We didn't get as much snow as expected but it still meant a lot of cleanup. Our least favorite chore is clearing around the mailbox so we can get mail. I think we cleared over two feet of snow. 

On Saturday night when I got home I saw our snowmen. They are in rough shape.

I had a nice Valentine's Day with my boyfriend surprising me with a card, chocolates and a frog.

Project complete. We made shelves for the living room. 





 I may change things up. But at least my treasures have a nice place to sit now. 

Already rearranged. Lol

It was a slow week where I worked and didn't do much at home. It's been a quiet weekend compared to last weekend in Pennsylvania.
I did think up a simple project to do. Will post more once it starts to come together.

Happy Groundhog Day!

While in PA we drove south and visited Indiana, PA, the hometown of Jimmy Stewart. It was cool to learn more about the great actor. 



Dad and I :)


We found groundhog beer!

Fireworks before Phil showed up.

Time for the prediction. 









We had fun exploring Punxsutawney, PA.

Phil wasn't home. Maybe next time. 
Groundhogs everywhere.

I attempted some sewing tonight. I learned burlap is not easy to sew with. Not perfect but will look ok on the couch for February. 


Today we went to an estate sale in Bangor. It was an old house that was cool simply to walk around in. I got a potato basket, a press for toast that says good morning. Peter got a circuit board holder like what he used for his senior project for only a $1 and he was given a baseball too. We are curious to see what the house will go on the market for. 


I took the time recently and reorganized the pantry. Eventually I'd like to redo the pantry room and make it more functional. 


I got the trays from Target for $1 each. 

Today I decided to change things up and add some red to decor.

Sadness...the camera on my phone stopped working....which means no photos for me. I'm debating about switching brands once I'm eligible for a new phone. I'm currently waiting for a replacement phone. I will be able to post more once my phone is up and running.

Tonight I made lemon pizza. It was surprisingly tasty. 




A few months ago my grandmother gave me an hot air popcorn maker. Not sure how old the machine is but she said my grandfather loved popcorn. I found some kernels and gave it a try. First I used too small of a bowl and made a mess. Second try went better. 










It snowed today. We took advantage of that and made a snowman. A very short snowman. :)

Last two days were 10 hours each day at work so not very exciting. I did get a note from Peyton though. I think it says Wendy we will go to your birthday party. It was cute because she only asked her dad how to spell my name though my birthday was earlier this month.

Today I grabbed lunch from Schnitzel Maine, a food truck that's in the Kmart parking lot in Bangor. The chicken schnitzel was yummy.

Last week wasn't very exciting and we had freezing rain on Saturday causing me to miss out on Frozen Fenway. :( We watched people sliding around right in front of us so we knew the driving was bad. Our driveway was all ice. Noticed cars driving on the wrong side of the road to avoid the icy southbound lane.

Early birthday party with family for me and my twin sister.
