Hello, friends! As promised, here is what was going on in February. It was a cold month. The first winter in the new house was interesting. We found this is a cold house, even with the heat on. Definitely a "wear your sweater" type of place. I thought having an enclosed front porch would help, but that porch has no heat and so it's like being outside.
Joe was very sweet for Valentine's Day. When I came downstairs, there was a silk rose laying by my breakfast plate. So nice! And I can keep it forever.
Money has been very tight. At one point I had 16 cents to my name for two weeks. Church has been very kind in helping us out with some gift cards for food. I don't know what we would have done without that.
I found some of my outdoor flags and put the holder up in the flower pot on my front stoop. It looked so cute.
I love that I can look at the Delaware River from my front stoop.
There is a lot of businesses around here and those pipes are caring fuel to load on ships. But there is the river with New Jersey in the background. We are just one block from the water.
Back in February was when we had that terrible plane crash in Northeast Philly. It was just a couple of blocks from the library I used to work at. Such a tragedy! It really hit me that plane crashes can happen anywhere.
Well, that's about it for February. On to March next time.
Happy February in June. That is nice to be one block from the water. Will that be a place you can walk along on the river? Churches can be ever so helpful, thank goodness.
