Bill's sister came

She and her husband come once a year to visit his mother in Jackson., (She is 96, and still lives alone.) Usually we meet somewhere between, but this time they came over to Caro. We took them out for lunch and visited a while, then they headed back. They had another engagement for the evening. Was good to see them. Sure wish we didn't live so far apart, but seems like I'm saying that about a lot of people lately. :-)

Afterward we went to visit a couple of friends and sat by their pond, watching the BIG (at least to me) fish and the wild turkeys wandering around. As usual, when I'm around, deer stay out of sight. Nice place, but I still prefer living where there are sidewalks. Good to have places like that to visit, though.

We've had a little rain the last few days, but still lots of sunshine and warm temps. Wish it would stay like this until April. No--guess I really don't, or I'd probably be moving to one of those states where it is like that all year. I do enjoy most of the winter--except when I have a dog old enough to make it hard on him--and seems like I've had a lot of those the last few years.

Anyhow, my livingroom is cleaned up except for one corner and I'm working on that. Toby loves it; he has a lot of space to play with his towel and tennis ball. I believe he thinks I did it just for him.
