Excellent news!! On January 31st, my best friend is coming from Massachusetts to visit! Woohoo! It will be a welcome relief for her to get away from the extreme cold. For me? Fantastic to have a friend for exploration!
L, who is coming to visit, prompted the dedication quote in my next book!
“True friends
are often discovered by
unsolicited action and support.
Once found, forever carried within the heart.” – Kallie Knight
“WEATHER” OR NOT WE ARE HAVING FUN…. HAHAHA!
In the northern part of the east coast, in the last two weeks, they have experienced 12-14 plus inches of snow a few times, and quick thaws causing icy roads, walkways along with some flash flooding. They are enduring an ongoing windchill factor that drops the temperature well below zero. New Hampshire and Vermont as well as other parts of the country are experiencing EXTREME Winter!
When one thinks of North Carolina, generally, the mind envisions hot sunny, humid days. Surprise! They DO have winter!
This morning, as I walked the dogs, there was a crisp, crackle to the grass comparable to the sound of the crinkle-crunch of when my cat attempts to sneak into a freshly opened bag of potato chips.
Temperature? Twenty-four degrees!
When I first arrived to North Carolina, it was barely 48 hours following an all time record breaking snowfall. As the last six-ish weeks have flown by, I have experienced, rain, frozen water droplets hanging from the branches, while the ground remained wet but too warm to freeze.
In the last 2 weeks there have been school delays due to icy roads. Sounds like Wintry weather to me!
The temperature ranges from 63-38 degrees during the day, then drops to the 20-30s at night. Mother Nature seems to enjoy the element of surprise as this transpires in no particular order and without warning.
One day I will be a bit hot in my hoodie, the next I have my purple scarf wrapped about my neck as I add a winter coat to take the dogs outside into the brisk air! Three hours later I may be in a hoodie again, with blue skies, sunshine and what I deem to be the perfect not too hot, not too cold temperature.
I have felt blessed, weather-wise, to witness this time of year in Statesville and Troutman, NC!
Well I am off to do more unpacking in hopes of having some sort of order when L arrives!!
❤
Have a wicked awesome Wednesday!!
Kind Regards and #winning- K

Who knew?
Between my parent’s stuff and my children’s stuff from birth through school days into adulthood!
Add years of all my crafts, sewing, woodworking along with miniatures in the 1/12th scale!
Sorting and sorting from nooks, crannies, totes, closets and file cabinets. All tucked away in the garage, storage and closets!
Am I a hoarder or a sentimental Ol’ fool?
Bring on more Kleenex, I’m diving in again!
😳😢

Kind Regards and reminiscing- K

Living off the grid
Boating, camping
And roughing it.
With the sweetest, dearest
Person I know,
My lifetime love.
Sharing silliness,
Warm hugs
Gentle to passionate
Kisses
and lover’s whispers.
Not caring
Whether skies are blue
Or gray.
My soul content
Just being with you
Every single day.
Snuggles in the evening,
Spooning all night,
Waking up early to
Morning coffee chit chat.
Gardening, fishing
Living off brook
And land.
Our own special world,
Hiking the forests
Feeling that spark
As you reach out
To take hold of my hand.
Sitting together
Making s’mores
Over campfire flames.
In the middle of
Our wood.
Oh what a dream life
We would revel in,
If circumstances
Changed and
And the universe
Opened, so that we could.
❤️🌎❤️

An early morning dew
Covered the sprinkling
Of oranges, yellows
And red,
Amongst the
variegated green,
Covered mountains,
Due to Falls arrival.
A brilliant, beautiful,
Colorful display,
Before the winter
Which I dread.
🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲🌲
Give it a try!
❤️
Kind Regards – K
