Niagara Falls in the Winter

 




My sister-in-law went with friends to a winery in Niagara Falls Canada recently.  I thought you would like to see the frozen falls in winter.

New Window Decals

 

I needed new window decals for my windows to prevent the birds from crashing into them.  I am happy with these that I got from Amazon.

A hassle

 I have been waiting for a replacement credit card in the mail since my bank had been notifying me that it is on its way.  I received a notification Jan 27, then Feb3, then Feb 10th. I started to stress. However the new card would require you to make a purchase with your pin to activate.  

After the 3rd notice, I called them to say it hadn't arrived. They said they would courier a new one within 3-5 business days.  My husband made a good point that they should issue a new card with a different number and ability to reset the pin prior to activation as who knows where the current card is.  I decided I would have to call them back with my questions and concerns when the new card arrives.

After all this, the original cards arrived Feb 12, so now I have to wait for the courier cards to arrive before I activate those ones!  

Feb 17th is my departed mom's birthday, she would have turned 88 today.

My Star Amaryllis Plant


 This is the 3rd year this amaryllis plant has bloomed for me.  I am excited at how quickly this bloom appeared.  I had the bulb hibernating since last October and recently replanted it and started watering it.

Happy Family Day!
