I Wish I Had a River

Winter doldrums have set in again. I'm sure it is because I'm sick...and Dom's sick...but things here have been very quiet.

There's been a little bit of this...

And all kinds of that...














And somewhere in the middle it snowed...

And Tugger developed a nasty drug habit...oops, nope, still snow...

and then we noticed robins across the street, invading our neighbor's yard...

And that was picturesque for a few hours...but then it seemed like they were casing our house...and the situation transitioned into creepy.

And sure enough, we awoke this morning to this in our holly tree:







And by noon, the tree was bare and there was a Henry VIII style berry buffet for all Robins in the NY metro area happening on our lawn.

Luckily, I took these yesterday




And when I turned around, the sun was doing pretty things on the piano, so I got that too!

So everything at the Hogan-Stanzione household is good. We've settled in for a long winter's nap and are fighting the same flu that the entire Eastern seaboard has contracted. Our warmest wishes to you and your families and we'll touch base again soon!
