Can A Cold Sunday Be Beautifully Sublime?
Taken with the fisheye lens of my S20 through my dirty dining room window! Hey at 15F out and snow on the ground, I was not venturing onto the balcony to freeze my tuchus just for a cleaner shot lol!

Well I guess old Hank just about summed up these days pretty well. Our Federal Reserve seems to be bound and determined to crush this market before we even get out of this pandemic. I know Bari Weiss told Bill Maher she is all done with Covid, here in the US I dont think Covid is done with us as we have new cases bouncing around a million people a day.
And all that noise has left our Hive hanging by a fingernail at 80 some cents!
The Beautiful Sunday and Sublime Sunday tags are some of my faves! I want to thank @ace108 for running the beautiful Sunday tag every week and keeping such detailed stats and supporting the accounts. Also, a shout out to @c0ff33a for the sublime Sunday tag where your random Sunday posts are always welcome!
So just to prove my theory that there usually is some ying and yang to daily life, here is some decent news:
My orchids that I have had for ages. They were flowering when I bought them, never bloomed once since in years! Talk about a bait and switch. Might remind some of y'all about marriage, but I wont go there lol.
It may have taken it a while, but if it does what it looks like it is going to do, we are going to be in for a show!!! Even my baby one has got it going on!!
Many of you know I leave my computer glass sides off and open the case all the way because I am always mining crypto and it gets hot in there.
It makes enough heat that it is almost like a desk top mini space heater lol.
However today I saw a potential problem...
This little bugger decided to leave my jungle of indoor plants to enjoy that heat and the open door policy lol.
He was quickly relocated to plants in another room.
I dont think he has much time left, so no little buggers were harmed in the making of this post :)
It was pretty cool (cool being the operative word) seeing this guy get dragged around the lake by a kite while on some skis!
And now these guys are whipping around in the fresh snow on there four wheelers!
Whoa too cold for me. It is currently 4F or -15C. Either way you slice it, it is cold!
Lets warm up with a nice hot Sam,
grilled cheese and ham,
I am, said Sam...
Ok I am not Dr Seuss lol... but I can make a mean grilled cheese and ham.
Butter up that griddle!
Lay on some ham or roast beef
Next start some bread toasting...
Flip it over and lay on some cheese
Cut diagonally and enjoy!

There is only one way to cut a grilled cheese... diagonally. This is one of the big debates but not really 😀
This sandwich looks amazing and now I'm hungry.
They taste better cut diagonally, its a scientifical fact 🤣
Prices are sure to be going up some more for sure.
I only remember prices going up after interest rates go up despite what monetary supply and demand they taught in economics classes. Here, we are told we will get a GST increase this year. Those guys on the four wheelers look like having fun.
Yeah they are having fun. I used to enjoy the snow when I was young. I cant stand the cold now!!!
Hello dear friend, How have you been lately?
Just seeing this photo I was frozen.
I wonder, how you are able to warm your house with these weather conditions? Do you have a burning diesel calefaction or electric system?
you are totally right, covid is alive, we must take care of ourselves, now more than ever.
Yes it is very cold here. -15C and we heat with methane commonly called natural gas here.
Or both! Then you can have the best of both. I have actually never had a grilled roast beef and cheese. I am sure that it is good. After all: Roast Beef! Where could you go wrong there?
Flying by on a snowmobile used to be fun, although I am pretty sure my speed/their speed are nothing alike. We just don't get enough snow here to own one.
Diagonal! I call it the Mother Cut. That is how mom used to cut it. Is there any other way that counts?
That's a new one to me, Denise!
😂😂😂The Mother Cutter!🔪🥪
That's nice that your orchids have some buds! Only one of mine is flowering this year. I think mine got watered a bit differently for a bit but they look healthy enough. It looks very cold over there and I thought it had been a bit cold here but it looks like nothing in comparison.
Love that photograph and view looking out the dining room window! Good thing you can hunker down and not venture out if you don't want to! @old-guy-photos
⛷Snowmobiling looks like a ton of fun but a hard pass to waterskiing in those temperatures. There's always that one daredevil showoff!🏂❄
Congratulations on your orchid's buds and fingers crossed for a stunning bunch of botanicals!!!🌸
Those are some yummy looking sammies you served up! 😋🥪🧀
The first photo caught my eyes, it is beautiful. Ya, I remember you have told me about your orchids, but good to see you will see some flowers soon. I still have one orchid which is giving me flowers among 6 plants.
Here people are not talking about Covid or thinking about Covid... Omicron is here too but people are dealing with Russia Usa now :D
