Happy Tuesday

Another weekend over and we are home again.  I do have to share just one more thing regarding the snow last week. I promise I will stop over sharing after this!!  Living on the sound is truly amazing in that I've been very lucky to see many furry friends I had never seen. OK, I said all of that to tell you this... When I get up every morning I look outside to my beautiful view and over the past few mornings there has been a thin sheet of ice covering the water.  When I opened the blinds on Saturday, this is what I saw:


This cute heron stood on the frozen sound for at least two hours. We thought maybe he was stunned by the fact he was actually STANDING on the water or his talons were frozen to the ice. Poor little guy. We did see later he had left but didn't get to see his departure.  OK, I'm finished talking about the snow. 


In other news, according to Punxsutawney Phil, (Punk-sit-taw-nee), that cute pudgy groundhog, we are in for six more weeks of winter. Hmmmm, I am not excited about that.  Even the local celebrity furry groundhog in Raleigh, Sir Walter Wally, agrees with Phil in his acclamation of cold weather continuing. Brrrrr.



Such sad news came out this weekend saying Philip Seymour Hoffman died, apparently from an overdose.  Another talented actor consumed by drugs.  I read today the investigators found heroin in his apartment in Manhattan, so sad.  He was a great actor and he will be missed.  Prayers go out to his family and especially his three children.


I just realized this post has been kinda depressing.  I'll try to be more positive in the next one. 
Have a great week.

 XoXo -T
