Things are changing Part 2

 Howdy, I got some rest last night, I slept to 9 am. Woke up to snow but, not a lot. To start off with I had a weird breakfast this morning,  fruit cake, yep, you heard right, lol.

Slab some butter and you have breakfast.

Last night's dinner was something I haven't had in a long time. Hot Roast Beef sandwich with steamed vegetables.  It was good.

Then, for a late night snack, it got really weird. Cold boiled potatoes with salt and pepper. LOL

Here is a breakfast some of you never heard of  Scrapple, I remember my mom making it as a little kid. You slice it and pan fry it to a golden brown.

Here is the package listing the ingredients. 

Took a couple of photos of Mt. Denali and Mt. Foraker a couple of days ago.

          Driving into the Village of Willow.

Well, that's enough for today,  I still have more to post and will do so in a couple of days. Thanks for checking in. Take care.

Things are changing PART 1

 Hi everyone, I finally got all the sides done on the cabin.

The spot on the back wasn't done because,  I decided I want to add a pantry for food, dishes and pots and pans. 

I had to hire a guy with a tractor and scoop to come and clean out the snow. Being without my snowblower due to being broke down, the ruts were to deep.

He did a great job, cleaned it down to the gravel.

Now that I have my snowblower back,  I can clean the yard up a little better.

A couple of mornings ago, I headed to town and the Sun was just coming up, about 10:30 am.

Well, I started this post too late and it's after midnight so, I am calling it a night. This is a long post so, I will resume tomorrow.  Check back in.

   

                    Goodnight 

What's happening?

 Hi folks, I know it's been awhile and I apologize for the delay. This is to let you know everything is fine. Wednesday,  I had a colonoscophy, (sp?), they found one polyp and removed it and discovered I have an Ulcer. They are doing a biopsy and will let me know what is going on. 

The weather has gotten warmer. Middle 30's and today it's slightly raining. This is such a relief from the snow and minus 30's. I am finishing working on the inside of my cabin so, I have more room and looks nicer. I will do another blog in a day or two with photos and I think you will like it.

Someone asked if I was still moving to Upstate, N.Y. I have to say, it's up in the air right now. I will expand on it more at a later time. Thanks for sticking with me.

                     Take care

Merry Christmas everyone

                    MERRY CHRISTMAS

                               EVERYONE

          I really love this special time of the year 

Winter is wonderful

 Good morning everyone. Well, it snowed again last night and my snowblower broke down because, the choke was frozen from all the very cold weather. When we got the first snow, I started it up and the choke was frozen. Because I forced it, it broke and am waiting on a new carburetor to come from the East coast. 

So I am waiting for my neighbor to come with his 4wheeler and plow  me out. Here is the new snow from last night.

As you can see, I used a lot of wood.

Not to worry,  my friend Matt hooked me up with close to a cord of wood.

Because today is a bit cold and I am waiting on a new pair of gloves,  I will stack the wood when it warms up or the gloves come. 

More snow

I got the Christmas spirit this year and it really feels nice. I really like this Wreath.

       New Christmas tree

                   Inside

I bought 2 of these for outside.

As you see, I put the new siding on the front

       The new look

I have been downsizing inside a lot and have made the interior more cozy. I got rid of the big recliner because,  it took up to much room.  Here is what the inside looks like. It is a little messy but, it will soon look much nicer.

I was looking for a small couch that fit in the cabin.

I plan on finding a more rustic cover for the couch.

I bought these pillows for the couch, they looked festive.

I am sitting here with my fire and drinking tea as I make this blog. 

I bought a new air purifier to clean up the air from the wood stove. It seems to work well.

I bought a new Mr. Buddy heater that came out it provides 180 degree Omni directional heat and 8,000 btu to 11,000 btu's you can also turn it into a cooking stove. This heater is great.

Well, I hope you enjoy this blog. I have really got into the Christmas spirit this year and I am not sure what made it so but, am glad it happened. My Christmas wish to everyone is that you will please, help someone less fortunate. This year, I purchased a lot of toys and distributed them to the many Toys for Tots barrels and it makes me feel good to provide a child with some happiness.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE. 

Finally, Winter has arrived

 Hi folks, finally Winter is here and today it is 22F a little overcast but, still bright. The minus 25 degree weather  for 2 weeks made it impossible to have much fun. I started off this morning with a nice breakfast.

                                Decided to go outside and split some firewood. This is what it looked before.

                             This is how it looks now after the cold spell we had.

                       Here's Aurora playing in the snow. She loves to roll in the snow 

            I am changing the outside look of my cabin, something a little more cheerful.

                                           Getting ready to split firewood.

I split this log and both pieces went right into the sled, that will never happen again, LOL.

These Birch trees look so nice in the Winter. 

Trees look so nice when covered with snow. 

I changed my kitchen around, still have more work to do. Gonna add shelves on the wall.

I am in the process of downsizing and sold my big refrigerator and replaced it with a smaller one.

Here is what the living room looks like now, kinda messy but, I will soon start getting rid of things there as well.

There are a lot of  changes coming up. I will close for now and will be working on another blog.  Thanks for those of you who stuck by me.
