 

offers great options for gifts like this that I thought were perfect to welcome them to the neighborhood.

I bought 3 of these, all the same and all of the new neighbors are really nice.

I saw these double sided tape rollers on Instagram...

as a crafter and former scrapbooker, I am always in search of good double sided tape.

I ordered these ages ago,

 I had just about given up on ever receiving them and a few days after Christmas, they came.

I can't remember any other details about these, the writing on the box is foreign.

Thinking about next years garden, I again started to dry and save my egg shells.

A few weeks ago I needed some scallions, my plant was all used up.

I bought some and planted the root ends in soil and now they look like this...that was quick.

 

We live on a river and I did not get a before picture.

The reeds and seagrass had grown so high that standing here, you could not see the water.

We hired a company to come in and clear all of the overgrowth and once

again there is a clear sightline to the water.

Our house is 42 feet above the water....it is a large hill which is great for sledding.  

There are a lot of ducks and wildlife in the river.

Unfortunately, once I walk down the hill I am unable to get back up.

It's a great spot with a beautiful view.

The guys did a really good job clearing out all the weeds and overgrowth.
