  • One Day at a Time

    Evelyn 'E.T.' Trevathan|May 16, 2024

    Well is a cool morning here in our little valley, it was 46 degrees early this morning. Now the sun is shining and it is warming back up fast. The cats were hungry this morning and all three of them were up and waiting on their breakfast. The birds are now singing and some are busy at the bird feeders. Bobby keeps the feeders full and the birds sure do enjoy them and we sure enjoy watching the birds, you would be amazed at all the different kinds of birds in our backyard. It has been a very busy and rough week. We sure have had some very...

    Well it is a nice cool morning here in our little valley. Last night we heard rumbles of thunder and got a shower of rain. This morning everything is wet, but the grass is green and the flowers are blooming, everything liked the rain. The cats were up early this morning for their breakfast. They sure like this nice warmer weather, after they eat breakfast they find themselves a cool spot, usually on the porch and take naps for most of the day, unless they see us outside then they want us to pet them or go for a walk with them. This has been ano...

    Well it sure is a quiet and peaceful morning here in our little valley. There is a little cool breeze blowing and there is a few clouds, but the sun is shining. I am sitting out on the front porch and I have a small blanket and my coffee with me. The cats were here earlier and ate their breakfast, now that they are full they have gone to take their morning nap. Bob is finishing washing the breakfast dishes and then he will join me on the porch with his coffee. I think the weather is supposed to be nice and warm for the next few days The...

    Well it is a beautiful morning here in our little valley. It was a little cool on the front porch at 46 degrees but we have been getting a little rain, but now the sun is out and shining. The cats were ready for their breakfast, they ate and have now gone to take a nap. Bob is washing the breakfast dishes and making the kitchen spotless. In a few minutes we will have our coffee but we will probably not sit out on the porch because it is a little too cool this morning. For breakfast I made a big pan of cathead biscuits and some brown country...

    Well it is a cool Spring morning here in our little valley, the sky is blue, the sun is shining, everything is greening out and some of the bigger flowers are blooming out. The days are getting warmer and longer, soon we will start having some real warm springtime weather, and I am ready for it. Springtime is good, but when it gets to be Summer and we start having hot days, I will be complaining about it being too hot. The cats were not in a hurry for their breakfast this morning. They all three slept late this morning, but they eventually got...

    Well it is a cool morning here in our little valley, the sun is shining and the wind is getting up. We recently had a little more frost, one time it was 31 degrees here on the porch. On those cold mornings the cats stayed in their beds, all three of them were snuggled together, but when the sun began to shine on the porch, they got up and they were ready for their breakfast and for some warm milk. Someone asked me the other day who spoiled the cats, was it me or Bob? Well it was Bob, he can go outside and if they hear his voice then they come...

    Well it is a beautiful morning here in our little valley. It was cool here but we did not have any frost, there for a few mornings we did have a little frost on the roofs. We can still have some very cool mornings and a little frost, but after April 15th it should be warm until Fall. The cats were up and waiting for their breakfast. When it is really cold or storming they do not want to get up early. But today the sun is shining and the birds are singing, so the cats were up and ready for their day. When I went out to feed the cats, I heard som...

    Well it is a cool morning here in our little valley. We had some rain last night but today the sky is blue and the sun is shining. This weather sure is unpredictable, it can change quickly. The cats were here early this morning and ready for their breakfast. The wind is blowing pretty hard and they do not like it, but they are more hungry than scared. Bob is washing the breakfast dishes and he will soon have my kitchen spotless. It sure is nice to have a good dishwasher, I think I will keep him. We have had another busy week. We did some more...

    Well it is a little cool this morning here in our little valley. The sun is shining and the sky is blue. The cats were up and ready for their breakfast this morning. I do not think they like the time changes, I guess it takes everybody a good while to get used to going back or forward an hour. Our fruit trees are blooming. We have been having some very cool mornings with some light frost. I hope the frost has not got all the fruit, now a days it is hard to have fruit trees in a valley and next to a creek. Bob has got the breakfast dishes done... Full story

    Well it is a cool morning here in our little valley. The weather is trying to change and warm up, they have been forecasting rain with fog and sunshine with frost, but thankfully no more snow and ice until next Winter. The cats were here early for breakfast They do not like this high March wind, when things start blowing around they get spooked. They ate breakfast and then went and got back in their beds to take a catnap until the wind dies down. When I went out to feed the cats it looked like snow on the ground, all the high wind had blown a...

    Well it is a quiet and peaceful morning here in our little valley. It seems like these days are quickly getting warmer, but this last Friday it was cool enough that we had a little fire in the old wood heating stove. The cats were here early this morning for their breakfast, they ate and then got back into their beds for a morning cat nap, they have a rough life. Bob is washing our breakfast dishes, and I am having my coffee and just enjoying this morning. You have to enjoy the good moments when you can, soon I will have to get busy because we...

    Evelyn 'E.T.' Trevathan, Weekly Contributor|Feb 29, 2024

    Well we have been having some beautiful and sunny, but cool mornings here in our little valley. We have also had just a few much needed rainy mornings. This morning the sun is bright and the sky is blue, the wind is blowing and the trees are budding out. The patch of buttercups out by the old tree stump are so pretty, but we are at that time of year where the weather can change quickly. By the time you all are reading this the weather may have changed completely, it could be raining or even snowing. Friday is the 1st of March and it is an...

