Was busy all day..2 meetings . one planned meeting. Got some baking done and made some soap..Not sure it is going to turn out..The fat was kind of old. I had thought about going back to the butchers shop to get some fresh tallow, but went with the vegetable fat that I usually use.. Think it was a mistake. Will check it in a few days and make a decission then..  Eryn is doing okay with her new classes..They of course want the kids to watch the News to keep up with events...Not the weather I have been told..LOL..LOL..LOL...  Eryn will have a foods class this time around so am really sure she will have a great time.  Going painting tomorrow and am not making any plans to do a whole lot of stuff..  Been working on the house really hard to get all these projects done..  Of course the floors need doing again, but other than that I think I am going to take a day off..!!  Hope you have a lovely time with your friend tomorrow and the weather holds for the 2 of you..!!  Have a lovely day.. Loads of Love and Hugs..XX

Hi Patricia..I forgot to send the second photo.. I was on the trail that comes down from the falls to the River so a little different..It was suppose to be an awful rainy windy cold day this morning, but turned out to be warmer than we though and just windy so I headed out..Tonight is not the same..Real ugly out there..!!!     Rain wind and chilly..!!  The River is  up pretty high.  Rain will fill up the lakes soon then we get the super heavy flows..  There has been so very little snow on the mountains this year  so far.. Hoping that we get some in Feb. That is the summer water supply for us..!!  I was wondering how the chats were going with your son after all this time.. Do you know why he all of a sudden decided to call again..???  How old is he.??  Does he have any children..??  Would be nice to be a grandma to them if you were..