    Well all these cold fronts that we have been having lately, they all have been coming in fast, it seems like it is warm one minute and freezing the next minute. The temperature sure changes in a hurry, it was almost 70 degrees here on the front porch and it dropped down to 38 degrees in no time at all. This weather warms up then it turans cold again, but of course we are still in Winter. It has been being cold in the mornings and the cats have been really hungry, it does not take them long to drink their bowl of warm milk and clean their...

    Well it is a beautiful morning here in our little valley, the sun is shining and it is warm. They say there maybe a little rain later this week, but right now we are going to enjoy the warm weather while we can because we all know that Winter is not over yet. The cats are really enjoying this warmer weather, they were ready for their breakfast early this morning, when it was really cold they did not want to get up early. The neighbor’s cows were walking and grazing in their pasture next to the house, there were two or three young calves just a...

    Well we have been getting some much needed rain here in our little valley, they are calling for clearer and sunny weather, but I think I heard that they are still calling for a day or two of a little snow, but it still is wintertime. The cats were here early this morning for their breakfast and the birds were at the bird feeders. I think everyone was hungry. The rain we got was good because they said we were in a drought area. There was a lot of water flowing in our creek and the water was washing all the debris out and there was also water...

    Well last week we had some bad cold weather here in our little valley, lots of mornings it was in the single digits with snow and ice everywhere, but this week they called for warmer weather and for rain almost every day. After the freezing rain I looked down by the creek and all the trees looked like they were made of glass, they were covered in ice, it was so pretty. Ice had covered all the snow and everything, it was so cold. I know some of you are saying, well E.T. got her snow that she wanted. It sure was pretty but after several days of...

    Well it is a cold winter morning here in our little valley. The sun is shining and there is no wind blowing right now. The wind sure has been blowing over the last few days, I can not remember us ever having wind this high for this many days. The wind has been so cold and high, you can not stand to be out in it for long at a time. I know we always have a lot of wind in March, but never this bad and in January. With all this winter weather forecasted I have got my bread and milk, I do not know why when there is a forecast for any kind of bad...

    Well we have been having a few cold and cloudy days here in our little valley, we have been getting some rain and on a lot of days it has been really overcast, we have even had some foggy mornings. The cats were ready for a warm breakfast, they ate in a hurry and went to get back in their warm beds. Bob is washing the breakfast dishes and when he finishes the kitchen will be spotless. The house is nice and warm. The old wood heating stove is doing a good job, I put firewood in it a little while ago and now outside I can see the smoke drifting...

    Well it is a cold and cloudy wintry morning here in our little valley. It looks like it could snow but I have not seen any yet. The house is good and warm and I have got a cup of hot coffee and it sure is good. The cats have had their bowl of warm milk, I gave them a plate of warm food and they quickly ate all of it up, they sure were hungry. All the cats have now gone and gotten back into their warm beds. Someone the other day ask me if the cats were spoiled, and I said well maybe a little! It is all Bob’s fault, but I can not say much a...

    Well it is a warmer than usual morning here in our little valley, we did get a little rain but now the sun is trying to shine through the clouds, but I think we might get some more rain.

They have now finished their breakfast and have gone off to take their naps until it is time to get up and play or time to eat supper. The other day Bobby put some bird feed in the feeders in the backyard, and this morning around the feeders there were a lot of pretty red Cardinals...

    Well it is a cool morning here in our little valley, it has not been real bad cold yet this winter, but I think next week a front is suppose to come through and then it is going to turn colder, hopefully by Christmas day it will really feel like winter. The cats were already up this morning and here for their breakfast, but they do not like these colder days, they ate in a hurry and went back to their beds. I have got my Christmas tree lights on and my Christmas music playing and I have got a cup of hot coffee, it sure is a nice morning. We do...

    Well it is a cloudy and windy morning here in our little valley, it is not really cold and we did have some fog earlier but now it is moving out and clearing up. The cats were here early this morning and ready for their breakfast, now they have gone off to find a nice place to take a catnap. I am enjoying my coffee and I have my Christmas music on, there are several channels on TV now that are playing Christmas music all day. I also of course already have my Christmas trees up and the lights on. I love early mornings and of course I love this...

    Well it is a cool morning here in our little valley, the nights have been cold but the days are warm. It will not be long until it gets cold and stays cold, then we will need a fire in the old wood heating stove. The guys came and put a lot of firewood on the back porch, I can always depend on them to take care of our firewood, thanks Hunter and Kaleb. The cats did not come up early this morning to eat their breakfast, they stayed in their good warm beds as long as they could, but now they have finished their breakfast and are enjoying the...

    Well it is a cool morning here in our little valley. We got that much needed rain, now it is really beginning to feel like Fall. Almost all the leaves are gone off the trees here in our yard. The cats were really hungry this morning and they got their bowl of warm milk and now they are really enjoying the warm sunshine. We had to have a little heat on this morning, but we did not build a fire in the old wood heating stove. We have had a busy week, we got some more of our Christmas decorations up, we are not going to put up as much as we used...
